It is our moral duty to bring Jashodaben (Mother India) back to the house of her husband. Due to corruption in the police, 99% criminals go unpunished. Mohammed said, "e;Let there arise a group of people who enjoin good and forbid evil"e;. Moral evils are due to genes or Nature. Sexual misconduct cannot be prevented without finding a woman for every man. The state should buy eggs and serum on a large scale. The aim is to create embryos and destroy male embryos. Marriages are delayed due to the demands of dowry, long periods of education, lavish marriages, time taken for finding a job etc. Marriages must be as cheap as possible. Moral evils are due to genes for adultery, genes for violence, genes for egoism etc. The liars say that there existed a temple on my land of Dayanand Cooperative housing society (Delhi) and it was the birth place of Lord Krishna. The Pure Religion: Pure Religion is based on a single article of faith, that is, God exists. God and Nature are 2 independent Realities. Our prayer: O lord I am alone in the world and except thou nobody is mine. O Lord, forgive my sins and save me from new sins. O Lord give me transcendent, mystical and noumenal knowledge. O Lord, guide me to the right path and keep us on the path of truth, justice, moral purity and charity altruism, peace. etc. O Lord, save me from illegitimate gains and pleasures O Lord, we will carry out a holy war against the unjust people, O Lord save us from a false belief in gods, angels, Jinn, Satan, Iblis, devil, resurrection of dead, soul, rebirth, miracles, prophets, fate, Freedom of Will, heaven, hell, incarnation of God in human form, idolatry, revelations, rebirth etc. Atheism and religious conflicts can be eliminated by the Pure Religion. parasharsarl@gmail.com
Tenth Book - Champaign No PainTen books, can you imagine! For me, it's more than a dream who becomes reality. I feel happy with this accomplishment and I certainly hope that you, my faithful readers, will also enjoy this newest book. In my opinion, every book is getting better, every time again. I can say, that no changes have been made to the arrangements of the poems, they are still written in my own familiar style. As always some new ideas came into my mind, some other perspectives, you can maybe call it, some kind of try outs. Every year brings other items to the front of my brain, to draw the conclusion, if you like my previous books, then you will certainly like this tenth one also. Xlibris has been the publisher of this 'Champaign No Pain', that is also my tenth book with Xlibris.
Norfolk is steeped in story. Whether we are travelling along the coast, through the loam-rich farmlands, across the sandy brecklands, among the inland waterways of the broads, or over the marsh and fenlands to the west of the county; whether we are threading the Saxon and Medieval streets of Norwich, Kings Lynn or Thetford, stories are everywhere. These stories that are held in landscape are what the Aboriginal peoples would call the 'dreaming' of a place. When they are told the sleeping landscape reveals its dreams. Its secrets are disclosed. The medium is the breath - the spoken and the sung word. In this exhibition the narratives of place are returned to the bedrock of landscape. Breath is become stone. The chisel leaves traces in the stone in the same way that the blade of the plough furrows the field or the bird's foot marks the mud... but it carries with it traces of the voices of our ancestors, engrained fragments of ancient stories.

Conflict is an inherent part of life. The ruptured Walk, not only evokes the narrator-protagonist's personal, family and spiritual life. It brilliantly and expertly gives us a gaze into the heart of a woman whose search for peace and justice brings her almost to a cataclysmic end. Her vistas takes the reader into her confidence as she confides, how the pulpit is used to subject the congregants into kowtowing to the pastor's authority and those who dare see it as an object of oppression are tried and cast out as silly tedious deviates. She gently reflects that behind an indomitable character she is known to be, still stands a fallible person who battles with some of the choices she has made. In her pursuit to self-correct, she becomes a lone voice trying to dissuade others from falling prey to the same unfortunate fate she suffered. This sends her into the tradition of renegades as viewed through the eyes of the pastor. The animosity between the pastor and our protagonist culminates in the decision of her viewing family relations rather than money. This view compels the reader to decide on his or her own virtues, what comes first between church, money and family. In the end the narrative talks to the name of the book, why the author chose not to name it Rapture, which means a feeling of intense pleasure rather a rupture that means break away! Once again, the woman's decision is against the popular norm. The author expertly takes us through Mehlolo's conflicting personal and popular view and she elects the antonym of union, deciding to break away, in a complex yet narratively sequential, the theme of the story lends itself with ease to the name.
From the first I included poetic lines, from my novella 'Stand and deliver, to my setting in the places of my childhood, my longest tale, Upon this tree. Either spoken or as a feed to a chapter. An example is the poem 'Remember me (included in full in the 'Love' section) Almost a biographical theme, I mostly write in rhythm and rhyme, a natural instance that appeals to me, though I feel it isn't a necessity in story verses, where it can appear tedious. Like most poets this selection comes from life, love and memories, recollections dear to my heart, whether it may be the love of nature, film, music, yearnings to love, or simple nonsense, where throughout any merit I attribute to God and his encouragement. Also I feel I must add the helping hand of a precious Godly soul, Patricia Tijerina, whose inspiration and encouragement was immeasurable. I hope all who venture to read a part of my life find pleasure and enjoyment in doing so, to know and sense a little of the rapture I convey, whether it be my innermost feelings, or the life-long love of nature, film and childhood. Written under pressure that I assume most could not bear, this book of verse is long overdue. I hope it gives an insight into my life, feelings and memories. Thank you to all who read my first volume of verse, knowing part of my life and ever loving memories, interlaced with the love of nature, film and lighter moments. Michael S Ball
There have been all sorts of relatives since the time of Cain and Abel, Joseph and his elder brothers, Laban against Jacob as well as Esau and Jacob. As things turned out, David wished his nephews, the sons of Zeruiah, one of his sisters, had not joined his army. They had a lusty craving for violence without reverence for God and immediate reality, whereas David reverenced God above anything else. You and I need God to shield us from the troubles that relatives constitute. Some are more of a curse than a blessing.
Simon was a young married financial advisor, with a beautiful wife and a son he adored. His best friends were a flashy single solicitor, James, and a hard-working estate agent, called Richard. Richard's wife Susan was also very good friends with Simon's wife Janet. The recession was hitting financial services & Simon pretty hard, so he showed a great deal of interest when his solicitor friend suggested a way for him to get a much-needed financial boost. Simon knew this busi-ness deal was dodgy, would he get involved, would he risk everything and take his friends down with him?
It may sound the author, a political analyst, is promulgating tyranny in some ways, nevertheless deep inside he holds the context of realities on the ground. Something to be realized and directed- as without realizing the contexts in the places described changes cannot transpire towards democracy, towards development, towards peaceful ends.The author takes a view on the Horn of Africa, and in particular Ethiopia and Eritrea. While he realizes his perspectives will anger and frustrate those with concocted conjectures, this is not the aim. However, he strongly feels the dissentient views and circumstances of Eritrea and Ethiopia will not change unto the worlds end unless situations are accepted and facts are addressed for the present moment.

