Boston, Massachusetts: Shambhala, 1998. Trade Paperback. Very Good/No Jacket as Issued. Remainder dot to bottom edge. Rubbing to cover, otherwise book shows light shelf wear. Pages are clean and bright. Description: Facets of Unity presents the Enneagram of Holy Ideas as a crystal clear window on the true reality experienced in enlightened consciousness. Here we are not directed toward the psychological types but the higher spiritual realities they reflect. We discover how the disconnection from each Holy Idea leads to the development of its corresponding fixation, thus recognizing each types deeper psychological core. Understanding this core brings each Holy Idea within reach, so its spiritual perspective can serve as a key for unlocking the fixation and freeing us from its limitations.

Description: "This little-known work by Jeremy Bentham (1748-1832), the great English philosopher and originator of utilitarianism, was considered so controversial in its time that it was first published in 1822 under the pseudonym 'Philip Beauchamp.'

"By now it's commonplace to remark that more violence than good has been committed in the name of religion. The terrorist attacks of September 11 and the continuing Israeli-Palestinian strife confirm this age-old aphorism. Wake Forest religion professor Kimball has made something of a career out of speaking about the ways in which religion becomes evil. Every religion has the capacity to work either for good or evil, and he contends that there are five warning signs that we can recognize when religion moves toward the latter. Whenever a religion emphasizes that it holds the absolute truth - the one path to God or the only correct way of reading a sacred text - to the exclusion of the truth claims of all other religions and cultures, that religion is becoming evil . . ." - Publishers Weekly.

New York, New York: Jeremy P. Tarcher, 2004. Soft Cover. As New/No Jacket as Issued. Description: "We each hold deep-seated beliefs about three facets of our lives: what we do (and are not willing to do); what we know (and are certain that we don't know); and what we are (and are not). These are basic activities and we invest each of them with our life force. Yet they always slip through our fingers: Being, doing, and knowing come and go. In Caught in the Act, Toinette Lippe--with wit, a laser-sharp eye for detail, and a sense of the contemplative--brings us on a journey of daily awareness so that we can truly see the makeup and direction of these forces and how they shape our existence. With this book, we learn to give up the illusion of identifying with the thoughts, things, and activities that we call 'I'--a vital step on the spiritual path and in the search for an authentic life."
