The Little Guide To Greater Glory And A Happier Life


Sri M. - 2013
    His uniqueness lies not only in the fact that at the young age of 19 and a half, he travelled to snow clad Himalayas from Kerala, and there he met and lived for several years with a ‘real-time’ yogi, Babaji, but also that he should undertake such an unusual and adventurous exploration, given his non-Hindu birth and antecedents.The metamorphosis of Mumtaz Ali Khan into Sri ‘M’, a yogi with profound knowledge of the Upanishads and deep personal insights, born of first hand experiences with higher levels of consciousness is indeed a fascinating story.The bonus for those interested in the secrets of yoga, meditation and sankhyan metaphysics is that Sri ‘M’ is still living and easily reachable. He leads a normal life, married with two children, wears no special robes and conducts himself without pomp or paraphernalia.Someone who met him recently said, “I expected a flashy godman and instead I saw a jean clad gentleman with a smile of his face, ready to discuss my problems. In five minutes flat, I said to myself, this is no ordinary man. The peace and tranquility that enters your system is tangible”.

Raised?: Finding Jesus by Doubting the Resurrection


Jonathan K. Dodson - 2014
    Yet the Bible, Jesus' disciples, and Christians for hundreds of years have claimed that Jesus indeed returned to life after his death and his burial in a stone tomb. With such an incredible assertion at the heart of the Christian faith, should it come as a surprise that some people struggle to believe?Too often Christians look down on those who doubt. But people who don't question their faith can end up abandoning it, and they can miss an opportunity to trust God more deeply. Jesus came to show us a God who is big enough to handle out doubts, a God who compassionately dives deep into our doubts in order to reveal a solution to all injustice.Raised? grapples with the believability of the resurrection. Was it a mass delusion? Did a dead man really come back to life? And if it is true, what difference can such a crazy idea really make in our lives today?Unlike any other book on the resurrection, Raised? encourages you to doubt in order to believe. Jonathan Dodson and Brad Watson don't shy away from the hard questions or settle for easy answers. They help you to see how the resurrection changes everything, offering hope for the future and answers to the life and death questions we all have.

The Ten Commandments: Still the Best Moral Code


Dennis Prager - 2015
    These words changed the world when they were first presented at Mt. Sinai to Israelites, and they are changing it now. They are the foundation stones of Western Civilization.Given their staggering importance, you would think that all societies, and certainly our educational and religious institutions, would be intent on studying them closely. Sadly, this is not the case. Our schools ignore them and our churches and synagogues take them for granted. But here's a simple test: Who among us can even name all of the Ten Commandments? And even among those who can name them, how many can explain them in a way that makes sense to the modern eye and ear?If you are a person of faith, this book will strengthen it; if you are agnostic it will force you to rethink your doubts; if you're atheist, it will test your convictions. For people who have thought little about the Ten Commandments, as well as for those who have a sophisticated understanding of them, it will be a revelation.That's a lot to ask of a little book, but the only thing that's little here is the length. The ideas are very big.
