A Conversation Between AH Almaas...

A. H. Almaas, MD Daniel Siegel

Two Pioneers of Science and Spirit Expand the Frontiers of UnderstandingFor centuries, science and philosophy have drawn clear borders: scientists focused on the physical world, and philosophers studied the spiritual. Today that wall is coming down, thanks to innovative teachers like A. H. Almaas and Dr. Daniel Siegel, and the free flow of ideas and information has created a new renaissance of wisdom. On October 19, 2013, these two modern luminaries engaged in a conversation created to spark new ideas and insights about the nature of the mind and soul, the relationship between consciousness and the brain, and the mystery of personal transformation.Now you can experience this extraordinary meeting between A. H. Almaas, the creator of the breakthrough spiritual practice The Diamond Approach, and interpersonal neurobiologist Dr. Daniel Siegel, author of The Mindful Brain. In this daylong conversation, Siegel and Almaas investigate both the convergence and contrasts of spiritual and scientific ways of knowing ourselves. Focusing on the nature of personal transformation and the unfolding of identity, their wide-ranging discussion covers three major themes:Part One: The Mind and the Soul  •  The soul and the mind—how they are understood by both spiritual traditions and the latest neuroscience  •  The relationship between Being, Essence, the brain, and consciousness  •  How the mind relates to the brain, and the far-reaching implications of neuroplasticity—the ability of the mind to change our neural tissue  •  Why the soul is no longer off-limits to scientific inquiryPart Two: Self, Relationships, and Well-Being  •  What is the self and how does it develop?  •  How a sense of self emerges in life, in our relationships, and throughout development  •  How relational and psychological trauma impair the development of well-being and the unfolding of inner knowing across one's lifespan  •  The role of interpersonal and close, intimate relationships in the development of our identity  •The therapeutic-patient and student-teacher relationships—how these two models for wisdom transmission overlap and inform each otherPart Three: The Mystery of Transformation  •  What science and traditions say about the need for and nature of spiritual growth  •  The nature of meditation and how spiritual practices and scientific studies perceive the process of inner reflection  •  How fixed personality traits like narcissism or greed influence personal well-being and spiritual growth  •  What are the fundamental shared and contrasted views from science and spirituality on the nature of transformation?  •  Are there goals for transformation? If so, what are they?  •  How can we live a life of compassion, kindness, and discovery in the face of everyday stress and global change?

Take to the Trees - A Story of...

Marguerite Holloway

Journalist Marguerite Holloway arrives at the Women's Tree Climbing Workshop as a climbing novice, but with a passion for trees and a deep concern about their future. Run by twin sister tree doctors Bear LeVangie and Melissa LeVangie Ingersoll, the workshop helps people develop impressive technical skills and ascend into the canopy. As Holloway tackles unfamiliar equipment and dizzying heights, she learns about the science of trees and tells the stories of charismatic species, including hemlock, aspen, Atlantic white cedar, oak, and beech. She spotlights experts who are chronicling the great dying that is underway in forests around the world as trees face simultaneous and accelerating threats from drought, heat, floods, disease, and other disruptions. 
 
 
 
As she climbs, Holloway also comes to understand the profound significance of trees in her relationship with her late mother and brother. The book's rousing final chapter offers something new: a grander environmental and arboreal optimism, in which the story of trees and their resilience meshes with that of people working to steward the forests of the future, and of community found among fellow tree climbers. A lyrical work of memoir and reportage, Take to the Trees sounds the alarm about rapid arboreal decline while also offering hope about how we might care for our forests and ourselves.

The TR-3B Black Manta - What is...

Martin K. Ettington

The TR-3B, or Black Manta, or Astra is one of the most fascinating potentially top secret aircraft ever created by the United States military. 
The big reason for this is that this craft is supposed to use anti-gravity technology. This technology is discussed a lot in this book. 
Also, what other evidence is there for the existence of this craft? There are lots of unknowns here but there are also enough pictures of this aircraft that you can’t just discount sightings as being something else which the observers misinterpreted. 
There are even anti-gravity patents by US government researchers which might be applicable to the reality of the TR-3B. 
Overall, the existence of this craft is a huge mystery which still needs exploration and solutions to what it really is. 
This is what I’m trying to do in this book.
