It also explores Amitabh's later struggles and his ultimate return to glory in this comprehensive and loving retelling of the major events of his life to date. It highlights how news was reported in the eighties in India, and the restrained approach to reporting compared to the desensitized, sensationalist tone news has acquired today. That aspect alone makes for an interesting read.The author, smitten with the charismatic artiste, cut and pasted each article published about the incident into a small, little notebook as it happened.

"With tenderness and with a true poet's eye, Gaetano Aiello brings the streets and parklands and beaches of his native Adelaide to shimmering, sometimes phantasmagorical life. The title poem, 'The Underside of Bark,' is a meditation - gripping, hallucinatory, profound - on Australian and South Australian identity, a true dreaming." - JM Coetzee

The Vietnam War and the act of conscription irrevocably change the lives of four teenage Australians.John Mitchell, a bespectacled bass guitarist from Melbourne with a fatalistic notion of becoming an Anzac like his emotionally fragile father and grandfather before him becomes mates with two very different characters he meets in the army who he would never have otherwise crossed paths with. Trevor "Chubby" Jackson, the apparent heir to an outback West Australian cattle station and Hedley Yangaboora, an Indigenous stockman from the same property.All three are caught up in one particularly debilitating 'friendly fire' incident in Vietnam from which only the least likely character, Hedley, manages to get his post-war life back in order.The fourth character, Frankie Jamieson, is an unrelentingly positive individual who others tend to lean on. She struggles to maintain her studies at Melbourne University while singing in a pop duo with her childhood friend Cindy Fong, granddaughter of a Chinese pear orchardist. Frankie is drawn into the protest movement.The story explores the teenage years of all the characters leading up to the boy's names being drawn from the infamous televised spinning barrel. John and Frankie's independent journeys through the band scene of 60's Melbourne, Hedley's battles with ingrained racism and dislocation and Chub's grappling with the complexities of trying to learn how to run an outback cattle station in the 1967 referendum era when unpaid Indigenous labour came to an end.Frankie's story unfolds in stark parallel contrast with the other characters as they negotiate Infantry training in their very different ways. Through Frankie, the reader experiences the street marches and eventual Police raid on Melbourne Uni's Union Building. She quits the pop duo but not her friend Cindy and becomes a protest singer around the pubs and clubs of 1970's Melbourne. Her love affair with Jack, a draft resister being supported by his union, leads to marriage and eventual tragedy.The incident in Vietnam infuses a dark uncertainty that hangs in the background of the story until the end. Hedley loses his right arm in friendly fire and both John and the reader believe John fired the shot. John keeps this to himself.After the boys are unceremoniously discharged they try to come to terms with what they have been through and grapple with 'normality' again.In later life Frankie meets John and they discover their past band connections. This is no 'senior romance,' more social worker and desperate gutter dweller. Frankie facilitates a reunion of the veterans on Hedley's cattle station. If there is a single hero in this story it is Hedley but he takes his time coming to the forefront. Once there he is unstoppable, an inspirational voice leading through extreme adversity. It is his casual revelation to John at the reunion that puts to rest the lingering mystery from the Vietnam incident and makes a mockery of lost lives.

When he learns of the tragic loss of his brother, Oskar, it is in Rose's arms he feels the most comfort.Rose's coveted position finally brings her to France, where she is confronted by the immense suffering of the soldiers and the fragility of life.

She can no longer deny her love for him and is terrorised by the thought that either of them may die before she tells him.From Australia's sweeping plains to the crowded streets of London and the mud of France's trenches, this is a novel of loyalty, loss and love set in the tumultuous backdrop of the First World War.

Dennis O'Brien is a Mechanical Engineer who was a senior director in an Australian consulting practice with branch offices in various locations around the world. He worked in many of these locations on major projects. While this was happening, he suffered from a rare disease caused by a tumour on the pituitary gland. Like many rare diseases this remained undiagnosed for years and had a major impact on his health. This included extensive time in hospital, a period of major psychosis and the amputation of his leg. The challenges of his profession were a key part in maintaining his enthusiasm despite his illness. This book recalls his experiences from his early years as very much a working-class boy through his education and employment in the engineering profession. In recent times he has taken up a role on the board of the Australian Pituitary Foundation which provides support to sufferers of pituitary conditions, education for medical staff and funds research into the diseases, all of which are rare. Proceeds from the sale of this book will be donated to the Australian Pituitary Foundation.

In this Guidebook, Sophia Ovidne seeks to explain and further expand upon the foundational metaphysical tenets of Book One of the Training Manual for Gods series, which she has channelled from the Ascended Master, Chiron. Yet, Sophia's and Chiron's books are quite different from one another, even while targeting similar topics, with Sophia adding appropriate material taught to her by many Masters over the past decades.This book describes the invisible dimensions that our consciousness can find itself in, and the beings we might discover there, and is laid out in a structured and easy-to-read format.What is the nature of consciousness? How does it operate, both in the human world and the unseen universe beyond? The hidden realms of consciousness are delved into, and that which exists beyond our current understanding of mind and matter. What can our consciousness do there?What is the structure of the universe, and who are its inhabitants such as our soul, the gods, angels, ghosts, aliens? How can we connect with these invisible beings? Where do they live, and what kind of life do they lead? How can our consciousness astral travel to visit these hidden places? Where are Heaven and Hell? What happens when we die? What are the reasons why our life might be ended? Can we reincarnate, and have we had past lives?The main mission for humans at this present time is to evolve our human consciousness into god consciousness and to live as gods. How do we do this? What is expected of us? How can we discover and design our rightful destiny? How can we learn to manifest things and heal like the gods? The magical tools of our consciousness are explained in detail.Our planet, too, is being prepared to shift into a new dimension. What will the future hold for us all, as humans, and when we have wings?This book will bring to light all these secrets and more, and help you through the maze of consciousness and into the amazing unseen universe.

