Prayer & Meditation 2005
If you are one of those who called to purchase the 2004 Prayer & Meditation Calendar after we reviewed it last year, you will be delighted to know that Swami Amar Jyoti's followers have produced a second incredible work of spiritual art to inspire you through 2005.
This new Prayer & Meditation Calendar opens with a simple statement by the Swami that begins “Just call God in simple remembrance, like a child remembers the mother and father… Like a hitchhiker looking for a ride….”
If you are one of those who called to purchase the 2004 Prayer & Meditation Calendar after we reviewed it last year, you will be delighted to know that Swami Amar Jyoti's followers have produced a second incredible work of spiritual art to inspire you through 2005.
This new Prayer & Meditation Calendar opens with a simple statement by the Swami that begins “Just call God in simple remembrance, like a child remembers the mother and father… Like a hitchhiker looking for a ride….”
And the simple wisdom continues, its presentation an elegant communication to the soul. I look forward to 31 days of blessing in January, feasting my eyes on the stunning vision of a Turkish dancer in trance—”…My true nature is joy. Let it be so….”
And on and on it goes, from one month to the next—images of prayer and meditation from around the world, with inspirational messages from Swami Amar Jyoti. This beautiful calendar softens the edges of the days and brings solace and celebration to the heart. I look at its pages and weep, not tears of sadness or emotion but the tears that come when God reaches out and brushes my face with His/Her fingers.
The 2004 Calendar won an award for its visionary appeal from the Coalition of Visionary Resources and one in the “best nonprofit retail” category from the Calendar Marketing Assn. Surely this new one will do at least as well!
Immortal Light, Swami Amar Jyoti's “biography in his own words,” is also available for purchase by phone or on the web site.

Hope Heals
All of his life, Carlsbad resident Bill Hansen had been athletic, healthy and successful. Then one day in June 1997, at age 68, his luck ran out as his hand began to shake violently, uncontrollably. The symptoms worsened, and he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease.
Today, however. Hansen is jubilant. “I'm dancing again,” he says with complete confidence. In Hope Heals, Hansen shares how the spirit, mind and body can work together to relieve the symptoms of this debilitating disease.
Telling him that the disease was incurable and would eventually kill him, his doctors prescribed conventional treatments that offered only short-term relief and no promise at all. Unable to walk with any confidence and barely able to turn over in bed, he immersed himself in discovering his own spiritual wholeness. After reading hundreds of books, he began studying the work of Dr. Deepak Chopra, Dr. Wayne Dyer, Dr. Candace Pert, Donald Epstein, and others.
“At some point,” he writes, “as I began having more faith in my own powers (spiritually, mentally, and physically), I also began experimenting with a resource I had completely dismissed—my own company, MJB Global.”
He began experimenting with a time-released oral spray of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, human growth hormone, and other natural elements, and developed remedies he calls Parkimin sprays, which contain, among other things, Co-enzyme Q-10, vitamins C, E, D. B6, B1, B3, B12, L-Dopa (an amino acid that converts into dopamine), and GABA (a potent message-altering neurotransmitter). His own regimen has included these sprays, the conventional drug Sinamet, and other natural products available on the market, bolstered by prayer, thought management, and his formula for hope: absolute belief + expectation + desire.
Hansen's company is hard at work developing formulas for ALS, MS, Alzheimer's disease, and other related syndromes. Hansen does not claim to have found a cure, but others have reported 90% of their symptoms relieved with his regimen.
Having lived with a victim of Parkinson's disease for a number of years, I feel a deep appreciation for what it would have meant to him to be “dancin' again.” If someone in your life is suffering from a debilitating disease, I recommend Hope Heals as an invaluable resource that could give them their life back for the rest of their years. — Chiwah
