The self-help literature is rife with works that promise to teach us the secret to health, wealth and happiness, which almost always involves the power of positive thinking. These books fail to address the fundamental problem that lies at the core of our dissatisfaction. We don't know what we want. So we bounce from one desire to the next, in search of a better job, an alluring relationship, an investment that will make us rich, or someone who will share her spiritual secrets to happiness with us. From Never Mind to Ever Mind takes a different approach, based on the teachings of A Course in Miracles. We can't find happiness because we don't know where or how to look! Happiness comes from truth and truth resides within. We must first recognize our true identity, which, according to A Course in Miracles, is Spirit. Only when we recognize and remove the obstacles to our true nature-to the presence of love within us, and within all beings-will we know the truth of who we are. From Never Mind to Ever Mind will lead the listener on a journey of undoing, informed by the teaching of A Course in Miracles. It will demonstrate conclusively the false assumptions from which our current sense of self is constructed so that we can gently release them and experience instead the refreshing, cleansing breeze of Spirit blowing into our lives. We don't know what will make us happy, but our true self does. And it will gladly reveal itself and show us the way, quite miraculously, if and when we let it.

If one wants to remain in the moment, what does one do about the mind? Never mind! The mind does what the mind does. It is working and functioning perfectly, doing exactly what it has been designed and programmed to do. So says, Wayne Liquorman, one of the world's premier non-dual Teachers. His teaching hammers away at the basic misconceptions that bring about human suffering -- I could have and should have done it differently. I am flawed. I am the author of my thoughts, feelings and actions. Wayne's teaching points to the divine nature of everything that exists, no matter how hurtful or painful it might be. According to Wayne, everything is the perfect manifestation of the Source and it is in the acceptance of everything that peace is revealed.

The coming of age of three young girls from different backgrounds in Mumbai, a city fraught with communal tensions. When long time friends Binaifer and Louella meet Shalini at Gyan Shakti College, gyan for knowledge and shakti for strength, a true friendship that transcends cultural and religious backgrounds is born. Louella is a Christian and Binaifer, a Parsi. Shalini is from a traditional Hindu family. She's been brought up to believe her parents and autocratic grandma will choose her life partner for her. On the very first day at college her eyes accidentally look into those of a young fellow student's and her heart is lost forever. She knows she must resist as her family won't allow a match with a mere student. But she has two unlikely cupids to contend with. Binaifer (Binny) and Louella (Lou) think Bhagu, the young student, is perfect for Shali. The girls go through four years of college together, facing many challenges on the one hand but also the comfort and reassurance on the other, of growing up in the cultural, political and bewildering mosaic that is Mumbai. The author admits there's a message - that of the curse of communalism (or racism). But first, the book is about the light hearted years of college and true friendship between the girls. This is how it all begins: Dr. Naakwaa of Gyan Shakti College couldn't help smiling to himself as he looked at the sea of eager, animated young faces. They all seemed to speak at once, or so it seemed to an old man like himself, their ceaseless chatter outdone only by sudden bursts of loud laughter. Even as they talked and laughed in their own groups, he saw their eyes covertly watching the others. An air of breathless expectancy hung about them, as if something momentous would sweep them up on a wing and fly them away to an unknown destination. Without exception, they all clamoured to go, even the ones standing at the periphery, hesitant and slightly lost though they appeared to be.

Matthue Roth's inspired and insightful tale of a punk-rock Orthodox Jew who goes to Hollywood to find her place. Don't think for a second that you know Hava or her place in the world. Yes, she's an Orthodox Jew. But that doesn't mean she can't rock out. And yes, she has opinions about everything around her. But her opinions about herself can be twice as harsh. Now Hava's just been asked to be the token Jew on a TV show about a Jewish family, trading one insular community for another. As in Tanuja Desai Hidier's BORN CONFUSED, there is soon a collision of both cultures and desires -- with one headstrong heroine caught in the middle.
