Mahmoud Iranpanah (the writer of many adventure books in Farsi-English Languages), is writing Rostam's Adventures. Col. Mahmoud Iranpanah makes the characters of this story come alive with aliens and UFOs in two globes inside the universe just for you, readers.

Opening Pandora's Box is an essay inspired by the horrible deeds of terrorists on 9/11 2001. It is a personal investigation into the nature of the world's great religions, their positive and negative traits. The author's conclusion is that of the three or four most influential spiritual geniuses of the last four thousand years would include Krishna, Moses, Buddha, and Jesus-those that had spiritually developed adherents, especially in meditation, urged their students to become like them, rather than simply follow a belief system. These teachers gave their students, at whatever level of development, exercises to lessen and evaporate their ego consciousness and eventually to become "one" with the universe or God-or any word you wish to apply. I think Jesus did teach this also, but early Christianity turned away from it to become an "institution" and to seek converts. Unquestionably, an institution can do great spiritual good in regards to outreach, but mystical developments must come from a one-on-one teacher basis. The farther away from this "oneness" goal, the more likely to be mistaken about it since the larger the ego, the more self-oriented it will be and the more likely it will be wrong-not only about the goal itself, but also about the process. Being simply a student, I am talking about these things as a student and urge my readers to investigate all this for themselves.Anthony JosephThe Wisdom of KleothThese materials were channeled and received over a period of two and a half years. The main spirit guide giving them is known as Kleoth. In his graciousness, he has consented to send us the information presented completely from his exalted dimension. This book is a sample of work in progress taken from the beginning section of his transmissions.

Residual Therapy differs from other therapy only in focus. The focus of this approach is on things left over. I have discovered that we often move on from issues in our lives before we finish resolving them. Solving the major and presenting problems is essential but it is also vital to deal with the "left overs." I have seen couples who had dealt with their presenting problems only to later fail because they had not dealt with the residue of those problems. An example would be drug addicts who stop using drugs after counseling only to fall back into those habits later. Often that is because they have not dealt with the underlying problems that led to abuse in the first place. It is my hope that the material in this book will clarify the need to deal with hidden residue and enable people to live healthier and more balanced lives. That can only happen if we deal with residue. This may require extra time and effort in helping clients uncover and resolve residue. This extra time required has forced me to rethink my desire to reduce counseling time to a minimum. A rapid conclusion may not be the most helpful if we miss dealing with residue. I am exercising more caution in that area of my counseling. I want to uncover the issues that block permanent progress for clients.
