    The Crest-Jewel of Wisdom , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 261min
    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. Just as the sun with its splendor and its glories greets us every morning when we awake and silently through the day nourishes us in all parts of our being, and later as it sets at night, leaves aglow of rich color suggesting a spiritual mystery to be grasped somewhere, somehow - maybe in the morn's returning light - so the challenging message of Sankaracharya's jewel-thoughts braces the spirits of world-weary ones as they turn to its radiant wisdom. They become illumined by the divine fire permeating its words, and as they turn from the study of its verses enriched for another of life's experiences, the glow of the gleaned awakenings will become a haunting memory leading them back to its precepts for another sunrise and sunset of the spirit. ungekürzt.

    Climbing the Stairs , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 294min
    From the grand houses of Brighton to imposing London mansions, life as a kitchen maid could be exhausting and demoralizing. It's not just being at the beck and call of the people upstairs, when even the children of the family can treat you like dirt, but having to deal with temperamental cooks, starchy butlers, and chauffeurs with a roving eye. Marriage is the only escape, but with one evening off a week Margaret has no time to lose. Between Perce the bus conductor (who brings his mother on dates) and Mr. Hailsham the fishmonger (who looks - and smells - a bit like his wares), her initial prospects are hardly the stuff of dreams. But then she meets Albert; a butcher boy-turned-milkman. Could he be the perfect husband? And can she make the perfect wife when, as she soon discovers, years spent serving others don't prepare you for managing your own life? Soon Margaret begins to wonder - how can someone like her ever improve their station? Told with her trademark wit and warmth, Climbing the Stairs is a unique, sharp-eyed tale of a time when the idea of masters and servants began to lose its sway, and of a remarkable woman who grasped the opportunities of this brave new world with both hands. ungekürzt.

    Horizons of Cosmology: Exploring Worlds Seen and Unseen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 425min
    Highly esteemed astrophysicist Joseph Silk explores the vast mysteries and speculations of the field of cosmology in a way that balances an accessible style for the general reader and enough technical detail for advanced students and professionals. Indeed, while the physical laws and origins of the universe can be endlessly complex, even Einstein once mused that they could be explained simply enough to be grasped by nonspecialists. To that end, Silk begins by introducing the basic story of the major discoveries in cosmology over the past century - wherin we learned that we live in an expanding universe populated with galaxies and stars. The middle chapters examine a number of contemporary puzzles, such as dark matter and dark energy. The last third of the book looks at the human side of cosmology and moves to the more philosophical frontiers of the field, such as concepts of multiverses and time travel - areas of exploration where some crossover into speculative territory becomes unavoidable. In the past century alone, our understanding of the universe has expanded exponentially, and it will be fascinating to see what discoveries the next hundred years hold. Few books will provide such a thorough understanding of where we have been and what might lie ahead as Horizons of Cosmology. The book is published by Templeton Press. ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Double Take , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 254min
    Double take: a rapid or surprised second look, either literal or figurative, at a person or situation whose significance has not been completely grasped at first. Kevin Michael Connolly is a 23-year-old man who has seen the world in a way most of us never will. Whether swarmed by Japanese tourists at Epcot Center as a child or holding court at the X Games on his mono-ski, Kevin Connolly has been an object of curiosity since the day he was born without legs. Growing up in rural Montana, he was raised like any other kid (except, that is, for his father's MacGyver-like contraptions such as the "butt boot"). As a college student, Kevin traveled to 17 countries on his skateboard, including Bosnia, China, Ukraine, and Japan. In an attempt to capture the stares of others, he took more than 33,000 photographs of people staring at him. In this dazzling memoir, Connolly casts the lens inward to explore how we view ourselves and what it is to truly see another person. We also get to know his quirky and unflappable parents and his girlfriend. From the home of his family in Helena, Montana, to the streets of Tokyo and Kuala Lumpur, Kevin's remarkable journey will change the way you look at others, and the way you see yourself. ungekürzt.

