    In "Shambhala" Roerich has recorded the way of his journey through Central Asia and Tibet in the terms of spirit. It is a record of legends, of parables, of notes--the very substance of which the larger reality is composed, and all revealing different facets of the theme of Shambhala. In this book--as in his other books, "Altai-Himalaya" and "Heart of Asia," one realizes that R...

  • Simple Pleasures
    Brenda Eldridge
    The almost inescapable presence of TV advertising and social media in our lives means we are being constantly bombarded by information. News can be about devastation by natural forces, or the unspeakable atrocities of man’s inhumanity to his fellow beings. We are exposed to the appalling behaviour of so-called world leaders and wonder why our young people find it so hard to bel...

  • Sounds & Silences
    Brenda Eldridge
    Vivid memories prompted by hearing a few stray notes playing sent me wandering through my very rich life to renew my love of particular pieces of music and songs. When I started writing poems, I recognised that, for me, music is like ekphrastic poetry. A composer responds to something and in turn there is my response to the composer. From my own experiences, I was reminded how ...

Rovelli took my understanding of time to pieces from a physics perspective and put it back together again from a philosophical one. I’ve been aware for years of those famous words of Descartes - ’I think, therefore I am.’ Rovelli is sayin...

    As a child, I drove my mother to distraction with my never-ending stream of ’Whys?’ I knew I had reached the end of her patience when she answered with ’Why? Because.’ My stream of questions has never run dry, rather I have learned over long years to accept that most things have only a temporary answer because more and new information and understanding will appear as I read and...

  • Tangled Roots
    Brenda Eldridge
    One of the important things I learned when my poetry was first published was that, no matter how much time and effort I put into ensuring the poems were in what I thought was the right order, my readers would more likely randomly select a piece that caught their attention. It is no different when putting together a selection of poems from several volumes except that when Jude A...
