    Summary:
    Osho, one of the best-known and most provocative spiritual teachers of our time, presents The Sutra of 42 Chapters —a scripture compiled in the first century C.E by a Chinese emperor. Two thousand five hundred years have passed since Buddha delivered the sutras on which this series is based. Using modern idiom, Osho extracts the kernel of Buddha's profound insight and understanding and presents his everlasting message to the contemporary reader in a manner that is lucid, straightforward and humorous. Osho weaves his own unique insights into this profound ancient wisdom and expands its meaning for our time, discusses the need for doubt and argument in the spiritual search, the nature of desire and the discipline of non-attachment. As we travel with the Buddha on a path of radical wisdom, we'll laugh or shake our heads at the folly, the ineptitude, or the goodness of the characters in the stories—and gain knowledge and understanding at the same time. Osho engages us at every level to help us experience the Buddha's teachings and take in their timeless truths. A powerful, inspirational gem of a series of talks recorded in an outdoor auditorium with several thousands of people in his audience. This is an abridged edition of an original series of talks by Osho titled, 'The Discipline of Transcendence'. - The Most Excellent Way - No Prejudice in the Heart - Be Therefore Mindful - Living the Dhamma - The Truth Beyond Magic - The Twenty Difficult Things - In Accord with the Way - A Light unto Yourself - Reflections of Emptiness - The Discipline Beyond Discipline - Spiritual Enlightenment - Always on the Funeral Pyre - There Is Nothing Like Lust - Become a Driftwood - Just Working for Peanuts - Away with the Passions! - The Eightfold Way - Remember the Middle - The Discipline of Transcendence - The Ten Grounds of the Way - Provisions for the Journey - Collecting Pebbles on the Seashore of Life © & ℗1976 Osho International Foundation

    Summary:
    From the Haitian-style “shotgun” houses of the 19th century to the lavish high-rises of the 21st century, a walk through the streets of America’s neighborhoods that reveals the rich history—and future—of urban housing The Philadelphia row house. The New York tenement. The Boston triple-decker. Every American city has its own iconic housing style, structures that have been home to generations of families and are symbols of identity and pride. Max Podemski, an urban planner for the city of Los Angeles and lifelong architecture buff, has spent his career in and around these buildings. Deftly combining his years of experience with extensive research, Podemski walks the reader through the history of our dwelling spaces—and offers a blueprint for how time-tested urban planning models can help us build the homes the United States so desperately needs. In A Paradise of Small Houses, Podemski charts how these dwellings have evolved over the centuries according to the geography, climate, population, and culture of each city. He introduces the reader to styles like Chicago’s prefabricated workers cottages and LA’s car-friendly dingbats, illuminating the human stories behind each city’s iconic housing type. Through it all, Podemski interrogates the American values that have equated home ownership with success and led to the US housing crisis, asking, “How can we look to the past to build the homes, neighborhoods, and cities of the future that our communities deserve?”

    Summary:
    'OSHO SINGLE': This is an 'Osho Single', a short audio selected from one of the many series of Osho Talks. We all feel sometimes like a stranger to ourselves, with uncomfortable feelings of having lost direction in life, feeling insecure and missing a kind of authenticity and centeredness in life. In a society where ideals of eternal happiness and beauty are dominating our life around the clock and being sad looks like failure. Understanding that life is not a 'selfie', always smiling and bubbling with happiness, Osho opens a different perspective in this talk, responding to a series of questions, which embraces life in a more total way, a life where insecurity is beautiful, a moving and changing world is embraced and discomfort, uneasiness and uprootedness are becoming part of an adventure called life. © & ℗ 1975 OSHO International Foundation

    Summary:
    INSTANT NATIONAL BESTSELLER • Included on The Guardian’s Best Recent Poetry • One of the Globe and Mail's most anticipated books of 2024 With A Year of Last Things, acclaimed novelist Michael Ondaatje returns to poetry, where he began his career over fifty years ago, and what a return it is. Born in Sri Lanka during the Second World War, Ondaatje was sent as a child to school in London, and later moved to Canada. While he has lived here since, these poems reflect the life of a writer, traveller and watcher of the world – describing himself as a “mongrel,” someone born out of diverse cultures. Here, rediscovering the influence of every border crossed, he moves back and forth in time, from a childhood in Sri Lanka to Moliere’s chair during his last stage performance, from icons in Bulgarian churches to the California coast and loved Canadian rivers, merging memory with the present, looking back on a life of displacement and discovery, love and loss. At first sight it is a glittering collection of fragments and memories – but small, intricate pieces of a life are precisely what matter most to Ondaatje. They make an emotional history. As he writes in the opening poem: “Reading the lines he loves / he slips them into a pocket, / wishes to die with his clothes / full of torn free stanzas / and the telephone numbers / of his children in far cities”. Poetry – where language is made to work hardest and burns with a gem-like flame – is what Ondaatje has returned to in this intimate history.

