God Is Not Dead
God Is Not Dead is a fascinating guided tour of quantum physics, consciousness, and the existence and experience of God. University of Oregon physics professor Amit Goswami shows readers that God’s existence can be found in clues that the science of quantum physics reveals. Goswami helps readers to break free of a Newtonian, materialistic view of reality to the fascinating quantum experience of God. In fact, God Is Not Dead argues for a “quantum activism,” leading a balanced life that incorporates both the quantum and material worlds – and an experience of consciousness. God Is Not Dead will challenge readers to change how they think – and experience – the nature of reality, the existence of souls, the power of dreams, the university of love, and the very mind of God.

The Art of Living.
The Ancient Meditation Technique that Brings Real Peace of Mind Vipassand-bhavand, "the development of insight," embodies the essence of the teaching of the Buddha. As taught by S. N. Goenka, this path to self-awareness is extraordinary in its simplicity, its lack of dogma and, above all, its results. The Vipassana technique can be successfully applied by anyone. Based on the lectures and writings of S. N. Goenka--and prepared under his direct guidance--The Art of Living shows how this technique can be used to solve problems, develop unused potential, and lead a peaceful, productive life. It includes stories by S. N. Goenka, as well as answers to students' questions, that convey a vivid sense of his teaching. S. N. Goenka's Vipassana courses have attracted thousands of people of every background. Unique among teachers of meditation, Goenka is a retired industrialist and former leader of the Indian Community in Burma. Although a layman, his teaching has won the approval of senior Buddhist monks in Burma, India, and Sri Lanka, a number of whom have taken courses under his guidance. Despite his magnetism, he has no wish to be a "guru" --instead he teaches self-responsibility. This is the first systematic study of his teachings to appear in English.

'Dr. Joe Dispenza delves deep into the extraordinary potential of the mind. Read this book and be inspired to change your life forever.' --Lynne McTaggart, author of The Field and The Intention Experiment 'A beautifully written book that provides a strong scientific basis for how the power of the human spirit can heal our bodies and our lives.' --Howard Martin, executive vice president of HeartMath and coauthor of The HeartMath Solution 'Joe Dispenza gives you the tools to make real changes in your life.' --William Arntz, producer/director of What the Bleep Do We Know ? Joe Dispenza, D.C., has spent decades studying the human mind---how it works, how it stores information, and why it perpetuates the same behavioral patterns over and over. In the acclaimed film What the Bleep Do We Know ? he began to explain how the brain evolves---by learning new skills, developing the ability to concentrate in the midst of chaos, and even healing the body and the psyche. Evolve Your Brain presents this information in depth, while helping you take control of your mind, explaining how thoughts can create chemical reactions that keep you addicted to patterns and feelings----including ones that make you unhappy. And when you do know how these bad habits are created, it's possible not to only break these patters, but also reprogram and evolve your brain, so that new, positive, and beneficial habits can take over.

World Famous Great Painters
The story of painting goes as far back as 20,000 years ago, to a time when Man had not yet learned to write. He looked around the world, and tried to reproduce what he saw in drawings. Man was just a caveman in those days, and the history of art began in caves. Art has progressed through the ages. It has organized itself into different styles in terms of form, as well as content. Many painters belong to certain movements, giving different treatment to space, perspective, light and colour. History tells us of many great geniuses who led such movements, and revolutionized the world of art. A few examples are Edgar Degas, Vincent Van Gogh, and Pablo Picasso who created history by initiating great movements like Impressionism, Expressionism and Cubism. This book presents to you some of these great painters whose works have stood the test of time. Inevitably, we had to make many reluctant omissions, and many names had to be left out for the lack of space. We have not included living painters either.
