Different voices and driving forces alternate in each human being. Frequently, we suddenly find ourselves doing and saying things that are different from what we would have liked to do or say. This book teaches us to recognize the multiplicity contained in each of us, the different drives and needs that bring different approaches to our daily life, so we can begin to consider them as precious resources and no longer as obstacles. Understanding the complex relationships within us will help us to live better with ourselves and with others, since all our relationships in a family, social or working environment, show a similar pattern to those that happen within us. Curiosity, a playful attitude...
A modern translation of an ancient book of magic by the contemporary Italian spiritual leader Oberto Airaudi, The Book of Synchronicity taps into the “Synchronic Lines”–rivers of spiritual energy that flow through the universe. These lines link the various celestial bodies and the intelligences that can access them. The lines’ path on Earth, according to the book, takes the form of eighteen Major Lines through which pour ideas, dreams, thoughts, and information. Whenever a reader consults The Book of Synchronicity, he or she is in effect accessing this flow of knowledge. Easy to understand and use, the book can be consulted immediately for quick answers as well as longer divination processes, with no further study or outside knowledge of other divination traditions necessary. The technique is simple: readers ask a question and then throw a die, while concentrating on the question. Each answer is gained by throwing the die four times, with more than 2 million possible synchronistic combinations for each consultation. The Book of Synchronicity draws on universal wisdom to help seekers solve personal problems, obtain advice, and gain insight into their spiritual evolution.

Madness stalked the colony of New South Wales and tracing its wild path changes the way we look at our colonial history. What happened when people went mad in the fledgling colony of New South Wales? In this important new history, we find out through the tireless correspondence of governors and colonial secretaries, the delicate descriptions of judges and doctors, the brazen words of firebrand politicians, and the heartbreaking letters of siblings, parents and friends. We also hear from the mad themselves. Legal and social distinctions faded as delusion and disorder took root — in convicts exiled from their homes and living under the weight of imperial justice, in ex-convicts and small settlers as they grappled with the country they had taken from its Indigenous inhabitants, and in government officers and wealthy colonists who sought to guide the course of European history in Australia. These stories of madness are woven together into a narrative about freedom and possibilities, unravelling and collapse. Bedlam at Botany Bay looks at people who found themselves not only at the edge of the world, but at the edge of sanity. It shows their worlds colliding.

They tried to influence me to go in a different direction than where God was leading me. I could not do that because I fear and respect God. I could not overlook my duty as head of the household.