    Summary:
    En Crianza bíblica, Héctor Salcedo nos demuestra que la clave para enseñar, disciplinar y cultivar a nuestros hijos es poner el énfasis no solamente en lo que debemos hacer como padres sino en quienes debemos ser, con la ayuda de la Palabra de Dios. Como padres, intentamos sembrar la Palabra de Dios o “semilla” en nuestros hijos, pero antes de plantar, nos falta un paso muy importante. La crianza bíblica requiere que los padres procuren crear en el corazón de sus hijos una actitud receptiva y enseñable antes de sembrar. Crianza bíblica, es un estudio bíblico y una guía práctica para la “preparación del terreno” donde los padres van luego a “sembrar la disciplina e instrucción del Señor”. Según el autor, la crianza se compone de los siguientes elementos que se encuentran en Efesios 6:4, cada uno de los cuales debe desarrollarse adecuadamente: - “Padres” = Presencia - “No provoquen a ira...” = Terreno fértil - “Críenlos” = Devoción - “Disciplina” = Entrenamiento - “Instrucción” = Advertir o amonestar - “Del Señor” = Palabra de Dios Este material, aunque su objetivo es la crianza, trabaja mucho con los padres, pues asume que si los padres no son lo que deben ser entonces su crianza tampoco será todo lo que Dios desea. Deutoronomio 6:6 nos dice: “Estas palabras que yo te mando hoy, estarán en tu corazón…”. Es decir, antes de enseñar a nuestros hijos, debemos haber sido enseñados nosotros. Si los padres no somos discípulos fieles de la Palabra, es poco probable que seamos capaces de transmitir la verdad de Dios a la próxima generación. Biblical Parenthood In Biblical Parenthood, Hector Salcedo shows us that the key to teaching, disciplining, and nurturing our children is to focus not only what we should do as parents but what we should be, with the help of God’s Word. As parents, we try to sow God's Word or plant the 'seed' in our children, often miss an important step. Biblical parenting requires that parents seek to create in their children's hearts a receptive, teachable attitude before sowing. Biblical Parenthood is a Bible study and practical guide for 'preparing the ground' where parents will then 'sow the discipline and instruction of the Lord.' According to the author, parenting is composed of the following elements found in Ephesians 6:4, each of which must be properly developed: - 'Fathers' = Presence. - 'Provoke them not to wrath...' = Fertile ground. - 'Nurture them' = Devotion - 'Discipline' = Training - 'Instruction' = Warn or admonish. - 'From the Lord' = Word of God Although this book is meant to help us raise our children, it focuses on parents, for it assumes that if parents are not what they should be, then their child-rearing will not be all that God intended either. Deuteronomy 6:6 tells us, “These commandments that I give you today are to be on your hearts…' That is, before we teach our children, we must have been taught ourselves. If we, as parents, are not faithful disciples of the Word, it is unlikely that we will be able to pass on God's truths to the next generation.

    The perfect boyfriend only exists on paper…doesn’t he? Fresh off the heels of a bad breakup, Chloe Anderson poured her heart into penning the perfect boyfriend—and the result was an off-the-charts debut beach read that resonated with women worldwide. Now, Chloe’s scripted hero is headed for Hollywood, with her book destined to become a major motion picture. When Chloe gets wind that silver screen bad boy Liam Hamilton has been cast as the ideal-in-every-way hero of her novel, she’s horrified by the film director’s choice. How could a player like Liam possibly do Chloe’s perfect hero justice? Unafraid to speak her mind, Chloe lets her executive producer know she’s one hundred percent opposed to the casting. And oops—the call is on speakerphone, where the annoyingly attractive Hollywood star hears Chloe’s unbridled outrage firsthand. With Liam’s reputation already on the rocks, his agent concocts a PR plan to upgrade Liam’s image while putting the story—and the film—in the spotlight. The catch? During the movie’s filming in Chloe’s cute hometown of Stillwater, North Carolina, Chloe and Liam will fake a wholesome, committed relationship. Both stand to gain something from the arrangement. Liam’s fans will see him in a new light, while Chloe can boost her struggling social media following and further her writing career. What could possibly go wrong? As author and actor navigate the waters of the PR relationship, they’re unpre­pared when their professional agreement turns into an actual friendship. And when serious sparks start to fly—well, that’s an unread chapter for both of them. - Charming contemporary romance - Stand-alone novel - Book length: approximately 83,000 words
