Advanced Teachings on Spiritual Awakening, Freedom, and the Mystery of Consciousness In the early 1990s, A.H. Almaas had a realization he was not expecting—even after years of deep inner awakenings. "I thought it was a personal experience, not a teaching," he reflects. Now, after two decades of further investigation, A.H. Almaas has concluded that the time is right to share "the view of totality"—what he considers one of the most advanced aspects of his teaching. A Bold New Vision of Enlightenment We often think of enlightenment as the ultimate destination on the spiritual journey—a final endpoint for delusion and suffering where it all makes perfect sense. But as A.H. Almaas teaches, "the moment we see that the journey has no end, everything changes." With Endless Enlightenment, you are invited to join the renowned author and creator of the Diamond Approach® for a six-session program on the view of totality. In this seven-hour exploration with Sounds True founder Tami Simon, A.H. Almaas describes for the first time on audio a perspective that expands our ability to appreciate the value of each and every spiritual path and practice—and may revolutionize your own. "We as a human race are just at the beginning," explains A.H. Almaas. "We’ve opened the door, but there’s a universe of possible experience ahead." Join him in discovering how "realization begets realization," with Endless Enlightenment. Highlights include: • How the view of totality changes our approach to spiritual practice • The many faces of true nature • The importance of individual consciousness and the mystery of emptiness • Freedom from, freedom of, freedom to, and freedom itself • A non-hierarchical view of spiritual traditions and paths • Seven hours of radical insights and new teachings with A.H. Almaas—including questions for personal inquiry after each session

A. Townsend Peterson, one of the pioneers of ecological niche modeling, presents a synthesis that illuminates new and more effective infectious disease mapping methods. His work - the culmination of twelve years of refinement - breaks new ground by integrating biogeographic and ecological factors with spatial models. Aimed at seasoned epidemiologists and public health experts, this interdisciplinary book explains the conceptual and technical underpinnings of Peterson's approach while simultaneously describing the potentially enormous benefits of his modeling method. Peterson treats disease transmission areas for what they are - distributions of species. The book argues that complex, fragmented, and highly irregular disease patterns can only be understood when underlying environmental drivers are considered. The result is an elegant modeling approach that challenges static spatial models and provides a framework for recasting disease mapping. Anyone working in the area of disease transmission, particularly those employing predictive maps, will find Peterson's book both inspiring and indispensable.
