Understanding the Moments That Touch and Transform Our Lives Who hasn't experienced that eerie coincidence, that sudden, baffling insight, that occasional flash of extrasensory perception that astonishes? Can these events be dismissed as mere chance, or do they have some deeper significance for us? The twenty-fifth anniversary edition of this classic explores the inter-relationship between these meaningful coincidences and our intuitive sense that we are part of some deep oneness with the universe -- a oneness called Tao in Eastern philosophy and synchronicity in Jungian psychology. By relating the concepts of Tao and synchronicity, Dr. Bolen reveals important links between psychology and mysticism, right brain and left, the individual and the external world. The Tao of Psychology provides the key for each individual to interpret the synchronistic events in his or her life and gives fresh insight into the relationships, dreams, and flashes of perception that transform our existence.

Tra i segreti più paurosi di Londra si nasconde la storia di un misterioso assassino. Un uomo di nome Sweeney Todd, un mostro capace di occultare le sue insane passioni dietro l'insegna di un'innocua bottega di barbiere in Fleet Street. Proprio qui diverse persone scomparse sono state viste per l'ultima volta: uomini andati a ingrossare le fila dei fantasmi dopo aver incontrato Sweeney Todd. Più sanguinario di Jack lo squartatore e più crudele di Mr. Hyde, Sweeney Todd non uccide in preda a un impulso efferato o agli effetti indesiderati di un farmaco ma, con fredda determinazione, toglie la vita al prossimo per soddisfare la sua sete di denaro e per adempiere a un terrificante rituale: dopo aver smembrato il corpo delle vittime a colpi di rasoio, infatti, il barbiere di Fleet Street consegna i resti di chi ha ucciso a una complice, che provvede a occultarli grazie a uno stratagemma bestiale. Capolavoro della letteratura gotica, Sweeney Todd, con le sue gesta sanguinarie, ha anticipato il Dracula di Stoker e il Frankenstein di Mary Shelley, aggredendo le ipocrite convenzioni della letteratura e della società vittoriana. Dopo numerosi musical che hanno avuto uno straordinario successo, nel 2007 Tim Burton si è ispirato a questo personaggio per un film in cui Sweeney Todd è interpretato da Johnny Depp.

Does God exist? Can spirituality be integrated with science? Is happiness possible? Do miracles really happen? Not only does The Visionary Window answer "yes" to all of these questions, but it skillfully combines the fields of philosophy, cosmology, religion, and psychology to form a new way of thinking about science and spirituality. Stepping beyond the classic work of prominent seventies physicist Fritjof Capra, Goswami details his own pioneering exploration of science and spirit, revealing the complete integration between modern science and spiritual traditions. Using stories and colorful examples from pop culture, Goswami addresses complex issues in language and terminology easily accessible to the lay reader. He provides quantum physics-based theory and new experimental data verifying the metaphysical truth that exists when employed in the context of a new science, science within the primacy of consciousness. With a new holistic worldview, Goswami also discusses the creativity of the body to self heal; the power of spiritual practice and how to choose a meditative path; and the five stages of spiritual growth, culminating in the ability to transcend the physical laws of nature. Readers, scientists and spiritual leaders alike will find answers to many of life's deepest mysteries.
