Mysteries of the Sacred Universe by Richard L. Thompson
Reviewer: Eva Victoria Tame (North Glastonbury, Montana USA)
Mysteries of the Sacred Universe is a book for lovers of the arcane,
long-forgotten or unknown past history and/or myth. But not only
- as the author is a mathematician with a Ph.D. in theory of probability—he
takes us, the readers, for a breathless ride with a no-nonsense
driver, firmly established and most comfortable in the field of
logic, reason, theretical scientific thinking and sound research.
If this is not enough and we crave the drama and theater of this
vast and baffling universe—be
ready for multiple quaint stories. Like with all mysteries—flying
machines with wooden wings and automatic door openers designed
and built in 6 000 B.C., if not before, might amuse one, startle
another—amaze some? We
have had it all before—no scientific
enigmas here.
The author's mind most acutely yet humbly and
with just the right dose of reverence addresses the timeless universe
and its historical and cyclical repeatability. Short of telling
us how and where the continuity came from—the
reader is elegantly dispatched on a solitary mission of further
research and personal confirmation of the author's detailed findings.
Where is one to turn if not in search of the arcane schools of
the ancient past, as R. Thompson leaves no stone unturned in his
serious and orderly presentation of available data.
If you are an avid seeker for and/or feel at
home in the elusive world of akasha—don't
forget to pack a copy of Mysteries of the Sacred Universe for
your trip, as well as "A Dweller on Two Planets" by
Phylos the Tibetan and E.C.Prophet's "The Lost Years of Jesus"—happy
trails and hold onto your hats, as you will surely need several
. . .

Sorrow Mountain: The Journey of a Tibetan Warrior Nun by Ani
Pachen, et al
Reviewer: Eva Victoria Tame (North Glastonbury, Montana USA)
History does repeat itself
Whether it is the plains of frozen Siberia in the Soviet Union
or green pastures of Oswiecim in Poland, better (or worse for
that matter) known as Aushwitz—history
has been brutally repeating itself in the mountainous hights of
Tibet in the current decades, outplaying itself right in front
of our own opened (or shut) eyes.
This time the Red Chinese yet again dramatize the same vile and
satanic scenario—ruthless homicide,
destruction of an ancient culture of highest value to the humankind,
brutal denial and annihilation of one of the most profound religious
creeds of this planet, and thus prove and warn of their continuing
disregard for all life.
If there is a difference, and an uplifting one,
between the crematoriums of Aushwitz and those exiled who died
in Syberia and that of the Tibetan destruction—the
Tibetans uniquely defy their oppressors in life and death through
their high and most advanced religious beliefs and their practice
thereof.
The warrior nun is the most beautiful example
of this truth - thanks to her sublime spiritual background and
training, as well as a lifelong following of the holy example
of lamas and gurus of her indomitable nation—she
does have the truths of reincarnation and karma not only in her
vocabulary but first of all in the deepest depths of her heart.
Such spiritual aristocracy is supremely prepared
to face satanic oppressors with the legendary Chinese torturous
twist. She has the unique mental and spiritual wherewithal to
be able to suffer, survive and conquer. She has the body, sustained
through her happy childhood on the best diets of the advanced
eastern adepts, and the mind trained to perfection by the Buddhic
practices of her holy faith, to be able to come out of the 21
years of the Communist hell and continue her life and service
to the cause of freedom at the feet of the Dalai Lama in his (and
hers) forced exile in India.
This book is a must reading for all informed
and open-eyed Western readers - those who see the signs of the
times and wish to do something about the probability, if not possibility,
of the Tibetan scenario repeating itself in the West. Beware of
the complacency and comfortability of our times —Ani Pachen,
though raised according to the highest aristocratic lifestyle
of her beloved Tibet —was never spoiled, indulged in or
undisciplined but otherwise supremely prepared to face the challenge.
And she did, victoriously.

