Book excerpt: When meditation master and author Ken Mellor had a life-changing experience at 13, he had no idea where it would take him. In Urban Mystic: Discovering the transcendent through everyday life, he describes his amazing journey to spiritual awakening. Mellor's story takes you from Melbourne, Australia to the United States, India, England, Switzerland, and Germany. You'll meet psychotherapists, healers, astrologers, and many others. You will participate in fantastic experiences with masters of meditation and spiritual enlightenment-a Siddha Master, Tantric Master, Vedic Master, and a "Divine Mother." Mellor's intriguing and compelling narrative prompts self-discovery, and offers inspiration to dwell in the moment in order to awaken the soul to extraordinary transformations. Your reading will encourage you to embrace living, to cope with life's ups and downs, and to advance your own spiritual awakening. Learn to celebrate how new beginnings, hopes, dreams, successes, mistakes, and challenges are all part of your unique destiny. "An amazing odyssey from the everyday to the spirit - and back again! - that reads like the true adventure it is. I was glad to be part of it and you will be too." -Stephen Karcher, prolific author in the fields of comparative mythology, divination, and religious experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To those without time or inclination for intensive spiritual reading and study, this handbook is a find! The work is firmly grounded in Scripture and Christian teachings on growth through contemplation. The wisdom of St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross has been distilled to help us understand the stages and experiences of the inner journey. The reader is guided through the classic works of these time-tested directors, in a logical, easily understood fashion. Enlightenment, encouragement, and energy are drawn from these pages, and a sense of adventure beckons the reader to new perspectives. For over a quarter century the author, married and mother of eight, has been nourished by these masters and by the way of life of the Secular Order of Discalced Carmelites. Drawing on her experience in counseling and teaching contemplative meditation, she meets the need for a practical modern guidebook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although each generation searches for effective ways to be salt and light, Elaine Heath argues that the church is currently in an especially difficult place--a dark night of the soul. She calls the church to embrace, rather than ignore, its difficulties and find different ways of doing outreach. Heath brings a fresh perspective to the theory and practice of evangelism by approaching it through contemplative spirituality. By looking to mystics, saints, and martyrs of church history--such as Ignatius of Loyola, Julian of Norwich, St. Francis, John Wesley, Mother Theresa, and Henri Nouwen--she suggests we can discover ways of thinking about God that result in a life of outreach.

Book excerpt: Some people find God by living in harmony with the rhythms of nature, others by the practice of specific meditations and prayers. For some, the way is beauty, creativity, love, devotion, study, or service. Just as many rivers lead to the sea, there are many paths to God. Each of the seven primary energy centers of the human body—the chakras—corresponds to a specific path. In this book, those paths are outlined, complete with spiritual exercises, giving you, the reader, a sense of the most fruitful direction for your journey.
