Based on the life experience of Benjamin Lane and written as an autobiographical novel, He'enalu Days tells the spiritual journey of Dennis Hill, a wild-child surfer growing up in Kai Town, Honolulu, in the early 1980's, who walks into a life of drugs and parties. As a boy, Dennis falls in love with the ocean and the sport of surfing and feels that to he'enalu (surf or slide across a breaking wave) sets him free like nothing else can. Twenty years later, Dennis realizes his brokenness as a human being and cries out to God to save him. A war over his soul emerges, and Dennis discovers the physical realm we all live in reflects a coexisting spiritual realm that we cannot see, a spiritual realm that wields the power to overwhelm the physical realm in an instant. When no person can save him or ease his pain, Dennis discovers that Jesus Christ - the way and the truth and the life - is the only one who can set him free, and that eternity is too long to be wrong. These are his new He'enalu Days.

In his brief career Jimi Hendrix transformed rock music, established himself as the greatest guitarist of all time, and left a rich legacy of original songs and dazzling recordings. In Jimi Hendrix and Philosophy, philosophers come to terms with the experience and the phenomenon of Hendrix, uncovering some surprising implications of Hendrix’s life and work. Much of this book is concerned with the restless polarities and dualities that reveal themselves through Hendrix. His compositions display a preoccupation with the tragic nature of life, moving between the polarities of Schopenhauer’s The World as Will and Idea and and Platonic philosophy. Jimi’s “guitar-being” has surprising implications for the philosophical relation between mind and body. There is in Hendrix a duality between innovation and tradition—innovation in psychedelic sonic adventures and tradition in the form of the blues. Hendrix exemplifies the interaction of technology and art, as seen in his use of feedback, varieties of noise, and backwards reel-to-reel playing. How much of the Hendrix phenomenon can be explained by the technological situation and how much by his own unique genius? Everyone knows about Hendrix’s use of feedback in the narrow sense, but feedback can also be viewed as a general phenomenon that arises in complex dynamical systems and emerges at the border of chaos and order. Although critics associate Hendrix’s lifestyle and early death with self-destructive patterns of the Sixties, his actual thoughts as revealed in his songs and writings show a more positive and constructive concern with authentic freedom. What did Hendrix mean when he spoke of “the realities” of conflict conveyed in “Machine Gun”? What is a “Voodoo Chile”? When does noise become music? These and other questions are addressed in Jimi Hendrix and Philosophy. Hendrix’s undying popularity following his death in 1970 has led to the release over the years of a large body of material which Hendrix would never have chosen to make public, raising serious questions about what we owe to the dead and how we view the construction of the artist’s public persona.

A wondrous and fascinating account of a parallel life of Conscious Evolution and Kundalini Activation directly from the streets of New York City! If you are attracted to the ideas of spirituality and raising the level of consciousness of humanity as a whole, you will want to peer into the inner life of Rich Mollura. In the early 1980’s, Rich was initiated into a surprising transformational journey by the relentless force of Kundalini Energy and Conscious Evolution. This powerful and ancient mystery spontaneously and intelligently re-engineered Rich’s Being. Little by little over 40 years, he came to appreciate an unexpected and ingenious dimension of Life which revealed beauty, mystery, and profundity. The strangest part of this tale is that while these transformations occurred, he was simultaneously living an ordinary parallel life as a leading salesman to NYC businesses. Unknown to virtually anyone, he was waking up every morning at 3 AM to refine psychological insights and perform esoteric practices that he would later use to negotiate the movements inside his body as he worked to interconnect and comprehend this spectacular unfolding. Imagine sitting in business meetings with jolts of bio-electricity firing down limbs and electrifying your brain! All while appearing normal and consistent with the world without notice. Rich invites us into a world that was private but explosive as he tells how everyone from Carl Sagan and Walt Whitman to the Wizard of Oz and Eckhart Tolle (among others), came to become intellectual companions along the way. Rich shares how he used his accumulated wisdom to weather everyday challenges that included the loss of his beloved mother to a Gliobastoma, to how he and his wife Nancy addressed their son Richard’s Crohn’s and Celiac condition, and other life challenges that threaten us all. Rich details how life’s higher wisdom can come to inspire and support our journey through higher energies of the body, nature, and ancient wisdom. This book will help you to: • Embrace life as your teacher and partner • Learn new and inventive teachings that could inspire your unique growth • Open to how spider webs and butterflies can come to enlighten you • Realize the profound potential of the energies of the human body

A search for traces of the voice before the phonograph, reconstructing a series of ancient soundscapes from Aristotle to Augustine. Long before the invention of musical notation, and long before that of the phonograph, the written word was unrivaled as a medium of the human voice. In The Ancient Phonograph, Shane Butler searches for traces of voices before Edison, reconstructing a series of ancient soundscapes from Aristotle to Augustine. Here the real voices of tragic actors, ambitious orators, and singing emperors blend with the imagined voices of lovesick nymphs, tormented heroes, and angry gods. The resonant world we encounter in ancient sources is at first unfamiliar, populated by texts that speak and sing, often with no clear difference between the two. But Butler discovers a commonality that invites a deeper understanding of why voices mattered then and why they have mattered since. With later examples that range from Mozart to Jimi Hendrix, Butler offers an ambitious attempt to rethink the voice—as an anatomical presence, a conceptual category, and a source of pleasure and wonder. He carefully and critically assesses the strengths and limits of recent theoretical approaches to the voice by Adriana Cavarero and Mladen Dolar and makes a rich and provocative range of ancient material available for the first time. The Ancient Phonograph will appeal not only to classicists and to voice theorists but to anyone with an interest in the verbal arts—literature, oratory, song—and the nature of aesthetic experience.

“The diversity of voices and songs reminds us that the home front and the battlefront are always connected and that music and war are deeply intertwined.” —Heather Marie Stur, author of 21 Days to Baghdad For a Kentucky rifleman who spent his tour trudging through Vietnam’s Central Highlands, it was Nancy Sinatra’s “These Boots Are Made for Walkin’.” For a black marine distraught over the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., it was Aretha Franklin’s “Chain of Fools.” And for countless other Vietnam vets, it was “I Feel Like I’m Fixin’ to Die” or the song that gives this book its title. In We Gotta Get Out of This Place, Doug Bradley and Craig Werner place popular music at the heart of the American experience in Vietnam. They explore how and why U.S. troops turned to music as a way of connecting to each other and the World back home and of coping with the complexities of the war they had been sent to fight. They also demonstrate that music was important for every group of Vietnam veterans—black and white, Latino and Native American, men and women, officers and “grunts”—whose personal reflections drive the book’s narrative. Many of the voices are those of ordinary soldiers, airmen, seamen, and marines. But there are also “solo” pieces by veterans whose writings have shaped our understanding of the war—Karl Marlantes, Alfredo Vea, Yusef Komunyakaa, Bill Ehrhart, Arthur Flowers—as well as songwriters and performers whose music influenced soldiers’ lives, including Eric Burdon, James Brown, Bruce Springsteen, Country Joe McDonald, and John Fogerty. Together their testimony taps into memories—individual and cultural—that capture a central if often overlooked component of the American war in Vietnam.
