Opening to Omnilateralism After a century of western-inspired multi-lateralism, its much criticised 75-years old stronghold, the UN, needs a new narrative: omni-lateralism. The right vehicle is omnibus - for and by all -, firstly, to widen the way for input of more ideas and good practices of non-Western origin, and secondly, to include non-state actors as legitimate stakeholders in global governance. Some trends already signal an opening towards omnilateralism: enhancing global governance in the COP by adding Eastern understanding of cycles in nature to protect the environment (e.g. in circular economies) and a wider appreciation of 'holism' beyond the rather linear individualistic thinking of Western societies; also accountable groups of civil society - more trusted than officials driven by narrow national interest - increasingly enrich deliberations about climate change and other global problems that need global solutions. These require East-West and North-South cooperation as currently obvious in the urgent cross-border exchanges among experts to combat the pandemic and save lives and livelihood worldwide. Globalisation has elevated millions out of poverty. However, narrow-minded politicians still claim national 'sovereignty' and parochial interests against global solutions for the common good while the Westphalian 'nation' is becoming a historic aberration. Almost all governments nowadays claim democracy, but respect for its principles is falling. Democracy must adapt to each level of governance, from local, national, regional to global. More direct democracy may suit the directly informed local stage. The higher the stage and the wider the impact, the more expertise and responsibility with all stakeholders is needed to reach the common global good, i.e. omnilaterally.

The age-long misconceived idea that Christianity is just one of the other religions has, unfortunately, done more harm than good in preventing millions and millions of people all over the world from embracing the truth about Jesus. The 'Cfaith Explorers', which is a short for the 'Christian faith explorers,' is written out of a genuine desire for people who would like to explore what the Christian faith is all about. It provides, in a most practical, chronological, and dramatic way, how God's revelation and dealings with humanity culminated in the birth of the Messiah, Jesus Christ the Saviour of the whole world. It is the truth about Jesus Christ that brings people to the life-changing relationship with the living God, not religion.

Amongst all the overwhelming darkness in this world, I found the universal counter of light for all of it in the soul of one person. He is Shaykh Muhammad Adil Ar-Rabbani, master of the path to the one and only Creator. To sit in his presence and hear only a few words, his light pierced my entire existence. I lost myself completely, becoming weightless with peace. He knows me better than I know myself. If I ever forget him I forget also my hope and my light in this world. He is the sun for my earth. All I can hope is to be his follower on the path to Allah, even though I am so weak. Following him is the only thing that keeps me alive in this world, and rescues me from all darkness. With him I feel cleaned and pure, born new into the world over and over. From the teachings of him and his father Shaykh Nazim, I spent many years in contemplation. I became inspired with many quotes; words whispered by the depths of my heart. From them I hope you feel a small piece of light that my shaykh gave to me.

And poetry, after all, it is a bridge between people's hearts. Then, walk on this bridge and connect our desires, kind people!

Inspiration for this book came at work one day when I noticed the children using an excessive amount of paper. I tried discussing the preciousness of paper to the children, explaining that they come from trees. This led on to a big conversation about deforestation and climate change, however the children found this a difficult concept to grasp. I went home that day feeling a bit defeated, and after researching for resources to help teach the topic, I decided to take matters into my own hands. Meet Oonga, an Orangutan in the Borneo rainforest who just loves to eat, sleep and play in her favourite tree.

Until one day, Oonga hears some strange noises, goes to investigate and sees that her rainforest that she calls home will change forever. Will anyone save the Borneo rainforest?
We humans are sparks of divinity in time. With imagination and intuition, we can sense the eternity of our participation in the oneness of consciousness. We are all interconnected and interrelated. Fr. Patrick Mooney, who communicates with God through nature, explores those connections. Dismissing sensational proofs for the presence of an all-embracive Creator, he argues God is in our midst. We only need to open the door of our hearts to find Him. This book seeks to answer questions such as: Has technology advanced too far for our own good? Why is human living such a holy and sacred thing? Why are so many people led astray by atheism? Is the coronavirus pandemic the work of humans or the work of God?All life is holy and sacred because it is governed by one supreme consciousness. The serenity and peace that subhuman species proclaim in abundance can be found by the human species when we hammer it out through our connection to the natural world. Discover the consciousness of our spirituality and a new paradigm of living to work toward a brighter future with the wisdom in The Spiritual Impoverishment of Western Civilization.
nyat of Owl Of Pines is the 5th book of poetry by Saad Ali. It's the first installment in Ali's trilogy of Owl Of Pines. This book is a homage to the nyat i.e. emptiness which is the creator, destroyer, proliferator, and container of existence itself. On this occasion, the vers libres, prose poems, and ekphrases are born out of the interactions and integrations of the elements and forces-natural, human, and non-human-that live between the spaces; spaces, where everything exists i.e. nature, human beings and beasts alike; spaces that we take for granted and perceive to be invisible. Invariably, this book is a homage to the three distinct forms of the literary art i.e. vers libre, prose poem, and ekphrasis. Ali's trademark tools i.e. contemplation and satire adopt the respective forms to reflect upon the multifaceted human condition in the contemporary human society, and the intricacies and niceties of existence itself. As always, the book is an open invitation to everyone to observe such a contemplation at the individual and collective level, too.
