  Spiritual Wisdom - The Divine...

  Spirituality is the essence of human existence, a journey beyond the physical world into the depths of the soul. It is not confined to religious doctrines but is instead a personal experience that connects an individual to a higher reality. At its core, spirituality is about seeking truth, understanding the purpose of life, and attaining inner peace. Some find this connection through meditation and prayer, while others experience it in nature, art, or acts of kindness. Regardless of the path taken, spirituality fosters a sense of belonging to something greater than oneself. 
  The relationship between the mind and spirit is fundamental to spiritual growth. Thoughts shape perception, and perception influences reality. A mind cluttered with negativity and distractions struggles to grasp deeper truths, while a mind that is calm and focused becomes a gateway to higher awareness. This is why many spiritual traditions emphasize practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and contemplation. These practices clear the noise of daily life and create space for divine insight. In this state of clarity, individuals often experience a profound sense of connection with the universe, realizing that they are not separate from it but an integral part of its vast and mysterious existence. 
  Awakening to higher consciousness is a transformative process. It often begins with an inner calling—an unshakable feeling that there is more to life than material success and worldly pleasures. This realization can emerge through deep reflection, personal struggles, or even spontaneous moments of enlightenment. As one embarks on the path of self-discovery, old beliefs and conditioned patterns begin to dissolve, making way for a more expansive understanding of life. True spiritual awakening is not about accumulating knowledge but about experiencing a shift in perception—one that transcends fear, attachment, and limitation.

  The Monsters We Make - Murder...

  A riveting work of true crime that tells the strange story of criminal profiling from Victorian times to our own. 
    
  Criminal profiling—the delicate art of collecting and deciphering the psychological “fingerprints” of the monsters among us—holds an almost mythological status in pop culture. But what exactly is it, does it work, and why is the American public so entranced by it? What do we gain, and endanger, from studying why people commit murder? In The Monsters We Make, author Rachel Corbett explores how criminal profiling became one of society’s most seductive and quixotic undertakings through five significant moments in its history. 
    
  Corbett follows Arthur Conan Doyle through the London alleyways where Jack the Ripper butchered his victims, depicts the tailgate outside of Ted Bundy’s execution, and visits the remote Montana cabin where Ted Kaczynski assembled his antiestablishment bombs. Along the way emerge the people who studied and unraveled these cases. We meet self-taught psychologist Henry Murray, who profiled Adolf Hitler at the request of the U.S. government and later profiled his own students—including the future Unabomber—by subjecting them to cruel humiliation experiments. We also meet the prominent Yale psychiatrist Dorothy Lewis, who ended up testifying that Bundy was too sick to stand trial. Finally, Corbett takes the story into our own time, explaining the rise of modern “predictive policing” policies through a study of one Florida family that the analytics targeted—to devastating effects. 
    
  With narrative intrigue and deft research, Corbett delves deep into the mythology and reality of criminal profilers, revealing how thin the line can be separating those who do harm and those who claim to stop it. 
    
  “Corbett [is] a gifted storyteller … A highly readable, endlessly revealing primer on the homicidal mind.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)

  There’s an entire generation of South African women who ought to read this book.’ – Sara-Jayne King, author of Killing Karoline 
    
  ‘Ougat is masterfully written – raw, unpretentious, unsettling. Shana Fife captures all the darkness from her body, psyche and life with fearless honesty and transparency.’ – Frazer Barry, award-winning theatre practitioner, writer and musician 
  By the time Shana Fife is 25 she has two kids from different fathers. To the Coloured people she grew up around, she is a jintoe, a jezebel, jas, a woman with mileage on the pussy. She is alone, she has no job and, as she is constantly reminded by her community, she is pretty much worthless and unloveable. How did she become this woman, the epitome of everything she was conditioned to strive not to be? 
  Unsettlingly honest and brutally blunt, Ougat is Shana Fife’s story of survival: of surviving the social conditioning of her Cape Flats upbringing, of surviving sexual violence and depression and of ultimately escaping a cycle of abuse. 
  A powerful, fresh and disarming new voice – Shana’s writing is like nothing you’ve read before.

  Operation Mockingbird: The...

  Freedom of the press isn’t just a fundamental right in America but a key part of the democratic process. When the United States secured its independence against Britain in the War of Independence in 1783, there was no certainty about what the new country would look like in terms of national governance. In 1787, delegates from the various states convened in Philadelphia to draft a constitution that would define this. 
  Freedom of the press became one of the core principles of democracy in the United States. People could only place their votes in an informed way if the press was free to provide information about politicians and their actions. Politicians must also know that their actions were accountable through a press that informed voters honestly and accurately. 
  Up to the 1960s, most Americans were confident they had access to a truly free press, but then series of revelations emerged that suggested the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) had been subverting journalists in the US and elsewhere through the use of bribery, blackmail, and covert operations. By the late 1970s, this alleged CIA plan had a name: Operation Mockingbird.  
  Many people were understandably horrified at the notion that the federal government had attempted to operate counter to the First Amendment through one of its intelligence agencies, and Operation Mockingbird was widely discussed. These debates continue to the present day, including whether there actually was a covert CIA operation named Mockingbird, whether the operation truly sought to subvert the press in the US and elsewhere, and whether the operation really ended by 1976, as the CIA claimed. As such, nearly 50 years later, Operation Mockingbird remains a controversial topic.
