Summary

Few realize that even at the present stage of civilization in this world, there are souls who, like the priests of the ancient temples, walk the earth and watch and guard the sacred fires that burn upon the altar of humanity. Purified ones they are, who have renounced the life of this sphere in order to guard and protect the Flame, that spiritual principle in man, now hidden beneath the ruins of his fallen temple. As we think of the nations that are past, of Greece and Rome and the grandeur that was Egypt’s, we sigh as we recall the story of their fall; and we watch the nations of today, not knowing which will be the next to draw its shroud around itself and join that great ghostly file of peoples that are dead. But everywhere, even in the rise and fall of nations, we see through the haze of materiality, justice; everywhere we see reward, not of man but of the invincible One, the eternal Flame. A great hand reaches out from the unseen and regulates the affairs of man. It reaches out from that great spiritual Flame which nourishes all created things, the never dying fire that burns on the sacred altar of Cosmos—that great fire which is the spirit of God.

    Keto for beginners is an extensive guide to what keto is, the basics of the diet, and how a person can utilize it to reach their health goals. 
    It discusses the basics of the keto diet, which is to take in more fats than carbs and proteins during the day to promote the body entering a stage called ketosis. Ketosis is when the liver runs out of carbs and sugars to convert for energy, so it starts to use fats, instead. In this process, it burns through a person’s stored fat and then focuses on the fat they are consuming as an energy source. 
     The keto diet can help people with a wide array of health issues. Its foremost strength is usually weight loss, though, because that’s why people typically start the diet. By burning through fat stored in the body, the diet can help people lose unwanted weight quickly and safely. It can also improve heart health by reducing the amount of bad fats a person eats and replacing them with healthy fats that are easier for the body to break down and use as fuel. Keto can also help to regulate and improve symptoms in women with polycystic ovary syndrome by creating a better balance of hormones in the body. 
    Eating keto at home is one hurdle but learning how to shop and keep keto at restaurants can be another obstacle for beginners to face. Knowing which foods to focus on can be important to keeping the diet and remaining in ketosis after initially getting the body to switch over. Creating comprehensive shopping lists and strategically planning a trip to the grocery store can help keep people in the right frame of mind to resist temptation. Eating at restaurants requires similar discipline and is discussed in more detail in the second half of this helpful guide.

    Bone broth is just about as elemental as it gets. For centuries all across the world, cultures have been reaping both the flavor and the nutritional benefits of slowly simmered broth. And yet, as with most aspects of our food culture, we’ve wandered far away from one of the most basic and essential ingredients to all of cooking. The convenience of processed and packaged broth in a box has ousted homemade broths to the detriment of our health and taste buds.Now, in The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook, small-batch broth company founders Katherine and Ryan Harvey take the guesswork out of making authentic bone broth at home, providing foolproof recipes for meat, fish, poultry, and vegetable broths—as well as more than 75 inventive ideas for incorporating broth into a wide variety of dishes. From on-the-go beverages like their Coconut and Lime Sipping Broth or Carrot and Orange Smoothie to seasonally inspired soups to hearty mains like Tomatillo-Cilantro Pulled Pork and Fig-Braised Chicken with Spiced Walnuts—the Harveys explain how easy it is to enhance the taste and nutritional value of any meal while also helping you save money and reduce waste.  And through it all, they offer insightful kitchen pointers, ingredient tutorials, and an overview of the myriad and astonishing health benefits of this modern day elixir. Just as real, slow-cooked bone broth is essential to delicious, nourishing food, The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook is essential to any cookbook collection.Advance Praise for The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook“Once considered a professional chef’s secret ingredient, bone broth is now finding its way into kitchens everywhere—to the benefit of our taste buds and our overall health. The Bare Bones Broth Cookbook offers delicious and inventive new ways to use this nourishing ingredient in everyday meals.” —Diane Sanfilippo, New York Times bestselling author of Practical Paleo and The 21-Day Sugar Detox“Elevate your culinary home to luscious new levels by using this well-researched and insightful book, chock full of delicious broth recipes for both meal planning and your morning mug.” —Adam Danforth, James Beard Award–winning butcher and author of Butchering Poultry, Rabbit, Lamb, Goat, and Pork

    Bi-location and Objects...

    I’ve experienced many paranormal events in my life. Most of them having something to do with prophecy. I’m also an Author of numerous books on the paranormal including my book written in 2009 “God Like Powers and Abilities” which was an overview or encyclopedia of different paranormal abilities. 
    This book is about the phenomena of Bi-Location. The stories about individuals bi-locating are the most fascinating, but I’m also including stories of objects which appear and disappear which might have similar underlying causes. 
    These two phenomena seem to be inextricably linked since they both involve teleportation through space and possibly quantum entanglement. (Which is covered in a later chapter) 
    I’ve read about and seen enough evidence, and had enough of my own experiences to believe these abilities are real. 
    However, my experience with bi-location is brand new and outside of the box of my previous experiences. Actually having one of these experiences is what led me to write this book on Bi-Location and the spontaneous appearances of objects.
