The selections contained in this volume were made by Richard Kik. The original edition Vom Licht in uns was published by Verlag J.F. Steinkopf, Stuhgart. It contains sayings of things highly spiritual nature as well as a description of the life of Richard Kik. One such selection is "The beginning of all spiritual life is fearless belief in truth and its open confession." Albert Schweitzer (14 January 1875 - 4 September 1965) was a German-French theologian, musician, philosopher, and physician. He was born in Kaysersberg in the province of Elsass-Lothringen (Alsace-Lorraine), at the time in the German Empire. Schweitzer challenged both the secular view of Jesus as depicted by historical-critical methodology current at his time in certain academic circles, as well the traditional Christian view, depicting a Jesus Christ who expected and predicted the imminent end of the world. He received the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize in 1953 for his philosophy of "Reverence for Life" expressed in many ways, but most famously in founding and sustaining the Albert Schweitzer Hospital in Lambar n , now in Gabon, west central Africa (then French Equatorial Africa). As a music scholar and organist, he studied the music of German composer Johann Sebastian Bach and influenced the Organ reform movement (Orgelbewegung). Schweitzer's passionate quest was to discover a universal ethical philosophy, anchored in a universal reality, and make it directly available to all of humanity. This is reflected in some of his sayings, such as: "Until he extends his circle of compassion to include all living things, man will not himself find peace." "I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know: the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve."Binding Type: Hardcover

Excellent little book
Format: Paperback
Excellent little book, with some of Patanjali's original text in Sanskrit along with a translation. I read a little bit every day. Great insights. i have no idea what the critic of this book is talking about. $6.95 for this book is a great deal, and I have absolutely no ties to the printers or sellers of this item.

Merits the Five-Star Ratings
Format: Paperback
Barney “Scout” Mann and his wife “Frodo” host many prospective Pacific Crest Trail thru-hikers, at their home, and shuttle them to the trail to start their trek. Scout is a Triple Crowner having hiked the Pacific Crest, Continental Divide and Appalachian Trails and has been very active as a volunteer, serving as a board member and in various capacities for several trail organizations. This eminence translates into a great number of five-star reviews: yet, this account merits them.
Journeys North is about the author’s PCT thru-hike in 2005. It predates “Wild” and the resultant explosion in the trail’s popularity. The book focuses on the Mann’s and several hikers, who move north, in their proximity. There is considerable background and detail given about these characters, which enhances the readers appreciation of their trip. This balances with sufficient description about the trail and the hike making Journeys North a captivating and unique read among trail narratives. In the final chapters, the trekkers are buffeted and challenged by early season blizzards. Forced out of the snowbound high mountains, Frodo, Scout and their group improvise a low land route to complete their walk.
With numerous of characters, the bouncing around and referencing of prior information can be confusing to the reader. There’s some heartwarming tales. The author describes an anonymous benefactor who provides two out-of-funds youngsters a considerable amount of money allowing them to continue towards Canada. The reader doesn’t learn whether the pair completes their journey; but that was a truly generous act, Barney.
Journeys North transcends the trail in its portrayal of the human condition and the adversity and challenges that we confront in life. The book validates the camaraderie and caring that develops among hikers and the positive effect the PCT can have on changing lives. Well done.
