Message From The Masters
In Many Lives, Many Masters, Brian Weiss opened an unexpected door into the astonishing realm of past-life regression. In Only Love Is Real, he showed us how we all possess soul mates from our pasts who wait to reunite with us today. Now, drawing on the wisdom of the Masters, the spirit guides who shape our destinies, bestselling author Brian Weiss gives us his most outstanding achievement to date. He reveals the essential life force in the universe and the ultimate healing energy. Its name is love. And he shows us how to harness its awesome power. MESSAGES FROM THE MASTERS * Marie recounts a memory from the womb, where, at the family kitchen table, her mother makes a shockingly accurate prediction about herself and her unborn child. * Diane, a nurse, finds, below the right shoulder of a male patient, a crescent birthmark identical to that one of a lost child she had recalled in a past-life regression. She and the man are now married. * Jim is unwillingly drafted into the Vietnam War. Later he recalls a past life as a nineteenth-century soldier scalped by Indians. His reluctance to fight and kill is a reminder of his own past role as a victim of war. * Carole is awakened by the phone. The voice on the other end, asking about the family business and the welfare of his loved ones, belongs to her father, who had died earlier that week. These stories express a profound yet simple truth. And perhaps no one better than Brian Weiss-a medical graduate of Yale, the former head of psychiatry at a major medical center, and today the leading expert on reincarnation-can share that truth with the world. It is the message imparted by the Masters, the super-evolved, nonphysical souls who have always been with us and are with us now. In this book you will hear people giving intimate and startling testimony to the miraculous potential of love. You will explore what happens after we die; strategies for fighting anxiety and healing relationships; the role of God and self-determination. You will explore exercises and meditations to harness the power of love and utterly transform your life.

Jesus Lived In India
Why has Christianity chosen to ignore its connections with the religions of the East, and to dismiss repeatedly the numerous claims that Jesus spent a large part of his life in India? This compelling book presents irrefutable evidence that Jesus did indeed live in India, dying there in old age. The result of many years of investigative research, Jesus Lived in India takes the reader to all the historical sites connected with Jesus in Israel, the Middle East, Afghanistan and India. As well as revealing age-old links between the Israelites and the East, the evidence found by theologian Holger Kersten points to the following startling conclusions: In his youth Jesus followed the ancient Silk Road to India. While there he studied Buddhism, adopting its tenets and becoming a spiritual master. Jesus survived the crucifixion. After the

"Breon Mitchell sets a new standard: careful precision regarding kafka's legalese is alchemically fused with a prose of great verve and intense readability."# Professor of germanic languages and literatures, duke university.# Written in 1914, The Trial is one of the most important novels of the twentieth century: the terrifying tale of josef K., a respectable bank officer who is suddenly and inexplicably arrested and must defend himself against a charge about which he can get no information.

This new edition is based upon the work of an international team of experts who have restored the text, the sequence of chapters, and their division to create a version that is as close as possible to the way the author left it. In his brilliant translation, Breon Mitchell masterfully reproduces the distinctive poetics of kafka's prose, revealing a novel that is as full of enery and power as it was when it was first written. Breon Mitchell has received the ATA German Literary Prize, among other translation awards. He is a professor of germani studies and comparative literature at indiana university.

Shree Swami Samarth Akkalkot Maharaj
Akkalkot Maharaj, recognized by many as an incarnation of Dattatreya, first appeared in Akkalkot in 1856. There he stayed for nearly twenty-two years. When asked about his parentage and childhood, he gave various, sometimes contradictory, answers to inquirers. One account put forth by deotees asserts that after traveling in the Himalayas, the Swami sat in samadhi for three hundred years in a dense forest. He became completely covered by anthills, and a large tree grew beside him. Once a woodcutter came to the forest and chose that particular tree for cutting. Laying his axe first to the anthill, he was surprised to see blood oozing from it. Pulling down the anthill, he discovered the Swami beneath it. Roused from samadhi, the Swami declared the incident to be Divinely ordained as it was time for him to go into the world and continue his mission. The Swami is said to have then wandered for a hundred years, performing many miracles, before appearing in Akkalkot. The Swami was unpredictable, appearing mad to many, and full of miracles. He loved his devotees with a great passion, and like other Adepts of the Crazy Wise style, he was paradoxically full of both human and Divine qualities. Once, when asked who he was, he replied, "I am this infinite universe; I am everywhere. Yet my favorite resorts are Sakyodri, Girnar, Kasi, Mathapur, Karveer, Panchaleswar, Audumbar, Karanjnagar, Narasimhvadi, and Gangapur."