The Feel of Silence by Bonnie Poitras Tucker
Reviewer: Eva Victoria Tame (North Glastonbury, Montana USA)
Gratitude, compassion and frustration
I would have never heard of this book if not for a dear friend's
recommendation - whose 15-year old daughter has been deaf since
birth. And I am as profoundly grateful to my friend Anna Marie,
as I am to Bonnie Tucker, the author —for
a lesson in gratitude. compassion and frustration . . .
All of us, the hearing—will
learn of gratitude for the "given" of the sense of hearing.
We will add to our repertoire of our feelings a very special variation
of compassion—for one like
Bonnie—full of zest and energy
in her approach to life—who
definitely does not want pity.
We will learn of the aspects of frustration which
our hearing world may not conceive of. Why not learn of this?
Why not absorb some of the unique feelings which none of us ever
thought of, in the situations none of us ever has found himself/herself?
You, the psychologists, might add to your lists
of therapeutic data - this very intelligent woman's pointers and
leads—how and when to help
the deaf . . .
As the deaf are not really deaf—witness
Beethoven and his most significant output as a composer in the
late years of life, when, after becoming deaf, his hearing switched
inward, into the inner world of sound—after
all we all have an inner ear.
So does Bonnie Tucker and she has proven
it with her astounding life and career as a mom and an attorney.
Hurrah to the victor!

Bushwhacked: Inside Stories of True Conspiracy by Uri Dowbenko
Reviewer: Eva Victoria Tame (North Glastonbury,
Montana USA)
Before The Aquarian Age Cometh . . .
Uri, you have done it again!
His recent bestseller "Bushwacked" might not be a bed-time
story but after all one is better off realizing that Uri Dowbenko
is not some cozy children's book-writer. Conspiracy is Uri's forte
and he has proven yet again that by writing about evil of our
troubled times he can indeed open eyes of his discriminating and
intelligent reader to the sad realities of the day.
Being honest and truth-loving (as he knows and
understands it) is another of Uri's characteristics as a thinker,
researcher, writer and speaker. It takes sheer guts to spell out
what he fills the book with—expose of current false hierarchies
behind the powers that be, Nephilim (see "The Twelfth Planet"
by Z. Sitchin and related writings/recordings by Elizabeth Clare
Prophet, Summit University Press), Illuminati and you name it!
His style is sharp, story-line gripping, factual
contents mind-boggling. Before reading the book kindly consider
my advice: do have a solid meal—light-headedness
will not serve you well. This is the red meat of hard-core information,
not some fluffy literary desert.
Enjoy!

The Biology of Belief by Dr Bruce Lipton has changed the way
many people will think about the so-called hereditary diseases,
their lives being "programmed" by Mom's and Dad's genes,
not to mention aunt Bea's quirky behavior. In a word—he
is a revolutionary of our scientific era. Moreover, as a scientist,
he elegantly abstains from making spiritual statements or, God
forbid - religious indications of what his discoveries might mean
for believers in higher powers, on God, Jesus or any other spiritual
teacher. However, he does say:
"In the end, these cellular insights serve
to emphasize the wisdom of spiritual teachers throughout the ages."
Dr Lipton is not only a researcher par excellence,
but he is wisely reluctant to enter the field of spiritual answers
and "how-to" in his writings. This is not a job of science,
no matter how much he rocks its precepts and how much of his own
scientific career he risks by making these statements.
By not completing the book and telling one how
to unleash the "powers" available—he
offers those who know where to find the answers an opportunity
to do their part. So, here it is.
For millennia the Great White Brotherhood of
the Ascended Masters has offered these spiritual teachings. Examples
of Confucius, Buddha, Jesus and others explain the science of
self-healing and true control over one's four lower bodies (etheric,
mental, emotional and physical), as well as freely offer opportunities
for spiritual attainment here and now—in
the physical body, while anticipating ascension at the end of
the path that leads to this ultimate victory over "sin, disease
and death."
I highly recommend these older than the world
teachings—to start—go
to www.tslpl.org
and try practicing the techniques presented. Beware—there
are no shortcuts to this level of attainment, just as there are
no short-cuts in Dr Lipton's research—if
his partial findings took him 15 years —allow
yourself to be patient—be positive,
believe that one is able to get there, for it is a path of many
incarnations to eventually wave a hand as Jesus did and heal the
leper or raise Lazarus from the dead.
This book (and this website www.tslpl.org)
will rock your world!
May You Win All the Way!