This is the second book in the series, Training Manual for Gods, which has been channelled by Sophia Ovidne from the Ascended Master Chiron who speaks to us from an unseen higher dimension. Our human consciousness is undergoing massive transformation, and all our perceptions of our current world will alter likewise. We are arriving in a new dimension of consciousness and reality, which Chiron terms Second Earth. It is a higher vibrational planet that mirrors our present First Earth, where we will still inhabit our physical forms but where we are learning how to let go of our humanness and ultimately become gods. Chiron describes the events that are moving human consciousness into this new dimension where all will live with god consciousness. Not all humans will make it there. The two Earth dimensions are currently moving away from one another, culminating in a Final Shift that will split them permanently. How will this Final Shift come about, and how can we humans prepare for it? What will happen to those who don't arrive on Second Earth and who choose to stay on First Earth? Divine gods will arrive on Second Earth too, coming down from higher dimensions. They will guide and teach humans-turned-gods how to build a new god society. What will it be like to live on Second Earth, having arrived as a human-turned-god or a divine god? This new world operates with the laws of quantum physics rather than classical physics, so what will we be experiencing? Many humans will arrive on Second Earth with little understanding of what has occurred for them and around them. Chiron explains how to prepare for the transition of their human consciousness in the final years before the Final Shift, and what faces them in the preliminary phase upon their arrival on the higher dimensional Second Earth. Second Earth is a true school for gods, and all will learn about their spirit, soul, Light Body, astral travel, manifestation, the new concept of no time, and all the other strange constructs of living in a higher dimension.

This is the first book in the series, Training Manual for Gods, which has been channelled by Sophia Ovidne from the Ascended Master Chiron who speaks to us from an unseen higher dimension. Chiron describes, with his wonderful wit and imagery, the metaphysics of our universe, and what consciousness really is and how it operates across the various vibrational dimensions that house the continuum of who we really are as our human self, spirit, soul, and god self. Consciousness contains a magnificent toolbox we can use to interact with the unseen universe, tools which act like magic wands to create the life we really desire. Chiron introduces these tools of consciousness, and also describes the invisible worlds that lie beyond our physical brain, in the realms of higher consciousness, and how to connect and communicate with these worlds. Chiron explains how we can change our consciousness and our present world, and answers many of our metaphysical questions about gods, angels, souls, the spirit world, the spiritual path, the evolution of humans and souls, godhood, death, the afterlife, past lives, emotional and mental issues, relationships, the ego and power, manifestation techniques, healing energies, identifying our true mission and keeping on track, astral travel, UFOs, ghosts, ascension, the Underworld, the cosmos, and signs. In these current times, the mission of the gods is to make the unknown known; to make their presence known to humans, to help humans prepare to become gods themselves, and prepare for the coming 'Final Shift' of the Earth into a higher dimension. We humans are being trained by the invisible gods to become just like them so that we may all live harmoniously together in a new god society. We are also preparing for the coming imminent end times where we are facing the final years of our existing Earth and the old ways of humankind. Human consciousnesses will split into two separate dimensions, creating a First Earth for those who have chosen to remain as non-god humans, and a Second Earth for those who have done the work to transform themselves from humans into gods.

It is now over twenty years since I have published my first book on dreams entitled "DREAMS, Pregrams of Tomorrow". I coined the word pregram in order to indicate that I see dreams as programs of the future. It was a radical proposal diametrically opposed to the general perception of dreams at the time. There are glimmers of hope though, that others might begin to recognise this astonishing characteristic of our dreams. While the ancients took this idea for granted, the so called 'Age of Enlightenment' and what followed it, has done much to obliterate this ancient wisdom.These glimmers of hope come from serious investigators, who now distinguish between 'ordinary dreams' and 'psychic dreams'. They have dubbed them 'psychic', thus suggesting that some dreams do seem to be anticipating the future. This is, as I see it, the thin end of the wedge that will eventually widen this recognition ever more. The glimmers of hope are strongest among young people. Thanks to the internet we are afforded a more global perspective of dreams. There are many sites online that grapple with the mysteries of dreams, the last frontier of human exploration. Among these we find many postings of young dreamers, which evidence insights that are less prejudiced than those of older generations. On "Yahoo Dreams", for instance, we come across one or more cases of precognitive dreams on a daily basis. And when such a case is posted, there are usually many other young dreamers who will say: "Yes, it's weird, but it also happens to me!" Most of these young dreamers are always nonplussed when they discover that one of their dreams was able to anticipate an incident ahead of time. It is mainly for these young adventurers that I have written this book. I have done so in order to show them the shortest way into the deepest mystery of our dreams.
