The prophet
by Zeina Abirached
"The night before embarking on a long journey which will take him back to his homeland, the young Almustafa, "the chosen and loved," responds to questions from residents of the city of Orphalese. Among them, he particularly addresses the Prophetess Almitra, who is keen to learn his teachings and wisdom on the big questions of human life: love, friendship, talent, self-awareness, time, good and evil, reason and passion, beauty and pleasure, suffering-everything including death. In this philosophical and spiritual narrative, reproduced here in its full text, Zeina Abirached creates a graphic novel full of light and shadows, exploring the most lyrical images to the most conceptual passages. A tour-de-force that Abirached brings to life with her characteristic style, this volume will attract and inspire readers of all ages as it pays a beautiful tribute to its author and celebrates 100 hundred years of The Prophet, whose beauty and power continues to inspire and surprise us"

Embodied Awakeness - Diving into the Deep End of Spirituality by Fion A.Embodied Awakeness is a concrete, experiential guide to spiritual awakening and embodiment. With a profound directness it presents the underlying mechanics, orienting descriptions, and core principles that are essential in the process of waking up to the truth of our being beyond familiar notions of self and bringing a depth of awareness into daily life as a lived experience. This is not a book that lays out theories and speculations or goes into useless debates and irrelevant mind-based discussions, nor is it about heightened, mystical, trippy states of consciousness. In addition, the words written here are not meant to be taken as some absolute truth, rather, they serve as an invitation, as strategic pointers or sign posts towards 'taking spirituality all the way' into embodiment. All the way back to life's rightful custody, to the One river, to the One whole, where true peace and belongingness is found. May this book serve as an insightful companion on your journey to discovering another way of operating in this world, touching upon that pocket of divine unification, and engaging with life from a space of alignment and wholeness. When the mind is done trying to ascend, trying to transcend, Spirit is then finally allowed to descend, for it desires to be embodied. The movement of spirit to be grounded in the world of form.  |
