  Break Through the Limits of the Brain connects the dots between the discoveries of neuroscience and the meditation-born spiritual experience, and offers proven ways to tap into our superconscious potential. 
   
   
   
  Joseph Selbie explores the current neuroscientific understanding of the brain's dismaying degree of life-controlling influence on our thoughts, emotions, and behavior, and balances that understanding with neuroscience's discoveries of neuroplasticity and our innate ability to rewire the brain for any new purpose. 
   
   
   
  Break Through the Limits of the Brain delves into the scientific support for the existence of a subtle, nonlocal reality that strongly suggests that we exist simultaneously in both a subtle and a physical reality—and that our thoughts, life force, emotions, and memories originate nonlocally. 
   
   
   
  Meditation is a central theme of the book—what it is; how to do it; why it works; its physical, mental, and emotional benefits as measured by neuroscientists; and how it rewires the brain for superconscious awareness. 
   
   
   
  The book offers proven practices for bringing superconscious awareness into one's life for success, energy, health, peace of mind, and happiness.

  Is it possible to renew the mind? - 24 May 1967 
  • When the mind is living through imagination and thought, it is incapable of 
  living in the complete fullness of the present. 
  • Thought has created time, not chronological time but psychological time. That 
  is, ‘I will be,’ ‘I should be.’ 
  • Is it possible for the brain to be quiet, to give an interval between the old and 
  the new? This interval is the timeless nature in which thought cannot possibly 
  enter. 
  • That which has continuity is repetitive, which is time. It’s only when time 
  comes to an end there is something new taking place. 
  • To die every day to every problem, every pleasure, and not carry over any 
  problem at all; so the mind remains tremendously attentive, active, clear. 
  • Since love is not desire or pleasure, how does one come upon it? 
  • Q: Is the feeling of responsibility a part of the order and discipline you were 
  talking about? 
  • Q: Why don’t people get angry with what you are saying?

  Banned Books – A Doll’s House + Common Sense brings together two groundbreaking works that reshaped modern thought, challenged social norms, and sparked cultural revolutions. This dual‑volume release pairs Henrik Ibsen’s iconic drama A Doll’s House with Thomas Paine’s fiery political manifesto Common Sense, offering listeners a powerful journey through ideas that once shook the world. 
   
  In A Doll’s House, Ibsen exposes the constraints placed on women in 19th‑century society through the story of Nora Helmer, a wife and mother who begins to question the roles imposed upon her. The play’s bold critique of marriage, gender expectations, and personal freedom made it one of the most controversial works of its time. 
   
  In Common Sense, Thomas Paine delivers a passionate argument for American independence, written in clear, direct language that ignited a political movement. His call for liberty, self‑governance, and the rejection of monarchy became one of the most influential texts of the American Revolution. 
   
  Together, these works highlight the enduring power of banned and challenged literature — stories and ideas that refuse to remain silent. 
  Perfect for listeners who enjoy classic literature, political philosophy, feminist history, and culturally significant works that continue to inspire debate today.

  The History of the Decline and...

  The History of The Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, a major literary achievement of the 18th century published in six volumes, was written by the celebrated English historian Edward Gibbon. Volume I was published in 1776, and went through six printings (a remarkable feat for its time). Volumes II and III were published in 1781; volumes IV, V, VI in 1788-89. The original volumes were published as quartos, a common publishing practice of the time.The books cover the period of the Roman Empire after Marcus Aurelius, from just before 180 to 1453 and beyond, concluding in 1590. They take as their material the behaviour and decisions that led to the decay and eventual fall of the Roman Empire in the East and West, offering an explanation for why the Roman Empire fell.Gibbon is sometimes called the first “modern historian of ancient Rome.” By virtue of its mostly objective approach and highly accurate use of reference material, Gibbon’s work was adopted as a model for the methodologies of 19th and 20th century historians.

  Read by the author, Dragged Up Proppa is the story of growing up working class in a forgotten England.'Very compelling, beautifully written memoir of a time and England that no longer exists but remains just as important today as ever' – Sebastian Payne, author of Broken HeartlandsPip Fallow was born in the coal-miner’s cottage where his family of eight lived, in a village near Durham. Pip was destined to join his father down the pit, but the closure of his village’s mine in the 1980s saw him at the back of the dole queue like the rest. This is Pip’s story of being ‘dragged up proppa’, living by his wits, working and travelling the world – before finally settling a few miles from where he grew up.A lot has been written about the red wall in recent years, but Pip Fallow has lived it. This is his account of some of the most important issues affecting Britain today – from levelling-up and the north-south divide, to social mobility and class, and the devastating social upheaval caused by decades of deindustrialization and government neglect. He shows how broken promises of the past impact his village and the politics of today.This is the memoir of a man who left school illiterate, but has now written a book. The story of a lost generation who were prepared for a life that had disappeared by the time they were ready for it, of communities with once strong social ties that have now disintegrated, and a way of living that simply no longer exists in Britain today.'Fallow's memoir is not just a classic piece of working-class writing, but a truly gripping narrative' – Brian Groom, author of Northerners: A History
