Synopsis

Tundra Waves Hunt explores the complex intersection of history, politics, and indigenous rights through the lens of Chukchi whaling in the Russian Arctic. It examines how this centuries-old tradition navigates modern legal frameworks and conservation efforts. The book highlights the crucial role of whaling in Chukchi cultural identity and subsistence, while also analyzing the evolution of regulations from the Soviet era to the present day. A key insight is the ongoing political negotiations between indigenous communities, Russian authorities, and international organizations like the IWC, concerning sustainable resource management. The book adopts an interdisciplinary approach, integrating anthropology, law, and environmental science to provide a holistic understanding. It moves chronologically, starting with the cultural and historical context, then examining Soviet-era regulations, and finally focusing on post-Soviet legislative changes and international influences. The book argues for a balanced approach that respects both indigenous rights and conservation goals, emphasizing the need to incorporate traditional ecological knowledge alongside scientific data.

    "The absolute last word on this fascinating subject! Das explains everything you need to know about reincarnation via the teachings of his guru Bhaktivedanta Swami. Five stars!" Yoga Journal 
     
    Throughout history, some of the most thoughtful minds have advocated that life does not end with the death of our body, but continues via a process known as reincarnation. 
     
    The Vedic literature of India advocates that the soul, or atma, gives life to the body. Life does not arise from a particular combination of material elements as some modern scientists theorize. At the time of death, we leave one body and enter a new one. That is called reincarnation. 
     
    The concept is not as alien as it might seem. We can observe we change from one body to another throughout our lifetime. Our body at birth is completely different from our adult body. Yet throughout these changes, the conscious self remains the same. Similarly, the conscious self remains the same at death and transfers from one body to the next in the cycle of reincarnation. 
    Our present body is the result of a long series of actions and reactions in previous lives. The law that governs this is known as karma: every action has a reaction. Our previous actions have produced our present body, and our current actions will determine our next body. 
     
    Only in the human form can we free ourselves from the endless cycle of reincarnation, of birth and death, by re-establishing our eternal, loving relationship with Lord Krishna. As Krishna states in Bhagavad Gita “From the highest planet in the material world down to the lowest, all are places of misery wherein repeated birth and death take place. But one attains to My abode.. never takes birth again.” 
     
    Here in this unique audiobook, are the ancient secrets of reincarnation from a 50-year devotee of the Vedas and devotional yoga. A rare mystical audiobook adventure.

    “Burning Horizon reminds us how British and American servicemen and women train together, learn together, and, when called upon, fight together to defeat threats to our common values.” -General James N. Mattis, US Marine Corps (retired)Codenamed Operation Telic, the British component of the invasion of Iraq in 2003 was the largest gathering of British troops since the Second World War.  While the British public prepared for the worst as its soldiers were facing weapons of mass destruction, most servicemen and women were under no illusion that they were invading Iraq to rid the people of Saddam Hussein.  While much has been said about WMD and Tony Blair's government, not nearly enough has been heard from those men and women that took part in Operation Telic. Based upon dozens of veteran interviews, personal diaries and archival material, this book tells their stories, in their own words.  From controlling the vast Allied Air Forces at 34,000 feet in an AWACS plane down to submariners beneath the warm waves of the Persian Gulf firing Tomahawk Cruise missiles, from the steaming hot turret of a Challenger Tank as it is peppered with RPGs, to being on your belly in a sandstorm disarming unexploded bombs — these veteran accounts cover the whole spectrum of experiences.  Polarized public opinion and the post-war media portrayal of the war has detracted from what was achieved by these forces, when tasked to do so, often with insufficient or inadequate resources. These are their stories of courage, fortitude, pride, and brotherhood amidst the harsh realities of modern asymmetric warfare.

    'The essence of this bliss was to walk by yourself in the black night, the slide shut, the top-coat buttoned, not a ray escaping, whether to conduct your footsteps or to make your glory public – a mere pillar of darkness in the dark; and all the while, deep down in the privacy of your fool's heart, to know you had a bull's-eye at your belt, and to exult and sing over the knowledge.'
    
    One of Robert Louis Stevenson's bestselling works of his time, 'The Lantern Bearers' is a charming essay on the joys underlying realist literature.
    
    Sometimes mistakenly taken as a fictional narrative, the essay begins with three boys – of which Stevenson is one – who reside in a seaside town during the summer. Stevenson describes the various splendours of existence in the town, such as fishing, tide pools and the open sea air. The three boys begin a nighttime ritual in which they attach lanterns to their belts, hidden by their overcoats, meandering in the dark and engaging in discussions only for their own ears – a simple, but profound source of pleasure. It becomes an allegory for the importance of romance in realism; why writers ought to seek where joy lies in the everyday. This audiobook edition is brilliantly read by Robin Laing.
    Robert Louis Stevenson (1850 – 1894) was a Scottish novelist, poet and travel writer. Best known for his novels Treasure Island and Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, his worked spanned from romance and adventure writing to gothic dark realism. He remains one of the most translated authors in the world.
