In this candid, insightful, and unconventional memoir, Goldie Hawn invites us to join her in an inspirational look back at the people, places, and events that have touched her. It is the spiritual journey of a heart in search of enlightenment. With her trademark effervescence, Goldie delivers a personal look at private and powerful events that carried her through life: her father’s spontaneity; her mother’s courage; and the joy of being a daughter, a sister, a parent, and a lover. She writes about her childhood dreams of becoming a ballerina. She takes us on a tour of her go-go years in 1960s New York City, the phenomenon of TV’s Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In, her Oscar-winning debut in Cactus Flower and Hollywood stardom. She writes intimately about the challenges of love, anger and fear, and the importance of compassion and integrity. She speaks openly about her family, her partner Kurt Russell, her children; her faith, her curiosity for that which she doesn’t yet know, and her thirst for knowledge. Most of all, it is a trip back through a life well lived by a woman well loved.

The Lotus Quest unveils a stunning vision of Japan's feudal era, as Griffiths visits shrines, ruins, gardens and wild landscapes, and meets priests and archaeologists, philosophers and anthropologists, gardeners and botanists, poets and artists, and even dines on the lotus in a Tokyo café. Beautifully illustrated, intensely atmospheric and full of suspense, The Lotus Quest shows how the deep crimson of the lotus runs like a tracer dye, tracking the spread, fusion and fission of the world's great civilizations.
Pranayam, Kundalini and Hatha Yoga by Acharya Bhagwan Dev Pdf
Pranayam, Kundalini & Hathayoga form a part of our ancient heritage which has lost their relevance in the fast moving modern world. On the contrary, they have become indispensable because now we want perfect health in such a stressful and fast moving life. If you devote just half-an-hour every day to these practices you will find their favourable impact on your general health, both mental and physical, in only a couple of weeks time. As far as Kundalini awakening is concerned, it is the end result of all Yogic Sadhana. It is the experience which makes you realise all your talent and potentials since it establishes a communion between you and the supreme. This is the ultimate Samadhi. But it is very difficult to attain this level without the guidance of a Guru. It is only he, who makes your body capable of 'bearing' these experiences through the rigorous practices of Pranayam and Hathayoga.
