Book excerpt: Thousands of years ago, Polynesian voyagers discovered and settled Nanumea atoll, a tiny cluster of coral islets in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The community prospered, first evolving into a traditional culture finely tuned to the atolls limited environment and then weathering new changes imposed by missionaries, colonial officials, and Westernization itself. Now one of eight separate island communities comprising the modern Pacific nation of Tuvalu, Nanumea faces new challenges: rising sea levels, globalization, and massive social and economic changes. Using personal stories that evoke the difficulties and excitement of fieldwork, Keith and Anne Chambers draw on more than twenty-five years of ethnographic research in Nanumea to craft an engaging account of Nanumean culture and social organization. Readers will come to appreciate how the communitys intense sharing obligations, service-oriented chieftainship, and a flexible system of extensive kinship reckoning define a lifestyle that differs fundamentally from modern Western society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Sobornost, the Russian word for "unity," you'll learn how your heart can be softened and opened to the transforming reality of the Holy Trinity dwelling within you. Catherine guides us along the pathway that takes us home, to God's house, into the grace intimacy of eternal belonging; to a place that is hard to get to, yet one that lives within and beyond the ever-present confusion, fear and loneliness of our daily existence. She takes us by the hand, becomes our companion on the ultimate journey--into an experience of the mysterious depths of intimacy in, through, and with God. Here we rediscover the final unity in the wellspring of compassion that flows from divine Persons, one in love, a union of Lover, Beloved, and Love --Father, Son and Spirit. The unselfish life is reclaimed, one that discovers abundant life with God and thus within the soul, within nature, within interpersonal relations, within the cosmos. "Sparks' fly from the pages, igniting a response in the heart of one open to the charism of such a spiritual person as the author. An inspirational spiritual work much needed today." Father George Maloney, "It is a very satisfying experience to read any of Catherine's books, and this is her best." - Our Sunday Visitor

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "Unity of the Heart" Peter Borys, Jr. presents a multidimensional mystical anthropology and transformation that forms a spirituality of the heart. A heart-centered consciousness opens the way to living a new vision of mystical transformation and spiritual creativity. Borys develops this new vision where we live from a transcendent consciousness in our everyday life of relationships, intention, creativity, and work in the world. The book supports our pathway to experience the meditative awareness, relational self-giving, and intention of the heart-based consciousness. Within the heart, we can seamlessly express our nonlocal and nondual mystic self as a community of being within the universe. The awakening of a consciousness of the heart unites the sciences and the mystic way to form a spiritual-scientific view of our multidimensional humanity and spiritual cosmology. Within the new vision, personal transformation to the true self in Divine unity becomes part of the evolution to an enlightened humanity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential collection of writings, bursting with Henry Miller’s exhilarating candor and wisdom In this selection of stories and essays, Henry Miller elucidates, revels, and soars, showing his command over a wide range of moods, styles, and subject matters. Writing “from the heart,” always with a refreshing lack of reticence, Miller involves the reader directly in his thoughts and feelings. “His real aim,” Karl Shapiro has written, “is to find the living core of our world whenever it survives and in whatever manifestation, in art, in literature, in human behavior itself. It is then that he sings, praises, and shouts at the top of his lungs with the uncontainable hilarity he is famous for.” Here are some of Henry Miller’s best-known writings: an essay on the photographer Brassai; “Reflections on Writing,” in which Miller examines his own position as a writer; “Seraphita” and “Balzac and His Double,” on the works of other writers; and “The Alcoholic Veteran,” “Creative Death,” “The Enormous Womb,” and “The Philosopher Who Philosophizes.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vision to address our environment, economy, politics, culture, and to catalyze the radical whole-system change we need now Recasting current problems as emergent opportunities, Terry Patten offers creative responses, practices, and conscious conversations for tackling the profound inner and outer work we must do to build an integral future. In practical and personal terms, he discusses how we can all become active agents of a transformation of human civilization and why that is necessary to our continued survival. Patten's narrative focuses on two aspects of existence--our dynamic but fractured and threatened world, and our underlying wholeness and unity. Only by honoring both of these realities simultaneously can we make sustainable changes in ourselves, our communities, our body politic, and our planetary life-support system. A New Republic of the Heart provides a comprehensive understanding and inspiring vision for "being the change" in a way that can address the most intractable problems of our time. Patten shows how we can come together in our communities for conversations that matter and describes new communities, enterprises, and forms of dialogue that integrate both inner personal growth work with outer awareness, activism, and service.
