    <![CDATA[In Yoga and the Path of the Urban Mystic, Darren Main re-explores the time-tested practice and philosophy of yoga. By using modern examples from more than a decade of experience with this ancient practice, he brings the principles of yoga into clear focus and makes them user-friendly for yogis living in the postmodern era. <p>Just as the physical practice of Hatha yoga needed to be adapted for a modern western lifestyle before it could catch on, the psychological and spiritual principles of yoga need some reinterpretation as well. These techniques for self-realization were employed by people living cloistered and solitary lives, and can seem quite distant from our postmodern urban lifestyles. Darren Main believes that an integration of these tools with our cosmopolitan, urban lives is very possible. Yoga and the Path of the Urban Mystic offers an unstuffy interpretation of this ancient practice and a fresh look at how these timeless principles can help us find peace in our world.</p>]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;DIV&gt;Homosexuals and their friends, family, and supporters wishing to engage in meaningful and heartfelt discussions with conservative Christians will appreciate this resource of facts and inspirational essays, as will Christians striving to be compassionate and tolerant. By confronting one of this generation's most volatile social issues with civility and respect, the book shifts the emphasis away from political arguments toward gently changing religious attitudes, utilizing methods such as daily spiritual practices and figurative Bible study. Fully supported by biblical references and rounded out by recommendations for further reading and helpful websites, the extensively researched discussions on display make for the perfect tool to promote profound healing and reconciliation between two communities who often misunderstand one another.&lt;/DIV&gt;]]>
