Capturing the history of the mid 1300's in England, France and Spain, this newly researched historical novel meets Christian Superstition, Templar Treasure and the many unbelievable mysteries of its origin, with battles, adventures and loves of the two sons of King Edward III. The Ruby is known to have caused English, Moorish and Spanish Kings to fight for its possession at a time of Magic, Alchemy and Treachery. It is well known that her late Majesty The Queen was intrigued by the mystery surrounding this precious jewel, which sits in the centre of The Imperial Crown of England. Sarah Macpherson (also writes under Conolly-Carew) is a researcher and historical author of several books, countless articles, lectures, radio and TV interviews. Now in her late 70's, Sarah regards The Black Prince's Ruby as the most controversial book of the last few years.

"A complete course of Theology for the use of all Christians, where the art of prayer and meditation is taught theoretically and practically." - Fr. Camilo María Abad Puente S.J. (1878-1969)Venerable Father Louis de Ponte, S.J. lived to be one of the most esteemed ascetical writers of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. He was born in Valladolid Spain, on 1554. He died a holy death in the same city on the 16th of February 1624, having completed his seventieth year. His cause of beatification was introduced in 1667; all his writings pontifically approved in 1714; and his virtues declared heroic in 1759 by Clement XIII. He spent a great part of his priestly life exclusively devoted to the spiritual formation of younger Jesuits, either as master of novices or as spiritual father. Through his personal experience of labouring in the lord's vineyard, he learned how to direct souls. Leading them in prayer and showing them how to seek God.His first work which issued from his pen was the book of "Meditations" on the principal mysteries of our holy faith, on the Life and Passion of our Lord, of His Blessed Mother, of the Divinity and Trinity etc. It was written in Spanish, and printed in the year 1605. Within one year after its first appearance, it passed through three editions, and was translated into seven languages.It is in truth an immortal work, in which the reader scarcely knows which to admire most, either the extensive learning, or the order of arrangement, or the multiplicity and correctness of the reflections, or the unction with which the mysteries are unfolded. It cannot be read without feeling the will excited to devotion, or without a desire to profit by it. In it he explains admirably the practice of prayer, at the same time furnishing ample materials for it. In it directors and confessors may find wherewith to instruct those committed to their charge. In it religious of every order may find celestial manna for the daily food of their devotion. In it, in fine, every person of every state may learn how to appreciate the eternal truths, and the mysteries of our holy faith, and also how to live well, if they will frequently read and meditate upon them. Emperor Ferdinand II declared that this book had been most useful to him, and knew it almost by heart.

After the loss of everyone HELENE PARISH loves and horrific premonitions of things she fears are to come, she is drawn to the town of Glenhaven, Tennessee. The town doesn't appear on a map, dead-ending at the end of a treacherous winding road known as the Dragon's Neck. The town's doctor, AMSEL RICHTER, might be the sexiest man Helene has ever met with his over six-foot frame and unusual violet eyes. He has an uncanny ability to get under her skin. And like the townspeople, he perceives things about Helene's psychic abilities that she has kept hidden her entire life. When Helene investigates strange lights in the woods and encounters a terrifying winged being, she is sure Amsel is hiding something. Then, there is the matter of the letter from the birth mother she never knew and the strange timing of its arrival. Helene seeks to understand the invisible world she feels bound to. But will she be able to accept what she uncovers?

'Never turn your back to the ocean, ' the wise say. Whether that be the real blue sea or the ocean of grace, you want to be facing it, ready to take it all in when the tide turns your way. The grace of Bhagavān has carried me from the depths of my afflicted mind to the heights of sublime thoughts completely immersed in his splendour. Repeatedly. Realizing Bhagavān is durgama, difficult, and finding a Guru durlabha, rare. And what happens when the lines between the two objects of devotion blur for you? This book is one such story, a humble tribute to my merciful Guru, Om Swami. But it's not for the non-believer or the first-time reader of my works. Besides, I don't think you will pick this book, but this book will pick you. For it requires a disciple's mind to enjoy the melody of devotion played throughout this work. Think of this book as the diary of a disciple. As a young seedling must weather all storms to turn into a giant tree ultimately, one's faith in God needs to survive the storms of doubt before bhakti emerges victorious. Grace flows unimpeded from Bhagavān to Bhakta then. Precisely the reason you are holding this book.

