Once upon a time there was a king and a queen, who were very sorry that they had no children, so sorry that it cannot be told. At last, however, the Queen had a daughter. There was a very fine christening; and the Princess had for her godmothers all the fairies they could find in the whole kingdom (there were seven of them), so that every one of them might confer a gift upon her, as was the custom of fairies in those days. By this means the Princess had all the perfections imaginable.

Once upon a time, long, long ago, there were two brothers, the one rich and the other poor. When Christmas Eve came, the poor one had not a bite in the house, either of meat or bread; so he went to his brother, and begged him, in God’s name, to give him something for Christmas Day. It was by no means the first time that the brother had been forced to give something to him...

Once upon a time, in a large forest, there lived an old woman and three maidens. They were all three beautiful, but the youngest was the fairest. Their hut was quite hidden by trees, and none saw their beauty but the sun by day, and the moon by night, and the eyes of the stars. The old woman kept the girls hard at work, from morning till night, spinning gold flax into yarn, and when one distaff was empty another was given them, so they had no rest...

Sincerely do I hope that the issue of this little book may prove useful in drawing the attention of the public to the mental and physical condition of the unfortunates who form such a large proportion of our prison population.??To our authorities the sad plight of this mass of smitten humanity is well known. Year after year our Prison Commissioners, in presenting their reports, have not failed to impress upon the State the great part physical and mental afflictions play in the production of crime.??So far, the information given by the Prison Commissioners has produced little or no effect; neither have their representations led to any alteration in the treatment of unfortunate individuals whose infirmities are in reality the root cause of their delinquency.??To the official information I add the result of my own prolonged experience. This experience has imbued me with the conviction that the present methods of dealing with suffering humanity are neither wise, just, nor efficacious. I have seen the helplessness of so many that are called criminals that, in writing these pages, I am animated with a keen desire to hasten the day of sensible reform. Surely the day cannot be far distant when the State will take mental and physical infirmities into consideration when it has to deal with its erring children.??Thomas Holmes.?Howard Association,? Devonshire Chambers, Bishopsgate.? ?IS THERE A CRIMINAL TYPE? ??After years of close observation, during which I have formed many friendships with criminals, I can only answer this question in the words that I have answered it before, and say that, physically, I have not found any evidence to show that a criminal type exists. In saying this I know that I shall run counter to the teaching of a good many people, and probably run counter to public opinion. For the criminal class and the criminal type have been written about so largely, and talked about so frequently, that the majority of people have come to the conclusion that our criminals come from a particular order of society, and that the poorest; or that there exists a type of people whose physical appearance gives outward and visible signs that proclaim the inward criminal mind.??I believe both these ideas to be entirely wrong. I was confirmed in my opinion last year when I visited many of the largest prisons in the United States; for I found there, as I have found in England, a complete absence among the prisoners of those physical and facial peculiarities that we are taught to believe differentiate criminals from ordinary citizens.??Speaking on this subject to the American Congress at Washington on October 4, 1910, Sir Evelyn Ruggles-Brise, K.C.B., the esteemed chairman of our Prison Commissioners, made the following statement—??“There is no criminal type. Nothing in the past has so retarded progress as the conviction, deeply rooted and widespread, that the criminal is a class by himself, different from all others, with a tendency to crime, of which certain peculiarities of body are the outward and visible signs.??“This superstition, for such I think it must be called, was, you know, strengthened and encouraged by the findings of the Italian school.

Ce livre retrace mes expériences spirites, vécues depuis 2011 et offre de magnifiques messages de nos guides spirituels. Sans être une méthode, ni un enseignement, il invite à l'écoute de leur guidance et tente de démystifier le spiritisme, loin des clichés et dogmes traditionnels. "Un espoir pour les personnes en recherche spirituelle et dans la souffrance du deuil." Les messages ont été obtenus lors de séances de spiritisme (ouija et channeling) à 4, en compagnie d'une médium ou seul par écriture automatique ou inspirée. Je suis convaincu que le spiritisme est accessible à tous, à condition de se laisser guider par l'amour et le respect et d'observer certaines règles. Attention, ce n’est pas un jeu, mais il et bien moins dangereux que la majorité des activités humaines, contrairement aux idées re?ues, véhiculées par la peur, l'ignorance ou le désir de pouvoir. Nos guides spirituels sont toujours avec nous, près de nous. Ils sont toujours heureux de communiquer avec nous. Ils nous aiment sans jamais nous juger. Ils nous accompagnent, ils nous aident et ils nous le font savoir, pour peu que nous apprenions leur langage, celui du c?ur.

Answers to these and many other questions will be provided to you by the Lord of Love and Compassion, known as the “Great Heart,” in Book 6 of The Teaching of the Heart series.

