Larry Rosenberg
This book presents the Buddhist approach to facing the inevitable facts of growing older, getting sick, and dying. These touch realities are not given much attention by many people until midlife, when they become harder to avoid. Using a Buddhist text known as the Five Subjects for Frequent Recollection, Larry Rosenberg shows how intimacy with the realities of aging can actually be used as a means to liberation. When we become intimate with these inevitable aspects of life, he writes, we also become intimate with ourselves, with others, with the world - indeed with all things.

Kulananda & Dominic Houlder
It may seem contradictory that Buddhist teachers Kulananda and Dominic Houlder have also been highly successful in the business arena, but they have learned that Buddhist teachings do not require a life of poverty, and can indeed go hand-in-hand with wealth and prosperity. Mindfulness and Money brings to light the teachings of Buddha as they apply to the money part of life, and shares the stories of others who have found the Buddhist path to freedom, creativity, and abundance. Using the Buddhist Wheel of Life as a starting point, the authors explore the mechanism by which desire for money and material things is confining, and how mastery of desire can free us to live peacefully with our finances. Kulananda and Houlder offer five precepts for living on the Path of Abundance, including kindness, generosity, contentment, honesty, and awareness. Through prescriptive meditations, reflections, and exercises, we can begin to earn and spend more purposefully, discover the key to finding financial peace, whatever one's income. An enlightening combination of practical wisdom and spirituality, Mindfulness and Money is a valuable asset for all seekers.

Neale Donald Walsch
Neale Donald Walsch's conversation with god continues with "A New Revelation". This volume offers some possible, penetrating answers to the questions of our day, providing the tools to pull ourselves out of despair and towards a new world vision. Addressing the zeitgeist following the tide of events of September 11th 2001, Walsch shows how he believes that the violence, loss, sorrow and terror of the world cannot be eliminated through political or economic action, but only by changing our beliefs. Five fallacies about life, combined with the five fallacies about God, continue to feed a deadly misconception that leads to devastating world events governed by violence and crisis. Through challenging the fallacies of our belief, Walsch believes we can move forward, building at last a new world of peace and harmony based on our new, true beliefs about God.

NOW! The Art of Being Truly Present is a collection of 85 original reflections on everyday experience, each paired with "mindful reminders" or meditative invocations, on the subjects that we all deal with on a daily basis and throughout our lives: Work, Aging, Gossip, Sex, and Friendship - just to name a few.

If conventional explanations of life don't make sense to you anymore, the ideas in this book just might. Here is an account of our planetary ascent into higher consciousness, a big screen view of the Earth drama through the experience of the ascended masters, Thoth, Babaji and a playful witness-guide from the 13th dimension, Drunvalo Melchizedek. Drunvalo journeyed through the great abyss to polarity consciousness as a catalyst to help us wake up. It took him a long time to get here, so he plans to stay for a while. The speed at which we're evolving is unheard of in the universe, thanks to a wildly successful interplanetary experiment done in 1972. We will meet the forces working to advance our evolution of consciousness, our planet will shift into a new dimensional level. Many galactic presences have already gathered around our planet, watching and waiting, to observe this unprecedented event.
