Author Kathleen DuVal argues that it was Indians rather than European would-be colonizers who were more often able to determine the form and content of the relations between the two groups. Along the banks of the Arkansas and Mississippi rivers, far from Paris, Madrid, and London, European colonialism met neither accommodation nor resistance but incorporation. Placing Indians at the center of the story, DuVal shows both their diversity and our contemporary tendency to exaggerate the influence of Europeans in places far from their centers of power.

You’ve seen them in movies and on TV, but cults are more prevalent than you think - and they’re armed with strategies that can brainwash and persuade even the most unlikely of candidates. But how do individuals get involved with cults in the first place, and what steps can be taken to “deprogram” and heal those who have been drawn into these damaging groups? These questions and more are addressed in Cults Inside Out, written by leading cult expert Rick Alan Ross.

As our level of consciousness rises, we become more and more conscious of the oneness of life. This consciousness of the oneness of life is the enlightenment of the human mind. It marks a major transition in human life because it changes how we think, how we feel, how we live, and how we interact with others. It changes both our worldview and our sense of self. We realize that all life is the same life: the life of life itself. We finally understand that life is not created, life itself is the creator.

What makes a person liberal or conservative? Why does the Democratic Party scare off so many possible supporters? When does our "injustice trigger" get pulled, and how can fairness overcome our human need to look for a zero-sum outcome to our political battles? Daniel Meegan suggests that American liberals are just missing the point. If progressives want to win the vote, they need to change strategy completely and champion government benefits for everyone, not just those of lower income. Fairness, he writes, should be selfishly enjoyed by everyone.

Our human life consists of our body, mind, and awareness. These are the three dimensions of our life. Our sense of self begins with our body but increasingly shifts to our mind as we grow into being a functioning adult in our human world of creative activities. Most of us live out our busy lives with our body-mind being our sense of self, and we never get around to discovering the spiritual dimension of our life. The spiritual dimension of our life is our awareness. Our spiritual life is our awakening to our awareness as our true self, our true life, and our eternal home.

Everyone's life consists of only two things: awareness and experiences. Everyone's experiences consist of world, body, and mind. Everyone has different experiences, but everyone's awareness is the same awareness: awareness itself. Experiences are the ever-changing side of life. No experience lasts. Awareness itself is the unchanging side of life. Awareness itself is the experiencer of experiences. Awareness itself transcends world, body, and mind. Awareness itself is life's formless eternal being.

Listening to great writing is a pleasure unto itself. Sometimes the opening paragraph of a work, or even the first sentence, makes it obvious that you are in the hands of a master, and once venturing a few furtive steps onto the path of prose, no matter what forest it enters, valley it descends, or mountain it scales, you will walk the entire distance.

You Are an Idea literally means what it says. You are literally an idea. There are very few among us that possess the level of self-awareness to understand that our reality takes place within a mental structure.

Our understanding of who we are and how we create our own reality is about to make the kind of paradigm shift that no one sees coming, except for a few. Journey with J. Adrian and learn: what consciousness is; why the idea of a universe is outdated; where the theory of everything is hiding; and much more....

There are two sides of life: life's creativity and life's eternal being. Life's creativity is experienced as world, body, and mind. Life's eternal being is experienced as awareness itself. Your true life and self is your awareness, and your awareness is unchanging and unchangeable. As our awareness, we are all one and the same. Awareness is the place of oneness. Everyone's unchanging awareness is life's eternal being. Awareness itself is the place of safety, peace, and freedom. Everything else is a passing experience within life's creativity.
