Bøger af George Breed

In this paperback collection of the e-book series titled Meditations of the Heart, author George Breed offers bite-size entries into mindfulness and transformation. Each meditation could be used as a vehicle for greater consciousness-or as a prayer leading to deeper awareness of spiritual reality and being. One Amazon reviewer summarized: "Each tiny gem of a meditation holds meaning beyond and beneath the words, and each provides nourishment for the mind and the heart. Concise, simple, but packed with a powerful load of thought-provoking enlightenment, George Breed gives more to us in his meditations with a dozen or so words than most philosophers give in twelve dozen."

With his trademark earthy exuberance, author George Breed explores the deep meanings within the Gospel of Thomas, giving readers new and surprising insights into the message of Jesus."The Gospel of Thomas is emerging as a true mystical source from the earliest period of what became Christianity. Any commentary on Thomas is worth reading-but this one is a genuine gem!"-FR. RICHARD ROHR, OFM (Center for Action and Contemplation, Albuquerque, New Mexico)"In this lovely book, Dr. George Breed helps to advance the art of seeing, not what rests on surfaces but rather that which lies through and beyond exteriors and forms, and within ourselves. The writer of the Thomas Gospel quotes Jesus as saying, "The kingdom of the Father is spread out upon the earth, and men do not see it." In other words don''t merely look-see! By reading the Thomas Gospel through Dr. Breed''s eyes, we can achieve a glimpse of the divine world in which we live, as well as the mysterious beauty of our inner lives. We can begin to see!"-BRADLEY OLSON, PhD, Jungian Depth Psychologist

"Warriors of spirit" across disciplines (martial arts, healing arts, creative arts, and spiritual arts) embody certain qualities, says the author. Embodying (deeply practicing) these qualities reduces stress, increases energy, expands awareness, deepens confidence, quiets the mind, and enhances creativity. The author has applied knowledge from his PhD in psychology, his 5th-degree Karate black belt, and his own deep spiritual practice to create a practical and deeply spiritual book that spans traditions.

"How can I describe this book? If I say it is brilliant, crazy, hilarious, sobering, vulgar, and sublime, all those words are true-but they are certainly not enough to express the contents of Jesus & Lao Tzu. The book defies being categorized or neatly summarized. It will have to suffice if I say simply this: the book''s words make me happier, freer, and wiser. If you read it with an open heart, I predict it will do the same for you."-Kenneth McIntosh, author of Water from an Ancient Well: Celtic Spirituality for Modern Life

Warriors of spirit across the ages and across disciplines (martial arts, healing arts, creative arts, spiritual arts, political arts) embody certain qualities. In embodying (deeply practicing) these qualities, stress effects are reduced, increased energy results, awareness expands, confidence deepens, the mind grows quiet and more open to creative solutions, right relationship occurs, and the state known as flow becomes one's lifestyle. The embodying of these qualities is an essential next step in the transformation of human consciousness and in the survival of the human species. You are invited to include these qualities on your journey, to sit with them, entertain them, try them on for size, and perhaps find they become you.
