Klara's Truth: A Novel
by Susan Weissbach FriedmanIt is May 2014, and Dr. Klara Lieberman—forty-nine, single, professor of archaeology at a small liberal arts college in Maine, a contained person living a contained life—has just received a letter from her estranged mother, Bessie, that will dramatically change her life. Her father, she learns—the man who has been absent from her life for the last forty-three years, and about whom she has long been desperate for information—is dead. Has been for many years, in fact, which Bessie clearly knew. But now the Polish government is giving financial reparations for land it stole from its Jewish citizens during WWII, and Bessie wants the money. Klara has little interest in the money—but she does want answers about her father. She flies to Warsaw, determined to learn more. In Poland, Klara begins to piece together her father&’s, and her own, story. She also connects with extended family, begins a romantic relationship, and discovers her calling: repairing the hundreds of forgotten, and mostly destroyed, pre-War Jewish cemeteries in Poland. Along the way, she becomes a more integrated, embodied, and interpersonally connected individual—one with the tools to make peace with her past and, for the first time in her life, build purposefully toward a bigger future.
The Klausenberg Rebbe
by Combined EditionAs World War II raged and Hitler's Final Solution for European Jewry was brutally implemented, the Jewish people desperately needed a leader- a leader of extraordinary intellect, boundless devotion to the Almighty and His people, and most of all, superhuman mesiras nefesh, self sacrifice. Out of the blazing fires of the Nazi inferno came just such a man: Rabbi Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam, the Klausenberger Rebbe. From a young age his diligence and accomplishments in Torah study and his outstanding character marked him for greatness. But it was in the hellfires of Auschwitz, Dachau, and the Warsaw Ghetto that the enormity of the Klausenberger Rebbe's spirit became apparent for all to see. Suffering personal loss, tragedy and brutality that would drive an ordinary person to the depths of despair, the Klausenberger Rebbe soared to immeasurable spiritual heights. Refusing to compromise his observance of mitzvos in even the slightest way, Rav Yekusiel Yehudah Halberstam was a defiant inspiration to his suffering fellow Jews. With the war's end, his spirit unbroken despite his suffering, he inspired his fellow survivors, bringing hope to the hopeless and the light of faith to those whose world had been darkened.
Klesh Rahit Jeevan: क्लेश रहित जीवन
by Dada Bhagwanक्या आप जीवन में उठनेवाले विभिन्न क्लेशों से थक चुके हो ? क्या आप हैरान हो कि नित्य नए क्लेश कहाँ से उत्पन्न हो जाते हैं ? क्लेश रहित जीवन के लिए आपको केवल पक्का निश्चय करना है कि आप लोगों के साथ सारा व्यवहार समभाव से निपटाओगे। यह चिंता नहीं करनी कि आप इसमें सफल होंगे या नहीं। केवल दृढ निश्चय करना है। फिर आज या कल, जीवन में शांति आकर ही रहेगी। हो सकता है कि इसमें कुछ साल भी लग जाएँ। क्योंकि आपके बहुत चीकने कर्म हैं। यदि बीवी-बच्चों के साथ बहुत उलझे हुए कर्म हों तो निकाल करने में अधिक समय लग जाता है। करीबी लोगों के साथ उलझने क्रमशः ही समाप्त होती हैं। यदि आप एक बार समभाव से निकाल करने का दृढ निश्चय कर लेंगे तो आपके सभी क्लेशों का अंत आएगा। चिकने कर्मों का निकाल करते वक्त आपको अत्यंत जागृत रहना होगा। साँप चाहे कितना भी छोटा हो, आपको सावधानी रहते हुए आगे बढ़ना होगा। अगर आपने लापरवाही और सुस्ती दिखाई तो इन मामलों को