This book is an informative compendium about everything connected with breeding Haflinger horses. Starting with a detailed introduction to the historic origins of this breed of horse, the 25 thoroughly researched chapters present the most up-to-date knowledge about the breeding history, modern breeding work and current scientific studies. In the historic section, which conveys interesting contemporary insights by means of a wide range of photographs and illustrations, the political and social frameworks for breeding Haflingers are portrayed, and historic stud farms which have largely been forgotten, presented. The middle section of this book then sets out basic knowledge about breeding. The historic and current breeding aims, breed standards and the administrative structure of international Haflinger breeding are presented with the same level of detail as the genealogical structure of the sire and dam lines. Deeper insights are provided by the scientific contributions on the genetics of colour, the structure of the population, Y-chromosonal haplotype analyses and genetic diversity. No publication on Haflingers would be complete if it did not also look at the variety of uses for which this breed can be employed. Three chapters demonstrate impressively that the Haflinger, with its particular performance characteristics, will continue to find a place in the international horse scene in the future. A chapter dedicated to pasturing of the horses explores the highly topical issue, especially in alpine regions, of the tense relationship between ecology and the economy, before an epilogue brings this collective volume to a close.

... or sacred poem as my focus of concentration) I enjoy reading this book at bedtime for inspiration
Format: Paperback
Since I began practicing Passage Meditation (meditating on a prayer or sacred poem as my focus of concentration) I enjoy reading this book at bedtime for inspiration. I find that when certain prayers or poems resonate with me, stanzas from them will come to me during the day. Some of them I memorize quicker than others. I appreciate this book for having so many from so many traditions compiled and translated so beautifully. At the back of the book you can look them up by category, such as prayers for courage, or fear, etc. I am surprised at how many I have memorized, and how much they affect my thoughts throughout the day.

Make your life a work of art
Format: Kindle
These passages drawn from all the world's great spiritual traditions coupled with enthusiastic sustained practice of Eknath Easwaran s 8point program can provide depth and meaning to one's life and a greater understanding of what the check it is we are all doing here on this beautiful yet long suffering planet. Don't be thrown off by the quiet delivery or the religious stuff -- it's always common sense experience based and never heavy handed. You'll get as much out of it as you put into it. The people that have used this form of meditation and are associated w the blue mountain center are some of the most extraordinary humble people you will ever meet. Good luck.

A Beautiful Resource
Format: Kindle
Eknath Easwaran was a wonderful teacher who taught passage meditation, memorizing and repeating to oneself sacred writings. These writings are drawn from many of the great religious traditions. In the last few years of my aging mother's life, she and I spent many hours reading these passages together, meditating on them, and discussing them. We had our favorites and when one of us was travelling, we would agree to meditate on one or two particular ones at the same time wherever we were. At her death, I recited many of these passages to her to bring her peace. She died more than a decade ago but these passages still evoke that beautiful time in my mind and I am grateful for this beautiful resource of passages. I find that everything in this book is a source of peace when I read and meditation on it.
