AURAS & COLOURS
Paul Lambillion

Our aura - the coloured energy and light field we have around our physical body - reveals our spiritual, mental, emotional and physical state. It can also give information about our personality, gifts, aptitudes and other personal characteristics. Even inanimate objects have auras, says Paul Lambillion, as do animals, flowers, trees, houses, communities and cities. Paul Lambillion teaches people how to discern auras and use this gift in a constructive way so that they can become more effective people and better healers. He presents a course in learning to understand our subtle bodies, which can bring a deep perception of the whole human being. This course includes many useful exercises and meditations, helping us to unfold our own vision of colours and auras. In addition, the author gives much information on the meanings of the colours and how an understanding of them can bring harmony to our everyday lives.

WAY OF THE PEACEFUL WARRIOR
Dan Millman

 

`You've learned body control and even some mind control, but your heart has not yet opened. Your goal should not be invulnerability, but vulnerability - to the world, to life, and therefore, to the Presence you felt. I've tried to show you by example that a warrior's life is not about imagined perfection or victory; it is about love. Love is the warrior's sword; wherever it cuts, it gives life, not death.'

This novel, which has been a constant bestseller since it was first published in 1980, tells the story of Dan Millman, a young athletics student who, haunted by nightmares and unable to sleep one night, goes out for a walk and wanders into a petrol station. There he meets an old pump attendant who seems strangely familiar, even though Dan has never met him before. The pump attendant - or Socrates, as Dan calls him - seems to know a great deal about the hidden side of life and, after a bit of persuasion, agrees to pass on what he can of his wisdom to Dan. And thus Dan sets out on the way of the peaceful warrior.... Rich in insight, there is much in this entertaining story that can help you to change your life for the better.

THE SILENT STONES
Diana Cooper

The Silent Stones is Diana Cooper's first novel. Very exciting, it conveys, like all her books, a compelling spiritual message to us all. Handed a sacred scroll from Atlantis by a dying Tibetan monk, Marcus, Joanna and Helen are propelled into adventure as they race to get it translated and to follow the instructions. Because its contents hold the key to healing and empowering Earth and humanity, vested interests using dark powers will stop at nothing to prevent the information from being revealed. Diana Cooper weaves into her story profound elements of spiritual learning, as her characters gradually learn the seven Great Mysteries that are the spiritual laws of this planet. The scroll unveils the illusions by which humans live, the true purpose of Stonehenge and Machu Picchu, and seven important symbols - printed in the book - which will, if we use them, clear away obstructions, allowing us the freedom to follow our destiny.

THE SECRET
Rhonda Byrne

We’ve had loads of letters and emails from you enthusing about the film: The Secret, which, like Barbel Mohr’s The Cosmic Ordering Service, is doing so much to make everyone aware of the Law of Attraction and how it works. Now, this book has been published in which the Law of Attraction is explained by the teachers who appear in the film, who include Jack Canfield, John F Demartini, Hale Dwoskin and Neale Donald Walsch. The profound practical understanding they share in this book makes The Secret so simple a child could understand it. Besides explaining exactly how The Secret works, all the teachers focus together on one topic at a time, illustrating how to use The Secret to realise your dreams in terms of relationships, health, abundance, and even world peace. Since everything is energy, and energy follows thought, there truly is nothing you cannot achieve, if you practise The Secret!

THE BOOK OF SECRETS
Deepak Chopra

 

The secret hunger that gnaws at people’s souls has nothing to do with externals like money, status and security. It’s the inner person who craves meaning in life, the end of suffering, and answers to the riddles of love, death, God, the soul, good and evil. A life spent on the surface will never answer these questions or satisfy the needs that drive us to ask them. Finding the hidden dimensions in yourself is the only way to fulfil your deepest hunger. And what better guide could you wish for on your quest than The Book of Secrets, Deepak Chopra’s profoundly intelligent and original exploration of the mystery of existence? Step by step, he leads you to the deepest level of your being, the place where you do not have to find wisdom, for you are wisdom. He reveals the mystery of existence not by giving you more knowledge, but by steadily paring away all the layers of illusion that come between you and the light you are. As Deepak says, ‘It isn’t possible for the self to keep secrets from itself forever, no matter how thoroughly we’ve been trained to believe otherwise.’
