"Practical Mysticism" is a collection of talks I gave following readings of key chapters from "The Teachings of Kirpal Singh". Each reading and talk focused on a different aspect of Surat Shabda Meditation: a method of focusing your attention upon and harmonizing it with the Eternal Spiritual Current (e.g., Word, Holy Spirit, Ruach, Kalma and Shabda). In doing so you will: a) lifted above body-consciousness; b) gradually cease to create karma; and, c) experience soul-realization, God-realization and spiritual freedom in this lifetime.

November Keys Inhabitant "If we had known, we would not have sold the club. I admit we succumbed to greed but we did not realise we were putting our heritage at such risk. They did take the team to great heights but the consequences were disastrous." American Gangster "They asked for what they got. Did they seriously think that we were interested in some run down hick football club?" November Keys Inhabitant "Our benevolent buyers turned out to be ruthless. We had never experienced a murder in our village before. Not unless you include Cheryl's cooking." American Gangster "What did you expect? They had something I wanted. Something life changing. Do you think I was going to get it by playing peek a boo?" November Keys Inhabitant "Although we celebrated Harvesting Leaf Day and talked about the creatures in the tree, we did not actually expect to see them." November Keys, a quaint village that was ready to sell its soul to the Devil for hastily promised riches. However, when the Devil buys he expects to collect. A very funny tale of greed, gangsters and things that go bump in the night.

After the Famine examines the recovery in Irish agriculture in the wake of the disastrous potato famine of the 1840s, and presents an annual agricultural output series for Ireland from 1850 to 1914. Michael Turner’s detailed study is in three parts: he analyses the changing structure of agriculture in terms of land use and peasant occupancy; he presents estimates of the annual value of Irish output between 1850 and 1914; and he assesses Irish agricultural performance in terms of several measures of productivity. These analyses are placed in the context of British and European agricultural development, and suggest that, contrary to prevailing orthodoxies, landlords rather than tenants were the main beneficiaries in the period leading up to the land reforms. After the Famine is an important contribution to an extremely controversial area of Irish social and economic history.
