This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed....

Story
The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Story
The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

The Qur'an, believed by Muslims to be the word of God, was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad 1,400 years ago. It is the supreme authority in Islam and the living source of all Islamic teaching; it is a sacred text and a book of guidance that sets out the creed, rituals, ethics, and laws of the Islamic religion. It has been one of the most influential books in the history of literature. Recognized as the greatest literary masterpiece in Arabic, it has nevertheless remained difficult to understand in its English translations.

This Meditation book will help you embrace meditation, no matter your prior experiences!
I loved the description and examples the author shared in this beautiful meditation book so much…. She made it truly simple and yet deeply understandable; even for the beginning meditator! I loved her suggestion and encouragement to make daily meditation a regular ritual practice because meditation is cumulative and subtle. I recommend this book to anyone looking to create shifts in their life through the art of meditation.

Great introduction to meditation!
“Meditation for the Modern Mind” is a really well written and well presented book. Meditation made simple! It is a great introduction for new mediators and an inspiring reminder for those who have been too “busy” to remember engaging in their daily practice. I loved the loving kindness practice, the description of Tonglen, Vipassana, and the breathing exercises. This is a great and easy to read book!

A Simple Way to Find Your Calm Place!
I heard a lot about Meditation lately but didn't know much about it, or where to start, or how to start. I was a bit sceptical at first as I didn't think this would help me as I've always been a person that has to stay busy and be thinking about things. This book has really changed my perspective! It approaches and explains this practice in a way that I understand and breaks all the techniques down in small incremental steps that are doable for me to follow. I'm usually very busy but now when I even have five or ten minutes I am able to clear my mind and pick one or two things to focus on. The result is that I feel more relaxed and focused on being able to get to the rest of my day without being too stressed about what I need to accomplish. I'm still trying to get the hang of it and some days I do better at it than others but on a whole I'd say that this is Meditation is really working. If you've ever thought to try it yourself you'll find this book very helpful. It will give you the basics to get started.

Transform Stress Into Calm With Meditation
I loved how the author, B.M. Wolf, made meditation so accessible and practical in *Meditation for the Modern Mind*. The chapter on mindful breathing, especially the 4-7-8 breath technique, was explained so simply that I was able to implement it immediately. I also appreciated the thoughtful suggestions for creating a calming meditation space—it truly made a difference in my practice. Wolf’s step-by-step guide to the body scan meditation helped me release tension I didn’t even know I was carrying. This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to reduce stress and find inner peace.