    Advanced Hypnotherapy Protocols and Applications: The Neurology of Suggestion Series, Book 2 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 220min
    While writing The Neurology of Suggestion, the first book in this series, I suddenly realized how much I had learned about hypnosis and hypnotherapy was completely false and completely divorced from scientific standards expected within medicine and mental health. It was like my own field was in a trance of delusion. Advanced Hypnotherapy Protocols and Applications takes the theories and concepts first introduced in The Neurology of Suggestion and weaves them into 10 Principles for Transformation and provides easy, science-based methods and applications, which medical, mental health, and other practitioners of hypnosis and hypnotherapy can quickly use with their current patients and clients. I have successfully used The Neurology of Suggestion with patients for over 29 years. During that time, I also trained clinicians in the medical, dental, chiropractic, counseling, psychology, and related fields. The ideas present in both The Neurology of Suggestion and in Advanced Hypnotherapy Protocols are scientifically-based and field tested by real practitioners working with real people. Many of my students have used these techniques with their family members who have been dealing with a wide range of issues. The techniques described can be easily modified once the practitioner grasped the principles. And, they can be used for a wide range of issues such as pain management, psychosomatic illnesses such as Irritable Bowl Syndrome and Fibromyalgia, for a variety of mental disorders, and for performance-based issues such as golf and sports improvement, accelerated learning, and much more.  ungekürzt.

Over 40 minutes later, she returned from the other side, carrying the keys to unlock profound understanding and seemingly supernatural abilities. Dying allowed Christine to awaken to humanity's natural energetic potentials and pierce the veil between the physical and energetic worlds.

    The Trinity 101: How to Understand One God in Three Persons, Hörbuch, Digital, 280min
    The Trinity is the foundation of Christian faith, the lifeblood of its liturgy. In this remarkable course, you will come to understand the Trinitarian theology and history as never before. Your professor is Fr. David Vincent Meconi, SJ (DPhil, the University of Oxford), an expert on early Church history and an award-winning theology professor at Saint Louis University. The idea of one God as three persons cannot be understood through human reason alone. Indeed, the doctrine of the Trinity was not something that early Christians fully grasped. Since then, the ecumenical councils and Christianity's great theologians have developed an understanding of this great mystery, giving us the necessary language to discuss it. The Trinity 101 encapsulates two millennia of Trinitarian theology in a series of 12 brilliant lectures. Thorough yet accessible, Meconi's course covers the fascinating history of Trinitarian doctrine, from the first disciples to the pews of modern churches. Along the way, you'll explore how the Trinity manifests itself in sacred scripture, the Mass, and catechism. The doctrine of God's triune existence has always been the foundation of Christian belief. After rooting yourself in the scriptural origins of the Trinity, you'll explore how the first Christians unfolded the teaching Jesus left to His disciples. Moving through the history of the Trinity, you will come to see its mystery not as an abstract doctrine, but rather as the manifestation of Christian discipleship. This course is part of the Learn25 collection.  Language: English.

    The Knife’s Edge: The Heart and Mind of a Cardiac Surgeon , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 576min
    An intimate and compelling exploration into the unique psyche of the heart surgeon, by one of the profession’s most eminent figures.Although Professor Stephen Westaby was born with the necessary coordination and manual dexterity, it was a head trauma sustained during university that gifted him the qualities of an exceptional heart surgeon: qualities that are frequently associated with psychopathy. His 35-year career has been characterised by fearlessness and ruthless ambition, leaving empathy at the hospital door as thousands of patients put their lives in his hands.For heart surgeons, the inevitable cost of failure is death, and in The Knife’s Edge, Westaby reflects on the unique mind-set of those who are drawn to this exhilarating and often tragic profession. We discover the pioneers who grasped opportunities and took chances to drive innovation and save lives. Often difficult, uninhibited and fearless, theirs is a field constantly threatened by the risk of public failure.Like those before him, Westaby refuses to draw the line in his search of a lifetime solution to problems of the heart. His determination is unerring - a steadfastness underpinned by his unusual mind. But as we glimpse into the future of cardiac surgery, for all its remarkable scientific advancement, one question remains: within the confines of socialised medical health-care systems, how can heart surgeons - individuals often hardwired with avoidance of self-doubt, a penchant for glory and a flagrant disregard for authority - truly flourish? ungekürzt.
