Lao Zi is believed to have been born in 604, during the Chou Dynasty. Little is known of his life and there is some speculation that he was mythical.

Elements of Creation was written and produced from ancient wisdom that was rediscovered while traveling in India. We are all perfect in what we create. Each of us creates what is paramount for us, and in the excitement of that process, we desire to share that creation with others. This audiobook was not written to change your mind about anything. It is produced so that you can consider alternative possibilities. There is not one true and correct way to stumble upon the intelligence of the universal mind.

Händelserna som tilldrar sig i Markusevangeliet tar sin början efter Jesus möte med Johannes döparen. Det blir ett omvälvande möte som för in Jesus på den väg som kommer att göra honom till en av världens mest mytomspunna och viktiga gestalter. För att sprida sin lära samlar Jesus ihop lärljungar ur olika skikt i samhället och ger sig ut på en profetisk resa. Men det blir snart tydligt att makten inte ser blitt på hans försök att sprida kristendomens lära. Jesus blir snart fängslad och torterad till döds. Men berättelsen tar inte slut där.

"Grazie per aver aperto questo libro. Che c'è dentro? Non lo saprete mai, se non lo leggete. Ma vi daremo qualche piccola indicazione. Giusto per disorientarvi un po'. Se non siete disposti a deragliare di un millimetro dalle vostre rassicuranti abitudini, dal primo caffè mattutino all'ultimo film prima di andare a letto, questo libro non vi serve.

Sua escrita vai além de fronteiras religiosas, alcançando leitores de muitas fés e origens.

The investigator who seeks to develop exact and careful conception of realities in a realm as temperamental as the occult faces from the beginning unsuspected difficulties. Every defining term as well as every accepted teaching and doctrine is variously interpreted by the different groups of students. Here is a field in which the most sincere teachers are swept into narrow prejudice by the sheer fire of their enthusiasm and so seem universally to emphasize their differences one from the other when they could as well build upon a meeting ground of common understanding.

Artha-shastra is about generating food, i.e. wealth, by creating goods and services; Kama-shastra is about indulging our hungers with this food. Dharma-shastra insists we consider the hunger of others, while Moksha-shastra is about outgrowing our hungers, in order to be detached and generous. Together, these four Hindu shastras provide a framework within which human action, its purposes and consequences, can be defined; together, they validate human existence and give it meaning.

Come possiamo vivere meglio, appieno, e trovare il senso profondo della nostra esistenza? Come possiamo sentirci felici nonostante i problemi e le preoccupazioni quotidiane? Questo audiolibro cerca di dare qualche risposta a queste domande, di farci vedere la vita da un altro punto di vista, di darci una mano in questi tempi in cui l'incertezza sembra essere l'unica certezza. Che siamo buddisti o meno, alla fine non ha alcuna importanza. L'importante è che possiamo dare e trovare la lifefulness, la felicità in questo mondo. Tutto il resto è secondario. Felicità in questo mondo.

Aber wo genau ist "zu Hause?" Und könnte man sich nicht vielleicht auch in der Fremde daheim fühlen? Der kleine Buddha überlegt, was "zu Hause" sein wirklich bedeutet. Dazu begibt er sich von seinem Lieblingsplatz unter dem Bodhi-Baum auf eine weitere Reise und damit zugleich auf die abenteuerliche Suche nach der eigenen Heimat. Unterwegs trifft der kleine Buddha über die Begegnung mit verschiedenen Menschen auch auf ganz unterschiedliche Ansichten und Vorstellungen vom eigenen Zuhause: "Zuhause" kann ein Ort sein, aber auch die ganze Welt, eine einzelne Person, vielleicht nur ein Gefühl.

We are face to face with this great world, and our relations to it are manifold. One of these is the necessity we have to live, to till the soil, to gather food, to clothe ourselves, to get materials from nature. We are always making things that will satisfy our needs, always in touch with this great world through hunger and thirst. Then, we have our mind; and our mind seeks its own food. It must find out reason in things, faced with a multiplicity of facts, and bewildered when it cannot find one unifying principle which simplifies the heterogeneity of things.

This little book was first given as an invited lecture in Agra, India, explaining how the differences between religion and science can be overcome by understanding that the nature of consciousness is similar to a Mobius strip....
