Namaste: Divine Gratitude for Mother Love. Namaste Inspiration, #1

On Armistice Day in 1918, the singing of birds was heard joyfully as the guns of war were silenced.  Many a mother celebrated their personal anguish with the compassionate knowledge that other mothers could rest knowing their sons to be safe.  The writings you will find waiting for you in this book offer thoughts and insights to the life and love of our collective mothers.  Two weeks after his mother's death, Liu Ma Di embarked upon an ancient rite of mourning that would continue for three years.  He entered a Buddhist temple in the remote mountains of central Taiwan, and followed a reclusive life filled with meditation, service, tranquility, and reflection on the theme of this book: Mother. This book is meant to be of use, to be a companion, a soul friend.
It is a book of awakenings.  As we stare into the abyss and despair of our time this book helps to reveal how to live a life brimming with joy. As we confront each of the obstacles of joy-from fear, stress, and anger to grief, illness, and death--this book provides in poetic form the foundation for lasting happiness by looking at the challenges faced in life.? The question may be timeless, but the answer has urgent significance.? The world needs joy and compassion more than ever before.  This book is your soul's reminder of how powerful you are, and of how much you already know!  If you're reading this and feeling unsure of the answers, then this book is a great place to start with a generous dose of vulnerability illuminating a striking dance through the seemingly divergent worlds of professionalism, shamanism, motherhood, and life. This book is the first in the Namaste Inspiration series of poetry volumes, which shares the memories and hopes of Liu Ma Di for compassion, joy, and the realization that a better life is possible.
