Lighting the Lamp Within by Jyoti Sondhi Pdf

An extraordinary personal story of spiritual awakening by an ordinary housewife, with spiritual insights for everyday people, A simple yet profound shift in consciousness is the way to light your spiritual lamp within, says Jyoti Sondhi in 'Lighting the Lamp Within'. This is the Light that all religious and spiritual traditions speak of, that shines away confusion, delusion, and suffering. Jyoti has glimpsed it. Chances are, you have too. Jyotis journey is a personal one, and now she shares the lessons she learned on her own path with you, the seeker. She succeeds in bridging the gap between dogmatic religious beliefs, and spiritual wakefulness that now informs her life. Why look to external power, ego and pleasures to feel complete when you are already infused with the energy of love? she asks. Jyoti discusses potent practices and realizations that can help change fears to love, obstacles to stepping-stones, and emptiness to completion. In so doing, and in just humbly letting be, she provides a roadmap to joyous reconnection with our true identity in the One Presence. So why attend to the unflashy thoughts of an ordinary housewife, who found herself graced by a spiritual awakening? The answer is: precisely because it is so ordinary, so personally accessible and affecting. Jo- Ann Langseth, independent reviewer

The Unmistakable Touch of Grace by Cheryl Richardson Pdf

"Every event we experience and every person we meet has intentionally been put in our path to help us lead more conscious and fulfilled lives," says Cheryl Richardson, the New York Times bestselling author of Take Time for Your Life, Life Makeovers, and Stand Up for Your Life. In her new book -- her most personal work to date -- she'll show you that, once you learn to view your life from this perspective, the person who smiles at you while you're walking down the street is no longer a stranger, the phone call from an old friend who crossed your mind the day before is no longer a surprise, and the failed relationship that left you brokenhearted is no longer a source of bitterness and pain. Instead, these experiences -- examples of what Richardson calls "the unmistakable touch of grace" -- are seen as blessings in disguise, gifts that make you stronger, more conscious, and, ultimately, more alive. To read this beautiful, intimate, and profoundly inspiring book is like having a conversation with Richardson herself. Filled with illuminating stories, provocative experiments, and striking examples of how grace has influenced her own life, Richardson will help you recognize that your life is being influenced, too, in ways you may never have imagined. The Unmistakable Touch of Grace helps you to see the hidden miracles that occur every day -- and gives you the courage to use them to make your life more meaningful, magical, hopeful, and complete.

In Search of Spiritual Intelligence by Betty Steinhauer Pdf

My name is Betty Steinhauer. I have no address. I own very little besides what I carry with me as I roam the streets. Just stuff bundled in 9-10 suitcases parked with friends across the world. For me, being homeless is part of a bigger plan. After being hit by a car several years ago not long after retiring, I had an epiphany. I realised that I had been on my own spiritual journey since my first visit to India in 1990. Since then, I have travelled to 155 countries, sometimes as a tourist, sometimes on business, sometimes for my charity. I have made friends all over the world. But, I still had unanswered questions. So, I decided to sell everything, pack up my life and travel the world with a difference. This time I would journey not as a tourist but as a traveller wanting to learn from every wise person who crossed my path, and every challenging situation I found myself in. I would document my learning from the people I interviewed across the world. And so was born my new book, In Search of Spiritual Intelligence.

Signposts by Denise Linn Pdf

Whether we are conscious of it or not, the universe is communicating to us through signs. Native peoples have always known how to interpret these powerful messages, but with the development of technology and the increasing stress of our modern lives, we have become more and more removed from our connection to the earth and from our inner wisdom. We have lost our ability to decipher the signs that surround us and that appear in our dreams, and we are largely unable to tap in to our innate intuition. Drawing on her Cherokee Indian heritage and her experience with the native tribes of Africa, Australia and New Zealand, international healer Denise Linn helps us to reconnect with the magic of our inner selves so that we may properly interpret these signs and the true meanings of our dreams - and make the right decisions and choices in our lives. Including a comprehensive dictionary of signs and dreams for ease of reference, SIGNPOSTS is essential reading for anyone who wishes to truly hear the `whispers of the universe'.

Signposts on the Road to Forgiveness by Mary Crawford Pdf

Signposts on the Road to Forgiveness is a book about forgiveness and so much more. It’s a call to come to the spiritual place for which you were born. It’s a call to a deeper relationship with the Lord. Ten chapters lay a scriptural foundation concerning the plan God has had for you from the beginning. Twenty signposts then give scriptural directives to help you make these truths a reality in your life. Learn how to get beyond the pain you’ve experienced at the hands of others, even as Jesus did. See how to forgive others and how to forgive yourself, so you can truly fulfill your destiny. Understand what the Bible really teaches about gossip, anger, and the Christian’s responsibility in judging others. Take a fresh, scriptural look at when to remit sins, when to retain sins, when to confront, and when to walk away. Whether you have just embarked on your spiritual quest or you’ve been a Christian for years, God wants to take you on a walk with Him that will liberate and heal you, enabling you to be all He intended you to be. Hear anew His call to follow Him on this spiritual road purchased for you by His own blood. Lift up your eyes and behold His glory. Experience the restoration of the joy of your salvation. Rejoice as you continue on your personal journey with Him, recognizing and following His signposts along the way.