सुलझाने में असफल होंगे। व्यवहार में सभी के साथ समभाव से निकाल करने के दृढ़ निश्चय के बाद, यदि कोई आपको कटु वाणी बोल दे और आपकी भी कटु वाणी निकल जाए, तो आपके बाहरी व्यवहार का कोई महत्व नहीं, क्योकि आपकी घृणा समाप्त हो चुकी है। और आपने समभाव से निकाल का दृढ़ निश्चय कर रखा है। घृणा अहंकार का भाव है और वाणी शरीर का भाव है। अगर आपने समभाव से निकाल करने का दृढ़ निश्चय किया है, तो आप अवश्य सफल होंगे तथा आपके सभी कर्म भी समाप्त होंगे। आज अगर आप किसी का लोन नहीं चुका पाते, तो भविष्य में ज़रूर चुकता कर पाएँगे। आपके ऋण दाता आपसे आखिरकर आपसे उगाही कर ही लेंगे। “प्रतिशोध के सभी भावनाओं से मुक्त होने के लिए आपको परम पूज्य दादाश्री के पास आकर ज्ञान ले लेना चाहिए। मैं आपको इसी जीवन में प्रतिशोध की सभी भावनाओं से मुक्त होने का रास्ता दिखाऊँगा। जीवन से थके हुए लोग मृत्यु क्यों ढूँढते हैं? ऐसा इसलिए क्योंकि वे जीवन के इस तनाव का सामना नहीं कर पाते। इतने अधिक दबाव में आप कितने दिन जीवित रह सकते हो ? कीड़े-मकोडों की तरह, आज का मनुष्य निरंतर संताप में है। मनुष्य का जीवन मिलने के बाद किसी को कोई दुःख क्यों हो? सारा संसार संताप में है। और जो संताप में नहीं है, वे काल्पनिक सुखों में खोए हुए है। इन दोनों छोरों के बीच संसार झूल रहा है। आत्मज्ञानी होने के बाद, आप सभी कल्पनाओं और वेदनाओं से मुक्त हो जाओगे।’

Klesh Vinanu Jivan: ક્લેશ વિનાનું જીવન
by Dada Bhagwanશું તમે જીવનમાં થતી અથડામણો થી કંટાળી ગયા છો? શું તમને અચરજ થાય છે કે અથડામણો કેમ થતી હશે? પરમ પૂજ્ય દાદાશ્રી કહે છે, “આત્મજ્ઞાન એ બધી અથડામણો થી મુક્તિ મેળવવાની ચાવી છે” “હવે તમારે બદલો લેવાની ભાવનાથી મુક્ત થવાનું છે, એ માટે તમે પરમ પૂજ્ય દાદાશ્રી (આધ્યાત્મિક વિજ્ઞાની ) પાસે આવો અને આત્મજ્ઞાન મેળવો તો તમે મુક્ત થશો. તમારે બધા વેરથી આ જ ભવમાં મુક્ત થવાનું છે અને હું તમને તેનો રસ્તો બતાવીશ. મનુષ્યનું જીવન આજે જંતુ જેવું થઇ ગયું છે. તેઓ સતત માનસિક દુઃખમાં છે. મનુષ્ય તરીકે જન્મ થયા પછી શા માટે માનસિક સંતાપ હોવો જોઈએ? આખું જગત ભઠ્ઠીમાં બફાઈ રહેલા શક્કરિયાની અવસ્થામાં છે, અને જો સંતાપ નથી, તો ત્યાં ભ્રાંતિ (મોહ)ની અવસ્થા વર્તે છે. આ પુસ્તકમાં પરમ પૂજ્ય દાદાશ્રી (આધ્યાત્મિક વિજ્ઞાની)નું, અથડામણ વિનાનું જીવન જીવવાની સમજણ, એની રીત, એનું મહત્વ રજુ કરવામાં આવ્યું છે.
Klotsvog (Russian Library)
by Margarita KhemlinKlotsvog is a novel about being Jewish in the Soviet Union and the historical trauma of World War II—and it’s a novel about the petty dramas and demons of one strikingly vain woman. Maya Abramovna Klotsvog has had quite a life, and she wants you to know all about it. Selfish, garrulous, and thoroughly entertaining, she tells us where she came from, who she didn’t get along with, and what became of all her husbands and lovers.In Klotsvog, Margarita Khemlin creates a first-person narrator who is both deeply self-absorbed and deeply compelling. From Maya’s perspective, Khemlin unfurls a retelling of the Soviet Jewish experience that integrates the historical and the personal into her protagonist’s vividly drawn inner and outer lives. Maya’s life story flows as a long monologue, told in unfussy language dense with Khemlin’s magnificently manipulated Soviet clichés and matter-of-fact descriptions of Soviet life. Born in a center of Jewish culture in Ukraine, she spent the war in evacuation in Kazakhstan. She has few friends but has had several husbands, and her relationships with her relatives are strained at best. The war looms over Klotsvog, and the trauma runs deep, as do the ambiguities and ambivalences of Jewish identity. Lisa Hayden’s masterful translation brings this gripping character study full of dark, sly humor and new perspectives on Jewish heritage and survival to an English-speaking audience.
