  Manifesting Justice - Wrongly...

  Valena Beety, Koa Beck

  When Valena Beety first became a federal prosecutor, her goal was to protect victims, especially women, from cycles of violence. What she discovered was that not only did prosecutions often fail to help victims, they frequently relied on false information, forensic fraud, and police and prosecutor misconduct. 
   
   
    
  Seeking change, Beety began working in the Innocence Movement, helping to free factually innocent people through DNA testing and criminal justice reform. Manifesting Justice focuses on the shocking story of Beety's client Leigh Stubbs—a young, queer woman in Mississippi, convicted of a horrific crime she did not commit because of her sexual orientation. Beety weaves Stubbs's harrowing narrative through the broader story of a broken criminal justice system. 
   
   
    
  Drawing on interviews with both innocence advocates and wrongfully convicted women, along with Beety's own experiences as an expert litigator and a queer woman, Manifesting Justice provides a unique outsider/insider perspective. Beety expands our notion of justice to include not just people who are factually innocent, but those who are over-charged, pressured into bad plea deals, and over-sentenced. The result is a riveting and timely book that will transform our very ideas of crime and punishment, what innocence is, and who should be free.

  Anarchism: What It Really Stands...

  Emma Goldman (1869 – 1940) was an anarchist political activist and writer. She played a pivotal role in the development of anarchist political philosophy in North America and Europe in the first half of the 20th century. 
  In this essay, (1910) Goldman sets forth her interpretation of the ideology of anarchism. Like most anarchists, she was highly idealistic; believing that human nature was inherently good, she was convinced that a state of absolute freedom would maximize human happiness and productivity. Here she enumerates the many constraints — including religion, property, law and government — that she sees as limiting the individual's liberty. She claims that anarchism stands for a social order based on the free grouping of individuals for the purpose of producing real social wealth, an order that will guarantee to every human being free access to the earth and full enjoyment of the necessities of life.

  Beyond Death - Real Ghosts &...

  “When we die first we are taken to task by Yamaraj the Lord of death and taken to one of the twenty eight hellish planets to be punished before being put into a new body in the next life” Srimad Bhagavatam 
   
  "Those who are attached to their family, house, village or country do not receive a gross body made of material elements but remain in a subtle body, composed of mind, ego, and intelligence. Those who live in such subtle bodies are called ghosts. This ghostly position is very painful because a ghost has intelligence, mind, and ego and wants to enjoy material life, but because he doesn’t have a gross material body, he can only create disturbances for want of material satisfaction." A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada 
   
  Death - it comes to us all. it is a sacrifice for the good life we lead at the end of our long fortuitous road. Or is it? For millenniums the yogis of India following the ancient Vedic path have clearly spoken about what we call in the west- life after death. To the unenlightened materialist, life begins with birth and ends with the final inevitable dissolution of the gross material body. But to the enlightened ones ordinary life and death are seen as nothing extraordinary - and at most the unclouded end of the infinite beginning. It is true that some of the more virtuous and godly among us may escape the never-ending wheel of repeated birth and death however most are commanded to return to this material world by the process of reincarnation, or if they are exceptionally unlucky hover around this gross material sphere for untold eons as homeless, restless, disembodied, hopeless, spirits. It is of these unfortunate souls to whom we address this unique audiobook. Here for the first time is the secret yoga of the ghostly realms directly from the ancient Vedic sastras of spiritual India.

  Hypnosis - Unlocking the Power...

  Hypnosis has long captured the imagination of people worldwide. From ancient shamanic rituals to modern therapeutic practices, the concept of influencing the subconscious mind has evolved significantly. But what is hypnosis, and why does it hold such intrigue? This chapter sets the stage for an exploration of hypnosis, dispelling myths, uncovering truths, and providing a foundation for understanding its power and potential.  
    
  At its core, hypnosis is a state of focused attention and heightened suggestibility, often accompanied by deep relaxation. Contrary to popular belief, hypnosis is not about losing control or being at the mercy of someone else’s will. Instead, it is a collaborative process in which the subject actively engages with their subconscious mind. Hypnosis allows access to a realm of untapped potential within us, where behaviors, emotions, and even memories reside.  
    
  One of the most persistent myths surrounding hypnosis is its portrayal as mystical or magical. Popular culture has often depicted hypnotists as enigmatic figures wielding a pendulum to control unsuspecting subjects. These dramatizations have fueled skepticism and fear, overshadowing the scientific principles that underpin hypnosis. Understanding hypnosis requires recognizing that it is a natural phenomenon deeply rooted in human psychology and neuroscience.
