With the planet increasingly threatened with catastrophe and perhaps even collapse, many seekers are looking to past, proven models to create meaningful change in their lives. One such model is Buddhism’s Four Noble Truths: the reality of suffering, the root cause of suffering, the end of suffering, and the path to the end of suffering. This fresh, timely book taps and modifies that ancient wisdom to address the pressing environmental and spiritual crises facing us. In The Four Global Truths, author Darrin Drda contends that as global temperatures rise and natural systems decline, humanity is forced to confront the destructiveness of unfettered material progress and mechanistic thinking. He posits a more enlightened worldview that honors the interdependence of all forms of life and aspects of reality, a concept increasingly see as a practical and compassionate approach to averting disaster. Writing in a warm, open style recalling that of Eckhart Tolle in The New Earth, Drda integrates elements of Western philosophy, transpersonal psychology, deep ecology, modern cosmology, and quantum physics to get at the heart of worldwide ecological suffering. In the process he encourages a responsible and joyful—and ultimately healing—participation in this critical moment in life. About the Imprint: EVOLVER EDITIONS promotes a new counterculture that recognizes humanity's visionary potential and takes tangible, pragmatic steps to realize it. EVOLVER EDITIONS explores the dynamics of personal, collective, and global change from a wide range of perspectives. EVOLVER EDITIONS is an imprint of North Atlantic Books and is produced in collaboration with Evolver, LLC.

This book looks at the many issues men are facing in this current society. It also looks back into the patterns of the past that caused us to be where we are today. There are several key factors listed in the book that explains why males appear to be off track in understanding and achieving their defined roles as men of today. Boys are not being properly trained in order to become healthy and productive males in this new changed society. Where females seem to be improving and flourishing, males appear to be spiraling downward. Men were born to become the natural leaders and to be the heads of the human family, but with the new changes in the laws and customs of the land, men are not quite sure about their current position as it relates to the new female positions. The law is on the side of equality and equal access, but that is not what men were accustomed to over all the previous years. Males must adjust to this new female model and find their own sense of purpose and fulfillment.

For several years now the world as we know it had completely changed. This was because of the Covid 19 virus. With this in mind, Brian Jameson and his family had held back on taking a holiday abroad for quite a few years. B.J as he was known to all his friends, decided with his twenty-fifth wedding anniversary just around the corner, he would surprise his wife Shelia and book an all-inclusive ten-day holiday to the Canary Island of Tenerife. For B.J and Shelia, this will be the holiday of a lifetime and a chance for some fun in the sun and a nice bit of romance. And the icing on the cake was, this was the first time they were going on holiday without their now two grown-up girls. What B.J and the world weren't prepared for happened after only one day and night into the Jamesons' idyllic holiday. In short, Tenerife became an absolute killing field, and mysteriously, the majority of the murders were committed by tourists. It turned out Tenerife was just a testing ground. Soon another country would become the target of bizarre weather events that pushed the boundaries of the laws of physics and even crossed into the paranormal realm. Out of the ashes of the catastrophe that not only destroyed B.J's but everyone's lives who were on the island Tenerife, an odd alliance was also formed. More bizarrely, this alliance was between B.J, a physics lecturer, a gangland boss, a spiritualist, and various government departments from around the world. For B.J and his team, they knew the clock was ticking. Globally, bodies were stacking up and soon without intervention, this unknown force would be unstoppable.