Kneelers: The Unsung Folk Art of England and Wales
by Elizabeth BinghamA charming and witty history of the quirky - but surprisingly widespread - craft of embroidering kneeler cushions. The perfect gift book this Christmas, for those who love kneelers and those who don't!'A lovely look at a not-quite-vanishing craft that lies, literally, below our knees ... Inventive and interesting' The Oldie, 'Best Reads for All Ages This Christmas''A treasure of a collection' Amber Butchart, of BBC's The Great British Sewing Bee'I think I may already have discovered the best non fiction book of 2023' Reverend Richard Coles, author of A Murder Before EvensongKneelers is a celebration of the most widely practised - but often overlooked - folk art in England and Wales over the past ninety years: the design and craft of church kneelers. Featuring charming stories and enchanting designs from churches across the country, the book traces the history of kneelers; from their spectacular beginnings at Winchester in the 1930s to their booming popularity after Queen Elizabeth II's coronation and the present-day congregations who are keeping the tradition alive.In their range and diversity, the kneelers collected here form a fascinating social record of the concerns and interests that occupied their makers - including local fauna and flora, cricket, dragons, post-war tributes and the thrills of high-speed travel.Filled to the brim with beautiful full-colour images, Kneelers displays the quirky artistry and widely varied (and often surprising) motifs which have characterised church kneelers in the twentieth century. It rejoices in the personal stories of some of the people who have practised and advanced the art form, and is a wonderful commemoration of what happens when communities come together to celebrate their history and their environment.'A glorious and delightful salute' Tracy Chevalier, author of A Single Thread'This book is a Godsend!' Alan Titchmarsh, author of The Gardener's Almanac
The Kneeling Christian
by Whitaker House Unknown ChristianThis Christian classic, written by an unknown Christian sometime before 1930, is a passionate call to a life of prayer. Knowing that the subject of prayer is a mysterious and foreign concept to many Christians, the author addresses many of the perplexities of this practice, such as, What is prayer? How does one pray? Must we "agonize in prayer"? How does God answer prayer? What hinders our prayer? Who may pray? With many inspiring examples of prayerful preachers and missionaries, the author leaves no doubt that all spiritual growth--all victory, confidence, peace, and communion with God--comes only through the practice of fervent, heartfelt prayer.
The Kneeling Warrior: Winning Your Battles Through Prayer
by David IrelandSuccess in life requires militancy. Spiritual militancy! A true Christian is called to fight. Yet there are times devout followers of Christ unknowingly allow their warrior instincts to dull. Many of us stand idle while an evil tyrant pilfers our finances, snatches our health, filches our marriages, and makes off with all the promises of the kingdom--the really good stuff God intended for His children. There is good news! God provides an amazing battle plan to regain those things in life that have been snatched away by the enemy of our soul, a strategy that begins and ends with prayer. The Kneeling Warrior gives you the tools you need to develop a warrior’s mentality and passion in your prayer life in order to launch an all-out spiritual attack against your adversary. It is time to reclaim a fulfilling career, a satisfying marriage, a healthy relationship with your kids--and anything else worth recovering.

by John CarrA military history of the medieval Catholic order that arose during the Crusades in the Holy Land.The Knights of St John evolved during the Crusades from a monastic order providing hostels for Christian pilgrims visiting the Holy Land. The need to provide armed escorts to the pilgrims began their transformation into a Military Order. Their fervor and discipline made them an elite component of most Crusader armies and Hospitaller Knights (as they were also known) took part in most of the major engagements, including Hattin, Acre and Arsuf.After the Muslims had re-conquered the Crusader Kingdoms, the Order continued to fight from a new base, first in Rhodes and then in Malta. Taking to the sea, the Hospitallers became one of the major naval powers in the Mediterranean, defending Christian shipping from the Barbary Pirates (and increasingly turning to piracy themselves as funding from their estates in Europe dried up). They provided a crucial bulwark against Islamic expansion in the Mediterranean, obstinately resisting a massive siege of Malta by the Ottoman Turks in 1565. The Order remained a significant power in the Mediterranean until their defeat by Napoleon in 1798.Praise for The Knights Hospitaller“John's book gives us a rare insight into the monastic order that gave birth to the Knights Hospitaller, charting their history and exploits from their formation to the Napoleonic wars at the end of the eighteenth century. History doesn’t get any better than this.” —Books Monthly“In the process of telling this story, Carr also gives us an overview of military practice and trends in the Mediterranean world from the Crusades through the age of Revolution. This is a good read for anyone unfamiliar with the knights.” —New York Military Affairs“A deftly written, impressively comprehensive history that is thoroughly “reader friendly” in organization and presentation.” —Midwest Book Review
