This book offers a new approach to understanding Buddhist lay and monastic practice by recognizing the crucial role that visual practices played in Indian Buddhism in the early centuries of the Common Era. In the genre of Indian Buddhist narratives known as avadana, most lay religious practice consists not of reading, praying, or meditating, but of visually engaging with certain kinds of objects. The key for understanding the Buddhist conceptualization about the world and the ways it should be navigated is found, in these stories, in ways of seeing and the results of seeing.

This is a summary of the book entitled A Blind Man's Tale. This book depicts what my eyes have seen within my lifetime from the late 1950's until 2019. This book is a story about possible threats that are being placed against our Democracy and it gives a brief synopsis of some of the possible solutions to various problems that we currently face within our Great Nation today. This book is based upon World Leaders from then and until now who have played a key role in the vast history of our Nation and Democracy, which has now found us in a "State of Disarray." We are in a situation knowing that half of these World Leaders appear to have not made the right decisions over the many years, and the ones who did make the right decisions, the Nation does not approve. That's why I base the book on a lot of ideals that are formulated from greenhouse gases to the forest preserves burning, to us starting a Nuclear War with North Korea. So all of this is seen through the persona of how long are we going to keep doing the same old things over and over again, by "kicking the same old can down the road." We appear to keep making the same old mistakes over and over again, with all of these old and outdated laws from centuries long ago. We continue to call ourselves the Number One Nation of the World and yet, every Leader that enters into office continues to set their own private agenda. And it's not even an agenda to help out our country, nor the planet Earth. No one appears to be looking-out for the greater good of this Nation, and it appears to be a continual agenda of the same old business as usual, with "profit-over-people," with both the Middle-Class and the Lower-Income Families left to suffer and pay the costs of it all. I would like for the reader to be able to grasp upon some new ways of thinking, to spread love and peace, immediately deploy steps to save our natural resources and put aside our differences, so that we can work together as one United Front for the preservation of both our planet and mankind. Let's all join together right now before it's too late to save our entire world! May you continue to be an avid reader and change-maker. Thanks for listening!

At the dawn of the twentieth century, Lincoln Steffens, an internationally known and respected political insider, went rogue to work for McClure's Magazine. Credited as the proverbial father of muckraking reporting, Steffens quickly rose to the top of McClure's team of investigative journalists, earning him the attention of many powerful politicians who utilized his knack for tireless probing to battle government corruption and greedy politicians. A mentor of Walter Lippmann, friend of Theodore Roosevelt, and advisor of Woodrow Wilson, Steffens is best known for bringing to light the Mexican Revolution, the 1910 bombing of the Los Angeles Times, and the Versailles peace talks. Now, with print journalism and investigative reporters on the decline, Lincoln Steffens' biography serves as a necessary call to arms for the newspaper industry. Hartshorn's extensive research captures each detail of Steffens' life—from his private letters to friends to his long and colorful career—and delves into the ongoing internal struggle between his personal life and his overpowering devotion to the "cause."

For Robert Fyall, the mystery of God's ways and the appalling evil and suffering in the world are at the heart of Job's significant contribution to the canon of Scripture. This New Studies in Biblical Theology volume offers a holistic reading of Job, with particular reference to its depiction of creation and evil, and finds significant clues to its meaning in the striking imagery it uses.
