La palabra de DiosHola: Gracias por el interés en leer mi libro. Se basa en una serie de hechos reales que han ocurrido en mi vida. Las cosas que he encontrado, con las que he lidiado y que he sufrido. Lo más importante es que escribí este libro para revelar verdades tal como las entiendo y como me fueron reveladas. Por ejemplo, las cosas que hacemos en la vida, cómo vivimos e interactuamos con los demás, se basan en nuestro conocimiento de lo que está bien y lo que está mal.

In October 1863, the Union Army of the Cumberland was besieged in Chattanooga, all but surrounded by familiar opponents: the Confederate Army of Tennessee. The Federals were surviving by the narrowest of margins, thanks only to a trickle of supplies painstakingly hauled over the sketchiest of mountain roads. Soon, even those quarter-rations would not suffice. Disaster was in the offing.

The Battle of New Market in the Shenandoah Valley suffers from no lack of drama, interest, or importance. The ramifications of the May 1864 engagement, which involved only 10,000 troops, were substantial. Previous studies, however, focused on the Confederate side of the story. David Powell’s Union Command Failure in the Shenandoah: Major General Franz Sigel and the War in the Valley of Virginia, May 1864 provides the balance that has so long been needed.

La budeidad, la iluminación o el despertar significan lo mismo, y se alcanzan cuando uno llega a la frecuencia o al estado de paz y calma en su mente, en su corazón, en su cuerpo y en su espíritu. Es justo el punto en el que uno consigue olvidarse de sí mismo, acceder a la nada y atravesarla para encontrarse en el todo. Allí se fusiona con la luz del amor incondicional.

Escuchar a Suzanne forma parte de esa llamada de luz, de esa avanzadilla angélica que pretende traer desde las estrellas esa sed de justicia, esa necesidad de colmar nuestra existencia con un nuevo paradigma que pasa por la generosidad, por la sencillez, por valores que tienen que ver con una vida nueva, mejor, más amorosa y profunda.

Nos dice que tan importante o más que elegir alimentos saludables es combinarlos adecuadamente.

La budeidad, la iluminación o el despertar significan lo mismo, y se alcanzan cuando uno llega a la frecuencia o al estado de paz y calma en su mente, en su corazón, en su cuerpo y en su espíritu.
