Self Remembering
With hundreds of books on the market today urging readers to develop mindfulness, pointing to the condition of “awakening” that most religious/philosophical traditions aim toward, this new addition by Red Hawk stands head and shoulders above the crowd. It offers detailed practical guidelines that allow one to know with certainty—not from imagination, theory, thought, or lying—when one is Present and Awake; it details the objective feedback mechanisms available to everyone for attaining this certainty: Am I awake now? How do I know? Sincere readers will find that help in answering these two questions is invaluable and life-changing. Written from the perspective of a practitioner of mo...
Women Who Belong
Why bother to invert the history of Western women? We must do so to fight an insidious, fallacious assumption that patriarchy is universal and eternal, and we must do so to nullify the amnesic effects of Domesticity’s potent semantics. We must resist this two-pronged attack that reduces women to powerless incubators. When we invert the patriarchal hegemony and center the ordinary woman as empowered owner and hostess to her life story, we find women, rich and poor, who chose when, where, how and if they would cooperate with the rules of patriarchy, rules often supported by other women. Our heroines demanded the rights due them for properly occupying their societal place in the home, in chur...

Sacred Mounds
Cyclonic hordes of insects, a telepathic despot, body-swapping sex—just a few of the surprises Salvador Samuels encounters when he finds himself swept back to pre-colonial times walking in the moccasins of a blind Indian who in turn, has been transported into Salvador's body in present day America. Four hundred years apart, they're bound by a common mission to rescue our world, aided by two remarkable women and the mysterious presence of the mounds. Thousands of these ancient earthworks once dotted the landscape of North America. We still don't know why they were created. Sacred Mounds suggests they are as important today as when they were made over a thousand years ago. FINALIST: 2022 2022 SCREENCRAFT CINEMATIC BOOK COMPETITION
Children Bound to Labor
The history of early America cannot be told without considering unfree labor. At the center of this history are African and Native American adults forced into slavery; the children born to these unfree persons usually inherited their parents' status. Immigrant indentured servants, many of whom were young people, are widely recognized as part of early American society. Less familiar is the idea of free children being taken from the homes where they were born and put into bondage. As Children Bound to Labor makes clear, pauper apprenticeship was an important source of labor in early America. The economic, social, and political development of the colonies and then the states cannot be told prop...
Chakras and the Enneagram
Chakras and the Enneagram explores the deep esoteric relationships between the yogic system of chakras and Gurdjieff's enneagram. While chakras have been a well-known feature of eastern teachings since their inception, Gurdjieff's enneagram is a diagram from esoteric eastern teachings that remained hidden for many centuries before Gurdjieff introduced it to the west in the early 1900's. Properly understood, the enneagram contains essential keys for understanding the internal dynamics of chakra teachings. In addition, chakra teachings reciprocally impart vital information about the enneagram, revealing two long-separated threads of an ancient teaching that are now brought back together again.Studying this book in conjunction with The Universal Enneagram will help explain why Gurdjieff said that the enneagram can, in the right hands and with sufficient understanding, be used to explain almost anything
