Item/service:
OAXACAN WOOD CARVED MASK
Description:
Beautifully painted handmade original elaborate wood carved mask
with real goat horns. We purchased this mask about 12 years ago
in Mexico- artist unknown. This carved face mask has an extra long
tounge and is sporting a serpent and a beard. We think this mask
was weathered (cracked, mud-enhanced...either in wild rituals or
intent to look like it was used in this way) and made to look older
than it actually is it; but as you can see it's a truly a spectacular
piece.
Location:
Will ship anywhere.
Value
of item: $200 (plus postage if shipped outside the US)

ONE
NAKED BABY
"One naked baby, two fat cats, three laundry baskets, four
silly hats...."
"The pictures tell the story in this charming counting book...the
joyous, jewel-toned watercolor illustrations present a more complex
and nuanced narrative...the many details will spark preschoolers'
imaginations, extending the book's appeal to a much wider audience..."
--School Library Journal
PAISLEY
Paisley is an elephant on a mission.
He's been sitting on the shelf at Big 'n Little Toys too long--
waiting and hoping for that Special Someone, his Perfect Match,
to come along. But sometimes an elephant has to take matters into
his own hands. Sometimes you have to go out and search for what
you want.
And so Paisley sets out on a perilous quest for love...
DESSER
THE BEST EVER CAT
"...cheerfully detailed art...reaffirms the mutual
affection between child and pet...
the artwork inbues the cat with expression and personality while
remaining true
to the animal's nature..
..this tale, with it's agile balance of humor and pathos, and
it's emphasis on the
importance of both treasuring memories and beginning anew...is
for anyone
who has ever loved a pet."--Publishers Weekly

The
Musicans and the Servants:A Novel of India
1972, re-published in 2006
Website: www.musiciansandservants.com
This
novel revolves around the story of an impoverished servant family
in Northern India, and the sublime music that comes out of the same
culture. The reader is immersed in the heat and squalor of the Ganges
plain and in an extraordinary all-night concert; above all, we are
immersed in the Eastern world view, wherein death and life are part
of the same Whole.
Seven
Movements, One Song: Memoir
as Metaphor
www.seven-movements-one-song.com
Using the Chakra System as a framework, this novel is a telling of
seven stories that reflect the quality and function of each of the
energy centers of the body. Physical survival, sexual attraction,
transformation, bonding, communication, understanding and finally
spiritual vision are explored metaphorically in seven stories.
The stories are but seven movements of a single song – a single life
– and like everyone’s stories, they resonate to the ultimate sound
of the cosmos.
The
Experience of a Lifetime: Living Fully, Dying Consciously
Website:www.livingfullydyingconsciously.com
How can we live our lives fully up to our last moments, and then die
well when it is our time to die? The author asks that question as
she helps four terminally ill people – a botanist, an artist, a
naturalist and an opera singer – prepare for death. She tells of
their experiences – and her own – as each declines physically and
emerges spiritually.
This book explores how we can learn to accept our own mortality and
in the process, discover what it means to love. By loving, we may
glimpse a many-dimensioned universe wherein life and death are part
of the same glorious Whole.
Ecstatic
Relations: A Memoir of Love
Fall, 2006
Website:www.ecstaticrelations.com
The energy matrix of the universe is in constant motion. This novel
is about the attractive force of the universe as it plays out in
human lives. Falling in love is the theme, and ecstasy is the vibration.Links:

 In collaboration

CANDLE IN THE NIGHT:
Four Seasons in the Life of a Man with AIDS
My
work with people preparing to make their passage revolves around
helping them make that final statement about themselves that sums
up their life journey. It takes many forms,
depending upon the person and the illness, and it provides important
healing of the heart and soul before the person takes his/her leave.
Duncan’s book emerged into the world just as he slipped out of it.

Crop
Circles: Hoax or Happening
1992
Two men in their sixties have claimed the
crop circle designs as theirs – a hoax dreamed up over a pint at
the pub. But single circles, over the decades, have become complex
works of art on the grand scale, appearing by the hundreds all over
the world. They have shown up in snow and pine trees and rice paddies,
as well as fields of grain.Never has anyone been caught
making them – except those avowed to be hoaxes – and never has a
single careless footprint appeared near a newly formed design. What’s
going on here?

Crop
Circles
2001
This is an update of the earlier
Crop Circle book, published by a different Press in a slightly larger
format. The production was done sloppily, I’m afraid. However it
contains interesting new information and pictures, as of 2001.
Synchronicity:
The Anatomy of Coincidence
1994
C.G.Jung called synchronicities “meaningful
coincidences that could not be explained by cause and effect.” But
where can we look for explanations?Like a hunter-gatherer,
the author has sought the answers in subjects as diverse as Hermetic
philosophy and fractal geometry, Tibetan Buddhism and Jungian psychology,
ancient Chinese divination and quantum mechanics, early medieval
art and chaos theory. And discovers a host of extraordinary coincidences!
The stories of her own experiences of synchronicity bridge the gap
between mystical wonder, the New Physics and the ordinary daily
life of all of us.

Death
: The Experience of a Lifetime
1997
(Single copies available free to Hospice workers and Thanatologists.)
Every
one of us, without exception, is going to die. Yet most of us are
fearful, in denial or determined to beat the odds. Perhaps there
is another way to confront our inevitable destiny. Could we not
regard death as one stage of a natural life-death-life cycle in
which what we call Death is but one aspect of a larger Life?Here is a look at the evidence coming
from cell biologists, near-death experiencers and wisdom traditions
from all over the world.
