ENLIGHTENED DUALITY
ISBN: 978-1-935387-02-2 This book of essays presents the essential teachings of the Western Baul spiritual master Lee Lozowick, with special emphasis on what he has named “Enlightened Duality.” This dynamic spiritual principle suggests that one can combine a firmly-rooted and integrated awareness of the nondual nature of reality (“all is One”), with a lively, conscious relationship to the “duality” (or play of opposites) that characterizes our everyday lives. “Provides a rich and nuanced picture of a real teacher and how he lives in the real (dualistic) world.” —Robert Frager, Ph.D., founder, Institute for Transpersonal Psychology |
WHO WE ARE
ISBN: 978-1-935387-03-9 This book explains who we are and what we’re supposed to be doing here. Smith builds a dynamic and entertaining case for gaining selfunderstanding (and ultimately self-mastery) through the repetition of the Name of God, silently and with attention, as an antidote to our individual suffering. Remembering our true relationship to life and to God, she says, results from saying the Name of God without ceasing during “the dishwashing and cardriving moments of our everyday lives.” This compilation of short vignettes is linked together within important subject areas of spiritual practice. Several hundred of them make the book useful as a “thought for the day” reference, much like the Course in Miracles. |
LOVE IS THE WINE
ISBN: 978-1-935387-04-6 An intoxicating mix of essays to satisfy the spiritual thirst of those with long experience in Islam, as well as those encountering Sufism and the meaning of spiritual love for the first time.

SELF OBSERVATION: THE AWAKENING OF CONSCIENCE
ISBN: 978-1-890772-92-5 This book is an in-depth examination of the much needed process of “self”-study known as self observation. Only when we “Know Thyself” through self observation practice, says the author, are we capable of being present to life with genuine conscience. The methods presented here are capable of restoring an individual’s ability to pay attention to a fully functional and powerful tool for success in life and relationships. No other book on the market examines this practice in such detail. There are hundreds of books on self-help and meditation, but almost none on self-study via self-observation, and none with the depth of analysis, wealth of explication, and richness of experience which this book offers. |
WOMEN HEALING WOMEN
ISBN: 978-1-890772-88-8 Women Healing Women recounts the true story of MAHER, a remarkable project and center for battered women and children located near Pune, India. Founded in 1997, the project has provided refuge to more than 1250 women, half of whom might otherwise have been murdered, committed suicide, or starved to death. Maher is an interfaith community that honors all religions and strongly repudiates caste distinctions—making it a rare beacon shining new hope upon some of the gravest problems in India and around the world. |
FATHER & SON
ISBN: 978-1-890772-84-0 The author summarizes this book by calling it “a contemporary spiritual epic on the magic and mystery of the traditional Guru-devotee relationship.” Father and Son chronicles the twenty-six years (1976-2001) during which Lee Lozowick visited with and participated in the life and work of his Master, Yogi Ramsuratkumar, the beggar saint of Tiruvannamalai, South India. It also traces the development of Lee Lozowick’s growing community and work with students and devotees in the U.S. and Europe. Fedorschak interviewed Lee Lozowick extensively, and catalogues his answers to scores of questions about this unique and transformational relationship. |

THE REVOLUTION FROM WITHIN by J. Krishnamurti
Philosophy Includes a 180-minute DVD of Krishnamurti delivering 3 lectures. “There must be a revolution in our thinking,” declares the author, J. Krishnamurti (1895-1986), who remains one of the greatest philosophers and teachers of modern times. In this series of lectures, given in the U.S. and various cities throughout the world in the 1950s, he again confronts the habitual, projection-making mind, which fails to see what is while it absorbs itself in belief and illusion. Topics covered in these essays include: the process of change at all levels; the development of discipline; quieting the mind; self-awareness; and freedom from slavery to mind. While we humans are constantly making superficial modifications of our circumstances, such gestures never lead to a radical transformation characterized by clarity, lack of prejudice, spontaneity, genuine peace and happiness. People would rather line up behind some leader, or a particular religious teaching, following the dictates of some outside authority, than to think for themselves, Krishnamurti explains. Sadly, “most of our existence is spent in that way—trying to live up to something, trying to bring about a change in our attitude, to change according to the pattern which we have projected as an ideal, as a belief.” Only by rigorous self-observation and self-questioning is there any hope that humankind will overcome its blindness and self-obsession enough to bring about an end of violence, war and other misery on this beleaguered planet. |
