In Masquerade, Alfred F. Young scrapes through layers of fiction and myth to uncover the story of Deborah Sampson, a Massachusetts woman who passed as a man and fought as a soldier for seventeen months toward the end of the American Revolution. Deborah Sampson was not the only woman to pose as a male and fight in the war, but she was certainly one of the most successful and celebrated. She managed to fight in combat and earn the respect of her officers and peers, and in later years she toured the country lecturing about her experiences and was partially successful in obtaining veterans' benefits. Her full story, however, was buried underneath exaggeration and myth (some of which she may have created herself), becoming another sort of masquerade. Young takes the reader with him through his painstaking efforts to reveal the real Deborah Sampson in a work of history that is as spellbinding as the best detective fiction. Product details ...

A new perspective on the overused and misunderstood concept of 'karma' that offers the key to happiness and enlightenment, from the internationally bestselling author and world-renowned spiritual master Sadhguru. What is karma? Most people understand karma as a balance sheet of good and bad deeds, virtues and sins-the mechanism that decrees that we cannot evade the consequences of our own actions. In reality, karma has nothing to do with reward and punishment. Karma simply means action- your action, your responsibility. It isn't some external system of crime and punishment, but an internal cycle generated by you. Accumulation of karma is determined only by your intention and the way you respond to what is happening to you. Over time, it's possible to become ensnared by your own unconscious patterns of behavior. In Karma, Sadhguru seeks to put you back in the driver's seat, turning you from a terror-struck passenger to a confident driver navigating the course of ...

Waking up is for the brave. Becoming a seer, and not just a seeker, is not for the faint of heart. It is for the visionaries, the awakeners, the Soul Shifters. It is for you. There are pivotal moments in the lives of all seekers when we realize that we've been travelling on our path of growth towards happiness and fulfilment, but, simply put, we want to go faster. How we have been living, working and loving just isn't enough or even acceptable anymore. We know we're being called to something more significant and expanded - we can feel it. At these times what's needed is not simply more change or an adjustment in our outer life, but profound transformation. We don't just want to rearrange the pieces of ourselves so that they look better temporarily. We want nothing less than rebirth. We are ready for Soul Shifts. Soul Shifts are radical, vibrational internal shifts that spontaneously and inevitably transform the way you relate to yourself, to others and to the wo...

Lo que ahora os contaré es tan cierto como que el fuego quema y el hielo, también. Sabed, amigos míos, que dos pueblos, dos grandes clanes, habitaban una tierra apartada del resto del mundo. Se creían tan diferentes como la noche lo es del día, y en verdad, os lo aseguro, lo eran. Amante del coraje y de las armas era el clan Kranyal; guerreros de bravo corazón y maestría en el arte de la lucha. Protectores de la vida y la serenidad eran los Djendel, pacíficos sacerdotes bendecidos con habilidades que iban más allá de lo natural, cuyo uso restringían con estrictos códigos. Sus historias discurrían por separado, pero un día la frágil armonía quedó alterada y el entramado del destino cambió para siempre. Ambos pueblos salvaron sus recelos y uni...
