Krishna's Heretic Lovers
"This historical fiction tells the tale of Chandidas and Rami, two 14th century lovers. He is considered the Father of Bengali poetry, and she was a washerwoman, low caste. This is the story of their love and the great poetry it inspired."--
The Baul Tradition
This book traces the Baul Path, a Tantric spiritual tradition, from its earliest roots in the subcontinent of India, to its dissemination in the West in modern times. “Baul” – meaning “madcap” or “taken by the wind” – describes one who has a vision of reality so piercing & clear that they are called to live in a way that goes against the common grain: the safe, plodding life of the mainstream. In the East, for centuries, Baul bards & yogis wandered the dusty roads of Bengal singing & dancing with joy in praise of God. Their poetry-songs uplifted ordinary people, transporting all above the daily grind for survival & into a direct experience of the sublime. Sahaja is the hallma...
The Company of Avalon
The year is 1538 ce ... Richard Whiting and his courageous companions are the stewards of impossibly rare artifacts that have been safeguarded for millennia within Glastonbury Abbey by a secret inner circle called the "Company of Avalon." Struggling to endure through the brutal religious reform of Henry VIII, in a race against time and the looming shadow of the gallows, Abbot Whiting defies the king while the Company of Avalon colludes in secret to remove the treasures-including the bones of King Arthur and relics of Jesus, brought to ancient Briton by Joseph of Arimathea-to a remote isle of Scotland. Full of intrigue, myth and magic, with historical detail and unforgettable characters caught in the web of fate, the story unwinds the secrets and mysteries behind the bones, Joseph's relics, and the veneration of Mary Magdalene, along with the consequences of their bold mission. The Company of Avalon is the first book in The Summer Country trilogy spaning fifteen hundred years in legendary Somerset, England. The saga of the conspirators in Book One sets the stage for the prequels that follow in Book Two, The Queen's Tale, and Book Three, When Swans Fly.
Krishna's Heretic Lovers

Rami is a beautiful 20-year-old widow, of low caste, living with her two children. To survive, she washes the clothes of local villagers. An overwhelming magnetism of love and fate compels them to come together against prevailing religious and social customs. Rami leaves all of her familiar world behind to travel, sing and praise the Divine with her beloved Chandidas, along the dusty roads of Bengal. Krishna’s Heretic Lovers is an histor...
Loyalty to Your Soul
Loyalty to Your Soul establishes Spiritual Psychology as a paradigm-altering frontier. It initiates a radical shift at the core of contemporary psychological thought by unveiling a technology for using everyday life experiences as rungs on the ladder of spiritual evolution. This book is uniquely suited for anyone seeking to discover and cross the bridge that spans the waters between life referenced in material reality and life lived within the context of spiritual reality. Loyalty to Your Soul shows you how to first gain access to, and then gradually learn to live from, that sacred place inherent within everyone referred to by the authors as the Authentic Self—a place where emotional suffering ceases and profound peace and love are present. While many people have written about such an inner state, Ron and Mary Hulnick show you how to travel there . . .and what to anticipate once you arrive. The radical technology they introduce empowers readers to transform challenging or negative human experiences into direct experiences of the Soul.
Remembering Lee
The many individuals who anonymously contributed to this book had one thing in common. Each one met (in person or in dreams) and spent time with (sometimes hours, sometimes decades) the American-born spiritual teacher, Lee Lozowick (1943-2010). This is not a chronological collection, nor a compilation of dharmic teachings. It is rather a testimony to a human being who devoted his life to the benefit of others. Not necessarily to their worldly accomplishments although he was a passionate advocate for our success in various arts, and our business ventures but primarily to the realization of our true nature, the possibility of surrender to and love for God, and the liberation from the prison of...

Yogi Ramsuratkumar
Yogi Ramsuratkumar was a man who was compelled by a burning love of the Divine to give up his home, family and profession to wander the roads of India as a beggar. Passing through trials and tribulation few could endure, he met many of his contemporary mystics of our day, including his two preparatory gurus, Sri Aurobindo and Ramana Maharshi, finally landing at the feet of Swami Papa Ramdas of Kerala. This book takes the reader into the unfolding story of this great yogi's life. First-hand accounts, anecdotes and teachings transport the reader into his world: a world that is mystical, miraculous and astounding in its scope, while at the same time it is mysteriously felt to be "nearer than near". To be touched by the truth, beauty and love that emanate from such a being is to be reminded of our deepest longings. The life of Yogi Ramsuratkumar calls upon us to touch that longing within ourselves and to celebrate the inspiration of one rare individual who abandoned everything for the love of God.
Agony & Alchemy
Talks about the ancient art of tattooing as an expression of the sacred in the contemporary world. It is the natural alchemy that results when sacred images are emblazoned on the human body. Exploring the potentials of the skin art that has risen out of the popular tattoo culture, this book aims to take the tattoo experience beyond the obvious.
Dr. Kate
Pioneering North Woods doctor Kate Pelham Newcomb comes to life in this addition to the Badger Biographies series for young readers. Born in 1885, Kate Pelham was suppose to grow up to be a proper young lady in Boston, but despite her father's wishes she was determined to be a doctor. After medical school, her husband's health brought them to the clean air of northern Wisconsin and before long Kate knew every back road and cabin in the North Woods. She visited patients by snowmobile, by canoe, and by snowshoe and never sent a bill. Instead she was paid in firewood and vegtables. But what Kate dreamed of more than anything for her patients was a hospital. And that's when the kids of the community got involved. They set out to collect a million pennies - $10,000 - to help Dr. Kate build a hospital. As the news spread, coins poured in from countries across the globe. Students carted bushels of pennies, and Dr. Kate read thousands of letters cheering on her effort. Her dream came true in 1954 when the Lakeland Memorial Hospital opened its doors. Young readers will warm to Kate's spirit of compassion and never-say-never attitude.
