Sofie vokser op med fraskilte forældre, der rykker fra hjem til hjem og fra sindstilstand til sindstilstand.Sofies mor, Tina, bor i villakvarterer og i herskabslejligheder. Hun er et livsklogt forbillede, men hun forskanser sig også i dagevis på sit soveværelse for nedrullede gardiner.Sofies far, Frank, bygger svævebane, laver køkkenhave og kører 160 km i timen. Han flytter fra beskidte kældre til lånte sommerhuse, fester med sig selv og forsvinder om natten. Følelsen af hjemløshed vokser i Sofie, og hun forsøger med tiden at definere sit eget liv og finde et hjem. Men ingen steder får hun fred fra Franks strøm af uønskede opdateringer, der vidner om misbrug og psykoser.10 år efter at Sofie har slået hånden af Frank, ser hun ham igen på forsiden af en kulørt avis. Og så starter endnu et kapitel i historien om Frank, der slutter i Retten i Helsingør.

Fulfill Your Potential Through Meditation"I have been a citizen of two worlds, nourished from the great traditions of Western culture in my early youth, and sustained by the ancient and sacred traditions of the East, where I spent the greater part of my life.It is hoped that this book will be a bridge between these two worlds, not as a manual or a mere source of information, but an incentive for others to cross the bridge in both directions."-Lama Govinda, from the book's PrefaceFrom acclaimed interpreter of Tibetan mysticism Lama Anagarika Govinda comes Creative Meditation and Multi-Dimensional Consciousness, the essential guide to traditional Buddhist meditative philosophy.

Throughout the work he explores Buddhist spirituality and the basic elements of Vajrayana Meditation through methodical analogies. Specific topics and practices covered include breathing, prana, mandalas, tantric experiences, samadhi, dharma, imagination, psychic centers, mindfulness, space-time reality, enlightened awareness, and free will.This classic guide, famous for "taking the mystery out of meditation," preserves the mystical appeal and beauty of personal discovery; it is an inspirational jewel for all meditation practitioners, yoga students, and those seeking spiritual knowledge. This book is also available from Echo Point Books as a paperback (ISBN 1648373305).

Decoding the I Ching: Lama Govinda's Timeless InsightsA must-read for anyone interested in learning about the I Ching, The Inner Structure of the I Ching is unique in its exploration of this ancient work. Influential interpreter of Tibetan mysticism Lama Anagarika Govinda shares insights that evolved over decades from his travels, observations, and personal practice as he sought to understand this timeless and ancient Chinese text. Govinda believed that the trigrams and hexagrams of the I Ching provide wisdom that is essential in cultivating compassion, self-mastery, and a life in harmony with nature and in service to others. He introduces original concepts of the eight symbols of transformation and the correspondence of the five elements of wood, fire, earth, iron, and water with the Chinese zodiac. He goes on to explain the Eight Houses of Hexagrams in both the traditional order of King Wen and the abstract "movement in curves," all thoroughly illustrated with over 150 color diagrams.He also discusses in depth the philosophical underpinnings of the text, exploring its roots in Taoist and Confucian thought. John Blofeld's introductory discourse firmly places the philosophical underpinnings of the I Ching in the context of Taoist principles and Tibetan Buddhism-a relationship the author further elaborates in his concluding remarks. The I Ching is both fascinating and puzzling, especially to the uninitiated, but regardless of your familiarity with this prized text, you are in good hands with Lama Govinda: he has introduced generations to Tibetan Buddhism, Buddhist meditation, and Taoism through his books and commentary. This guide is a foundational resource for scholars, students, and practitioners of Eastern philosophy. This book is also available from Echo Point Books as a paperback (ISBN 1648374050).

The Way Of The White Clouds

The Way Of The White Clouds

'It tells of terrible journeys, of men masked against the sun (riding through ethereal regions with their feet frozen), of welcoming fog-girt monasteries lit by butter lamps at the journey's end' New Statesman The Way of the White Clouds is the remarkable narrative of a pilgrimage which could not be made today. Lama Anagarika Govinda was among the last to journey through Tibet before its invasion by the Chinese. His unique account is not only a spectacular and gloriously poetic story of exploration and discovery, it is also invaluable for its sensitive and clearly presented interpretation of the Tibetan tradition.'Why is it that the fate of Tibet has found such a deep echo in the world? There can only be one answer: Tibet has become the symbol of all that present-day humanity is longing for' Lama Anagarika Govinda
