Book Description
Like the bestselling Waldorf Kindergarten Snack Book and the Waldorf School Book of Soups, this cookbook in the series provides yet another a rich resource for spending time in the kitchen with young children--this time baking bread. What child doesn't like to feel and knead bread dough, watch it rise, and then taste it fresh from the oven? Not only is such hands-on sensory experience fun for everyone, it is also invaluable to young children as they continue to incarnate into our world. These recipes have been handed down by grandmothers, mothers, aunts, and friends. They are easy to follow and encourage the baker, young and older alike, to use the best possible ingredients, making bread once again the healthy "staff of life" it once was. The Waldorf Book of Breads includes tasty breads for the daily table and specialty breads for the seasons and special occasions. And, like the Waldorf snack book and the book of soups, The Waldorf Book of Breads is spiral-bound, so it lies flat to make life in the kitchen a little easier. Artist Jo Valens provides delightful illustrations to accompany the many recipes for delicious breads.

Book Description
"In the language of modern physics, one could speak of a quantum leap by earth and its life forms--our human civilization included.... "I sense dreams to be messages from a parallel world dimension where the causes of events are rooted, which later emerge on the level of everyday life." --Marko Pogacnik Our Earth, Gaia, is changing. As individuals and as a civilization, we are being drawn into a cosmic event whose breadth and depth we can hardly imagine. Gaia is entering a multidimensional form, and we must change, too, if we wish to survive this imminent transformation. We are not facing the "end of the world," but rather a fundamental change in the environment that allows the further evolution of nature and humankind on the Earth's surface. Earth's intelligence has already set in motion certain energy-related measures to avert the destruction that threatens Earth and its life forms owing to the irresponsible conduct of our modern civilization. These measures are a unique self-healing process that will enable "earthspace" to receive a completely new quality. One thing is certain, however; the inner development of each individual is decisive in building the coming multidimensional consciousness. This hope for a healing process must become part of our everyday reality. With more than thirty years of geomantic and Earth-healing work behind him, Marko Pogacnik uses his deep psychic sensitivity and extensive experience to help us understand and attune to the self-healing process of Earth change. In Gaia's Quantum Leap, Marko recalls his recent dramatic dreams with drawings and accompanying commentary to craft a way for us through these deep changes. He brings remedies, insights, and exercises that will help us adapt and survive, and that will help Gaia herself bring forth her true self. Practice the exercises and listen to the truth in your heart. Marko Pogacnik is not a guru laying down the law from on high, he encourages us to open our hearts and let the love within flow out. He warns against intellectual manipulations that appear sound but lack emotional balance. Gaia's Quantum Leap represents the completion of a cycle in Marko Pogacnik's works of admonition to recognize this immense issue and to cooperate in the Earth's and humanity's changes now.

Creating Gaia Culture

Author: Marko Pogačnik
Publisher: CLAIRVIEW BOOKS
ISBN: 1912992329
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 228

Book Description
Humanity stands at the threshold of a new phase of Earth’s planetary evolution. Breathtaking possibilities – in tune with the evolutionary path of the universe – are now available. Yet the question arises: Does humanity have the ideas, foresight and potential for action that could create a culture that corresponds to the planet’s transformation? In the midst of distressing ecological crises, Marko Pogačnik offers fresh hope. Having worked intensively in the fields of holistic ecology (geomancy) and Earth-healing for four decades, he now formulates a vision of a culture based on co-creation with Gaia (the Earth), her elemental worlds and beings from parallel evolutions. Creating Gaia Culture is also a workbook, featuring dozens of drawings and meditative exercises to help transcend mental obstacles by cultivating the quality of living imagination. Pogačnik – UNO Goodwill Ambassador and UNESCO Artist for Peace – presents numerous ways to collaborate with the process of creating Gaia culture. He allows us to look into the primeval source of the future by interpreting the ancient book of the biblical Apocalypse – a text that holds the secret of Earth changes in a coded vision of a new human civilization – and uses his experiences, visions, dream stories and communications with beings from parallel worlds to trigger pictures that can enable a new human culture become a tactile reality. ‘The only path that makes sense is to reconnect with the essence of life and embrace a loving partnership with Gaia, Earth. This path involves a challenging transformation of our current cultures and may provoke changes in many aspects of the embodied world as we know it, as we continue to evolve into the future.’

