This book attempts to describe something indescribable. Something beyond the imagination. Called Nirvana or Enlightenment by other religions. Translated into modern language it could be interpreted as one billion orgasms. In the book there are 112 techniques to reach this thing called Enlightenment. The techniques involve every day things you can do from having sex to walking the dog. See Osho's "Book of Secrets" for explanations of the techniques. <BR/><BR/>www.truenewspaper.blogspot.comTrue Newspaperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04080543424313233175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31412136.post-42824588311142924922008-01-20T09:07:00.000-05:002008-01-20T09:07:00.000-05:00I can totally identify with how you feel about lib...I can totally identify with how you feel about libraries--and I've been in situations like that with the cliquey women-yuck. I haven't been in my hometown library in maybe 10 or 11 years but I still sometimes just think about it, the layout, the smell of it, memories of being there.Camillehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13885265214705764092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31412136.post-4137704429467165112007-12-12T11:41:00.000-05:002007-12-12T11:41:00.000-05:00Hi Carl - I've tried The Man in the High Castle by...Hi Carl - I've tried The Man in the High Castle by Philip K. Dick, Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke, and Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card, among others. These are the three that I remember the most...I can't say that I liked any one of them although I was the most intrigued by Childhood's End. If there are other authors/titles you think might be easier to get into, I am all ears! I keep trying to like sci-fi, but just haven't found the right books yet.Kirstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17789738602297831459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31412136.post-2359279400517924452007-12-05T22:58:00.000-05:002007-12-05T22:58:00.000-05:00Hope you're feeling better now, there is nothing w...Hope you're feeling better now, there is nothing worse than getting sick around the holidays.<BR/><BR/>I am curious as to what science fiction you've tried to read. Certainly there is a great deal of science fiction out there that is very intellectual and can be hard to get into. Is that the kind you've tried to read or have you read any of the sci fi novels that are essentially adventure stories set in a sci fi setting? Just curious.Carl V.
