Psychology and the Chakra System as a Path to the Self
Anodea Judith
It is rare to find a Book that tackles issues as diverse as Jungian psychology, spirituality, metaphysics, somatic therapy, and the New Age in a single volume while still doing justice to each individually. It is rarer still to find a book whose diverse references together create a single, whole, and very powerful theory. Eastern Body, Western Mind is just such a book.
Anodea Judith's newest book on the chakra system explains this Eastern theory by way of Western psychology. Arranged schematically, the book uses the inherent structure of the chakra system as a map upon which to chart our Western understanding of individual development. This combination realizes the spiritual nature of personality development within the structural logic of the body, Each chakra is discussed in its own chapter. Body types specific to each chakra are also discussed, as are particular pathologies.

Barton Wright

by Barton Wright is a detailed exploration of the ceremonial shields used by the Pueblo peoples of the American Southwest. The book examines the cultural and spiritual significance of these shields, which were often adorned with symbolic designs representing various elements of nature, myth, and ancestral spirits.

Wright delves into the craftsmanship, the role of shields in Pueblo rituals and warfare, and the meanings behind the intricate symbols and patterns. The book also includes illustrations and photographs to highlight the artistry of the shields, providing readers with both visual and historical insight into their use.

This work is significant for those interested in Native American art, history, and spiritual traditions.

Hardcover (1 to 2 lbs)

Prehistorically, small hand-held shields are portrayed in Anasazi and Fremont rock paintings and petroglyphs from presumably around the thirteenth century, ideal for use with clubs in hand-to- hand combat. These are contemporaneous with numerous depictions of pedestrian shield bearers with large body shields. Historically the Apache, Comanche, and Ute shared design elements; Apache painting on rawhide is well-known for its use of serrations. Western Plateau and Kutenai "painted teeth as borders in parfleche motifs." Designs on prehistoric shields and on historic shields are both variable and repeated, the latter since the round field of the shield often dictates a predilection for certain solutions to decoration. Very few shield designs are exclusive to any one cultural or tribal group. A design commonly used on historic Rio Grande Pueblo shields: A characteristic pattern consisting of a wide band, often decorated with three or so circles, that cuts the shield face in two horizontally. Above are buffalo horns, and below a fan-shaped element suggestive of eagle tail feathers. The fact that shields were often obtained (as by the Navajo) from other tribes is a major factor, accounting for a broad distribution of designs and other features of manufacture during the historic period. In addition, during the early historic and even Protohistoric period, designs were often widely shared between different tribal groups. This was especially the case, once the horse was introduced and communication became fluid over vast territories.

The Failure of Technology and the Survival of the Indian Nations

by Jerry Mander who argues that while technology is often seen as progress, it has led to environmental degradation, cultural erosion, and a loss of meaning in human life. He critiques the assumption that technological development is always positive, pointing out how it disconnects humans from nature and each other. Mander highlights the ways in which corporate and government interests promote technology without considering its harmful effects on traditional cultures and the natural world.

A key aspect of the book is its focus on indigenous peoples, particularly Native American nations, who have historically resisted technological assimilation. Mander admires their ability to maintain a spiritual connection to nature and offers their worldview as a counterpoint to the dominant Western mindset.

The Failure of Technology and the Survival of the Indian Nations

Focuses on modern society's techno-war against indigenous peoples, arguing that such peoples' philosophy of the sacredness of the natural world offers a way to recover

Now he's decided that the only route to peace on his adopted planet is to remove anything-and anyone-who instigates conflict. He began by putting a fist through the Joker's chest, and he hasn't become any calmer.

Meanwhile, Batman believes that no matter what the crime, everyone deserves a fair trial. Now he's leading a resistance force against his former friend's authoritarian world government. The Green Lantern Corps have noticed the drastic wrongs being committed in that sector, and are on their way to intervene. But Superman has an important question for them- Why did they allow Krypton to die?

As action-packed as the video game phenomenon that inspired it, Injustice- Gods Among Us- Year Two-The Complete Edition tells the story of a world gone mad, and the godlike men and women who seek to set it on the right track in what they think is the best way.

Ben Witherington

by Hershel Shanks and Ben Witherington III explores the discovery and significance of an ancient ossuary (a box used for storing bones) that bears the Aramaic inscription: "James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus." The book delves into the historical, archaeological, and religious implications of this find, which is considered one of the most important discoveries related to early Christianity.

The authors examine the authenticity of the ossuary, discussing the archaeological context, the historical figure of James (the brother of Jesus), and the debates surrounding the ossuary's provenance and the inscription's genuineness. The book also explores the role of James in the early Christian community, shedding light on his influence and the historical connections between Jesus' family and the development of early Christianity.

The Dramatic Story and Meaning of the First Archaeological Link to Jesus and His Family

The first definitive account of what scholars and the media are calling 'the most important archaeological discovery' about Jesus and his family.

This is the definitive story of the recent discovery of the first-century ossuary (limestone bone box) with the legend 'James, son of Joseph, brother of Jesus', and its implications for understanding Jesus, his family (mother, father, brothers), his followers, the first Christians and the Jewish Christian movement in Jerusalem that James led. This ossuary is the first ever archaeological discovery directly confirming the existence of Jesus, and his relationship to his father, Joseph, and brother, James, who became the leader of the important Jewish Christian community in Jerusalem. No one is as qualified and well connected to recount the discovery and its authentication as Hershel Shanks, whose magazine first broke the story.

"A scientific detetective story with extremely high religious stakes."