CHRONICLES OF TAO
The Secret Life of a Taoist Master
by Deng Ming Dao
$26.95, paperback. HarperSan Francisco. September 1993.
isbn 0062502190 475 pages This very popular
title was previously published in three separate volumes:
· The Wandering Taoist
· Seven Bamboo Tablets of the Cloudy Satchel
· Gateway to a Vast World
It is the spiritual odyssey of the making of
the Taoist master Kwan Saihung. Born into a wealthy family in
a remote province of China, Kwan defies his parents’ wishes
and enters into the rigorous and mysterious discipline of Taoist
practice. Renamed “Little Butterfly” by his Taoist
masters, he survives the upheaval of the Japanese occupation,
and later the Chinese Revolution, all the while becoming adept
in the Taoist arts. Eventually his inner and outer journey lead
him to America, where he becomes a Golden Gloves boxer and martial
arts instructor.
Part adventure, part parable, Chronicles of Tao
travels through a labyrinth of enigmatic Taoist practice, martial
arts disciplines, and international adventure.
Chronicles of Tao can be a good introduction
to Taoism, one that will help one see Taoism beyond the fairy-tale
images of immortals on cranes.
Just as the stories of Sifu’s training
became an integral part of my learning with him, I believe the
experiences of this extraordinary individual will help people
see how the great breadth of Taoism can be bound into a single,
life-long path. I hope that others, though knowing the difficulties,
will find inspiration to undertake their own spiritual journeys.
. . .
I’ve written the Chronicles of Tao to support
Mr. Kwan and honor his tradition, to show that the antiquity he
so treasures is being perpetuated. The fact this his system is
still alive and vital is not the impossible replication of old
Taoism. Rather, it is the nurturing of a seed from that great
tree.
This book concerns the longtime Taoist community
at Huashan, just east of Xian, which in turn is a bit east of
Lanzhou where Jophiel and Christine have their focus in the etheric.
Huashan consists of 5 peaks, the highest being granitic North
Peak at 2140 meters.
Quotes with page number following are from this book published
by Harper San Francisco in 1993.
1. At each stage (of life) you will experience new knowledge.
It is only by using this knowledge and following uninterruptedly
the turning of your life that you will fulfill your destiny. 79
2. One who works, one who serves cannot set himself above others.
This is important because with humility you will never become
arrogant. No matter how high you climb on the path of knowledge
you will not misuse your powers but instead will help others.
Through work and humility you will know compassion. 80
3. You can never become arrogant and narrow-minded if you perceive
how small your abilities are when contrasted to those of the greatest.
Remember to use your knowledge in the service of others but expect
nothing in return. . . . Burn all your attachments to worldly
goals, purge desire, satisfy the thirst for knowledge . . . The
proper method is to purify one's body, enter into the spiritual
and return to the void. 82
4. Music is the direct link between the soul and the divine....No
one lives without music . . . . Calligraphy is calming and unifying
. . . The painter expresses his appreciation of nature's beauty
but he also absorbs natural beauty through painting. 95-6
5. Only those whose belief in themselves is inadequate must have
some external image upon which to fix their attention. In actuality
heaven & hell are right here on earth—within each of
us. 163
6. There is a saying—"The mind of a holy man is like
a mirror. It neither grasps nor resists. It receives and returns.
It is for this reason that the sage encompasses the world without
hurt." This is something you must strive for. 167
7. You must understand a situation before you act. You must perceive
what is required of you and then fulfill it . . . .Retribution
only exists within the mechanism of consequence . . . Don't strain
your mind. 171-2
8. This is the test of mastery: how do you attain balance? You
must always ask yourself this . . . ."The perfect man's heart
is with all things; but he is not one of them." 210-11
9. "The wise man who seeks the way carries a candle before
him." That candle supposedly is knowledge but it only shows
the way. One still has to walk step by step. 344
10. You have to save yourself . . . Neither life nor realization
comes without effort . . . The mind of one who follows the ancients
is like a gnarled tree. Ugly. No one wants it for wood but it
provides shade. 411

· The Scholar Warrior: The Tao in
Daily Life
