Publisher's Summary:

A brilliant scholar who entered Yale at age 13 already fluent in Latin, Greek, and Hebrew, Jonathan Edwards led many of the revivals during the period of the Great Awakening in the early 1740's. Edwards is perhaps best known for his "fire and brimstone" approach to preaching which emphasized the sovereignty of God, the depravity of humankind, the reality of hell, and the necessity of a conversion experience. His powerful sermons relied on strong rhetoric intended to elicit an emotional response from listeners. Experience the reasoning of the great Puritan philosopher in his sermons, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God," the most famous sermon in American history, and "Pardon for the Greatest of Sinners."

Publisher's Summary:

Completed just four years after his escape from Tibet and four years after completing his religious education, the Dalai Lama's classic text on Buddhist philosophy is a thorough but succinct overview of Buddhist doctrines as they have been practiced in Tibet for a thousand years. Among the many topics the Dalai Lama discusses in his work are the need for religious peace, the path to achieving meditative stabilization, reincarnation, and the importance of kindness and compassion. This invaluable handbook provides a compendium of Buddhist doctrine and practice that is both dense and rich - serving at once as a summation of knowledge and as an invitation to further study.

If you want to know what the Buddha taught and how the path to Enlightenment is organized, read this book.

THis is the first book His Holiness wrote after he arrived in India. It is pure, strong, clear

Buddhist doctrine according to the sutras and Tibetan tradition. All of his other books

are basically commentaries on this first and seminal text. If you want to know what

the Buddha taught precisely,read this book.

With Gampopa's Jewel Ornament of Liberation, and The Tibetan Tradition of

Mental Development by Geshe Dargey, this book will give you the

information you really need. Outlining the path from the beginning thru

the stages of meditation and Enlightenment, the book contains much

information difficult to find elsewhere. True to the original teachings of

the Buddha, its a must have for any serious Buddhist library. Read this book!

Great!

I read this and study it for my pursuit of enlightenment. Some things are a bit difficult to comprehend and I must go over them over and over, but I think they are supposed to be in order to help me learn and work for such a purpose. (I believe there's even a section that discusses this concept at one point).

Masterful introduction.

This is the thesis of H. H. The Dalai Lama. Giving a strong foundation in the basic principles of Buddhism, this book builds to explain in detail the various states of meditation and connects each point to the other for a grand and wonderful whole picture.

This powerful book is short enough to be read in one day, but profound enough to be studied for years. And as always it retains the warm and straight foreward manner in which this wonderful author is known for teaching. Also for those unfamiliar with the Dalai Lama's other books, most of them are compilations from lectures, etc. This book was actually written by him.

Blessings and peace to all beings!

Title: Beyond Zero Point

Author: Gregg Braden

Narrator: Gregg Braden

Length: 3 hrs

Language: English

Release date: 12-17-99

Publisher: Sounds True

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 78 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Religious Figures

Publisher's Summary:

With his best seller Awakening to Zero Point, earth scientist and author Gregg Braden offered a stunning theory: that our planet has now entered a rare geophysical phase predicated millennia ago by ancient cultures across the globe - a "Shift of the Ages", that is transforming your consciousness even as you read this. On Beyond Zero Point, Braden shares new scientific research essential to understanding the prophecies of the Essenes, Hopis, Mayans, Egyptians, and others. Hidden within these ancient teachings, asserts Braden, is a universal set of sacred technologies meant specifically for us at this crucial point in human history. The secret of these tools is learning to see how the outer world mirrors the inner conditions of our consciousness. With this knowledge, each of us can transcend ordinary awareness, align ourselves with the external forces around us, and directly participate in the great challenges that lie ahead.

WOW

I had not heard this information before. My eyes are open now. I want to know more about these things. I wish everyone would listen to this book.

Why should you READ THIS ??

global changes in genetics, geomagnetics, climate and others, that used to occur trough hundreds of thousands of years (or even millons) are now beying documented happening in one or two of our generations. This is happening even as the media talks about something else.

This book is precise and right to the point. Filled with easy to understand facts (not science fiction) and I assure you it will open your eyes wide and make you whant to investigate a little further. An EXCELLENT starting point, but after this you will spend some time on the net searching and learning more and more since this is a subject you can not ignore. Narrated by the author, he does a very good job at keepeng you focused.

Hits the spot

This book has been a life altering experience. The progression of information is excellent. The author ties a great deal of information together in a meaningfull and understandable way.

