    Perhaps the greatest mythological tradition ever: "The Rich Heritage of Norse Mythology: Journey to Asgard: Discovering the Deities and Sagas of Norse Mythology." It offers the opportunity to really delve into that fabulous realm of Norse legend, where heroes, gods, and cosmic forces blur into a presentation of stories that have had enduring significance and breathtaking grandeur. 
    The book begins with the backgrounds of existence in the primordial nothingness of Ginnungagap, set behind the unifying axes of the mighty Yggdrasil. The Norse universe is created and understood through the actions and fates of its gods Odin, Thor, Freyja, and Loki, who are the Æsir and Vanir. Learn these cosmic characters for their expressions of universal knowledge, love, chaos, and courage through telling and perceptive analyses. 
    For instance, the book can prove its cultural and historical importance for such immortal stories by describing in bold legendary sagas, be they from Sigurd's chivalry to the horror cycles of the Völsunga saga. It does so even as it tries to probe at the horrific happenings of Ragnarök while revealing the cyclical dynamics of Norse cosmology characterized by destruction and renewal. 
    This will provide readers with an appreciation of how the myths arose and what elements of them are actually valid, through the discussions of such cultural, historical, and spiritual contexts that defined these myths. In connoisseur or novice to Norse mythology, this richly detailed journey to Asgard is sure to captivate, educate, and inspire as the complex legacy of the legendary culture brings to life today.

    “A beautiful blend of folklore, botanical science, acquired wisdom, and spiritual guidance.” —from the foreword by Luisah Teish   “If you want to learn about the reciprocal spiritual connection between humans and trees, you’re going to love this beautiful book.” —Tess Whitehurst, author of The Magic of Trees   Reclaiming traditional botanical and herbal practices has never been more important than it is today. So much of our future depends on our ability to use ancient earth knowledge. In this crucially important book, author Stephanie Rose Bird recounts the story of the sacred wood: how to live in it, learn from it, and derive spiritual enrichment from it, as well as how to preserve and protect it. The Healing Tree offers functional, accessible recipes, remedies, and rituals derived from a variety of African and African American traditions to serve mind, body, soul, and spirit.The Healing Tree celebrates the forest: its powers, spirits, magic, medicine, and mysteries. Bird shares how trees have provided her with personal healing, then allows us to share in that process for our own benefit. Bird’s book follows her own personal journey, but Africa is always her touchstone—the persistent and tenacious ancestral mother wisdom and spiritual foundation that refuses to fade away. The Healing Tree preserves this knowledge, presenting it as relevant and viable and demonstrating in intimate detail how vestiges of that knowledge took root in the Western Hemisphere, in African American culture, and more broadly in American culture in general.   Previously published as A Healing Grove, this updated edition includes a new preface by the author and a source guide for the botanicals discussed within.

    The days of a secure and peaceful future are over. Man is on the brink of a new world filled with danger, adventure, and a potential threat from an artificial intelligence unlike anything ever seen. 
     
    The world we live in is on the cusp of a dangerous new era: the emergence of intelligent artificial systems, or “agents”, that will profoundly reshape humanity’s relationship with technology. We will explore the murky landscape ahead, and seek to uncover the future of mankind’s relationship with these revolutionary new technologies. 
     
    Advancements in artificial intelligence are happening faster than ever before, and with them comes a potential risk unseen in the history of digital technology. We explore the implications of this rapid development, from extreme wealth disparity to cyber–security threats, and examine how these systems might impact the lives of citizens everywhere. At the center of this book stands the ethical dilemma posed by these agents: how can we ensure that our choices respect and protect our values, interests, and communities? 
     
    This is just the beginning. As we venture deeper into this new, complex, and sometimes intimidating world, you will witness stunning stories of amazing innovations and emerging opportunities that promise to change our lives forever. From artificial intelligence and its associated robotic hardware, to the advocates and opponents of these remarkable creations, this book promises to be an eye-opening exploration of the world that’s to come.

    This books deals with reprogramming of mind first by understanding how does human mind work. How it generate thoughts, and how are negative thoughts generated. The author chanced upon this process and methodology while being on a spiritual exploration since 2015. He travelled to the Himalayas met some great Yogis and discovered some places with great vibrations. He experienced many out of time and space experiences, which also graced him with a steady state of calmness in his mind. Almost a state where negative thoughts cease to flow. Mind tamed finally, he analysed the whole journey and found how he got processed through this and reached a state of calmness. He started teaching meditation in Europe since 2018 in few countries till 2020, when he had to return to India. He made some videos on YouTube and his channel took off in May 2020, and now there are 24k subscribers and 4.2 Million views till date. 67 videos in all. Finally it was time to document the entire method ot philosophy through a book. I hope this book will eventually open you up and lead to your transformation if practised sincerely with consistency. Though initially it may appear to be tough to understand.