"But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their sense exercised to discern both good and evil" (Hebrew 5:14). Before we do anything in life, like making a decision (e.g., going into polygamy or anything else we need to decide on), the voice of God can come in the form of a dream or through a man or woman of God. But this voice of God from a man or woman of God or from dreams may not happen. Or you may have to think about what steps to take in your life. This is why I don't like a church where the man of God cannot hear from God. He or she is no different from you. You might as well serve your God at home or start your own church. Hebrew 5:14 simply means think, ponder, or weigh out questions you might have about your life. God wants you to pray too. We may not know God's perfect will and hold over our lives, but Psalm 149:6-9 says, 6 "Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand, 7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishment upon the people [that want to hurt us]; 8 To bind their kings with chains and their nobles with feathers of iron; 9 To execute upon then the judgement written; this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the Lord." "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and the words of their testimony; and they loved not their lives onto the death" (Revelation 12:11). I ask the question "Who is God?" I don't know. I've never seen him before. But I will keep having faith in him because I feel him in my heart. I hope you join the faith and follow Jesus Christ. Hebrews 11:6 says that without faith, we cannot please God. So we learn that our God only helps those who believe in him and that as we believe in him, he will direct the paths we are to take in life. I hope that as you read this book, you will find some pointers to who God is.
The Weight of Womanhood highlights the incomprehensible avoidable pressures put on women by societal expectations, male folks and sometimes women themselves. There is this culture of taking women for granted or taking advantage of women. Laban used his two daughters to swindle his nephew, Jacob, the Philistine Kings, and high officials used Delilah against Israelite leader, Samson who had become a pain in the ass for the Philistines' leadership. King Saul attempted to use his daughters rather than any of his sons to kill David. Certain cultures imply that one of the worst things a woman can do is to conceive and bear a girlchild. They turn a blind eye to the murder of millions of growing girlchild in the womb on yearly basis. Moses' older sister, Miriam resented and antagonized his wife to the extent that God was incensed to punish Miriam. King Rehoboam robbed his eldest son of his right because he preferred one of his stepmothers to the eldest son's mother. When Samson's mother claimed that an angel had visited her to talk about the imminent conception and birth of Samson, his father did not believe her. She had to ask God to resend His angel to attest to her claim before Samson's father believed her. Most men take women's gynecological and maternal exigencies for granted. Once Hannah did not conceive and bear him a child quickly, though he was supposed to love her very much, Elkanah opted for a second wife, Peninnah who made life miserable for Hannah once she bore Elkanah children while Hannah remained barren. He did not do anything to restrain Peninnah from worsening Hannah's miseries.

If you ever had the chance to see a train shining and passing over a bridge at dawn, I have always remembered. There was a windless, warm sky without a cloud. The scenery was luridly bright and achingly beautiful while you wait for a train in a simply established station beside the gray silent railway.
The aim of this book is to inspire readers to be social agents of what the author calls: a "e;new"e; virtuous cycle. This book reveals in the most creative of ways, the beautiful mystery, the eternal secret of life, the missing glue for social cohesion, the great philosophy called Ubuntu. The portrait of Ubuntu painted on its pages leaves no room for this concept to be the next generation's figment of imagination. This is done by means of poetry proven to be fluid and crafted effortlessly. Like any imperative, the discourse is urgent. To say this book is a must read would be an understatement. It leaves the reader enlightened and feeling well travelled.
