Although the book was not quite what i would have liked it to be the transaction was quick and efficient.             Stillness Speaks144 reviews Eckhart Tolle New World Library, 2003 Stillness Speaks This is a wonderfully thought provoking CD. I find myself listing to it over and over again! It is well worth your time and money.             Cultivating Stillness8 reviews Eva Wong Shambhala, 1992 Ancient Chinese "Secrets" Revealed - For Those Who Are Ready This book is based on an ancient Taoist text written by Lao Tzu. It is about changing oneself ... creating and maintaining internal harmony, despite external circumstances. Due to its esoteric nature, i.e., internal alchemy ... the author, a Chinese American, was guided by a Taoist master when learning from the original text. With this book, the author becomes our very own "master", as she guides ...             Yoga: The Spirit and Practice of Moving into Stillness54 reviews Erich Schiffmann Pocket, 1996 the very best this is the third copy i have bought to give to a friend. i am a yoga and meditation teacher. i also suggest erichs book to my students. i really think you can put all other yoga books aside and i really like many of them, but the way erich writes you can feel the poses.the last chapter on meditation is the very best. read every word and go out into the world and do every word. this is the ...             A Stillness at Appomattox (Army of the Potomac, Vol. 3)34 reviews Bruce Catton Peter Smith Publisher, 1992 A Masterpiece of Civil War History It would be an almost impossible task for anyone to figure out just how many books have been written dealing with the American Civil War. It would also be difficult to determine which Civil War historians are most often cited by their peers but there is no doubt that Bruce Catton would be near or more likely at the top of any such list. The reason for this is quite simply that Catton was one of ...             Playing At Stillness (New Odyssey Series) (New Odyssey Series) Rhina P. Espaillat Truman State University Press, 2005 Playing at Stillness displays her range—from exquisitely executed formal verse to wonderfully fluid and appealing free verse poems. Humorous and playful, astute and poignant, she never gets in her way—her craft does all the work and we delight in the results. The poems keep surprising me. Again and again as I read them, I feel deeply grateful to this wonderfully generous and skilled writer, Rhina Espaillat. —Julia Alvarez             Perfect Brilliant Stillness21 reviews David Carse Paragate Publishing, 2005 Throw this book in the Advaita Stew and serve it generously it's a great read. This is a very skillful account on the subject of Advaita by the entity david as he describes himself. He is an excellent story teller with a very engaging approach to this subject. I note several negative feedbacks regarding this book which I found a bit odd. Firstly, awakening is not boring it is in fact the contrary and generally it is from illusion of ego that one arrives at such a comment. ...             Stillness: Biodynamic Cranial Practice and the Evolution of Consciousness5 reviews Charles Ridley North Atlantic Books, 2006 rest in what is This isn't your bio-cranio-dynamic toolbox; it is, instead, a profound and precisely nuanced exploration of the feel of consciousness as it traverses the tissue we know as the body. No hammers, saws, intentions, suggestions, or directed energy; here the practitioner is invited to rest in what is, without desires or expectations. If this intrigues you, this is the book for you.             Moving toward Stillness: Lessons in Daily Life from the Martial Ways of Japan13 reviews Dave Lowry Tuttle Publishing, 1999 Useful collection of essays This books brings together a number of Lowry's columns over the years on Zen and the martial arts, and you can learn a lot that is worthwhile about Zen and how a Zen master would apply these principles in everyday life from reading this book. There is no doubt in my mind that many martial artists and westerners in general could benefit from adopting certain Zen principles in their lives, ...             The Silent Question: Meditating in the Stillness of Not-Knowing5 reviews Toni Packer Shambhala, 2007 You will be changed by this book I loved this book for many reasons. A subtitle for the book could easily have been "Beyond Buddhism" although no doubt Ms. Packer would, I imagine, argue that such a title would make no sense as there is nothing to get beyond. Nevertheless the influences of her Zen background permeates the work but do not shadow it. The most exciting part of the book is that the history, theoretical ...             Stillness Speaks Inspiration Deck: 50 Inspiration Cards1 review Eckhart Tolle New World Library, 2004 Find the Place of Stillness "Unhappiness ultimately arises not from the circumstances of your life but from the conditioning of your mind." - Eckhart Tolle Through his book Stillness Speaks, author Eckhart Tolle shows us how to find tranquility and our own true nature in stillness. According to Tolle, when we connect to the stillness within, we move beyond our active minds and tumultuous emotions to discover great ...             Dynamic Stillness Part One: The Practice of Trika Yoga Swami Chetanananda Rudra, 2001 Trika yoga suggests a way to live creatively, integrating physical, intellectual, and emotional energy with a more spiritual existence. "...presents, in sophisticated simplicity and...forthrightness, a key to understanding Tantric tradition and its implications for the modern world."--L.A. Times.             December Stillness (Avon Flare Book)20 reviews Mary Downing Hahn Avon Flare, 1990 December Stillness I thought this book was a wonderful story of a girl-Kelly-who, through some investigating of a vietnam vetran, found that there are reasons that people are having trouble groing on with their lives after the war. It had a good plot to it, and, though predictable in a way, kept you interested in what would happend. Also, it was a very emotional book, because when Kelley finally begins to ...             A Stillness at Appomattox. Bruce. Catton Pocket Books, 1958             Keeping Silence: Christian Practices for Entering Stillness3 reviews C. W. McPherson Morehouse Publishing, 2002 Great for anyone hoping to quiet their internal chaos When I was learning how to deepen my prayer life, a priest told me to give considerable focus to meditative and silent prayer to connect with God. Just sitting still for 5 minutes and being quiet is really difficult in this hectic world! How does one quiet down all the "noise" on the inside? When this book was recommended, I thought it might be about weird yoga postures or crazy techniques. ...             A Stillness in Bethlehem (Gregor Demarkian Holiday Mysteries)1 review Jane Haddam Crimeline, 1993 A Norman Rockwell town at Christmas time... Haddam repeats a holiday here (Christmas was previously covered in _Not a Creature Was Stirring_, the first volume of the series). The events of _A Stillness in Bethlehem_ take place immediately after _A Feast of Murder_; at a minimum, you should try to read that one before reading this one. This is one of the few Demarkian mysteries that *don't* involve poison. (The recurring use of poison makes ...             In the Stillness You Will Know: Exploring the Paths of Our Ancient Belonging4 reviews Barabara Fiand Crossroad General Interest, 2002 Encountering the Depths of Human Longing In this penetrating exploration of deep human longings, as she experienced them in the dying of her dearest friend, Fiand writes of the pain that is homesickness for our beginning in God. Deftly integrating principles of quantum physics and sensitively chosen excerpts from literature, she shows how whatever happens to one person affects the whole, because we are all essentially interconnected. ...              search for books ancient, appomattox, belonging, bethlehem, biodynamic, brilliant, christian, consciousness, cultivating, december, demarkian, dynamic, entering, evolution, exploring, holiday, inspiration, keeping, martial, meditating, mysteries, not-knowing, odyssey, practice, practices, question, silence, stillness, tadashi, theater books:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