Awe inspiring

This lecture opens your mind to beautiful and optomistic views about our future as it relates to our past. A well thought out and insightful listen. I would recomend to anyone willing to think outside the box.

new opportunities for the Church in a postmodern world

Soul Tsunami is a whoppinâ big book (450 pages) by Leonard Sweet. It explores the cultural changes that present new opportunities for the Church in a postmodern world. If the Church doesnât adapt, it will become irrelevant. Itâs sink or swim time.

What is a soul tsunami? Leonard Sweet explains it this way: âA spiritual tsunami has hit postmodern culture. This wave will build without breaking for decades to come. The wave is this: People want to know God. They want less to know about God or know about religion than to know God.â

The book was loaded with brilliant insights and ideas for Christians to grapple with in terms of what is important to millennials and how that effects evangelism, the shape of our message, and even what our church services could look like to meet the evolving needs of new generations.

Sweet offers relevant insights such as, âPostmodern evangelism is recognizing that God is already at work in peopleâs lives before we arrived on the scene, and that our role is helping people to see how God is present and active in their lives, calling them home.â

People are leaving the church in droves because it doesnât meet their need to experience God. The author says, âPostmoderns want something more than new products; they want new experiences, especially new experiences of the divine.â

Old models donât work, but churches have been slow to adapt to the changing demands. For instance, âPostmoderns donât want to be preached at; they want to be given a mission.â

I felt the chapters were heavy laden with cultural facts and observations, which grew wearisome to read. I would have liked to have seen fewer facts and more scriptural rationale for changing the status quo. Still, Church leaders would do well to read this book and explore ways to do church differently.

I, for one, am tired of the Church being a social club that does the exact same things, the exact same ways forever. As Leonard Sweet explains, âThe church is bursting at the seams with rationality, decency, order, dignity, and predictability. What it needs is the holy intoxications of foolishness, humor, craziness, outrageousness, creative disorder, and passion.â

And these changing timesâthis New Reformation Eraâcall for creativity. The message, of course, will remain the same, but the delivery and methods will need to morph to ride the wave of change.

This review, along with additional book quotes, first appeared on my blog, ChristyBower.com.

Fantastic book about postmodernism

This book was an excellent resource to learn about postmodernism. Not only did it help to define what it is (if that is really possible), but it also helped the reader to identify with the postmodern generation.

Great story

I enjoyed the story but the reader makes the main character sound like a whiny brat!

Summer Rain is a visionary

The content was both educational and spiritual. I have both read this and listen to the e-copy.

Exercise in frustration

I never got far enough to find out if the author had a great message or not. The narrator slaughtered this book with an often fatal mistake made by Caucasions trying to act like they understand a foreign person by feigning the accent. OUCH!!!

Dreamwalkerq

I usually don't write these reviews but I thought if I can spare others the pain that I sufferred listening to this dribble then I should do so.

Length: 3 hrs

Language: English

Release date: 12-15-99

Publisher: Phoenix Books

Ratings: 4 of 5 out of 20 votes

Genres: Bios & Memoirs, Religious Figures

Publisher's Summary:

In what may be her most important message to the world, Mary Summer Rain describes her vision of the visit of an archangel who speaks of the spiritual condition of the human race. His message is a troubling one, if not unexpected: the egotism, arrogance, and materialism of our current path are leading us to destruction. Written in the format of an extended dialogue on the 10 Commandments, The Visitation is a wake-up call to humanity, a plea for each of us to make the personal choices that alone can re-align humanity with the eternal Way and stop the oncoming disaster for ourselves, our planet, and our children.

good

Loved the material. But I was disappointed by the narration. Could have gotten someone who sounded less like Joan Rivers. It would have been more enjoyable.

The Visitation

This book is inspiring, informative, uplifting, and motivating! It is the story of an archangel coming to visit and the conversation that takes place in a little wooden cabin in the woods.Really insightful, a reality check for all the people caught in their 9 to 5 bubble and a real view of what is taking place in the bigger picture, where our choices take us as a people, human people. DEFINATELY RECOMMEND THIS!!! The whole world should hear, read this at least once. Very sobering...

Never Gets Old

Mary Summer Rain had written this book as part of a four book series that held a lot of great information. It was fun to read these books during some quiet time for myself. Although I love reading her books I do wish she had used someone else to do the narration of these books. Sometimes writers that write wonderful books as Mary Summer Rain has just do not have the voice is not suitable for story telling. Still I love her works and long for the day that she will write some more.
