The Inner Tradition of Yoga - Michael Stone - Bog - Shambhala Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

The Inner Tradition of Yoga - Michael Stone - Bog - Shambhala Publications Inc - Plusbog.dk

A wise, accessible guide that makes the spiritual and ethical teachings of the yogic tradition immediately relatable to our practice on the mat—and in our everyday relationships and activities “There is no daily practice without some formal training; and there is no deep spiritual training without the mess of relational life. The two are one,” says Michael Stone. At the root of yoga practice there is a vast and intriguing philosophy that teaches the ethics of nonviolence, patience, honesty, and respect. Innovative teacher Michael Stone draws from numerous disciplines—including Buddhism and psychotherapy—to provide an in-depth, completely clear explanation of yogic philosophy, along with teachings on how to bring our understanding of yoga theory to deeper levels through our practice on the mat—and through our relationships with others. Yoga, says Stone, is a practice that helps us be more present with the actual, fluid life we are living right now—and there is no yoga without the conditions of your life. This book describes how to work with those conditions and how to fully appreciate yoga as a practice of being intimate with moment-to-moment reality.

BRUGT BOG En Kim Stone-krimi #08 Da teenagepigen Sadie Winters springer ud fra taget på sin skole, bliver hendes død betragtet som selvmord – en sidste desperat handling begået af en pige med store problemer. Men så bliver det ilde tilredte lig af en dreng fundet på den samme skole, og det står klart for kommissær Kim Stone, at disse dødsfald ikke er tragiske ulykker. Kim og hendes folk begynder at optrevle et net af dystre hemmeligheder, og en af lærerne sidder med nøglen til sandheden. Men netop da hun skal til at bryde tavsheden, bliver hun fundet død. Flere børns liv står på spil, og Kim er nødt til at overveje det utænkelige – at en jævnaldrende skoleelev kan stå bag mordene. Kims udforskning af psykologien hos børn, der slår ihjel, bringer hende i kontakt med sin gamle fjende, dr. Alex Thorpe – sociopaten, der har viet sit liv til at knuse Kim. Under sin desperate jagt på at fange morderen finder Kim en forbindelse mellem de aktuelle dødsfald og et indvielsesritual, der fandt sted på skolen for flere årtier siden. Men det er ikke omkostningsfrit at redde disse uskyldige liv – og en af Kims egne folk må betale den højeste pris. Muligvis den bedste i Kim Stone-serien indtil nu. … Livsfarlig sandhed er et overflødighedshorn af hemmeligheder, løgne og trusler - Chapter In My Life Wauw, sikke en bog!

Eltz Castle - Dieter Ritzenhofen - Bog - De Gruyter - Plusbog.dk

Eltz Castle - Dieter Ritzenhofen - Bog - De Gruyter - Plusbog.dk

Eltz Castle near Koblenz deeply impressed many visitors. The German art-historian Georg Dehio declared it 'the castle par exellence'. This book describes its history and takes readers through the interior of the castle as well as through the treasure vault. Victor Hugo was simply impressed by the castle: " High, mighty, suprising, sombre" , he wrote in his diary after his visit and continued: " I have never seen anything like it." To the English travel writer Katharine Macquoid it was " a fairy-tale in stone." Eltz Castle with its 85 -years history and its picturesque setting still is the quintessence of a castle today.

BRUGT BOG Ny udgave med nyt omslag af Abraham Vergheses bestseller fra 2009. Tvillingebrødrene Marion og Shiva Stone er frugten af et dramatisk og forbudt kærlighedsforhold mellem en indisk nonne og en britisk kirurg, som begge arbejder på Missing – et hospital drevet af nonner i Addis Abeba. Fra den dag brødrene fødes på missionshospitalet har de kun hinanden: Moren dør i barselssengen, og faren forsvinder sporløst. Mellem brødrene opstår et stærkt bånd, ikke mindst på grund af deres fælles lidenskab for medicin og lægegerningen. Men deres opvækst er ikke udramatisk i et Etiopien, der befinder sig på randen af revolution og kaos. Det bliver dog ikke politik, men kærlighed til den samme pige, Genet, der splitter brødrene og tvinger Marion til at flygte fra sit hjemland. Han tager til New York, hvor han søger tilflugt i sit arbejde som læge på et overfyldt og underbemandet hospital i Bronx’ slum. Da fortiden indhenter ham, tvinges han til at lægge sit liv i hænderne på de to, han stoler mindst på i hele verden – faren, som forlod ham og broren, som forrådte ham. Knivens æg er en uforglemmelig rejse gennem én mands helt specielle liv. En fortælling, der spænder over tre kontinenter og fem årtier - om fædre og sønner, læger og patienter, svigt og selvopofrelse, hjem og eksil.

BRUGT BOG - The Story of Kullervo - J. R. R. Tolkien - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG - The Story of Kullervo - J. R. R. Tolkien - Bog - HarperCollins Publishers - Plusbog.dk

BRUGT BOG The world first publication of a previously unknown work of fantasy by J.R.R. Tolkien, which tells the powerful story of a doomed young man who is sold into slavery and who swears revenge on the magician who killed his father.Kullervo son of Kalervo is perhaps the darkest and most tragic of all J.R.R. Tolkien’s characters. ‘Hapless Kullervo’, as Tolkien called him, is a luckless orphan boy with supernatural powers and a tragic destiny.Brought up in the homestead of the dark magician Untamo, who killed his father, kidnapped his mother, and who tries three times to kill him when still a boy, Kullervo is alone save for the love of his twin sister, Wanona, and guarded by the magical powers of the black dog, Musti. When Kullervo is sold into slavery he swears revenge on the magician, but he will learn that even at the point of vengeance there is no escape from the cruellest of fates.Tolkien wrote that The Story of Kullervo was ‘the germ of my attempt to write legends of my own’, and was ‘a major matter in the legends of the First Age’; his Kullervo was the ancestor of Túrin Turambar, tragic incestuous hero of The Silmarillion. In addition to being a powerful story in its own right, The Story of Kullervo – published here for the first time with the author’s drafts, notes and lecture-essays on its source-work, The Kalevala, is a foundation stone in the structure of Tolkien’s invented world.
