Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - THE REDWOODS OF GAIA, a New Age Mirror of the Soul, was intended to be a lecture to be given at some future date. Its thesis is that when ancient human beings developed their neurologically complex brain functioning, the Cosmic Creator bestowed the gift of an intuitive, individuated sentience that would allow these first humans to understand the spiritual dimension of the Creator itself. The author, Kathleen Chan, proposes that this occurred sometime around 55,000 years ago at the advent of Homo sapiens, namely the Cro-Magnons, who emerged on the scene in Europe at that time. Ms. Chan, who holds graduate degrees in both anthropology and social work, has pulled together various ideas to propose this scenario which she believes happened. She points to the sudden appearance of complex naturalistic drawings found in the caves at Lascaux, France, to assert that something miraculous had occurred. In her discussion of the human soul, she analyzes the contributions made by philosophy, religion, and science, as if they were stepping stones in formulating her theory of human spirituality. She draws upon the Theosophy and New Age concept of the inherent divinity of man, rather than the Christian view of man falling from grace after the Garden of Eden. Her book is fascinating, and her final comments regarding the earth's planetary evolution are riveting.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Stan was strongly influenced by his Southern Christian upbringing. Under the pressures of family and career, he attempts to simplify his life by taking a job teaching at a small college in Tifton, Georgia. He needs Tifton to provide that stereotypical small town lifestyle that he had always believed to exist, even though he had never observed it. As that illusion and his marriage both evaporate, he begins to realize that there is a discrepancy between his Southern Christian values and how his keen senses perceive reality. A young Stan is polite with strong religious values. As he grows older, he turns from religion and becomes a bitter, cold man. The book opens with a devastated Stan at the funeral of his former student, Cleave. Cleave has committed suicide, but his motivation is a mystery that is slowly revealed as the story progresses through unlikely international connections to Tifton and Cleave's even more unlikely connection to the September 11, 2001, attack on New York and Washington DC. Cleave's death further changes Stan's perspective of the world and causes him to question all previous conclusions about human interactions and human interactions with God.
