Review

Print: $19.99

BISHNU PATHAK, Ph.D. and SUSMITA BASTOLA, Ph.D. -
Eastern philosophy (EP) has often been neglected in mainstream academic discourse. Philosophy is the way of looking at, understanding, interpreting, and fundamentally bringing together love and wisdom (lovism). This study contributes to a wider understanding of international relations and philosophies in a world where the balance of power is shifting and emerging as superpower countries India and China are increasingly growing in importance.

The objectives of this state-of-the-art book are four-fold: (1) to understand the fundamentals of the ancient EP; (2) to interpret basic concepts, thoughts, and teachings of classical international relation-related theories or peace spiritual insights of various wisdom within Chinese, Indian, Islamic, and Christian Missionaries; (3) to assist the Master's level students to participate actively in discussions and interpretations and to create insights and critical thinking methods accordingly; and (4) to share the outcomes of philosophy with like-minded actors/institutions globally.

Blessings in the Rain 90 Days of Encouragement through the Storm, by Lisa DeVinney

Print: $11.24

LISA DEVINNEY - “I will send down showers in season; there will be showers of blessing.” Ezekiel 34:26b NIV Are you in the midst of a storm, today? Are dark clouds looming above you while water is rising around you? Or do you find yourself fighting a battle that seems to test every fiber of your strength and faith? Or maybe you have a friend facing a difficult challenge, and you’d like to encourage them through their battle. Inspired by a friend’s courageous battle with cancer, Blessings in the Rain is a collection of Scripture verses and poems meant to encourage those who find themselves fighting battles of their own. Whether physical, mental or spiritual…the battles we face daily can easily cause us doubt, discouragement, despair, or fear. But God has an incredible way of taking what might have been meant to harm us, and instead use it for our good. He turns our storms into “showers of blessing.”

Swami Vivekananda’s History of Universal Religion and its Potential for Global Reconciliation, by Sister Gayatriprana

Print: $39.74

SISTER GAYATRIPRANA - In the words of Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902) this book is a history of Vedanta, a deeply subjective Indian spiritual tradition going back to prehistoric times. There God is experienced and known directly in the depths of the human soul. We learn of the social structures, philosophical schools and practices of self-transformation at its heart and how the tradition withstood a millennium of subjugation to Western Abrahamic religions with their extra-cosmic deity and deep distrust of Vedantic subjectivity. Vivekananda speaks from the level of vijnana that permits of integration of both Indian subjectivity and Western objectivism, opening a door to their conciliation with each other and indeed to any other of the global spiritual traditions. An artist, medical doctor and Vedantic nun, Gayatriprana seeks to integrate Western science and Vedanta, as in her doctoral thesis: Learning in Depth: A Case Study in Twin 5x5 Matrices of Consciousness: https://jeanmacphail.academia.edu”

Great Men and Women of the Bible, by Lisa DeVinney

Print: $34.99

LISA DEVINNEY -Heroes are people we look up to and admire, perhaps because of their great feats of strength and courage. The Bible is full of godly heroes who lived lives of courage, faith, and conviction. They were not always men and women of great natural ability. But God has always delighted in taking ordinary people, and using them to do extraordinary things, for Him.
These Sunday School lessons are meant to bring these Bible heroes to life, not just so we can admire what they’ve done, but also to encourage us to know that God might just be calling us to be modern heroes of faith, for Him..
We can find courage in reading how God faithfully provided for His heroes of the past. Our faith can grow, as we study time after time where God’s hand moved to protect and strengthen them. And we can be resolved that when God calls us, we can be ready to follow in the footprints of the Old and New Testament Heroes of faith.

Secret Knowledge of the Qu'ran (book), by S. M. Zakir Hussain

Print: $14.95

S.M. ZAKIR HUSSAIN - The Qur’an claims that it is the Word of God. It also says that the proof is there in the pattern of the Word itself. But until now no work has ever exhibited what some of the patterns are. This is perhaps the first book that clearly shows that some easy analysis of such patterns makes it evident that the claim of the Qur’an is not only true but surprising too.
