A decade before Dan Millman wrote his spiritual classic Way of the Peaceful Warrior, a motorcycle crash ended his Olympic dreams. Some years later, two thugs, one armed with a metal pipe, closed in to attack a young writer named Doug Childers. These two young men had no notion that they would one day meet, become friends, and draw upon their experiences to create a collection of inspiring stories about people whose lives were changed by extraordinary events. Each story in this newly revised volume (formerly titled Divine Interventions) describes a unique journey across a metaphorical bridge to a higher reality. These stirring accounts of the lives of ordinary people as well as iconic figures, past and present, will awaken in readers a renewed faith in the mysterious possibilities hidden in daily life.

Only days after his thirty-sixth wedding anniversary, the author's wife fell ill and passed away. This is the true story of how an ordinary man was awakened from the depths of grief and a broken heart by a series of remarkable spiritual experiences that revealed the key to his personal healing was through the spiritual healing of others. In the course of this spiritual reawakening, he was faced with moments of doubt and tests of faith. As he struggled to try to make sense of his newfound gift of healing and his incredible spiritual experiences, he was met with many inspirations, revelations, and epiphanies about how we can express our spirit-self in the physical world through love, compassion, and healing others. From a purely spiritual perspective, the book explores questions such as the purpose and meaning of life. It includes a simple plan for how we can live a truly spiritual life in or outside of organized religion. The author's soft-spoken, heartfelt style coupled with the wonderful inspirations he shares will touch you in a loving and deeply spiritual way. Join us as we seek to build and cross a bridge between two worlds: this physical world and the world of spirit.

Between Two Worlds is an authoritative commentary on--and powerful reinterpretation of--the founding work of modern philosophy, Descartes's Meditations. Philosophers have tended to read Descartes's seminal work in an occasional way, examining its treatment of individual topics while ignoring other parts of the text. In contrast, John Carriero provides a sustained, systematic reading of the whole text, giving a detailed account of the positions against which Descartes was reacting, and revealing anew the unity, meaning, and originality of the Meditations. Carriero finds in the Meditations a nearly continuous argument against Thomistic Aristotelian ways of thinking about cognition, and shows more clearly than ever before how Descartes bridged the old world of scholasticism and the new one of mechanistic naturalism. Rather than casting Descartes's project primarily in terms of skepticism, knowledge, and certainty, Carriero focuses on fundamental disagreements between Descartes and the scholastics over the nature of understanding, the relation between the senses and the intellect, the nature of the human being, and how and to what extent God is cognized by human beings. Against this background, Carriero shows, Descartes developed his own conceptions of mind, body, and the relation between them, creating a coherent, philosophically rich project in the Meditations and setting the agenda for a century of rationalist metaphysics.
