1. Blüten der Unendlichkeit
Day by day, we face life, reacting to what comes our way, making decisions, and seeking to shape our experiences. And then, in an instant, everything changes. Janine Spirig experienced this when she lost her husband twenty years ago due to the murder of a teacher in St. Gallen and found herself alone with three children. "Do not shrink from the darkness, penetrate it, illuminate it," she notes in this book on a winter day. In spring, she writes: "Stumbled in the no, risen in the yes," and the next day: "Perceiving the call of the inaudible between the words, silence." In autumn, during the harvest season, she reflects: "Living into oneself, breathing into oneself, loving into oneself, going into oneself, finding oneself in full abundance." Blossoms of Infinity is a companion throughout the year with a short text for each day, a perpetual calendar that invites daily pauses to reflect on what truly matters in life. "In silence, life is audible" (December 11).
2. Die Kunst des Nicht-Seins
The Art of Non-Being by Master M is a profound guide that explores the connection between individual consciousness and universal spiritual intelligence. This work explains how the entire world and its structures are expressions of an all-encompassing intelligence that is anchored within each of us. The author, Mario Mantese, invites readers to discover the art of eternal non-being by learning to be present in the world while remaining detached from it. This book offers valuable insights for anyone looking to practice mindfulness and meditation, fostering a deeper understanding of one's own being and the spiritual dimension of life. It is an inspiring work for all those seeking inner peace and a more conscious life.
3. Be what you are eternally
The body, perception, thoughts, sensations, dreams, memories, hopes - all of this and more makes up what we consider ourselves to be: a personality with a distinctive face, with edges and corners. But is that really who we are, and is that all? Mario Mantese poses these questions. His answers extend far beyond the familiar. "The sun shines even without the moon, yet the moon would be completely lightless without sunlight. It is the same with essence and the body. Essence, universal consciousness, shines even without the body, but the body does not shine without essence, without universal consciousness. Realize this before you die, and then your existence will be filled with a lovely, carefree lightness, with what you are eternally!" Illuminating insights from the Swiss wisdom teacher in short chapters addressing the great questions.
4. Erwachen
In the midst of our society, yet hardly noticed, a fundamental change is taking place: More and more people are turning away from religions and seeking spiritual experiences elsewhere. Free from myths and outdated notions, Sam Harris discusses the realm we today refer to as spirituality due to a lack of a better term. In a combination of personal narrative and scientific foundations, the American neuroscientist reveals what is available to all of us: awakening beyond religious belief and hope.
“A retrospective of a spiritual seeker, a scientific and philosophical investigation of the self, and a manual for transcendence – Awakening explores the nature of consciousness. The book explains how to meditate, leads to the best psychoactive substances, and warns against power-hungry gurus. This book will upend your fundamental assumptions about everyday perception – and it may change your life.” - Paul Bloom, Professor of Psychology and Cognitive Science at Yale University.
“Awakening is a precise, friendly, clear, and witty book. It points you towards the selflessness that is our true nature.” - Stephen Mitchell, co-author with Byron Katie of Loving What Is.
As a neuroscientist, Sam Harris demonstrates that our ego is an illusion, an intangible construct of our brain activity. And as a meditator with years of experience, he shows us how we can awaken to a more fulfilling life in better connection with everything around us when we leave this illusion behind. - Jerry Coyne, Professor of Biology at the University of Chicago.
Sam Harris is an American neuroscientist and the author of bestsellers such as The End of Faith, Lying, and Letter to a Christian Nation. He lives with his family in Los Angeles.
5. Gelebte Weisheit
Where does wisdom lie, and how do I get there? On the wrong path, if one follows such questions! Mario Mantese illustrates in vividly clear images how close what we seek externally really is. Before our eyes unfolds the interplay of the elements, the eternal cycle of the seasons. Those who immerse themselves in this find peace within and feel secure in the embrace of Mother Earth. "The wise one is deeply aware that what is far away rests close by," writes the author, contemplating the subtle interplay of the forces of life, of which we are as permeated as the world we live in. And: "The wise one is someone who treats all living beings with mindfulness, care, love, and respect. Restraint and humility characterize the wise; in their presence, no noise is made in the silence.".
6. Ein Weg aus den Sorgen
"A Way Out of Worries" by Mario Mantese is a guide that addresses the challenges of life. In concise texts, the author explores how worries arise and what inner processes are necessary to overcome them. Mantese, an experienced teacher of wisdom, does not offer simple solutions but encourages reflection on openness, responsibility, and gratitude. He inspires readers to delve into the deep secrets of human existence, which lie not in knowledge but in the heart. Through his empathetic approach, he conveys that true virtue and inner peace emerge from the recognition of one's own humanity. This book is an invitation to confront one's worries and find a path to inner peace.
7. Im Licht einer grossen Seele
When the student is ready, the master is not far away... For those who are truly ready to flow back, he reveals pure, holy powers that set heaven and earth in motion. Through them, everything transient and entangling is erased, and what was sick is healed, writes Mario Mantese in "Life Never Ends." This slightly revised book, now presented here, was first published many years ago. It contains wondrous, even shocking accounts from people who have come into contact with the light power of Master M. The radiant reality that Master M. embodies has the ability to reveal each individual's spiritual path in life. Thousands have now been touched by the light of a great soul during gatherings with Master M. These extraordinary insights into his universal work give this book a timeless depth.
8. Das Experiment Hingabe
At a young age, Michael A. Singer realizes that there is a voice within him that incessantly comments on events and expresses its opinions without making any real contribution to life. The economics student abandons his academic career and silences the bothersome voice within through yoga and meditation. Precisely because he withdraws from society and rigorously commits to asceticism, he soon reaches a limit of what is spiritually achievable. How to proceed to reach the ultimate goal? The yogi understands that no further discipline will advance him. Only life itself can accomplish that. Michael A. Singer puts aside his own intentions and desires. He says yes to life as it comes to him. Unconditionally. Thus begins the experiment of surrender, an unreserved exploration with unforeseeable consequences.
9. Vor deinen Füssen
He has been practicing listening within since he was a young man in the monastery: contemplation, concentration of the mind on the breath, prayer, union with silence. Today he teaches courses on what he has learned about meditation around the world. In her meditation she connects with the essence of plants and the work of angelic energies. And she trains herself in availability. As a mother of four children she stands in the middle of life, as a therapist she promotes the healing of her clients with the forces that come alive in her. Together, Peter Wild and Andrea Küthe Albrecht explore different paths of spirituality. For this book they visit places of power together, they tell each other about their experiences, listen to each other and write letters to each other. In between they lead to practical exercises. The lively exchange of the two authors is an encouragement to the reader to trust his steps and to courageously take his own path under his feet.
10. Meditation mitten im Leben
Learning about meditation through a book or a course is one thing. Applying the practice of meditation in daily life across all areas is another. That is the true path of meditation.
"If we want our lives to change, we must be willing to live differently," writes American Zen monk Claude AnShin Thomas. Meditation is the tool to initiate such a process and keep it going.
"The point is not how long we sit. It's about starting and then continuing consistently, day by day."
Grounded, accessible, and full of experience – "Meditation in the Midst of Life" is a rich compendium of guidance and encouragement on the spiritual path. 108 short texts for inspiration.
