The authors bring into the life of consciousness some of the denizens of that domain we call the Human Imagination. Through the tools of our minds & Ôimaginality' they have glimpsed the inhabitants of that domain known as hyperspace, subspace, or the astral realm; & they have presented us with their remarkable portraits. And while the illustrations presented here are not meant to be construed as great art, their primitivism & lack of visual sophistication is a measure of their uncontrived sincerity. The beings in this book lie far from us in actual time-space & are hard to see, but their destinies & ours are intertwined, & they bear critical messages for all inhabitants of the Earth.

While ports are traditionally considered national infrastructure sites that connect states to global markets, special economic zones and past free ports are portrayed as threats to national sovereignty. This book calls these narratives into question as it explores the history of planning Mumbai’s ports and free zones during periods of global and regional transition from the British Raj, to national independence, to economic liberalization. The book opens with a study of an unsuccessful plan hatched by merchants in 1833 to make Bombay a free port to deal with an emerging British India and the advent of free trade. The book ends with how India’s current special economic zones and emphasis on port expansion are part of broader goals to reposition India in transregional Asian trade, to connect Mumbai with northern India, and to enact local plans for a global city that threaten the very port that first connected Mumbai to the world. To understand the functionality of these port and zone projects beyond typical policy prescriptions, this book proposes portals of globalization as a spatial format that fosters processes of reterritorialization.

She shares the techniques that she has learned from her human and etheric teachers that readers can use on themselves and others. How is it that miracles happen? Is spontaneous healing really possible? Why is it that some illnesses don’t show up in standard or even specialized medical testing, yet are very real in their effects? Can someone be “cosmically sick” with no apparent physical cause? How do the people and places around us affect us in our everyday lives?
