Start Where You Are by Pema Chödrön
START WHERE YOU ARE
A Guide to Compassionate Living
by Pema Chödrön
START WHERE YOU ARE is an indispensable handbook for cultivating fearlessness and awakening a compassionate heart. With insight and humor, Pema Chödrön, author of The Wisdom of No Escape and When Things Fall Apart, presents down-to-earth guidance on how to make friends with ourselves and develop genuine compassion toward others. The author shows how we can "start where we are" by embracing rather than denying the painful aspects of our lives. Pema Chödrön frames her teachings on compassion around fifty-nine Tibetan Buddhist maxims, or slogans, such as:
- "Always maintain only a joyful mind"
- "Don't seek others' pain as the limbs of your own happiness"
- "Always meditate on whatever provokes resentment"
- "Be grateful to everyone"
Working with these slogans and through the practice of meditation, Start Where You Are shows how we can all develop the courage to work with our own inner pain and discover joy, well-being, and confidence.

The Science Of Mind, Original 1926 Text by Ernest HolmesThe Science of Mind
Original 1926 Text
By Ernest Holmes
An Unrivaled Technique for Spiritual Living in a World of Constant Change. In the early part of the twentieth century, a visionary named Ernest Holmes began a journey of exploration and research that profoundly affected thinkers throughout America. His work, based on the teachings of the great philosophers, the sacred wisdom of both Eastern and Western traditions, and the empirical nature of science, offers a philosophy of religion and psychology emphasizing the limitless potential of the human mind. This book contains the fundamentals of Holmes's teachings and is a primary resource used by teaching centers and spiritual healers worldwide. Its universal principles apply to people of all spiritual backgrounds as they describe a higher level of existence attainable through the use of Nature's forces and the power of God."There is One Infinite Life acting through Law, and this Law is mental; the Law is Mind in action. We are surrounded by an Infinite, Subconscious, Impersonal, Neutral, Plastic, Creative, Ever-Present, Thinking Stuff from which all things come, which, in Its Original State, permeates and penetrates all things. By impressing our thought upon this Substance we can cause It to produce for us that which we think, to the limit of our ability to mentally embody the idea."

Flying on rooftops of homes and monasteries, from bridges and trees in the countryside, they offer blessings on the wind. This beautiful tradition dates back to the 10th century.
As the flags wave in the wind, the colors fade, and so the prayers are lifted and carried around the world. Prayer flags are hung with respect and intention to celebrate new beginnings: a new relationship, a new home, a birth, a new journey and always the New Year! They help insure luck and success for new ventures. When they are tattered and worn out, it is customary to burn them. May they benefit all beings.
Our flags are respectfully made in Kathmandu, Nepal by Buddhist printmakers. The flags are made of 100% cotton. We have developed an excellent relationship with our printers and all of the We