Cartea prezint? destinele a trei personaje Alfredo, Andrea ?i Fabio. ?Am f?cut-o pentru binele t?u!“, ?Am f?cut-o pentru binele lui!“, formule care se reg?sesc ?n titlul c?r?ii, sunt folosite des ?n via?a real?, ?ns? ascund de multe ori atitudini si fapte reprobabile – minciun?, arogan??, egoism sau am?gire. Acestea sunt ?micile crime“ s?v?r?ite ?n numele iubirii, pe care le red? Gianna Schelotto. Alfredo, protagonistul primei pove?ti, afl? c? a fost adoptat c?nd avea trei ani, dup? ce el ?i fratele lui fuseser? abandona?i de mama lor. Andrea, personajul central din cea de-a doua poveste, este pus de tat?l s?u ?n fa?a unei realit??i nepl?cute. ?n ultima poveste, Fabio, un avocat influent, de aproape ?aizeci de ani, se confrunt? cu perspectiva inevitabilei sale dec?deri dup? ce afl? c? ar putea suferi de Alzheimer. Unii gre?esc prin faptul c? dezv?luie, al?ii gre?esc prin faptul c? ascund: s?ar zice c? situa?ia e f?r? ie?ire. Dar nu faptele individuale sunt cele care produc daune ; ceea ce risc? s? creeze fracturi profunde este ideea c?, de fapt, copiii sunt un fel de prelungire a noastr?, o proprietate exclusiv? de care putem dispune oricum. Orice fapt?, declarat? sau ascuns?, prin care ?ncerc?m s? determin?m persoanele s???i schimbe idei, aspira?ii ?i sentimente este o manipulare, chiar dac? se na?te din dorin?a sincer? de a aduce beneficii s?n?t??ii celuilalt sau de a?i sus?ine bun?starea. ?n rela?iile ?s?n?toase“, schimb?rile ?i dezvoltarea au loc nu fiindc? cel puternic a reu?it s??l conving? pe cel slab, ci numai pentru c? ne?am transformat lu?nd de la cel?lalt ?i d?nd de la sine, ?n mod spontan, experien?e, emo?ii, vise.

Cum definim ?i cum trat?m tulburarea de reglare emo?ional? Emo?iile sunt o parte important? a vie?ii noastre, afect?ndu-ne major ac?iunile, de?i nu ?ntotdeauna suntem con?tien?i de prezen?a lor. Abilitatea de a ?n?elege ?i balansa emo?iile se nume?te reglare emo?ional? sau control emo?ional. De ce este important? reglarea emo?ional?? Pentru c? reprezint? un element esen?ial pe care se sprijin? civiliza?ia uman?. Interac?iunile dintre oameni depind de modul ?n care sim?im ?i ne exprim?m emo?iile. Conceptul de ?tulburare de reglare emo?ional?“ intervine atunci c?nd apar probleme ?n privin?a controlului emo?iilor. De cele mai multe ori, o persoan? care are astfel de probleme ??i va descrie st?rile aleg?nd etichete precum depresiv, anxios, nervos, sup?rat, agitat. Mult mai rar va apela la nararea autentic? a tr?irilor personale, declar?nd c? este instabil, impulsiv, emo?ional, necontrolat, incapabil de a se calma, u?or de frustrat etc. Cartea lui Radu Vrasti prezint? ?ntr-o form? succint? problema tulbur?rii de reglare emo?ional?, a?a cum se prezint? din perspectiva medicinei ?i a psihologiei clinice. ?n plus, aduce informa?ii de ultim? or? despre cum trebuie ?n?eleas?, definit?, diagnosticat? ?i ?tratat?“ at?t medicamentos c?t ?i psihoterapeutic.

Philip and Simon Trenchard lost their parents at the age of seven and eight in a road accident, and were brought up by their beloved grandfather, the eminent archaeologist Sir Lawrence. At his funeral, years later, their world is about to be shattered once again – in fact the entire world as we know it faces an Armageddon of unimaginable evil. In Sir Lawrence’s will, he entrusts to the brothers the terrible secret he uncovered in the Holy Lands – some ancient apparently Biblical scrolls. But these were not the testaments of Mathew, Mark or John but of Judas… “The truth was potentially explosive. We had found the map and instructions to the biggest religious discovery of all time… Not only that, but if the Book of Judas really existed it was prophesised that its unearthing would destroy the pillars upon which the entire Christian religion had grown… It had the power to unlock the devil himself.” The very knowledge of their existence is deadly. Now Sir Lawrence is gone the Vatican is determined to claim the secret that undermines its raison d’être and their hired agents will stop at nothing. Worse still, is the knowledge that the Antichrist’s disciples on earth, The Satanica, have unleashed an assassin of pure, implacable evil leaving hideously mutilated bodies in his wake as he follows the Trenchard brothers on their quest. In a terrifying, nail-biting mission that takes us from leafy Oxfordshire to the Dead Sea; from Greece to the Vatican, the brothers travel the world to save the world – and themselves – from Satan’s ultimate revenge Language English
