The Pewter Scarab , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 54min
The Pewter Scarab is a fictional novelette. Oddly enough, I wrote the book based on a dream. I dreamt of the whole story, characters, plot twists, and all. I woke up, wrote the dream down, outlined the story, and fleshed it out from there. I think it’s like a parable with the characters reflecting religious characters from the stories of old, while the story itself provides a modern backdrop with an interesting twist on the science of genetics.The story is about a financial analyst who discovers some anomalies in his reporting and is sent to Singapore to research the aberrant data. Upon his arrival at the company called Scarab Inc, he finds out that they are conducting illegal DNA research to manipulate human emotions.During his adventure, he finds a guru in the form of a genetics engineer employee and discovers newfound abilities thrust upon him to thwart the Scarab Inc.'s diabolical aims. ungekürzt.

World Tales , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 793min
How can it be that the same story is found in Scotland and also in pre-Columbian America? What can account for the durability and persistence of tales? Was the tale of Aladdin and his wondrous lamp really taken from Wales (where it has been found) to the ancient East and, if so, when and by whom? These questions and more are answered in Idries Shah’s remarkable volume World Tales, which is subtitled “The extraordinary coincidence of stories told in all times, in all places.” In his introduction, Shah remarks, “Working for thirty-five years among the written and oral sources of our world heritage in tales, one feels a truly living element in them which is startlingly evident when one isolates the ‘basic’ stories; the ones which tend to have traveled farthest, to have featured in the largest number of classical collections, to have inspired great writers of the past and present.” ungekürzt.

The Indian Guru and His Disciple: ISF Monographs Series, Book 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 47min
The Indian Guru and His Disciple - ISF Monograph Series, book three, by Peter L. BrentAbout Peter L. Brent:Peter Brent was the author of many books, among them a major biography of Darwin (Charles Darwin: A Man of Enlarged Curiosity) and also two studies of the mystical and religious traditions of the East (Godmen of India and Healers of lndia), of which this monograph was a forerunner.About the monographs:Founded in 1966, The Institute For Cultural Research brought together an eclectic group of individuals - from the sciences, the arts, business, government, and all manner of other disciplines.Established under the leadership of the writer and thinker Idries Shah, ICR considered profound questions facing human society, seeking answers by tackling problems in new ways. Or rather, as Shah insisted, in an ancient way. Such systems were employed routinely by human civilization, until recent divisions and subdivisions disrupted well-honed methods of advancement and progression.ICR’s Monographs were written by invitation of the board of trustees - ranging widely in subject from the importance of storytelling to secret societies in West Africa. An extraordinary cornucopia of published work, they form a unique resource in their own right, and are being made available by The Idries Shah Foundation. ungekürzt. Language: English.

Yosemite Tour, Hörbuch, Digital, 75min
Yosemite became a National Park in 1890, 200 million years after the granite rocks formed within the earth; 20,000 years after glaciers eroded the gritty granite; 4,000 years after Ahwahneechee Indians were caretakers of the meadows; 2,000 years after Grizzly Giant, one of the largest and oldest sequoias was a seedling; and 41 years after gold was discovered in California. The rugged geography of Yosemite Valley kept it secret and isolated for many years. Only in 1851, when early miners and settlers felt their livelihood threatened by Indians, and vice versa, did white man intrude upon the valley. To some, Yosemite is a place to check off their list, sights to be seen or mountaineering routes to scale; for others, Yosemite is a destination of solitude, peace, and escape. With the large number of people visiting the valley each year, how do you avoid the crowds at peak times and find the true beauty of Yosemite? Change. Change your timing and your focus. You can stay on the beaten paths, but travel them early or late in the day, or find the trails less traveled. While others are looking up, cameras clicking to capture the familiar falls and formations, change your focus to find what they are missing, the fragile ferns at your feet, the black and white crystals peppering the rocks, or the ripple in the stream. John Muir instructed "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves." Language: English. Narrator: Janet Ault, Mark Andrews.

The Exploits of the Incomparable Mulla Nasrudin , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 117min
Perfectly designed models for isolating and holding distortions of the mind which so often pass for reasonable behavior. (Idries Shah) Today we find Idries Shah in a high-level physics report, illustrating phenomena that can't be described in ordinary technical terms. He appears in psychology textbooks, illuminating the workings of the mind in a way no straightforward explanation can. Here, in three definitive volumes, Shah takes us to the very heart of this mysterious mentor, the Mulla Nasrudin. They're comprised of skillful contemporary retellings of hundreds of collected stories and sayings bringing the unmistakable wisdom, wit, and charm of the timeless jokester to life. The mulla and his stories appear in literature and oral traditions from the Middle East to Greece, Russia, France - even China. Many nations claim Nasrudin as a native son, with the Turks going so far as to exhibit a grave with his date of death as 386. But nobody really knows who he was or where he came from. According to a legend dating from at least the 13th century, Nasrudin was snatched as a schoolboy from the clutches of the "old villain" - the crude system of thought that ensnares man - to carry through the ages the message of how to escape. He was chosen because he could make people laugh, and humor has a way of slipping through the cracks of the most rigid thinking habits. Today - as they have for centuries - the Sufis use these stories as teaching exercises, in part to momentarily freeze situations in which states of mind can be recognized. In these delightful volumes, Shah not only gives the mulla a proper vehicle for our times; he proves that the centuries-old stories and quips of Nasrudin are still some of the funniest jokes in the world. ungekürzt.

Bryce Canyon Tour, Hörbuch, Digital, 54min
Waypoint Tours are educational, entertaining, self-guided tours designed to help plan your travel adventures, enhance travel experience, and cherish your travel memories. What does a Mormon shipwright have in common with a wildlife menagerie nestled among enthralling geology adorned with a star encrusted night sky? Answer: Bryce and the five years he was here. Welcome to Bryce Canyon National Park, named after shipwright Ebenezer Bryce. From the flame-colored spires beneath the rim, to the sparkling diamonds in the night sky, we hope you enjoy the magical beauty of Bryce Canyon. Ebenezer Bryce was born in Dunblain, Scotland in 1830. As a shipwright's apprentice, he learned carpentry, the trade that would become his life. Bryce converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and immigrated to the United States at the age of 17. Upon arriving in Utah, Bryce wed Mary Parker, and at the direction of the Mormon Church, the couple became serial homesteaders, going wherever the skills of a carpenter were most needed. They also managed to raise 12 children along the way! It was between 1875 and 1880 that the Bryces lived in the lower canyon. By logging the flanks and irrigating the floor of the canyon that his neighbors christened with his name, Ebenezer supplied the fledging community with wood and water. It's unclear to what extent Bryce appreciated the world wonder that would immortalize his name. His only enduring quote about this rock labyrinth expresses more pragmatism than awe: "It's a hell of place to lose a cow." Indeed, where Ebenezer Bryce was worried about losing his cows among the hoodoos, many now come to Bryce with the intent of getting a little lost themselves in its beauty. As Park Ranger Kevin Poe puts it, "There's no question that the rocks are enchanting. But it's also a hell of place to lose yourself...among the stars." Language: English.
