The Journey Home

Product Information

One group of second-generation members made the trip together with their survivor or former refugee parents. Others went after their parents’ death. Those with elderly parents, unable to travel, went without them but often communicated to them how they had retraced their family history. Some undertook the journey to help them come to terms with the burden of the past. Others saw it as part of the grieving process for a lost world and family that they would never know. The book is about a small polar bear who is looking for a new home because the ice is melting away where he lives and there is no food. Along the way he meets a series of animals who become his friends.

He previously co-edited a book on contested Mediterranean spaces and is currently on the editorial committee of Exiled Ink, devoted to works by exiled writers. This book won the Sendak fellow - an award named after the author of ‘Where the wild things are’. The book is has a clear and powerful message of conservation – the pictures in the book aren’t very colour, but they portray the bleak future of a world which fails to converse its environment. The book shows the grey images of polluted cities, and the clear cutting of rainforest. You might be experiencing the effects of known and unknown trauma. We all have life wounds – good news we can heal from them. I like this book because it relays an important message about the impact human’s actions have on the world and its inhabitants. If we do not work to protect our environment then it could have dire consequences for future generations. This book teaches children about the importance of home and how their actions can affect the lives of animals in the world.

The Journey Home by David Clark, Teresa von - Waterstones

Westerners especially those who have an Indian heritage can relate to the stories of great individuals like Radhanath Swami. He is a living saint, master and it has been my great fortune to have his darshan on two occasions. Figure 12.2.Family Portrait Christmas 1951.

Living with humiliation: Reflections on a trip to Berlin with my father (Teresa von Sommaruga Howard)For some time, I had been troubled by a fundamental philosophical dispute over whether God was ultimately impersonal or personal. On the one hand, I had heard some yogis and philosophers profess that ultimately God is impersonal and formless, but that he accepts a temporary material form as an avatara when He descends into the world for the benefit of all beings. After accomplishing His mission, He again merges into His formless existence. All form and personality, according to the impersonalists, is a nonpermanent product of material illusion. In the final state of liberation, the soul sheds its temporary identity and becomes one with God, merging into the all-pervading spiritual existence. The Journey Intensive is a hands-on, experiential workshop where you learn the work through your own process, ‘turning the flashlight on inside’, facing your own inner issues, forgiving and completing with them – setting yourself free. The powerful teachings of The Journey were born from Brandon’s own direct experience of healing from a large tumor in just 6 ½ weeks – without drugs or surgery. On the other hand, I had heard other yogis and philosophers profess that God is the Supreme Person, that His spiritual form is eternal, full of knowledge and bliss. At the time of liberation, the soul enters into the kingdom of God where it eternally serves the all-beautiful Personality of God in pure love.
