Zen Master Thâich Nhâãat Hòanh's commentary on Nåagåarjuna's Treatise on the Middle Way, one of the most famous Buddhist texts in existence. Nåagåarjuna is a giant in the Buddhist canon, thought to be the greatest Buddhist philosopher after the Buddha. He lived in southern India in the 2nd century CE. Cracking the Walnut contains the text of Nåagåarjuna's Treatise on the Middle Way (Mulamadhyamakakarika), defending the essential premise that all things have the nature of emptiness, they have no self-nature, but are in a constant process of change and interrelationship with one another. Weaving Nåagåarjuna's text with commentary by Thâich Nhâãat Hòanh', taken from talks given at two 3-month-long retreats, helps us bring these teachings into our daily life. They are strong teachings, designed to break through all metaphysical speculation. To a greater or lesser extent, we all have notions and ideas about life. Sometimes our ideas can contribute to the advancement of humanity, but the problem comes when we are caught in our ideas and believe them to be the absolute truth. When people believe that something is the absolute truth, they may be ready to fight, kill, or die for it. This brings about polarization, deep division, and suffering in ourselves, our society, community, and family. This is not the way ahead for humanity. This book helps us let go of our ideas and go in the direction of understanding and compassion.

"I applaud Myra for her effort to foster interest in the Bible because that is also my job at Museum of the Bible." - Harry Hargrave, CEO, Museum of the Bible, Washington, D.C. "Myra's Townhall.com Bible study series explaining the Bible to unfamiliar readers is frequently among the most-read columns on RealClearReligion." - Chandler Lasch, editor, RealClearReligion.org The title "Bible Study For Those Who Don't Read the Bible" explains the book's content and purpose. Myra Kahn Adams, who writes a Sunday Bible study series at Townhall.com - a popular, political news site - was encouraged by readers to compile her lessons into this book. Each "Quick, Compelling Bible Study" stands alone, allowing readers to browse topics of interest. Lessons are equally divided between the Old and New Testaments while emphasizing how the New fulfills the Old. The studies are written from Myra's perspective, born and raised Jewish but with no "faith." Then, at age 20, Christ came to her, and she had no choice but to follow Him. The lessons are geared to those who - like Myra - came of age knowing nothing about the Bible. Myra Kahn Adams is a media producer and conservative political and religious writer with numerous national credits on such sites as The Hill, RealClearPolitics, Townhall and National Review. She is also Executive Director of SignFromGod.org, a ministry dedicated to education about the Shroud of Turin. Myra's religious perspective is Jewish by birth, but she embraced Christ in 1975. Over four decades later, her faith journey encompassing Messianic Judaism, mainline Protestantism, Evangelical Christianity, and Catholicism led to writing a weekly Bible study. A Jewish rabbi named Jesus Christ is the "star" of these Bible studies.

'One of the most powerful books of the year' Daily Mail'Nobody can make the serious funny and the funny serious quite like Ruby.' - Alastair CampbellDear Reader,Checking into a mental clinic wasn't exactly on my radar in 2022. Writing about it wasn't either. But here we are.I spent a lifetime trying to create a 'front' to give everyone the illusion that all is well. It wasn't, and it isn't. Now I look back and I think, 'what the f*ck was that all about?'I began the book trying to find meaning by going on various, life-changing journeys, I ended up in a mental clinic; obviously things didn't work out the way I expected. This is the story of what happened after the mental car crash . . . From then on, the journey had to turn inward. It turns out I wasn't looking for meaning, I was looking for home.I'm not a fiction writer. I can't fake it. I could say I rode into the sunset, but life isn't like that unless you're a cowboy. Truth is I'm not as well as I thought I was.These days, trying to stay sane in a completely chaotic world makes life incredibly difficult. For those readers who are deep in the darkness of mental illness, I hope my book makes you feel less alone.Take care, love,Ruby x---------------------------------------------------------------------'If you buy only one book this year, make it this one.' - Joanna Lumley'A true tour de force.
