Body, Mind & Spirit / Spirituality / Guidance The gentle but powerful messages in this book are offered as an aid to contacting our divine source and can be used as a complete teaching in how to live a spiritual life. “Do not waste time looking at the chaos and confusion in the world but start putting it right within yourself. Quietly go about doing My will. You do not have to talk about it but simply live it. Transform the chaos and confusion in your own life to peace, serenity, tranquillity and become a useful member of society and the world you live in. Start with yourself where you know you can do something, and then work outward.” Footprints on the Path will bring you total faith in the process of living--to trust God, the universe, spirit, love, or whatever we choose to call the divine source. Eileen Caddy (1917-2006) is known worldwide as one of the three founders of the Findhorn Foundationin Scotland. The books that have flowed from her inspiration have drawn multitudes to the Findhorn community. In her own person, Eileen Caddy, divinely ordinary as she described herself, has pushed the limits of the ordinary person’s experience to the very borders of the kingdom of God.

Did Marco Polo reach China? This richly illustrated companion volume to the public television film chronicles the remarkable two-year expedition of explorers Denis Belliveau and Francis O'Donnell as they sought the answer to this controversial 700-year-old question. With Polo's book, The Travels of Marco Polo, as their guide, they journeyed over 25,000 miles becoming the first to retrace his entire path by land and sea without resorting to helicopters or airplanes. Surviving deadly skirmishes and capture in Afghanistan, they were the first Westerners in a generation to cross its ancient forgotten passageway to China, the Wakhan Corridor. Their camel caravan on the southern Silk Road encountered the deadly singing sands of the Taklamakan and Gobi deserts. In Sumatra, where Polo was stranded waiting for trade winds, they lived with the Mentawai tribes, whose culture has remained unchanged since the Bronze Age. They became among the first Americans granted visas to enter Iran, where Polo fulfilled an important mission for Kublai Khan. Accompanied by 200 stunning full-color photographs, the text provides a fascinating account of the lands and peoples the two hardy adventurers encountered during their perilous journey. The authors' experiences are remarkably similar to descriptions from Polo's account of his own travels and life. Laden with adventure, humor, diplomacy, history, and art, this book is compelling proof that travel is the enemy of bigotry—a truth that resonates from Marco Polo's time to our own.

What is the Buddha's teaching really? What we're really talking about is love. We're talking about kindness and compassion, and about how to remove and release the grasping of duality. This isn't only taught in Buddhism. The nature isn't dominated by any one tradition. The nature is free, open, and relaxed.The Buddha simply pointed out the way the nature is. This is what the gracious teacher Buddha taught and what he practiced. His actions followed his words. He was humble and simple, and walked with bare feet, holding an alms bowl, picking up his own food along with his students.The Buddha loved all living beings like his only child. Love and compassion have no boundaries. We need to reactivate these beautiful qualities within ourselves. This will make our lives meaningful. We will be happy, peaceful, and joyful in this life, and we will leave this life with joy, peace, and happiness. We will also leave a good legacy and example for our family members, friends, neighbors, and for everyone we're connected with.
