Little Thoughts, Big Oughts


Book Description




Considerations of Mind - a Buddhist Enquiry


Book Description

Considerations of Mind - a Buddhist Enquiry This volume primarily focuses upon the Yogācāra- Vijñānavādin concepts of mind and its means of expression such as the various consciousnesses, the nature of the bījas, and the ālayavijñāna. From this basis, related topics such as the nature of light, the simile of a river with respect to the flow of a consciousness-stream, and the nāḍīs that convey prāṇas, are explored. This allows consideration of the attributes of time and certain chakras that exist below the diaphragm. The ‘soul’ concept then comes into view and its relation to śūnyatā is revealed.




"Little" Thoughts for the Day


Book Description

A book of daily spiritual encouragement for elementary school children, written by a dedicated Christian educator. As a principal at a Christian elementary school, Joyce O’Bryant would start each morning by greeting her students over the intercom with a prayer and an inspiring thought for the day. Those thoughts and prayers became the basis for this book: a source of Christian encouragement and motivation aimed at pre-school to fifth grade students, speaking to the issues many students deal with on a daily basis throughout the school year. “Little” Thoughts for the Day can be used by elementary administrators and teachers to help students start their days with uplifting thoughts, or by parents who wish to share the thoughts with their children before they leave for school each day. Formatted according to the school year calendar, “Little” Thoughts for the Day includes thoughts relating to various holidays and school activities that make a “big” difference for their young ones.

The Beach at Night


Book Description

A “beautifully written” dark fable from a doll’s point of view—by the New York Times–bestselling author of The Lost Daughter and the Neapolitan Novels (The Washington Post). One of NPR’s Best Books of the Year. Readers of Elena Ferrante’s The Lost Daughter may recall the little doll—lost or stolen—around which that novel revolves. Here, Ferrante retells the tale from the doll’s perspective. Celina is having a terrible night, one full of jealousy for the new kitten, Minù; feelings of abandonment and sadness; misadventures at the hands of the beach attendant; and dark dreams. But she will be happily found by Mati, her child, once the sun rises . . . “Everyone should read anything with Ferrante’s name on it.” —The Boston Globe
