Natural Chi Movement: Accessing the World of the Miraculous
by Tienko Ting
Tienko Ting challenges the Western paradigm of physical wealth with a theory that that calls for activating our chi and finding solace by uniting the physical and spiritual world. Each living being is already endowed with the power of this life force. It is simply up to the individual to learn how to harness their internal power in order to strive toward mental and bodily wellness. The accessibility of this ancient practice is open to anyone. Void of any religious undertones, with no necessary equipment or overbearing masters, the natural practice of chi is medicine to which all people have access.

by John A. Rush
In The Mushroom in Christian Art, author John A. Rush challenges the accepted image and history of early Christianity. Using an artistic motif, Rush follows an expansive stretch of time from 200CE to the present in order to illustrate that Jesus Christ is a personification of the Holy Mushroom, Amanita muscaria. Rush has compiled a compelling argument that shows how this mind-altering substance was used by early Christians in an attempt to expand their religious understanding and reach spiritual solace. Rush’s challenge of mainstream history takes readers on a rarely explored academic path that opens up dozens of new possibilities to the foundation of the West’s most widely practiced religion.
