DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Grace breeds delight in God, and delight breeds meditation. Meditation is a duty wherein consists the essentials of religion, and which nourishes the very life-blood of it. That the Psalmist may show how much the godly man is habituated to this blessed work of meditation, he subjoins, "In his law does he meditate day and night;" not but that there may be sometimes intermission: God allows time for our calling, he grants some relaxation; but when it is said, the godly man meditates day and night, the meaning is, frequently-he is much conversant in the duty.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Author of the very successful A Diary of Prayer: Daily Meditations on the Parables of Jesus, J. Barrie Shepherd now offers prayers for the forty days, drawing on some of the best-loved passages of Scriptures. In the tradition of John Baille's great British classic A Diary of Private Prayer, Shepherd provides daily morning and evening reflections based on such well-known passages from the Sermon on the Mount as the Beatitudes, the Lord's Prayer, the salt of the earth, and the lilies of the field. Each day begins with a Bible verse and is followed by prayers for morning and evening based on the verse. For example, reflecting on the passage Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven," Shepherd writes:"Help me this day, as I confront the poor, ...help me to see them as you always knew them... brothers, sisters, fellow members of God's family. Then encourage me to spend my time, my gifts, my self in such ways as even yet may prove a blessing to at least one other human being who is less well off than I. Amen."This is a book for anyone, clergy as well as laity, interested in recapturing the original power and challenges of Jesus' words.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Evola articulates the close relationship between the physical rigors of mountain climbing and the ascent of the initiate toward self-transcendence. Julius Evola, a leading exponent of esoteric thought, was also an ardent mountain climber who personally scaled the peaks of the Tyrols, Alps, and Dolomites. For Evola the physical conquest of a mountain, with all the courage, self-transcendence and mental lucidity that it entails, becomes an inseparable and complementary part of spiritual awakening. It is no coincidence that many ancient cultures chose mountains as the abodes of their gods and considered the rigorous ascent of peaks as the task of heroes and initiates. In modern times, which tend to suffocate the heroic with naked self interest, the mountain still forms part of the profound dimension of spirit where the soul finds within itself more than what it thought itself to be. In Meditations on the Peaks, Evola combines recollections of his own experiences with reflections on other inspirational men and women who shared his view of the transcendent greatness of mountains.
