1986réf. 051269Brisbane: Hope Vale Mission Board 1986. 182pp appendices bw ills maps. Or pictorial card covers. Small bump to front at foreedge cover and 1 page fading to spine a little minor foxing. SIGNED by author on title page. The story of the Guugu Yimidhirr aborigines who inhabited the area from the Annan River south of Cooktown to the Jennie River 100km to the north and inland to the Normanby River Battle Camp territory from their first sighting of Captain james Cook's Endeavour limping up the coast and beaching on their river Wahalumbaal. Their language became the first aboriginal language to take written form via the pens of Banks and Parkinson - one of those words gangurru has become the symbol of Australia while having been somewhat mangled in translation the kangaroo. Through the enormous disruptions of the gold rush years and epidemics of the white man's diseases and on to the present these people seemed to wane and then rebound like the kangaroo itself. It is also the story of the Lutheran missions and missionaries who served the Guugu Yimidhirr. Signed by Author. First Edition. Soft Cover. Very Good. 4to. `. Hope Vale Mission Board Paperback
1970réf. 752481970. A binder of materials produced by the Awareness Research Foundation an alternative religious group founded in 1962 at a Thanksgiving dinner in Bellevue Washington. A psychologist placed under hypnosis cured his own cancer and through subsequent hypnotic trances revealed his expanding knowledge was a result of "cosmic awareness". The binder contains more than 150 pages of material organized within sections with a table of contents. The material includes an introduction to Awareness: "awareness in each individual which draws upon that portion of himself which is his inner superconscious power." Among the other material in the binder are a membership application an introduction to spiritual healing excerpts from readings in Olympia Washington and Calgary Alberta Canada etc. The executive director of the Foundation was Helen I. Hoag who claimed to have been aboard a spaceship and lived multiple past lives. "I'm Mara Menara professionally" Hoag wrote in the opening of her book My Lives on Atlantis a copy of which is laid into the binder. "My name in this life is Helen I. Hoag. Would you like to know some of my other names" Along with Hoag's book a 1971 letter is laid into the binder recounting Hoag's summer tour which took her to Oklahoma Texas New Mexico Arizona Utah and Colorado. "One of our contacts had already been taken to 'the other side'. We met some wonderful people evaluated several organizations ran several dozen lives for a number of persons in a great many cities and towns. We also saw from a distance some eight or nine space ships and were able to distinguish them from stars by their movement and lights. One of these was the Star Ship of our new Universe Lord which seems to stay over the vicinity of Minturn Colorado near Vail." It appears the organization moved from Washington to North Miami and during the summer months was based in Topeka Kansas. The materials are housed in a green stiff paper binder with metal clasps. unknown

2002réf. 46193Milwaukee WI Destiny Toad Press 2002. Paperback First Edition 2002; First Printing so stated. First Edition 2002; First Printing so stated. Fine in Wraps: binding square and secure; text clean. Virtually 'As New'. NOT a Remainder Book-Club or Ex-Library. 8vo. xiii 417 pages. Academic Press Paperback. The author has the natural skill to express himself by way of a comprehensive communicative language and exceptional ability to present the complex concepts in a simple way. And most importantly the material in the book charts a very coherent model of reality with clearly stated assumptions and logically drawn conclusions. The author does not play with words and the book is not a typical contemporary philosophical exercise in linguistics. If the reader is interested in the models of reality developed by the Eastern philosophy and Western science - then this book would deliver a surprising bonus - it is neither the rewrite nor the reference to all that has been written so far. The model presented in the book is absolutely original and not based on any obvious sources other than author's own powerful thinking process validated by personal experience. The spotting of the difference between the awareness and consciousness the reflection on the reality as the existence's experience of itself are the brightest and most interesting threads of the book. All of these subjects are communicated with the simplicity of the sage. And illustrated with appealing graphics. The reader will appreciate that the author does not forget that he is presenting the model - usually the writers dealing with the Big Questions related to the nature of reality turn into the patronizing mode of the all and the only wise. The author of this material is gloriously free from the self-exaltation and pompousness. The on-line book was composed of two parts. The second one focused on the model of reality as the existence's experience of itself is a must read for everybody eager to extend his conceptual horizon and deepen the understanding of his consciousness.
