The Projective Arc: Guru Visions and Theological Tethering , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 100min
What Faqir Chand has discovered is that religious visions, no matter how profound or uplifting, are self-generated and are not due to the miraculous energies of a saint or an esteemed master. Yet, disciples worldwide tend to believe otherwise and thereby project power and omniscience on their respective gurus who, in truth, have neither. Therein lies the great religious trap. An unscrupulous guru is akin to a parasitic vampire who psychically lives off the deepest yearnings and sincerest intentions of their devotees, never letting on that they are completely devoid of power. What power a guru gets is entirely due to the faith and devotion of their following, but seldom do they reveal this fact. Faqir repeatedly rallies against this deception and consistently tells all who will listen that he is completely unaware of appearing to anyone in their dreams, meditation, or near-death experiences. He wants spiritual seekers to know the truth that all such visions are manifestations of their own mind and that to be truly liberated one has to recognize these projections as one's own and transcend them. Otherwise one is deceived by Maya and entrapped in an endless cycle of samsara. No guru in the history of Radhasoami has told the truth in such stark terms as has Faqir Chand. It is for this reason that Faqir is just as relevant today as he was in the 20th century, if not even more so. This book contains excerpts from Faqir Chand describing the true nature behind religious visions and miracles. Also included are several prefatory essays explaining how the projective arc and religious tethering actually work. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: James Killavey.

American Legends: The Life of Johnny Carson , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 76min
I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself. (Johnny Carson) A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' American Legends series, listeners can get caught up to speed on the lives of America's most important men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. Among America's comedians, few - if any - have had the kind of influence on pop culture and society like Johnny Carson, the iconic host of The Tonight Show from 1962-1992. In addition to winning too many awards to count, Carson is proof that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, as admitted by subsequent comedy show hosts like Jay Leno and David Letterman, who not only vied to replace Carson but also used his format for their own shows (and still continue to do so). Carson may have pioneered the format of The Tonight Show, but he had already been involved in comedy for decades before then, starting with performances as "The Great Carsoni" when he was still a teen. The magic shows and comedy continued into college, where he had a running gag about interviewing pigeons on rooftops, asking them about a local political controversy. Carson's work was hailed by comedians like Red Skelton, who invited him to become a writer for him, and Jack Benny, who invited him onto the show, all before he had turned 30. For several years during the 1950s, Carson rotated around various daytime shows as host, meeting important friends like Ed McMahon along the way, but he made it big when he replaced Jack Paar as host of The Tonight Show in 1962. ungekürzt.

Peaceful World
One of the most frequent questions I've been asked in recent years is, "When will the new CD be out?" Well, here it is and thank you for your patience. Peaceful World is a labor of love that has been a long time coming. It started as a simple idea from a good friend that grew to include songs with some of the strongest messages I have ever written. Gandhi said, "We must be the change we wish to see in the world." But, sometimes we cannot be the change. Sometimes all we can do is speak out for what we feel is right. The songs I wrote for Peaceful World speak of peace, love and justice. Sometimes the message is abrasive and strong. At other times, the lilting lyrics will soothe and caress. My hope is that in these songs you find inspiration for a peaceful world of your own. As always, my sincerest appreciation for purchasing this CD and supporting independent music. Peace, Steven.- Shop: odax
