What happens when millennials meet a mystic? An avalanche of queries and an unflinching stream of answers. In this compliation of five talks from Youth and Truth events, Sadhguru fileds questions that are quirky, personal, profound and shockingly bold from university students. In a camaraderie bridging age, they adventure through a mind-bogging spectrum of subjects like romance and sexuality, loneliness and jealousy, parenting and education, career and business, politics and spirituality, artificial intelligence, racism, drugs, food, Yogic sciences and god making. Equally wide ranging is the mood of the talks that ranges from playfulness and hilarity to moments of gobsmacked speechlessness, dawning clarity and paradigm shifts, all infused with the fizzing energy of youth

Take a Transit Minibus, a full-sized roof-rack loaded with camping equipment, 14 passengers, plus a driver armed with road maps of Europe, Asia and Africa and you have a phenomenon that was to be a character-forming and life-changing experience for a generation of travellers. That phenomenon was "overland". For the first time, young people had an affordable way to travel in the relative safety of a group to what, for many, had previously been inaccessible, and possibly dangerous, places. Overland brought together larger-than-life characters, involved some epic journeys and created unforgettable memories. The late 60s and early 70s was a period of Woodstock, peace, love and flower power - and a feeling of freedom was in the air. The fruits of the post-war baby boom were discovering and celebrating this new-found freedom and the time was ripe for this travel phenomenon to take off.This is a story of how a broken relationship and the urge to break out led the author, in his early twenties and raised on an Essex council estate in the 50s/60s, to take his first trip abroad as a passenger on an overland trip to Morocco in September 1969, (he admits to being so naïve at the time that he thought Morocco was somewhere in the South of France), encountering an individual who happened to be a master at concocting a cock-and-bull story which eventually landed him a job as an overland driver.He suddenly found himself inducted into the University of Life, spending the next four years on a hectic, challenging and adventurous journey across three continents, travelling extensively through Europe, Asia, India and Africa; watching the sunrise over Mount Everest, driving overnight through winter blizzards in the Anatolian mountains of Eastern Turkey and waking in the Sahara just before dawn in a complete sound vacuum. Along the way, he met some amazing, interesting and colourful characters and made lifelong friendships - and went ten-pin bowling with the Prince of Afghanistan!

This raw yet frequently hilarious real-life adventure takes you on a wild rollercoaster of grit, willpower, sacrifice and suffering, punctuated by the steep mountain roads, terrifying near-misses, crushing fatigue, fraying relationships and fleeting joy that were his life for 67 days, 10 hours and 27 minutes-followed by a devastating aftermath.This raw yet frequently hilarious real-life adventure takes you on a wild rollercoaster of grit, willpower, sacrifice and suffering, punctuated by the steep mountain roads, terrifying near-misses, crushing fatigue, fraying relationships and fleeting joy that were his life for 67 days, 10 hours and 27 minutes-followed by a devastating aftermath.
A creative guide to a unique and beautiful form of Korean art, steeped in ancient tradition.Bojagi are textiles that wrap, cover, carry, or store objects. Some are made from whole pieces of fabric and some are patched together from small scraps of cloth - they are a unique form of Korean textile art. The careful arrangement of shapes and colours shows an abstract composition which has made bojagi popular with textile artists and quilters today. In this book, experienced artist and educator Youngmin Lee gives you comprehensive step-by-step instructions on traditional bojagi techniques and materials, and provides a history of the art form in Korean culture - which dates back to the Joseon dynasty - where it continues to occupy a prominent place in the daily lives of Koreans. Learn hand stitch techniques, seam finishes and decorative motifs on a range of materials from ramie, hemp and cotton to silk and naturally dyed, eco-printed materials.Youngmin introduces a variety of beautifully illustrated projects, with a modern twist - from gift wrap to wall hangings to cushions and clothing - whilst always being true to ancient Korean textile traditions.