Can a ghost present evidence in court? Can a spirit testify through a witness who is in a trance? Can a house be said to be legally haunted? The answer to all three of these questions is, yes. And the proof will be presented in the following pages. Examined in this unique book are over 25 cases which involve evidence that is supplied by ghosts and accepted by courts of law. Suspects have been convicted of murder and suffered execution on evidence offered by ghosts. Disputed wills have been settled due to paranormal intervention. Houses have been declared legally haunted based on the effects had on the property by the ghost itself. This work - written by a legal researcher and parapsychologist - offers a rare look at the influence the supernatural has had on legal decisions through the ages. All of the cases studied are documented, verifiable and of relatively modern origin. These are not cases from Medieval witch hunting courts. They are not about psychic detectives. They are about ghosts in the modern world (mostly 20th century) and their efforts to find justice from beyond the grave. If ghosts are merely imaginary, it would not be possible for evidence supplied by them to be accepted as proof in courts across the world, including the United States. An imaginary being cannot give evidence! This is a book about ghosts and hauntings written for all readers, even though seen from a legal perspective. It seemed the best way to offer proof about the existence of ghosts - through legal verdicts made by sitting courts. You be the judge.

You're invited to journey with Tony Ingrassia as he unveils the amazing story of how he traveled from the most difficult and painful betrayal of his life to the seemingly impossible destination of forgiveness. After being deeply hurt by the most loved and trusted person of his life, he was left entangled by the invisible chains of the anguish and torment that were holding him captive. Is it possible for a person who's been so deeply hurt to ever overcome the almost unbearable pain that lives in their heart? After enduring the most difficult two-year period of his entire life, Tony unravels the extraordinary series of events that guided him toward the unexpected pathway to his own freedom - forgiving the one who had so deeply hurt him. Initially daunting, the idea of pardoning the one who caused him such immense pain felt insurmountable. Yet, Tony's desperate plea to God opened the doorway to the transformative process that began to change his own heart and life. Tony's heartfelt account leads readers on an honest exploration of human emotion, spiritual growth, and the transformative power of forgiveness. The book transcends a mere personal narrative and stands as a testament to the resilience of the human spirit and the redemptive potential of forgiveness. "The Journey of Forgiveness" will deeply resonate with anyone who has faced betrayal and hurt and reveal the practical pathway of healing and liberation.

We live in a difficult time. The world is changing in ways that are often complex, confusing, and disruptive to our lives and that can't easily be anticipated. Within such a world, there is a renewed hunger for more direct access to personal gnosis, not dependent on external authorities. Each of us craves a reliable internal compass with which to navigate a world that, in the throes of very large, seemingly insolvable environmental, political, economic, social, racial and cultural problems, is increasingly uncertain. While astrology may not be able to directly address these global issues, it can help us to cope in meaningful ways by reminding us, through an ongoing, ever-evolving conversation between psyche and cosmos, that we have a place and a purpose in the larger scheme of things. Out of this conversation can come not just a clearer sense of identity and purpose, and a greater capacity to effectively navigate one's life, but also a communion with numinous, sacred mysteries. This book narrates the history of astrology's co-evolution with science, religion and culture over thousands of years, and shows how in the postmodern era of increasing uncertainty, it can provide a more direct pathway to deep self-knowledge. The author shows how it is possible to go beyond interpretation into a more intimate exploratory relationship to a living cosmos. 472 pages with bibliography and a useful navigational index.

She's used to temper tantrums, swearing, and threats, but finding a dead body is an entirely new low.She isn't interested in getting more involved than she already is in the investigation into the man she found's death, but when, a few days later, she stumbles over a second body lying feet away from where she found the first, she can't avoid it.She knows the streets of her route, knows the people on them, but she is absolutely astonished when New Scotland Yard discovers the art gallery near where she found the bodies is a front for mixing up a new psychedelic drug.
