Category: MOTIVATION

The Instant New York Times bestseller from the greatest living authority on habit formation, Stanford University's BJ Fogg, PhD. "Absolutely brilliant ... a 5/5 book" Chris Evans "Will help anyone have their best year yet" Dr Rangan Chatterjee When times are hard, forget daunting goals. For real chang e, start small. Forget exhausting fitness regimes. Lose the guilt. Stop feeling bad. Improving your life and doing your best are much easier than you think: Try any habit, make it tiny, find where it fits naturally in your life and nurture its growth.

A Good Day to Die by Lisa Birnie

$15.00 AUD

Available Stock:

Category: SECONDHAND BOOKS

We must determine to accept death as an ordinary part of life, something none of us will escape. We must determine to accept some suffering as an ordinary part of life. But we must also determine that extreme and prolonged pain has no place in a society that prides itself on its social and humanitarian standards. In A Good Day to Die Lisa Birnie tells the stories of the dying, of their lovers, families and friends, and of the health professionals who care for all of them. In this wise and compassionate book she shows that how we die matters not only to ourselves but to those we leave behind. The attitudes and beliefs we bring to death are those we forge during our lives but, Birnie argues, we can only die well if we are free of physical and psychological pain. This remarkable book is about how palliative care can give us this freedom and love when we are at our most vulnerable. ...Show more

Beachcombing at Miramar by Richard Bode

$18.65 (35% off)
Available Stock:

Category: SECONDHAND BOOKS

At a time when both men and women are reassessing their roles in life, Richard Bode left and unfulfilling career and an unhappy marriage to seek the truth about his life. On a California beach he contemplated the sea and shore and tuned himself to the rhythm of the tides. Seeking answers to questions li ke, What does it mean to be a husband and a father? What does it mean to be a success, to be someone's lover, someone's son? Bode finds surprising answers in surprising places: in a sunset, in a piece of beach glass, in conversations shared and conversations overheard, in memories of his father. Filled with unforgettable moments: a funeral for a drowned fisherman, birds at dusk, and constellations in the night, exquisite word pictures are painted with the same passion and clarity that Gauguin sought in Tahiti. Bode shows us how to see with new eyes the choices we make - from relationships we choose to relationships we flee, from careers we pursue to the ones that consume us. This remarkable and beautiful book has the power, like the sea itself, to reshape our lives. In the words of Richard Bode: "Gradually, if I go with courage and wisdom, I arrive at my destination, a place called paradise. It is not a land free of struggle, a realm devoid of pain or grief. But it is the place where I feel at home, where I am supposed to be." ...Show more

The Sacred Symbols of Mu by James Churchward

$30.00 AUD

Available Stock:
1

Category: MOTIVATION

Mu, as a lost Pacific Ocean continent, was later popularized by James Churchward (1851-1936) in a series of books, beginning with Lost Continent of Mu, the Motherland of Man (1926), re-edited later as The Lost Continent Mu (1931). Other popular books in the series are The Children of Mu (1931), and The Sacred Symbols of Mu (1933). Churchward claimed that "more than fifty years ago," while he was a soldier in India, he befriended a high-ranking temple priest who showed him a set of ancient "sunburnt" clay tablets, supposedly in a long lost "Naga-Maya language" which only two other people in India could read. Having mastered the language himself, Churchward found out that they originated from "the place where man] first appeared-Mu." The 1931 edition states that "all matter of science in this work are based on translations of two sets of ancient tablets: " the clay tables he read in India, and a collection 2,500 stone tablets that had been uncovered by William Niven in Mexico. p. 7 Churchward gave a vivid description of Mu as the home of an advanced civilization, the Naacal, which flourished between 50,000 and 12,000 years ago, was dominated by a "white race," p. 48 and was "superior in many respects to our own" p. 17 At the time of its demise, about 12,000 years ago, Mu had 64,000,000 inhabitants and many large cities, and colonies in the other continents. Churchward claimed that the landmass of Mu was located in the Pacific Ocean, and stretched east-west from the Marianas to Easter Island, and north-south from Hawaii to Mangaia. He claimed that according to the creation myth he read in the Indian tablets, Mu had been lifted above sea level by the expansion of underground volcanic gases. Eventually Mu "was completely obliterated in almost a single night" p. 44: after a series of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, "the broken land fell into that great abyss of fire" and was covered by "fifty millions of square miles of water." p. 50 Churchward claimed that Mu was the common origin of the great civilizations of Egypt, Greece, Central America, India, Burma and others, including Easter Island, and was in particular the source of ancient megalithic architecture. As evidence for his claims, he pointed to symbols from throughout the world, in which he saw common themes of birds, the relation of the Earth and the sky, and especially the Sun. Churchward claims the king of Mu was Ra and he relates this to the Egyptian god of the sun, Ra, and the Rapanui word for Sun, ra'a, which he incorrectly spells "raa." 8]: p. 48 He claimed to have found symbols of the Sun in "Egypt, Babylonia, Peru and all ancient lands and countries - it was a universal symbol." 8]: p. 138 Churchward attributed all megalithic art in Polynesia to the people of Mu. He claimed that symbols of the sun are found "depicted on stones of Polynesian ruins," such as the stone hats (pukao) on top of the giant moai statues of Easter Island. Citing W.J. Johnson, Churchward describes the cylindrical hats as "spheres" that "seem to show red in the distance", and asserts that they "represent the Sun as Ra." p. 138 He also incorrectly claimed that some of them are made of "red sandstone" 8]: p. 89 which does not occur in the island. The platforms on which the statues rest (ahu) are described by Churchward as being "platform-like accumulations of cut and dressed stone," which were supposedly left in their current positions "awaiting shipment to some other part of the continent for the building of temples and palaces.": p. 89 He also cites the pillars "erected by the Maori of New Zealand" as an example of this lost civilization's handiwork.: p. 158 In Churchward's view, the present-day Polynesians are not descendants of the dominant members of the lost civilization of Mu, responsible for these great works, but survivors of the cataclysm that adopted "the first cannibalism and savagery" in the world. ...Show more
