It is believed likely that we each have experienced physical or emotional wounds (trauma) in past lifetimes, and those unresolved hurts are imprinted on our souls. It is our souls that travel with us through lifetimes, and if we can identify and heal those past hurts, we clear our present life from associated limitations and challenges. There can be no healing of soul pain without understanding the source, the root of the injury and trauma. Present life triggers leading to addictions, dis-ease, anxiety, depression, anger, and unexplained behaviors linked to past lifetimes, can be understood, and released with resulting wellness. Soul Healing: Breaking the Chains of Past Life Influence, is your guide to accessing your past lifetimes where hurt or trauma were experienced. Viewing those episodes as anobserver; understanding, forgiving, and releasing associated emotion, is your transformational path to wellness and reclaiming of personal power to live the life intended for you..

A brilliant contribution to the advance of both Science and Philosophy-and a more profound spirituality. [Dr. Ervin Laszlo] We are given a creative, bedazzling contemplation...May all who come be enriched by this festive offering. [Lama Harvey Aronson; Lama Anne C. Klein] This book is a remarkable ecumenical accomplishment that documents the unity of Science and Spirit. "Such a rapprochement of the first principles of objective Science as it naturally arises in its perfectly subjective all-subsuming Spirit ground is required if we are to understand the arising new noetic knowledge paradigm in matter, mind, and spirit that is now abroad in our 21st century human cognosphere." Author of six books and over one hundred articles and essays (davidpaulboaz.org) religious studies scholar and Buddhist practitioner Dr. David Paul Boaz has once again contributed substantially to the emerging discipline of Science and Spirit. Continuing the dialogue of his prodigious The Noetic Revolution, engage the 'primordial love-wisdom mind' of the wisdom traditions of humankind in a penetrating synthesis of Eastern wisdom and Western physics. East meets West as ancient highest Indo-Tibetan Buddhist Dzogchen teaching engages modern quantum physics. The quality of the author's non-mathematical presentation of quantum physics is very high and complete, yet readily understandable. His penetrating insight into Buddhist philosophy and practice is exemplary. With skillful precision and refreshing humor he offers a unique exploration of "our human consciousness as it naturally arises in its all embracing formless, timeless, selfless primordial Spirit ground-bright indwelling Presence of That." Dr. Boaz here completes his breakthrough integral Noetic Quantum Ontology that unifies Buddhist boundless emptiness and 'nonlocal entangled' quantum emptiness. At last, a viable foundational interpretation of quantum mechanics! We have here a radically new "post-empirical" ontology that facilitates the unification of Einstein's gravity equations with quantum field theory-physic's much desired Quantum Gravity Theory. Engage in this exceptional book such diverse themes as "The Quantum in Spirit"; "Primordial Consciousness: Dzogchen Panpsychism"; "Your Primordial Wisdom Mind"; "Consciousness: Relative Human and Nondual Ultimate"; "Gödel and Paraconsistent Logical Systems"; "Happiness Arises From Your Present Mind state";"Mindfulness Meditation"; "The Secret of Human Happiness"; "The Unified Quantum Vacuum"; and so much more.

I Did It is the story of Gina Champion-Cain, the mastermindbehind the largest woman-led Ponzi scheme in US history?$400 million. Thisreal-life story includes a multitude of participants, banks, hedge funds,egomaniacs, and small-time crooks, all fueled by greed, stupidity, and a keendesire to look the other way. And even when they were looking in the rightdirection, all of these people and entities saw nothing. Gina was the Penn andTeller of misdirection, acting with caring behavior to other people (whilebilking her investors), creating philanthropic endeavors and single-mindedlypursuing her dream of building an empire, taking it public, and cashing out allthe investors. In August 2019, Gina's seven-year program of selling phony liquor licenseloans came to an end when the SEC, the US Attorney's Office, and the FBI filedsuit and shut it down. In San Diego, Gina, then fifty-four, was an icon. To theoutside world, this beautiful, charismatic woman looked as if she had succeededin a male-dominated good old boys club?building an empire that included realestate, restaurants, and retail; she was a guest economics commentator for theSan Diego Union-Tribune; she served on prestigious corporate and nonprofitboards. The City of San Diego even honored her with her own Gina Champion-CainDay. She cooked dinner for her husband Steve, walked the dogs on the beach, andwas a role model for young women. But in reality, her empire was a house ofcards funded with money from a financial fraud.

Imagine being sentenced to ten years in jail. How would you survive? Confessions of a Prison Cook: A Fusion of Food & Crime is based on the true story of a New York banker's incarceration and redemption after becoming the inmates' chef.Phil Longo is sent to Otisville federal prison in upstate New York for a decade. With just a strong Italian sense of food learned through family, he cons his way into what becomes a redemptive role as Kitchen Cook; drugging twin felons with nutmeg; stuffing stolen veggies down empty prosthetic legs. Drunks. Monks. Chinese gangsters and one-legged cooks. Food wasn't even the spiciest part of his experience. But it does act as an olive branch to "OtisVillains" like Joey, a handsome Mafia mademan who grooms his black hair with mayonnaise from the commissary; Jesus, chocolate-obsessed teen cousin to the Mexican cartel, or The Greek Brothers, obnoxious twins that live to stir the pot. Phil learns life is truly stranger than fiction. He gains rich insight into his fellow man and realizes: no one is rotten to the core. The guards may have been the wildest diners, bar none: Greta, a bitter blowhard who longs to hose down the inmates; tiny French cook Louie, whose greasy food is a foil for his sleazy behavior; Teresa, a Muslim patrol guard whose raunchy split personality flavors the narrative; and Kitchen Cop, Noreen, or "Sip," whose sobriety is measured by the state of her beehive hairdo. Top it off with a pinch of insatiable and inept Nurse Blackie. Short chapters center on coop calamities: SLING BLADE, where tuna can tops become cut-throat; RIN TIN TIN FOILED, where Phil's elderly mother smuggles homemade lasagna in- inside her girdle. Or MEAT AND GREET, where Phil fetches outside foods for famous Italian gangsters under the nose of Fury, the penitentiary's canine cop. Original tongue-in-cheek recipes top off chapter's jarring insanity. Cook up Killing Two Birds with One Scone, Blackened Soul, Beat Bread, or Deep Throatisserie. Famous food & crime quotes, from The Sopranos to Shakespeare, flavor the narrative. Add a dash of historical culinary crimes, and wet your appetite for this piping hot, dark and saucy dramedy.
