  The Six Goswamis of Vrindavan was a group of scholars and devotees who lived in Vrindavan during the 16th century. The group consisted of Rupa Goswami, Sanatana Goswami, Jiva Goswami, Gopal Bhatta Goswami, Raghunatha Bhatta Goswami, and Raghunatha Dasa Goswami. They were instrumental in the development of the Gaudiya Vaishnavism tradition and the spread of the Bhakti yoga movement. They were known for their scholarship, devotion, and austere lifestyle, and were revered by the people of Vrindavan and beyond. 
   
  The Six Goswamis of Vrindavan left a lasting impact on the development of Hinduism, particularly the Gaudiya Vaishnavism tradition. They wrote extensively on the philosophy, theology, and practices of Bhakti, and their works continue to be studied and revered by scholars and devotees alike. Their teachings emphasized the importance of devotion to Krishna as the ultimate path to liberation, and their writings provide insight into the practices and rituals of Bhakti, as well as the historical and cultural context of the Bhakti movement. The legacy of the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan continues to inspire and guide those who seek a deeper understanding of the path of devotion.

  Writing the Wisdom - Creative...

  Writing the Wisdom explores the effects and emotional impact that trauma and abuse have on a person's life whilst also bringing together religious, spiritual, pastoral and therapeutic understandings. In a partnership between a church minister and an accredited counsellor, Barbara Glasson and Penny Johnson have used “creative writing for wellbeing” with women survivors of childhood trauma, including organized ritual abuse, a subject that still remains largely hidden from our society.
  
  
   
  The poetry and prose that have been produced during these creative writing workshops may help those who have lived through such devastation to feel less isolated, by giving them the opportunity to read about others' experiences.
  
   
  Writing the Wisdom also explores church practices that are unhelpful for those who have experienced abuse. Language and litany, listening and witnessing, healing, forgiveness and wisdom are all discussed, in the hope of enabling faith communities to look more closely and honestly at our way of life and to be mindful of the difficulties that some survivors of childhood abuse face.

  The Women's March on Versailles...

  In the years leading up to the French Revolution, tensions across France were steadily rising. The burdens of the common people, particularly those of the Third Estate, had reached unbearable levels. While the nobility and clergy enjoyed privileges and wealth, the vast majority of the population struggled under the weight of excessive taxation and economic instability. The inequalities in French society were stark, fueling resentment that would ultimately ignite revolutionary fervor. 
  One of the most pressing concerns for the people of France was the relentless increase in bread prices. As the primary staple of the French diet, bread was essential for survival, yet by 1789, its cost had soared beyond what many could afford. A series of poor harvests, combined with inflation and a flawed taxation system, meant that working-class families were spending nearly all their income just to feed themselves. Women, who were responsible for feeding their households, were particularly affected. Their desperation grew as they saw their children go hungry, pushing them toward direct action against those they held responsible for their suffering. 
  At the same time, the ideas of the Enlightenment had begun to take hold among the people. Thinkers like Rousseau, Voltaire, and Montesquieu had challenged the foundations of monarchy, divine rule, and social inequality. The belief that sovereignty should rest with the people rather than the king inspired many to question the legitimacy of their rulers. These ideas were not confined to intellectual circles; they spread through pamphlets, newspapers, and public gatherings, reaching even the market women and working-class citizens of Paris. For many, the Enlightenment provided not just a critique of the monarchy, but a vision for a new society built on justice and equality.

  On his deathbed, Dr. Joanne Intrator's father poses two unsettling questions: 
   
   
   
  "Are you tough enough? Do they know who you are?" 
   
   
   
  Joanne soon realizes that these haunting questions relate to a center-city Berlin building at 16 Wallstrasse that the Nazis ripped away from her family in 1938. But a decade is to pass before she will fully come to grasp why her father threw down the gauntlet as he did. 
   
   
   
  Repeatedly, Joanne's restitution quest brings her into confrontation with yet another of her profound fears surrounding Germany and the Holocaust. Having to call on reserves of strength she's unsure she possesses, the author leans into her professional command of psychiatry, often overcoming flabbergasting obstacles perniciously dumped in her path. 
   
   
   
  The depth and lucidity of psychological insight threaded throughout Summons to Berlin makes it an attention-grabbing standout among books on like topics. As a listener, you'll come away delighted to know just who Dr. Joanne Intrator is. You'll also finish the book cheering for her, because in the end, she proves far more than tough enough to satisfy her father's unnerving final demands.
