"Illusions: the Adventures of a Reluctant Messiah" by Richard Bach. In the cloud-washed airspace between the cornfields of Illinois and blue infinity, a man puts his faith in the propeller of his biplane. For disillusioned writer and itinerant barnstormer Richard Bach, belief is as real as a full tank of gas and sparks firing in the cylinders...until he meets Donald Shimoda--former mechanic and self-described messiah who can make wrenches fly and Richard's imagination soar.... In Illusions, the unforgettable follow-up to his phenomenal bestseller Jonathan Livingston Seagull, Richard Bach takes to the air to discover the ageless truths that give our souls wings: that people don't need airplanes to soar...that even the darkest clouds have meaning once we lift ourselves above them... and that messiahs can be found in the unlikeliest places--like hay fields, one-traffic-light midwestern towns, and most of all, deep within ourselves/

"Energies Of Transformation : A guide to the Kundalini Process Assessing and Integrating Kundalini Process: A Clinical Perspective ; Bonnie Greenwell, Ph.D.; In this "pragmatic workshop", therapist Greenwell, author of Energies of Transformation: A Guide to the Kundalini Process, offers suggestions on how to identify the kundalini awakening experience and help people through its processes. Although no two experiences are alike, Greenwell describes seven characteristics frequently present and suggests ways of assisting in the often chaotic and lengthy process of moving through the awakening. A clear and informative discussion.

"Kundalini Therapist Greenwell offers an in-depth look at the kundalini experience, noted by the ancients yet still little-understood today. Utilizing research for her book The Energies of Transformation, as well as personal experience, Greenwell describes some of the most common characteristics of kundalini awakening and offers basic guidelines for assisting the process in oneself and others. Spirituality is intimately connected to bodily energies, says Greenwell, and in the proper context these energies can lead to a lifetime of personal development.

" The Stormy Search for the Self ; Christina Grof ; A good overview of the phenomenon of spiritual emergence: What is it? What sort of events typically trigger it? How is it different from mental illness? What are the best strategies for working with it? Christina Grof shares her difficult experience and describes other case histories to illustrate stages in the process of emergence to a higher level of awareness. The often disturbing symptoms of spiritual emergence are really a pathway to greater wholeness and authentic existence. This new understanding welcomes emergence as guide and teacher and recognizes it as a common experience, to be worked with as a path to greater freedom and well-being when its emergent energies are allowed to lead the transformation.

" Ancient Secret of the Fountain of Youth Peter Kelder; Harbor Press. This short book has an interesting story and six yoga (kundalini releasing) exercises promoted as restorers of youth. Legend has it that hidden in the remote reaches of the Himalayan mountains lies a secret that would have saved Ponce de Leon from years of fruitless searching. There, generations of Tibetan monks have passed down a series of exercises with mystical, age-reversing properties. Known as the Tibetan Rites of Rejuvenation or the Five Rites, these once-secret exercises are now available to Westerners in Ancient Secret of the Fountain Of Youth. Peter Kelder's book begins with an account of his own introduction to the rites by way of Colonel Bradford, a mysterious retired British army officer who learned of the rites while journeying high up in the Himalayas. Fountain of Youth then offers practical instructions for each of the five rites, which resemble yoga postures. Taking just minutes a day to perform, the benefits for practitioners have included increased energy, weight loss, better memory, new hair growth, pain relief, better digestion, and just feeling younger

" Serpent of Fire Darrel Irving. Kundalini and its relationship to psychological vitality and spiritual transformation...readers learn that kundalini is more than a spiritual concept, a religious illusion, or a New Age fantasy. It is a subtle energy at the base of the spine that when unleashed becomes a powerful force leading to altered and higher states of unconsciousness...it is a curative process if approached with knowledge and understanding...it is the mechanism of evolution contained in the human body... In these pages Irving makes a provocative case for a strong connection between madness and the kundalini process gone awry...Kundalini is the birthright of everyone, and kundalini-activated individuals are the hope and promise of the new millennium.

" Heavenly Lights: The Apparitions of Fátima and the UFO Phenomenon The Fátima incident was an important event in the history of religion. In 1917, three little Portuguese shepherds – Jacinta, Francisco, and Lúcia – suddenly encountered the Virgin Mary, illuminated in the splendor of heavenly lights, who told the children three secrets about the fate of the Earth. The contacts were followed by an unexplained aerial phenomenon, called “The Miracle of the Sun,” in which the Sun was seen to dance in the sky by thousands of awestruck onlookers who flocked to Fátima. The apparitions were presumed to be a case of divine intervention in human affairs, a sign from Heaven that the world war then raging in Europe should end. A shrine sprang up at Fátima that drew millions of believers, and a myth was invented that the secrets of Fátima would be revealed in the fullness of time – as a testament of faith in a secular age. In Heavenly Lights, Portuguese historians Joaquim Fernandes and Fina d’ Armada tell the true story of the apparitions of Fátima. The first history of Fátima to be written by Portuguese historians based on the original documents, Heavenly Lights is the result of a 25-year odyssey by the authors in search of the actual facts of the Fátima case. Fernandes and d’ Armada began their investigation in 1978, when they were given access to secret archives held at the Sanctuary of Fátima. The records of Sister Lúcia, kept at the archives since the incident, revealed that the children did not interact with an apparition of the Virgin Mary but with a kind of hologram of an unidentified entity projected through a beam of light from the sky above them. The archives clearly showed that the entities encountered at Fátima were not deities from Heaven but rather multidimensional beings from “elsewhere” in the vast Cosmos. This finding was supported by hundreds of other facts from the time of the apparitions. Fátima, the authors discovered, was the first major UFO-like case of the 20th century. It contains in anticipation all the phenomenological features of the modern aerial events and also the physical, psychological and spiritual patterns of the current “contactee syndrome” as an altered state of consciousness. Heavenly Lights is certain to become a definitive history of the Fátima Incident of 1917. When it was first published in Portugal in 1995, entitled As Aparições de Fátima e o Fenómeno OVNI, the Jornal de Notícias, a leading Portuguese newspaper, heralded the work “a literary success without precedent in the field of Portuguese ufological studies.” Now the whole world can know the truth about the apparitions of Fátima. This new translation by American journalists Andrew D. Basiago and Eva M. Thompson offers a powerful argument for both historians, anthropologist, cosmologist and “ET” researchers and religious scholars alike to re-examine the actual evidence that at last explains the enduring mystery of the Fátima incident.
