CosMos - A Co-creator's Guide to the World

Ervin Laszlo and Jude Currivan

PB AUD24.95

We stand at the threshold of a new revolutionary and empowering vision of the world. The discoveries of leading-edge science and the insights of spirituality are converging to reveal that the CosMos and all that we term reality is wholly integrated and that at its most fundamental level, it is a field of information.

This is the elemental cosmic mind from which everything emanates and is manifested, and to which all ultimately returns. Research is also demonstrating what the mystics of all traditions have discerned: We have the innate ability to envision, understand and experience the Cosmos at levels far beyond the limitations of our human persona.

CosMos is co-authored by two explorers, who combine almost a century of seeking to understand not only the world is as it is, but why. Philosopher, futurist and systems scientist Ervin Laszlo and cosmologist, healer and mystic Jude Currivan offer a re-envisaged view of the world that is no longer fragmented, but is at last whole. Theirs is a perception of a meaningful and co-creative world that is exquisitely tuned to be "as simple as it can be" for consciousness to explore itself. In these momentous times, the vision shared in CosMos invites us to open our hearts and minds in order to take our place as conscious co-creators of our evolving cosmic destiny.

Quantum Shift and the Global Brain

Ervin Laszlo

PB AUD25.00

Our world is in a Macro shift. The reality we are experiencing today is a substantially new reality- climate change, global corporations, industrialised agriculture - all challenging us to change with our rapidly changing world lest we perish.

In this book, Ervin Laszlo presents a 'new reality map' to guide us through the world shifts we are experiencing - the problems, opportunities and challenges we face individually as well as collectively - in order to help us understand what we must do during this time of great transition.

Science's cutting edge now views reality as much bigger and much smaller than ever before, moving into broader, multiple universes arising in a possibly infinite meta-universe, as well as a deeper reality extending into dimensions at a subatomic level. Laszlo shows that aspects of human experience that had previously been consigned to the domain of intuition and speculation are now being explored with scientific rigor and urgency. There has been a shift in the materialistic scientific view of reality toward the multidimensional worldview of multiple interconnected realities long known by the world's great spiritual traditions. By understanding the interconnected of our changing world as well as our changing 'map' of the world we can navigate with insight, wisdom and confidence.

Ian Gawler- the Dragon's Blessing

Gary Allenby

PB AUD35.00

Ian Gawler is world renowned in his professional life. In 1974 he developed bone cancer in his right leg, which was amputated at the hip. The following year the cancer had spread to his pelvis and chest and he was told he had only weeks to live. He refused to give up and the fact that he is a pioneer in the therapeutic application of mind-body medicine and meditation is testimony to his will and determination.

Hours of interviews and extracts from his diaries reveal much for the first time about his amazing journey. This is an honest, unflinching and illuminating portrait of an unorthodox, compassionate and courageous Australian.

The Unfolding Now

A.H. Almaas

PB AUD33.30

The keys to self knowledge and deep contentment are right here before us in this very moment - if we can simply learn to live with open awareness. In this book, Almaas presents an effective practice for developing the transformative quality of presence.

Through a particular method of self-observation and contemplative exploration he calls 'inquiry', we learn to live in the relaxed condition of simple 'being ourselves', without interference from feelings of inadequacy, drivenness toward goals, struggling to figure things out and rejecting experiences we don't want.

Almaas explores the many obstacles that keep us from being present, including defensiveness, ignorance, desire, aggression and self-hatred. He also shows how to welcome with curiosity and compassion whatever we are experiencing!

A.H. Almaas, author of the very popular Diamond Approach, gives you the keys to self-knowledge and deep contentment. He contends that by simply living in the present moment with openness and curiosity you will live in the relaxed condition of simply 'being yourself.' As well as giving the keys he shares the many obstacles that keep us from being present.
