THE INNER ASCENT
John Noyce >
Throughout history and in many cultures, humans have looked to the Divine. Just as the Pharaohs of ancient Egypt visualised themselves ascending the steps of the pyramids, so later civilisations imagined the use of stairways, ladders, gates, rooms and other representations of an ascent to the Divine.

REALIZED SAINTS
Yogi Mahajan >
The realized saints of India were ordinary people like you and me. They were humble seekers who accumulated much karma, wading through the brunt and banes of mundane life. They were not particularly favoured by fate. Mostly unlettered, they were weavers, potters, peasants, merchants, butchers.
