“This is a truly extraordinary and transformative book. It distills the most profound and fundamental truths about happiness and healing to their essence.”— Dean Ornish, MDProviding an antidote to our never-ending quest for more, mindfulness teacher, successful entrepreneur, and Zen Buddhist Billy Wynne shows that embracing emptiness can declutter the mind and distill our experience of daily life to its essential beauty, clarity, and joy A clear and reasoned antidote to our current epoch of insatiable more-ness, The Empty Path is a how-to manual and spiritual guidebook for realizing and practicing emptiness as the source of inherent joy and satisfaction in our lives. By exploring this core, often-misunderstood Buddhist teaching, author Billy Wynne dispels the common misconception that peace and fulfillment will come via accumulation or achievement. He shows that instead of resolving our suffering, the quest for more only increases our problems by preventing us from engaging with the full breadth of our authentic life experience. The Empty Path leads readers on a modern-day hero’s journey, with Wynne as a guide.

Wanting to change your life forever, but only doing it in fits and starts. Feeling inspired to be disciplined one day, then falling back into old habits on the next. Or changing for a few weeks or even months, but then slipping back into familiar behaviours. Bad habits are hard to break for a reason. But you still try because the goal is worth it: slowly and painfully forming new habits to the point where you are able to adhere to a new lifestyle, long-term.Not only do we struggle with all of it but the failure rates of these models are staggering.What if there was a different way? What if sudden moment, which happens to be a surprisingly common occurrence among those who succeed would allow you to skip the struggle of behaviour change and just become a different person in a moment?

Forgoing the narratives of the sea that prevailed in his earlier works, Melville’s later fiction contains some of the finest and many of his keenest and bleakest observations of life, not on the high seas, but at home in America. With the publication of this Library of America volume, the third of three volumes, all Melville’s fiction has now been restored to print for the first time.Pierre; or, The Ambiguities, published in 1852 (the year after Moby-Dick), moves between the idyllic Berkshire countryside and the nightmare landscape of early New York City. Its hero, a young American patrician trying to redeem the secret sins of his father, elopes to the city, discovers Bohemian life, attempts a literary epic, and struggles his way through incest, murder, and madness. Long a controversial work, it is Melville’s darkest satire of American life and letters and one of his most powerful books.A pivotal work, both for Melville’s career and for American literature, Pierre was followed by Israel Potter, the story of a veteran of the Revolution, victim of a thousand mischances, and a long-suffering exile in England. Along the way are memorable episodes of war and intrigue, with personal portraits of Benjamin Franklin, John ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Hudební CD - The Red Shoes je sedmé studiové album anglické hudebnice Kate Bushe z roku 1993. The Red Shoes je sedmé studiové album anglické hudebnice Kate Bushe z roku 1993. Kate Bush patří k nejpozoruhodnějším ženám v hudební historii. V roce 1978, když jí bylo devatenáct let, okupovala čtyři týdny vrchol singlové hitparády v Anglii s debutovým singlem Wuthering Heights. Nikdy předtím se na první příčce neumístila zpěvačka, která by si píseň sama napsala. O dva roky později dobyla s deskou Never For Ever ostrovní albový žebříček a stala se první britskou sólovou interpretkou, které se to podařilo. Hned třináctkrát byla nominována na výroční ceny Brit Awards, sošku získala v roce 1987. Třikrát se ocitla na seznamu nominovaných na Grammy, obdržela prestižní Ivor Novello Award určenou autorům. Talentovanou zpěvačku objevil rodinný přítel David Gilmour z Pink Floyd. Okouzlen jejími amatérskými demosnímky pronajal studio a natačil s tehdy šestnáctiletou Kate tři...
