Hacia lo salvaje: La senda espiritual del territorio
by Solitude of AlannaAtrévete a adentrarte en el lado salvaje de la naturaleza. Un viaje por el territorio que nos acoge, nos rodea y nos define. Un reencuentro con la naturaleza dual: la que nos abriga y provee, y su cara opuesta, cruel y oscura. Un retorno a lo esencial, al equilibrio que rige toda existencia. Para emprender el camino que propone este nuevo libro necesitaremos quitarnos la ropa y la piel que habitamos, impregnadas de sesgos y tabúes. Deberemos correr hacia lo salvaje, hacia las entrañas del bosque y las profundidades del mar. Allí donde no ha llegado aún la mano civilizadora del hombre y los antiguos númenes moran, poderosos y agrestes. Cuando regresemos del viaje, quizás hayamos llegado a comprender que solo dejando atrás nuestra piel podremos llegar a ser conscientes de que estamos hechos del territorio que nos rodea. Y de que podemos construir una relación más sana, respetuosa y equitativa con el entorno, y con todos los espíritus que habitan en él. Un recorrido por el lado salvaje de la naturaleza para comprender que esta no puede someterse al hombre, y que no existe para complacernos. Un viaje introspectivo que nos conecta con aquello que somos en esencia. Un nuevo libro de Natalia Saldaña, Solitude of Alanna en redes, referente en espiritualidad y territorio, que ya conquistó a miles de lectores con En mi bosque interior.

Hackerare l'Aldilà: Consigli Pratici dal Flipside
by Richard Martini“Tutti coloro che sono esistiti, da sempre, continuano a esistere nel Flipside ed è possibile porre loro domande dirette.” Questa è la strabiliante premessa di “Hackerare l’Aldilà”; nel libro si spiega come sia possibile ottenere “nuove informazioni” da persone non più presenti sul pianeta. Queste “interviste dall’aldilà” sono state condotte, con l’aiuto di vari medium, sia con persone sotto ipnosi profonda sia con persone pienamente coscienti, e tuttavia in grado di accedere e di ricordare dettagli di vite precedenti. Queste testimonianze offrono consigli pratici (“dritte dall’aldilà”) su come navigare tra le nostre vite e migliorare il nostro pianeta. Richard Martini, autore dei best-seller (entrambi al primo posto su Amazon Kindle) “Flipside: Guida Turistica per Navigare nell’Aldilà” (è anche un film) e “L’Aldilà è Meraviglioso” (Vol. 1 & 2), nonché ospite frequente del talk-show radiofonico statunitense “Coast to Coast”, i cui argomenti principali sono il paranormale e le teorie della cospirazione, “intervista” una varietà di persone che non sono più sul pianeta. Interviste con qualcuno che sostiene di essere Edgar Cayce, il “profeta dormiente”, tre medium differenti che sostengono di riuscire a parlare con Amelia Earhart, “conversazioni” con Robin Williams, con l’artista conosciuto come Prince e con persone che sostengono di avere conosciuto Colui che era definito in tutto il mondo “l’Alfa e l’Omega.” Martini esamina queste testimonianze con mente aperta e invita il lettore a fare altrettanto. Citazioni di persone che sono state intervistate: “Questo libro metterà in discussione i dubbi e le credenze delle persone. È una traduzione dell’etereo.” Edgar Cayce tramite la medium Jennifer Shaffer. (JenniferShaffer.com) “Buona fortuna a te, per aver fatto l’incredibile affermazione che esiste un aldilà.” Howard Schultz, un amico scomparso di r

Hadrian the Seventh
by Frederick Rolfe'If there be one place in all this orb of earth where a secret is a Secret, that place is a Roman Conclave' Part novel, part daydream, part diatribe, this strange masterpiece tells the story of George Arthur Rose, a poor, frustrated writer who lives in a shabby bedsit, saving his cigarette ends and eating soup - until one day he is made Pope. As the first English pontiff in five centuries, he is a mass of contradictions: infallible and petulant, humble and despotic. Yet Hadrian the Seventh is really a knowing self-portrait of its flamboyant author Baron Corvo, a would-be priest with aristocratic pretensions, and one of the greatest eccentrics of English literature.

Haggai and Zechariah: Rebuilding with Hope
by Carroll Stuhlmueller CP, SVDThe collected proclamations ascribed to two little-known post-exilic prophets, Haggai and Zechariah, represent a bridge between the traditions of classical Israelite religion and the dramatic changes essential to the preservation of the fragile Restoration community. Carroll Stuhlmueller's section-by-section, verse-by-verse analysis and exposition focus on the prophetic word as addressed not only to Israel in this "time of small beginnings" but also to the Church today. His primary concern is the theological message of the prophets, yet ever with an eye toward their historical context, literary form, and cultural setting.

Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi (Apollos Old Testament Commentary Series)
by Anthony R. PettersonThe post-exilic prophetic books of Haggai, Zechariah and Malachi are set in times of great adversity. God's people are minnows in the vast Persian Empire, and the promises of the earlier prophets for a glorious restoration of Jerusalem seem far from their experience. These books, from beginning to end, restate God's intention to establish his glorious kingdom, and explain what this means for the lives of his people. For Haggai and Zechariah, the immediate challenge was to rebuild the temple in view of God's return. For Malachi, the challenge was covenant unfaithfulness which had infected the people?s attitudes towards God, and how this needed to change in view of future judgment. God used each of these prophets to remind the people of the true King and to re-order their lives and their community in the light of the reality of his coming kingdom. In this Apollos Old Testament Commentary, Anthony Petterson offers detailed commentary on these prophetic books, setting them in their wider biblical-theological context. He shows the connections between the post-exilic world and our own, and explains how these books contain a vital message for the church today, living in the gap between promise and reality. The Apollos Old Testament Commentary series aims to take with equal seriousness the divine and human aspects of Scripture. It expounds the books of the Old Testament in a scholarly manner accessible to non-experts, and shows the relevance of the Old Testament to modern readers. Intended primarily to serve the needs of those who preach from the Old Testament, they are equally suitable for use by scholars and all serious students of the Bible.
Haggai, Zechariah, Malachi: An Introduction And Commentary (Tyndale Old Testament Commentaries #Volume 28)
by Andrew E. HillDespite the return of the Hebrews from the Babylonian exile, selfishness, apathy and despair crippled their community spirit. In response to this distress, God raised up three prophetic voices in Jerusalem. Haggai rallied the people to rebuild the Second Temple. Zechariah was given visions of the return of the glory of the Lord to Zion. Malachi preached repentance, covenant justice and restoration of proper temple worship. Andrew Hill's excellent commentary on these oracles shows how they remain timely for the Christian church?s worship and mission in the world.

Hagiography in Byzantium: Literature, Social History and Cult (Variorum Collected Studies)
by Stephanos EfthymiadisInvolving a vast number of texts, saintly heroes and authors, Byzantine hagiography stands out as a field of scholarly research highly rewarding for both the philologist and the historian. The studies reproduced in this volume cover a chronological range from late antiquity to the Paleologan era. They bring together annotated editions of specific texts and discussions of their contexts, complemented by comprehensive surveys of saintly and monastic cult. Having appeared over the last twenty years, they also illustrate and reflect upon the significant development and re-orientation which has marked the study of hagiography in recent decades.
Hagitude: Reimagining the Second Half of Life
by Sharon BlackieRADICALLY REIMAGINE THE SECOND HALF OF LIFE “There can be a certain perverse pleasure, as well as a sense of rightness and beauty, in insisting on flowering just when the world expects you to become quiet and diminish.” — from the book For any woman over fifty who has ever asked “What now? Who do I want to be?” comes a life-changing book showing how your next phase of life may be your most dynamic yet. As mythologist and psychologist Sharon Blackie describes it, midlife is the threshold to decades of opportunity and profound transformation, a time to learn, flourish, and claim the desires and identities that are often limited during earlier life stages. This is a time for gaining new perspectives, challenging and evolving belief systems, exploring callings, uncovering meaning, and ultimately finding healing for accumulated wounds. Western folklore and mythology are rife with brilliantly creative, fulfilled, feisty, and furious role models for aging women, despite our culture’s focus on youthfulness. Blackie explores these archetypes in Hagitude, presenting them in a way sure to appeal to contemporary women. Drawing inspiration from these examples as well as modern mentors, you can reclaim midlife as a liberating, alchemical moment rich with possibility and your elder years as a path to feminine power.
Hai vissuto? Hai amato? Ha avuto importanza?
by Bernard LevineOgni mattina, Dio manda due angeli dal cielo per venire a trovarci. C'è una storia che dice che ogni mattina, Dio manda due angeli dal cielo per venire a trovarci. Chi sono questi angeli? Incontriamoli ... Il primo angelo si chiama "Chiedi" ... e il secondo angelo si chiama "Preghiera". Entrambi gli angeli portano dei cestini. Quando guardiamo cosa c'è nel cestino del primo angelo, troviamo che il cestino è pieno, fino in cima, traboccante delle nostre richieste di preghiera a Dio, come "dammi una grande casa, voglio una macchina nuova, trovami un lavoro migliore e voglio un sacco di soldi". Ora, quando guardiamo per vedere cosa c'è all'interno del cestino del secondo angelo, troviamo che è vuoto ... dicono, che solo a volte, proprio in fondo al cestino ci sono una o due parole di lode. Pensate a Dio ... ogni giorno, Dio ha molte e molte delle nostre richieste di soddisfare sempre di più le nostre "richieste" e "desideri". Saremo mai soddisfatti e grati per ciò che già abbiamo? Ditemi, abbiamo pregato tutto questo tempo supplicando Dio di soddisfarci e, tuttavia, non abbiamo quasi mai tempo per ringraziare Dio che siamo vivi, e lodarLo per ogni battito di cuore ed ogni respiro. Non sarebbe meraviglioso se volessimo cercare, e dirigere le nostre preghiere per dare lode e gloria al '"Donatore" prima di concentrare così tanto del nostro tempo di preghiera sulla ricerca dei "Doni" e di ciò che possiamo ottenere da Dio. Ogni giorno facciamo di Dio il nostro piacere ... perché Dio è tutto ciò di cui abbiamo bisogno!
