A todos, siempre: Amar en un mundo lleno de contratiempos y gente difícil
by Bob Goff¿Qué sucede cuando dejamos de preocuparnos por un mundo exigente lleno de personas problemáticas y, en cambio, simplemente empezamos a amarlas? En este nuevo libro, la continuación del fenómeno en ventas El amor hace, Bob Goff lleva a los lectores a un recorrido interesante, que transforma vidas; los transporta al secreto de una vida sin temores, limitaciones o preocupación.Cuando El amor hace apareció por primera vez en 2012, se hablaba de Goff como “el secreto mejor guardado del mundo”. Más de 800.000 ejemplares vendidos luego, ya no es un secreto. Pero Bob nunca deja de sorprender, y en A todos, siempre, la tan esperada continuación de El amor hace, revela lo que sucede cuando dejamos de preocuparnos por un mundo desafiante y repleto de gente difícil, y en su lugar simplemente los amamos: descubrimos la clase de vida abundante, libre y sin restricciones con la que siempre hemos soñado.Escrito en torno a la divertidísima y perspicaz historia de Bob, cada capítulo de A todos, siempre enseña una lección que Bob aprendió –en general de la manera más difícil– sobre lo que significa amar sin inhibición, inseguridad o limitación. Desde encontrar el número exacto de amigos hasta descubrir el lado positivo del fracaso, A todos, siempre señala el camino para personificar el amor haciendo lo inesperado, lo intimidante, lo aparentemente imposible. Ya sea que esté haciendo paracaidismo descalzo o haciéndose amigo de un hechicero ugandés, Bob irrumpe en la vida con un abrazo al prójimo ilimitado, tan contagioso como extraordinario. A todos, siempre revela cómo tú puedes hacer lo mismo.X

The Aaron/Q'uo Dialogues
by Carla L. Rueckert Barbara BrodskyCarla Rueckert's previous writings in Secrets of the UFO (1976) and The Law of One series (1982) inspired many readers to submit transcripts of their own channeling material. One of those readers was the Buddhist teacher Barbara Brodsky, in whom Rueckert recognized a kindred spirit. Rueckert invited Brodsky to co-channel a conversation between their spirits, Aaron and Q'uo, and the result is this timely and compelling book. Developed from the transcripts of nine weekends of joint channeling, The Aaron-Q'uo Dialogues offers teachings from a "positive channeling" or "positive polarity" perspective. This perspective emphasizes, as Rueckert says, "living, thinking, and acting in service to others," and avoiding the "negative polarity" of focusing exclusively on service to self. The Aaron-Q'uo Dialogues shows how fear--fear of being too human, fear of death and dying, fear of failing to change with the times--holds us back, limiting our full potential and enjoyment of life. Addressing questions from a wide range of spiritual seekers who attended these sessions, Aaron and Q'uo answer a host of fundamental questions for living with more awareness and compassion. With warmth and humor, these conversations offer the spiritual seeker a valuable template for living a life of selflessness and spiritual peace.From the Trade Paperback edition.
AARP® Crash Course in Finding the Work You Love: The Essential Guide to Reinventing Your Life (Aarp® Ser.)
by Samuel GreengardThe authoritative resource for finding new work and new purpose after fifty.Whether they’re old enough to have earned their AARP card or not, a new generation of American workers is no longer counting the days until retirement. Instead, they’re seeking greater fulfillment in their personal lives by tackling new—and often much more socially significant—work.Switching careers is a challenge at any age, yet boomers may have more to overcome than their younger counterparts: They must beef up their education or seek out retraining; cope with seismic lifestyle shifts such as less income and a new circle of friends; and reconcile themselves to the fact that even the most rewarding position is no panacea for life’s problems. After decades writing about career issues for publications as diverse as the Chicago Tribune, Family Circle, Workplace Management, and Wired, Sam Greengard brings a wealth of knowledge to this timely topic. He shows how to sort out your feelings about your existing career; successfully transition to a new one; and work toward a greater sense of balance in your daily life. Profiles of those who’ve attained their own goals are included, along with tips, quizzes, worksheets, how-to sidebars, and other practical resources.

Aatam Shakshatkar: आत्मसाक्षात्कार
by Dada Bhagwanजीवमात्र क्या ढूंढता है? आनंद ढूंढता है, लेकिन घड़ीभर भी आनंद नहीं मिल पाता | विवाह समारोह में जाएँ या नाटक में जाएँ, लेकिन वापिस फिर दुःख आ जाता है | जिस सुख के बाद दुःख आए, उसे सुख ही कैसे कहेंगे? वह तो मूर्छा का आनंद कहलाता है | सुख तो परमानेन्ट होता है | यह तो टेम्परेरी सुख हैं और बल्कि कल्पित हैं, माना हुआ है | हर एक आत्मा क्या ढूंढता है? हमेशा के लिए सुख, शाश्वत सुख ढूंढता है | वह ‘इसमें से मिलेगा, इसमें से मिलेगा | यह ले लूँ, ऐसा करूँ, बंगला बनाऊ तो सुख आएगा, गाड़ी ले लूँ तो सुख मिलेगा’, ऐसे करता रहता है | लेकिन कुछ भी नहीं मिलता | बल्कि और अधिक जंजालों में फँस जाता है | सुख खुद के अंदर ही है, आत्मा में ही है | अत: जब आत्मा प्राप्त करता है, तब ही सनातन (सुख) ही प्राप्त होगा |
