It's Christmas Eve and Santa is on his yearly journey. But the night sky is so foggy that even Rudolph's nose cannot light the way. Stuck in a barn to keep shelter, Santa and the reindeer don't know how they are going to finish their mission when a small voice pipes up. At first frightened by this different creature, Santa accepts an offer to help complete his travels. Barry the Christmas Bat is a holiday tale about not being afraid of someone who is different, intended for children of all ages and all religions.

Handreiking om gelukkig te zijn zonder daarbij afhankelijk te zijn van de waardering, aandacht en liefde van anderen.

Ik wil dat je van me houdt. Ik wil dat je mijn vrienden aardig vindt. Ik wil weten wat je denkt. Ik wil dat je me kust. Ik wil dat je me geeft wat ik nodig heb. Ik wil dat je uit jezelf weet wat ik nodig heb. Ik wil, ik wil, ik wil… Wij willen zo veel en meestal wenden wij ons tot onze geliefde, want hij of zij kan alles regelen, moet alles regelen, vinden wij. Maar als onze geliefde niet voldoet aan onze verwachtingen, dan zijn frustratie, weerzin, wanhoop ons deel. Om ervoor te zorgen dat we toch krijgen wat we willen gaan we dan de gekste dingen doen. Alles hebben we over voor liefde, voor goedkeuring, voor waardering. Als u Ik heb je liefde nodig, is dat waar? leest, leert Byron Katie je hoe je prettiger en gelukkiger kunt leven, maar zij zal geen spaan heel laten van je zorgvuldig opgebouwde romantisch ideaal (Boekerij).

In Dream Yoga and the Practice of Natural Light , Chögyal Namkhai Norbu gives instructions for developing clarity within the sleep and dream states. He goes beyond the practices of lucid dreaming that have been popularized in the West by presenting methods for guiding dream states that are part of a broader system for enhancing self-awareness called Dzogchen . In this tradition, the development of lucidity in the dream state is understood in the context of generating greater awareness for the ultimate purpose of attaining liberation.This revised and expanded edition includes additional material from a profound and personal Dzogchen book, which Chögyal Namkhai Norbu wrote over many years. This material deepens the first edition's emphasis on specific exercises to develop awareness within the dream and sleep states. Also included in this book is a text written by Mipham, the nineteenth-century master of Dzogchen, which offers additional insights into this extraordinary form of meditation and awareness.

Each of the over 50 midrashim sit next to its corresponding biblical text so that readers can compare them, along with commentary on the times and insights of the Rabbis who wrote each midrash. Readers are given guidance for answering “What does this text mean to me?”
