Formed from years of spiritual experience and training in diverse forms of therapy, Journey Towards Soul Consciousness taps into the existential and transcendent to delineate the road toward transformation. In this book, Raphael De Mohan builds upon the esoteric systems and previous books that were the life’s work of he and his husband, the late Elias De Mohan. In a market oversaturated with texts promising spiritual quick fixes, De Mohan takes readers headlong into the often long and difficult work required for deeper and lasting spiritual accomplishments. Building a bridge between spirituality, psychology, and esoteric philosophy, this book charts the process of development through subjects like: • Engaging with ego patterns and defense mechanisms • Exercises such as novel forms of meditation, grounding, and those using chakras, vibrations, sounds, and colors, including Elias De Mohan’s Twelve Ray Vibrational Sound and Color System • Offering an understanding of the impacts of past lives and karmic issues Unique and engaging, Journey Towards Soul Consciousness offers a path for spiritual seekers hoping to embark on a journey toward an evolved consciousness.
In our increasingly globalized, interconnected, and therefore volatile world, how can we expect to find success in business? Faced with the precarity of our current economic situation, what can we fall back on in our pursuit of a meaningful and rewarding business career? From Baghdad to Toronto goes a long way to answering these omnipresent yet increasingly urgent questions, detailing businessman and first time author Yahya Abbas’s experience in the world of business and manufacturing. Here, he recounts growing up with the legacy of his family’s centuries-old, multigenerational textile business and his personal rise to operating one of the largest, most prominent manufacturers of beverage products in the North American market. Far from a nitty-gritty instructional text, Abbas uses his captivating personal story to put forward a broad philosophy for his reader, consistently arguing for principle and integrity in business dealings as the foundation of any successful career. Against the increasingly rampant philosophy that a ruthless, cutthroat attitude will serve you best, Abbas’s story testifies to the fact that no matter the industry, honesty, good ethics, and mutual respect pave the road to success.Business is always personal, and the greatest rewards will follow from being true to your values.
Ringo has never had a family of his own. When he’s finally adopted, he’s so excited! But when Ringo arrives at his new home, everything isn’t as he expected. He can smell other dogs, but he can’t see them. Ringo realises that his new family is navigating the loss of their first two dogs, Mac and Motley. What will he do? Ringo is determined to help his new family grieve, and to keep the memory of their pets alive even as they learn to move on together. The Tails of Mac and Motley is a sweet rhyming story about how we heal from grief. Because pets are with us for such a short time, many families relate to the experience of such a loss. This book helps kids understand how to process all those big feelings, and to see what it looks like to move forward.
The book celebrates Rev. Dr. Pierre and Judy Allard’s fifty years of reconciliation ministry by weaving their life experiences within broader initiatives started within Canada and overseas. Three quality moments of time, referred to as kairotic events within the contemporary history of corrections and chaplaincy, are identified. The rise of prison visitation and ex-offender reintegration organizations across Canada in the 1960s and 70s represents the first quality moment of time. Rev. Dr. Pierre Allard’s collaboration with Correctional Service Canada Commissioner Ole Ingstrup in the early 1980s in developing a new Mission Statement for the Service represents a second kairotic moment. Pierre and Judy Allard’s establishment of Just Equipping in 2006 as a response to an international call to bring about reconciliation between offenders and victims in Rwanda and other countries in Africa represents a third quality moment of time. The book analyses these three historical occasions and weaves them together with nine other Canadian chaplains’ stories of prison ministry.
What does it mean to be a man? The poems in Exposed 2U explore this question with gentleness, humour, and honesty, offering open-hearted reflections on subjects like love and romance, family and fatherhood, religion and spirituality, illness and aging, communication and community. Through a series of accessible and poignant vignettes, Sherwin Paul Head works to crack through male armour, exposing a soft, vulnerable core. A confused and exhausted Pentecostal child falls asleep under a church pew. A housefire destroys a family home—but not the family. A new father is devastated when he accidentally exposes the film roll containing photographs of his newborn daughter, presaging future estrangement before ultimate reunion. Exposed 2U is a revealing portrayal of masculinity and a compelling, redemptive journey. The poet’s willingness to divulge his own shortcomings and challenges offers a message of hope and encouragement, as well as an invitation to the reader to follow their own journey of self-reflection. Readers are encouraged to seek happiness through the poet’s formula: Harmony = (You + I) Communication² or H = (Y + I) C ²
