runs deeper than money or where it goes. Chain stores and online sellers are here to stay. We dont decry that fact. Sometimes we shop at their sites ourselves. But there must be a greater balance of support if communities like ours are going to maintain the diversity that makes them attractive. Home is where the heart is, and the heart needs more than a bargain to enrich it.

GivinG You More for Less

As you probably know by now, East West has taken a major leap into the Digital Age by partnering with Google eBooks through a link on our website. Ramping up to provide this added capacity has been a considerable task. But we think youre really going to like the result. And the pricing too. Can we afford to sell ebook downloads for little or no profit? We think the greater risk would be to ignore this new capability and the choices it provides. Ebooks are not for everyone, but their popularity cannot be dismissed. By putting ourselves in the ebook game, it means that you can support East West no matter how and what you like to read. Shopping online for printed books can be done on our website too. When you cant be with us in person, just follow the link on our homepage to search and find the ones you want to buy. As with our ebooks, you can order all kinds of fiction and nonfiction titles, not merely the books we carry at East West. Do you get our weekly email updates? If not, you could be missing out on our frequent in-store sales and special added events. Give us a call, and well put you on the list. Were committed to serving you better than ever before. Respectfully, we ask you again: Just think of East West first.

Dear Friends,
Theres always something special about a favorite place to shop. Maybe its the quality of service, the selection of things to buy, the atmosphere that welcomes you, or probably a generous measure of these and more. What happens, though, when these favorite stores lose a lot of business because it is quicker to shop online or maybe somewhere that trades on discount pricing? Clearly, they struggle to survive. And many dont. Locally, since 2008, the list of bookstore casualties has included some of our own brothers and sisters: Sacred Path, San Jose Bookshop, Inner Journey and Gateways. From San Francisco southward, East West is the last of its kind: a beacon of higher consciousness, where inspiration strikes a deeper chord. Like other favorite stores with a certain uniqueness, East West is independently owned. We appreciate your visits, and we want our friendship to grow. For many months weve been making a simple request: When you have a book or a gift to buy, think of East West first. We know youll be pleased with what you find.

Paramhansa Yogananda, the great Indian avatar, brought the art and science of Yoga to the West in the 1920s, teaching the foundational unity of all true religions. It is our purpose at East West to further this ideal.

Nayaswami Kriyananda, the foremost living disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda and founder of Ananda & East West Bookstore, is the author of The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita, The New Path and other spiritual classics.

A LittLe food for thouGht

The next two years are likely to have a crucial effect on our local business climate. As mega-stores add to their market share, and as corporate mergers eliminate competition, we lose local flavor. These changes may appear subtle, but they are not. If current trends persist, the outlook for small business in our community could be catastrophic. No doubt you have read the statistics about why it makes sense to support your local, independent merchants. But the reason

After writing her bestselling Women, Food and God, Geneen Roth lost her entire life savings in a Bernie Madoff scandal, forcing her to examine her spending habits and beliefs about money. The way we eat is the way we spend, she points out. She found herself swinging between binge shopping and financial self-deprivation, gaining less satisfaction the more she spent, and equating money with love, success and happiness. Applying the same tools she used to overcome overeating, Roth transformed her relationship with money and discovered the true value of life.

As an Army Special Forces Major, David Morehouse was trained to be a psychic spy using remote viewingthe ability to see across time and space. Remote viewing was created as a means of gathering information, he says, but it has proven to be much more. Through detailed stepby-step instructions, Morehouse teaches readers how to use this transformational practice to transcend the physical senses, tap into the collective unconscious and see people, places and things beyond our current space and time. Includes a brainwave entrainment CD.

THE TIME TUNNEL
A Story for All Ages
Crystal Clarity, $ (due in September)

Tom Sturges, a father of three boys, knew he was in trouble when his eldest son went to bed a child and woke up an adolescent. With a newly minted preteenage smart aleck on his hands, he needed a guide for raising children that would make them wonderful people without changing their unique gifts and identities. This book is a compilation of the parenting techniques that he discovered or stumbled upon that worked, such as never being embarrassed by what teenagers do, punishing with kindness, and the five phrases that can never be unsaid, once said. Funny, insightful, and full of hard-won advice.

In 2008 a lightning storm ignited a massive wildfire that blazed through California, targeting the oldest Zen Buddhist monastery in the United States. Using only a single unpaved road in and out, the Tassajara Zen Mountain Center, located near Big Sur, is so remote that escape is nearly impossible in times of disaster. Residents and firefighters were ordered to evacuate, but at the last minute five senior monks turned back and risked their lives to save the monastery.

While exploring in Rumania, Donny and Bobby discover a ruined laboratory with a mysterious tunnel. Entering it, their bodies shrink. They emerge into a beautiful countryside and meet Hansel, whose father invented the time tunnel. Hansel shows the boys how to encase themselves in time-light spheres, and the trio travel through time, from ancient Greece and Egypt and forward into a surprising future, gaining valuable lessons about history, human behavior, and themselves.