Integral Polity

Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317115449
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 476

Book Description
Releasing the genius of an individual, an enterprise and a society is a central pre-occupation of the contemporary business environment. A fascinating approach to how we can begin to tackle this challenge is presented by the authors of Integral Polity. Integral spirituality, integral philosophy and the integral age, at an overall or holistic level of consciousness, has therefore become a strong enough idea to form the genesis of a movement over the course of the last half century. Taking as a starting point the ground-breaking work of the Trans4m Centre for Integral Development this book applies such an ’integral’ notion to the realms of business, economics and enterprise. To be successful, an integral approach must recognise the nuances of its environment - an integral approach in India is different from that in Indonesia, or Iceland, and they may in fact complement rather than conflict. Therefore this book also provides a fascinating alignment of such ’integrality’ with, and between different ’southern’ and ’eastern’, ’northern’ and ’western’ worlds. Using case studies ranging across the globe this review of a newly integral theory and practice provides a new lease of life to what may increasingly be perceived as the self-seeking, insulated and occasionally violent and corrupt, realm of the political.

Gaia Connections

Author: Alan S. Miller
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780742531437
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 328

Book Description
Gaia Connections addresses several arenas of concern as humankind faces an escalating ecological and moral crisis in this new millennium. Beginning with an overview of the history of philosophy and the importance of traditional thinking on modern-day ethical reflection, the book then looks at the development of theories of justice, the problems of equity in global human relations, the inability of existing economic systems to resolve our human and environmental dilemmas, the unnatural connections now obtaining between genuine human need and the technological drift of science, the new genetics and reproductive technologies, and the nature of modern war. The study concludes with some historical perspectives on American environmental history and the urgent need for change in our ecoethical, social, and value systems. The principal focal areas of the original edition are continued: the actual state of the global environment today, the imperative for the development of sustainable economic and resource systems, the movement within much of science toward an almost universal biological determinism, and the need for a reaffirmation of an ethical value system which places the needs of people before the needs of property and profits. The revised edition not only updates these data and the concerns of the original book but also visits a number of new issues: the movement for environmental justice, the connections between global poverty and the now almost universal allegiance to a new world market and free trade system, the progress and the dilemmas of molecular biology and genetic engineering, and the growing disarray within the global systems of political economy.

The Redwoods of Gaia

Author: Kathleen Chan
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1524531251
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 63

Book Description
The Redwoods of Gaia: A New Age Mirror of the Soul was intended to be a lecture to be given at some future date. Its thesis is that, when ancient human beings developed their neurologically complex brain functioning, the cosmic creator bestowed the gift of an intuitive, individuated sentience that would allow these first humans to understand the spiritual dimension of the creator itself. The author, Kathleen Chan, proposes that this occurred sometime around fifty-five thousand years ago at the advent of Homo sapiens, namely the Cro-Magnons, who emerged on the scene in Europe at that time. Ms. Chan, who holds graduate degrees in both anthropology and social work, has pulled together various ideas to propose this scenario, which she believes happened. She points to the sudden appearance of complex naturalistic drawings found in the caves at Lascaux, France, to assert that something miraculous had occurred. In her discussion of the human soul, she analyzes the contributions made by philosophy, religion, and science, as if they were stepping stones in formulating her theory of human spirituality. She draws upon the Theosophy and New Age concept of the inherent divinity of man, rather than the Christian view of man falling from grace after the Garden of Eden. Her book is fascinating, and her final comments regarding the earths planetary evolution are riveting.
