Daughters of the Goddess
This book takes us along on a search for the feminine face of God. We travel with Linda Johnsen for a fascinating investigation of the great women saints of India who manifest the divine in their lives. Together with her we comb the scriptures, meet the holy ones, and are led, step by step, to sit in awe at the feet of six remarkable, contemporary women.
Lost Masters
Ashrams in Europe twenty-five hundred years ago? Greek philosophers studying in India? Meditation classes in ancient Rome? It sounds unbelievable, but it’s historically true. Alexander the Great had an Indian guru. Pythagoras, Empedocles, and Plotinus all encouraged their students to meditate. Apollonius, the most famous Western sage of the first century c.e., visited both India and Egypt—and claimed that Egyptian wisdom was rooted in India. In Lost Masters, award-winning author Linda Johnsen, digging deep into classical sources, uncovers evidence of astonishing similarities between some of the ancient Western world’s greatest thinkers and India’s yogis, including a belief in karma and reincarnation. Today ancient Greek philosophers are remembered as the founders of Western science and civilization. We’ve forgotten that for over a thousand years they were revered as sages, masters of spiritual wisdom. Lost Masters is an exploration of our long-lost Western spiritual heritage and the surprising insights it can offer us today.
Meditation is Boring?
Linda Johnsen combines an engaging writing style with her own amazing experiences to show that meditation is not boring -- it is an experience of intense mental absorption that makes all of life more engaging and clear. In this book she offers guidance on meditation and discusses selfless service, the role of spiritual teachers, and general principles of living a spiritual life.
Alpha Teach Yourself Yoga in 24 Hours
A step-by-step guide to yoga--stretching, breathing, and postures--in the proven Alpha Teach Yourself format. Readers can work through the process at their own pace, in comfortable one-hour chapters. Yoga lends itself particularly well to the Alpha Teach Yourself format because there is a logical progression of complexity in material to be learned; each hour builds on the hours that have come before. The first hours deal with stretching, relaxation, and breathing and then move forward to basic bends, twists, and postures, sitting positions, deepening your practice by adding meditation and visualizations, cleansing routines, and creating a yoga lifestyle. While designed as an introductory course to yoga, intermediate and advanced postures are also included to help readers build a complete yoga routine.
The Living Goddess
This beautiful book takes us to India today and shows us a Goddess who flourishes in temples, festivals, and in the hearts of millions. Johnsen penetrates the heart of the tradition to reveal that it offers not only an honouring of fertility and feminine values, but an amazing revelation of the limitless potentials of human consciousness.
