Our Jungle Road to Tokyo is the action-packed account of how US and Allied forces overcame incredible odds to rout invading Japanese from entrenched positions deep in the mountain jungles of Papua New Guinea. Battles in The Buna Campaign took place in swamps, impassable vegetation, coconut plantations with invisible snipers buried in tree roots, hillsides riddled with pill-boxes and maze-like underground bunkers impervious to artillery and mortar.

In India, the candidates for initiation into the science of “Raja Yoga”, when they apply to the yogi masters for instruction, are given a series of lessons designed to enlighten them regarding the nature of the real self and to instruct them in the secret knowledge, whereby they may develop the consciousness and realization of the real “I” within them.

One of the best nonfictional explanations of the Buddha's life and teaching is found in Henry Steel Olcott's Buddhist Catechism in a question and answer format. Colonel Henry Steel Olcott (1832-1907) was the first Western Buddhist convert, probably since antiquity. He cofounded the Theosophical Society and was its first president. The only contributor to the 19th century southern Buddhist revival who was born a Protestant, Olcott was able to promote Eastern ideas to Western society.

The Mind of the Prophet - The Diary of a Curious Mind begins by questioning the mental health of God’s prophets, then asks curious questions about the story of creation, and re-examines the lessons often taught about Abrahamic patriarchs. Sam humanizes these men and women, and invites the listener to stand in their shoes.

This is the story of Medicine of One by Lomakayu. It is a story of shamanic nonduality, where this manifest earth helps return us to what is not many but one continuous web of consciousness. A web of life that weaves through rock and river, stone and star to the infinite east and the infinite west, the infinite south and the infinite north. It is the story of finding the truth north of our compass.

Thinkers everywhere are conscious of two things, first, that the region of mystery has never before been so clearly defined, and secondly, that that region can be entered more easily than has hitherto been the case; it may, therefore, perhaps be induced to render up some of its secrets if investigators of all schools pursue their search with determination.

The Hopi Currently number about 10,000 people. They are made of many clans each varying in their details of the stories of myths of their people. So this is not a book of the Hopi. It is the book or truth of a hopi or group sharing the same beliefs. They are a people who believe themselves to have a responsibility for keeping the whole world in balance by living in harmony at the center. So the failure of their imbalance is reflected in the world. This little book in fact begins with the last world being in a state of great imbalance and the strong intent to move out of that state.

As the human form, generally, corresponds to the human will, generally, so the individual bodily structure corresponds to the character, desires, will, and thought of the individual. Therefore the outer nature is nothing but the expression of the inner nature. This inner nature of each individual is what re-incarnates or expresses itself successively in various forms, one after another. When a man dies the individual ego or Jîva (as it is called in Sanskrit), which means the germ of life or the living soul of man, is not destroyed, but it continues to exist in an invisible form.

The soul must be eternal. Why? In the first place we see that the soul is not matter. It is neither a gross body, nor a fine body, which we call mind or thought. It is neither a physical body, nor what in Christianity is called a spiritual body. It is the gross body and the spiritual body that are liable to change. The gross body is liable to change almost every minute and dies, but the spiritual body endures through long periods, until one becomes free, when it also falls away.

This is the message of Shri Ramakrishna to the modern world: “Do not care for doctrines, do not care for dogmas, or sects, or churches, or temples; they count for little compared with the essence of existence in each man which is spirituality; and the more this is developed in a man, the more powerful is he for good. Earn that first, acquire that, and criticize no one, for all doctrines and creeds have some good in them. Show by your lives that religion does not mean words, or names, or sects, but that it means spiritual realization."

I know that my oneness with God gives no recognition to anything unlike God. All that God is I am now consciously aware of being. The love, the beauty, the goodness, and the joy of God fill me to overflowing and find full expression in everything that I do. The peace which is God at the center sustains all spiritual and mental attributes in complete equilibrium within me. Love and wisdom are balanced within me. Beauty and power are unified. Knowingness and understanding maintain my right relationship with those in my world.

When I speak of Jesus or any other character of Scripture, I am speaking of the personification of a principle, not of a person as you are or I am. The Bible records vision, and it makes no reference to persons or events which occurred on Earth. Unfortunately, people have mistakenly taken personifications spoken of persons - the vehicle that conveyed the instruction for the instruction and the gross first sense - for the ultimate sense intended.

We are all dwellers in two kingdoms, the inner kingdom, the kingdom of the mind and spirit, and the outer kingdom, that of the body and the physical universe about us. In the former, the kingdom of the unseen, lie the silent, subtle forces that are continually determining, and with exact precision, the conditions of the latter. To strike the right balance in life is one of the supreme essentials of all successful living. We must work, for we must have bread. We require other things than bread. They are not only valuable, comfortable, but necessary.

Sankaracharya's Crest-Jewel of Wisdom will be a practical and inspiring guide to life. Its teachings, the shared realizations of an enlightened god-man, tell us the laws by which we may "untie the bonds of unwisdom", and thus, evermore free, with minds calm and pellucid and hearts purified of reward-desiring actions, come to know and partake of the majestic power, light, and universal kinship of the Divine within us, our birthright as humans, and our passport to grander attainments in vaster spheres of consciousness.

The student of occultism usually is quite familiar with the crass individual who assumes the cheap skeptical attitude toward occult matters, which attitude he expresses in his would-be "smart" remark that he "believes only in what his senses perceive". He seems to think that his cheap wit has finally disposed of the matter, the implication being that the occultist is a credulous, easy person who believes in the existence of things contrary to the evidence of the senses.

One of the best nonfictional explanations of the Buddha's life and teaching is found in Henry Olcott's Buddhist Catechism in a question and answer format. Followed by Herman Hesse's profound and popular Siddhartha in which the life of the Buddha is mirrored by a contemporary seeker during the time of the Buddha. Together, the listener will come a way with a clear and inspiring account of the heart of the Buddha and Buddhism as well as some of its basic history and principles.

We shall then inquire into the way in which thoughts are generated; in other words, how the intellectual storehouse is furnished with suitable materials. Apart from those ideas which seem to be ours by natural heritage, most of our thoughts arise from observation, reading, reflection, social intercourse, and travel. These will be considered separately and collectively. The next point is to know how to direct and control our thoughts.

It seemed to me Ruth's entire life was predestined. How else can you explain the meteoric rise from anonymity at St. Mary's Industrial School to heights never before or since attained by a baseball player?

Fresh from West Point, Second Lieutenant Marcus Cavanaugh arrives with a platoon of recruits from the East into territory seething with Indian trouble. Two Eagles and his renegade band of Cheyenne warriors have broken the peace, raiding railroad crews and wagon trains, slaughtering men, women, and children, then disappearing into the hills. Scouting for Two Eagles' war party, Cavanaugh, at last, discovers their winter village, barely escaping with his life to report back to the fort. But nothing in his military training has prepared him for the danger he encounters.
