Observing an encounter between Catholic and Buddhist monks in 1996 at the Abbey of Gethsemani, near where he grew up in rural Kentucky, Fenton Johnson found himself unable to make the sign of the cross.

Impelled by this troubling experience, Johnson began a search for the meaning of the spiritual life.

In October 2007, a new phenomenon appeared in the sky, was named the Comet Holmes, and is being claimed and acclaimed by the Hopi Nation as the Blue Star of their prophecy. The Blue Star is the harbinger. Between now and somewhere in 2013-2014, when the Red Star appears, great shifts in human consciousness will continue. With the fulfillment of the Mayan Long Count calendar in 2012 and the appearance of the Red Star, many are predicting that human consciousness will rise to the next level.

Suicide rates among Army soldiers increased 80 percent between 2004 and 2008, according to a recent report published in Injury Prevention. In the last several years, the number of soldiers returning from the Middle East with mental and physical wounds has continued to climb.

It is therefore critical that we address this emerging public-health problem."

The prolific writings of Kahlil Gibran, author of The Prophet, continue to inspire a devoted international following and have transformed modern Arabic literature. In this volume of early writings, Gibran’s simple yet lyrical style crosses from prose to poetry and yields insight into his dedication and inner vision of beauty, including the tale of a strange hermit in “The Tempest”, the discovery of love lost to war in “The Mermaids”, and the long voyage of sea and soul in the prose poem “Between Night and Morn”.

A recent Newsweek poll reports that 76 percent of Americans believe in heaven. Yet even avid believers have difficulty conjuring up more than vague images of halos, harps, and wispy angels in flowing robes.

Using the Bible as his guide, he notes that heaven is not only a spiritual place, but also a physical place.

The publication of The Woman's Bible in 1895 and 1898 represented the feminist pioneer's last strike at the roots of the ideology behind her gender's subordinate role in society.

“Per me, maturità è un altro nome per definire la realizzazione: giungere al pieno compimento del tuo potenziale. Ti sei realizzato: il seme è giunto al termine del lungo viaggio ed è fiorito. La maturità ha una fragranza. Dona all’individuo un’incredibile bellezza, gli dona intelligenza, l’affila al massimo. Lo rende pura amorevolezza: la sua azione è amore, la sua inazione è amore; la sua vita è amore, la sua morte è amore. Non è altro che un fiore d’amore.”
