Food For The Heart And Mind
Collected over many years, this thoughtfully curated treasury of readings reaches out across multiple cultures and traditions. Open it on almost any page and you will find something to inspire you. It is awash with masterpieces of the writer's craft.
This literary gem is artfully organized under twelve headings which is itself a poem of a kind, and reads as follows:
At First, An Arousing
Secondly, A Gathering
Third, An Exploration
The Fourth Is A Procession
The Fifth, A Pondering
The Sixth, A Sallying Forth
The Seventh Is A Peregrination
The Eighth Entails A Mission
The Ninth Becomes A Quest
Then Proceeds A Pilgrimage
Penultimately, A Returning
And Finally, A Recurrence
Each of these lines refers to a chapter containing nine separate works of poetry or prose, each occupying just a few pages.
So it comprises 108 readings, harvested from the works of literary giants. A few you will undoubtedly be familiar with, but some will be entirely new to the reader. The book includes three previously unpublished poems by Rina Hands, as well as a few other previously unpublished works. It includes poetry or prose from:
Lao Tzu, The Dalai Lama,G Gurdjieff, Rainer Maria Rilke, Jalal ad-Dīn Rumi, Arthur Schopenhauer, Walt Whitman, St Francis, Avicenna, Alexander Pushkin, Honoré de Balzac, John Milton, Marcus Aurelius, St Paul, Fyodor Dostoyevsky, William Blake, Khalil Gibran, Arthur Rimbaud, John Bunyan, Red Hawk, Immanual Joseph, John Keats, René Daumal, Li Po, William Shakespeare, The Bible, Federico Garcia Lorca, Edgar Allan Poe, Tacitus, Lewis Carroll, Soren Kirkegaard, Farid ud-Din Attar, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, Alfred Lord Tennyson,Chuang Tzu, Omar Khayyam, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Ivan Turgenev, W B Yeats, Charles Causley, Emily Dickinson and many others.
It is a book you will dip into again and again, a book for the coffee table, not the bookshelf.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to moluna, Greven, Germany, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
