The Kybalion - A Study of The...

Initiates Three

Since 1908, The Kybalion has served as a study of basic Hermetic teachings that outline an ageless wisdom and touch upon the inner workings of nature. In ancient times and even today, these teachings were not understood by the lay person, but were readily understood by students after the axioms and principles had been explained and exemplified by the Hermetic Initiates and Masters to their Neophytes. An occult classic, this edition of The Kybalion is prefaced with an intriguing and thought-provoking foreword by Summum. 
''The purpose of this work is not the enunciation of any special philosophy or doctrine, but rather is to give to the students a statement of the Truth that will serve to reconcile the many bits of occult knowledge that they may have acquired, but which are apparently opposed to each other and which often serve to discourage and disgust the beginner in the study. Our intent is not to erect a new Temple of Knowledge, but rather to place in the hands of the student a Master-Key with which he may open the many inner doors in the Temple of Mystery through the main portals he has already entered.'' -- The Kybalion

The Jesuits in the United States...

S.J. David J. Collins

The history of America cannot be told without the history of religion, the history of American religion cannot be told without the history of Catholicism, and the history of Catholicism in America cannot be told without the history of Jesuits in America. 
 
 
 
Jesuits in the United States offers a panoramic overview of the Jesuit order in the United States from the colonial era to the present. David J. Collins, SJ, describes the development of the Jesuit order in the US against the background of American religious, cultural, and social history. He covers the papacy's suppression of the order and its restoration period. The author also compares Jesuit activities in the US to those in Europe and, by the twentieth century, to those around the world, as the political and religious connections between the US and the world, especially Latin America, grow. Collins also reflects on the future of the order in light of its past. 
 
 
 
Listeners familiar with the Jesuit tradition and those who are new to it will learn from this book's distinctive and modern perspective—using twenty-first century scholarship on Jesuit slaveholding, the sexual abuse crisis, and other contemporary issues—on 500 years of Jesuit history in the United States.

Grit & Magic - A Mother's Story...

Melanie Herz Promecene

Is it possible to stay hopeful - and to keep a sense of humor - while your deepest desire is threatened? When you're falsely accused? When people you trust advise you to hide your heritage? 
Melanie Herz Promecene, who faced each of those challenges while trying to adopt a child, is walking proof that the answer is yes. 
In this staggeringly honest, often hilarious, always hopeful memoir, Promecene takes readers with her through the terror of 9/11 in New York, the floods of Hurricane Harvey in Houston, the winding streets of Beijing, and a beautiful day in Florence. And, of course, readers join her as she overcomes seemingly impossible obstacles of bureaucracy and biology. 
Her account of heartbreaking decisions, innocent misunderstandings that threaten to have devastating results, and the quirks and joy of her own large family are compelling and ultimately heartwarming. 
Along the way, she realizes that she and her husband aren't choosing their son: He is choosing them. You'll never look at rainbows the same way.

Compassionate Listening - The...

Esther Jameson

Compassionate listening is an art that involves fully engaging with another person’s words, emotions, and underlying experiences. At its core, it goes beyond simply hearing someone speak; it is a deep, intentional act of understanding. It is about listening with the heart as much as with the ears, which requires a unique combination of patience, presence, and empathy. 
To practice compassionate listening, the first step is to give the speaker our undivided attention. In today’s world, where distractions are constant, the act of truly focusing on the speaker can be revolutionary. This means setting aside your phone, shutting off mental distractions, and focusing solely on the other person. It may sound simple, but it is often a challenge, especially when our minds are preoccupied with our own thoughts, tasks, or judgments. 
Equally important is the ability to listen with empathy. This involves not only understanding the words being spoken but also feeling and acknowledging the emotions behind them. Empathetic listening allows us to connect with others on a deeper level. It creates a sense of trust and comfort for the speaker, as they feel understood and valued. When we truly listen, we show others that their thoughts and feelings matter, fostering an environment where open communication can flourish.