With extensive research, real-world examples, and hands-on applications, this go-to guide offers a comprehensive look at the principles and practices of biochar--and all of its world-changing uses. Like many human discoveries, biochar has likely been invented, lost, and reinvented multiple times. It can be found in the rich terra preta soils of the Amazon and in the ancient "dark earths" dotting Africa, Asia, and Europe. However, biochar isn't just an archeological curiosity. In The Biochar Handbook, author Kelpie Wilson argues that the simple process of burning organic material in a low-oxygen, low-emission environment could be one of the most powerful tools we have to restore degraded soils and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. In accessible and authoritative prose, Wilson demonstrates that biochar is a low-tech but effective means of reducing wildfire risks, restoring soil carbon, managing manure, weaning farms off of toxic inputs, and producing the best compost ever made. In this book, you'll also find: A pocket history of biochar Step-by-step instructions on making biochar for yourself Applications for soil water retention, pest deterrence, compost enhancement, and more Inspiring examples of ecosystem restoration and improved forest management Low-cost recipes, including Cultured Biochar and Sustainable Potting Soil Wilson makes a compelling case that biochar is both simple to make and a potent solution to a host of knotty problems, both global and close to home. Whether you're a gardener, homesteader, rancher, commercial farmer, permaculturalist, or forest manager, this book will show you how to put biochar to work, making you and your community more resilient as a result.
"Breakthrough is a toolkit for turning hopelessness into success, sadness into deep joy and stigmatisation into fuel for positively transforming others' lives. Please, please, please read this inspirational book--it will change your life."--Professor Ged Byrne, MBE, Consultant Surgeon and Director of Global Health at NHS England "Ahmed Hankir has given us a gift--a true Breakthrough. This timely book reminds us that mental health 'flaws' can be tools: that vulnerability and shared humanity can be deployed to heal our fellow wounded travelers."--Andrés Martin, MD, PhD, Professor, Yale Child Study Center and Medical Director, Children's Psychiatric Inpatient Service at Yale-New Haven Children's Hospital, Connecticut USA There is no health without mental health. We all know that people with mental illness deserve relief from their suffering, but why do so many of us remain reluctant to seek treatment and help? Defeat the stigma. You deserve to be healthy. In Breakthrough, World Health Organization Award-Winning psychiatrist, former psychiatric patient and mental health advocate Dr Ahmed Hankir delivers a unique and powerful insight into mental health and wellness, mental illness, mental health treatment, and the culture surrounding mental health by tracing his own personal recovery journey from impoverished and shunned psychiatric patient, to becoming an NHS Consultant Psychiatrist. The book explores many of the issues currently dominating the discussion of mental health and illness, including the impacts of poverty, unemployment, homelessness, the use of medication to treat mental illness, the widespread prevalence of stigma, discrimination and racism in mental health and much more. Breakthrough is a resource of hope and a companion for people suffering in silence who feel isolated and disconnected from society. The take home messages are clear: living with a mental health condition is nothing to be ashamed about and, with the right support, recovery is a reality for the many and not the few.

Populist rage, ideological fracture, economic and technological shocks, war, and an international system studded with catastrophic risk-the early decades of the twenty-first century may be the most revolutionary period in modern history. But it is not the first. Humans have lived, and thrived, through more than one great realignment. What are these revolutions, and how can they help us to understand our fraught world?In this major work, Fareed Zakaria masterfully investigates the eras and movements that have shaken norms while shaping the modern world. Three such periods hold profound lessons for today. First, in the seventeenth-century Netherlands, a fascinating series of transformations made that tiny land the richest in the world-and created politics as we know it today. Next, the French Revolution, an explosive era that devoured its ideological children and left a bloody legacy that haunts us today. Finally, the mother of all revolutions, the Industrial Revolution, which catapulted Great Britain and the US to global dominance and created the modern world.Alongside these paradigm-shifting historical events, Zakaria probes four present-day revolutions: globalization, technology, identity, and geopolitics. For all their benefits, the globalization and technology revolutions have produced profound disruptions and pervasive anxiety and our identity. And increasingly, identity is the battlefield on which the twenty-first century's polarized politics are fought. All this is set against a geopolitical revolution as great as the one that catapulted the United States to world power in the late nineteenth century. Now we are entering a world in which the US is no longer the dominant power. As we find ourselves at the nexus of four seismic revolutions, we can easily imagine a dark future. But Zakaria proves that pessimism is premature. If we act wisely, the liberal international order can be revived and populism relegated to the ash heap of history.As few public intellectuals can, Zakaria combines intellectual range, deep historical insight, and uncanny prescience to once again reframe and illuminate our turbulent present. His bold, compelling arguments make this book essential reading in our age of revolutions.
