Satori Moments

Our lives are full of satori moments—powerful snippets of time that, when recognized, invite us to awaken, become aware, be present, and find enlightenment. Through inspiring personal stories and wisdom acquired over time, Joni Kirby teaches us that we do not need to be trained to be. Instead, she encourages us to live as Rylan did—awakened, dancing, and celebrating life in the moment. As she leads others on the satori journey of reawakening, also known as Rylan’s untrainings, she reminds us of who we are deep inside, to love, live, and learn in the moment, to laugh often, to remember that all is well because we are one, to embrace the joy that is always within, to breathe in the space of stillness between thoughts, and to intentionally plant our life’s garden—all while embracing the beauty of life. Satori Moments shares anecdotes and wisdom intended to inspire anyone interested in finding their way back to their true selves and the I-ness within.

The word satori literally means understanding. It is that "a-ha" moment, when you finally "get it." It is a word that can, and will, change your life forever. This fun, compassionate, and practical guide will teach you to navigate the stressors in your world and learn to listen to the intelligence that resides in your heart, rather than the programming in your head. Only then can you experience true and lasting joy in your life.

This book presents an original exploration of philosophical questions pertaining to the ways we grasp the Absolute by bringing together the Buddhist notion of interpermeation of all phenomena into contemporary strains of thought in continental philosophy. This text introduces an ontological concept, granularity, deploying it to probe questions concerning the intersection of ontology, ethics, and education. A wide range of issues in metaphysics are covered—including being, nothingness, unity, plurality, truth, change, transformation, subjectivity, contradiction, coherence, potentiality—from the perspective of thinkers such as Hegel, Heidegger, Badiou, Meillassoux, Malabou, Žižek, and Harman.

Nearly a quarter century after the publication of Dan Millman's Way of the Peaceful Warrior, a film adaptation came to the screen in a movie titled "Peaceful Warrior" starring Nick Nolte as Dan's old mentor, "Socrates." Dan had anticipated that many questions might come from viewers of that film, and that it was finally time to write a book that directly addressed the original teachings in his first book, and loosely expressed in the movie. Over the years, readers have asked many compelling questions about mysterious elements in his bestselling classic. In this powerful new work, Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior, Dan selected one hundred key passages and added incisive commentaries to clarify the timeless teachings of his old mentor, Socrates. With practical wisdom gained over the passing decades, Dan now shares fresh insights that readers can apply directly to their everyday lives. Wisdom of the Peaceful Warrior speaks to all adventurous souls seeking a deeper understanding of themselves and their lives. For Dan Millman’s loyal readers as well as those new to his work, this book reveals how to live each day with a peaceful heart and a warrior spirit.

This anthology deals with these very topics. The main themes are priority and growth, thus making the title of the book: “Flourish Your Being”. The authors have shared diligently, with utmost care and precision their deepest fears, their challenges of childhood and adulthood alike, their progress or self-growth and how their priorities changed over time and have shown how they overcame these hurdles that life threw at them. They have also talked about their dreams, and the hopelessness that comes when it seems as if the dream is unattainable. They have expressed the feeling of exhilaration they felt when they realized their self-worth while reminiscing about their life from the very beginning, thus explaining both the pessimistic and optimistic sides of themselves to which we all can relate with ease. The focus being sometimes more on the “dark side” of life, and expressing the anger and hurt in an intricate way while playing with words. As this dark part is also important; it is the struggle that makes us reach to a higher summit and makes us strong and resilient for further challenges in life and gives us the strength to face our problems, to be realistic instead of a procrastinator. Several of the authors have also pointed out about their relationships with other people, how the equations changed over time, how the people whom they have loved and on whom they had an unbreakable trust betrayed them, and how despite all this they decided to forgive them and move on. We hope this anthology will prove to be an inspirational piece of work, and that the readers will enjoy by connecting with the authors in their personal journeys. Some of the works are fictional, or modified.
