"The Catcher in Rye" is the ultimate novel for disaffected youth, but it's relevant to all ages. The story is told by Holden Caulfield, a seventeen-year-old dropout who has just been kicked out of his fourth school. Throughout, Holden dissects the "phony" aspects of society, and the "phonies" themselves: the headmaster whose affability depends on the wealth of the parents, his roommate who scores with girls using sickly-sweet affection. Lazy in style, full of slang and swear words, it's a novel whose interest and appeal comes from its observations rather than its plot intrigues (in ... |

Коментари от Гурудев Шри Шри Рави Шанкар. Бащата на йога Патанджали в своите легенадарни сутри е систематизирал цялото познание за йога. Сутрите са кратки стихове или сентенции, които съдържат практическата и философската мъдрост на йога. Сутрите на Патанджали помагат да преодолеем собствените си бариери, изчистват ума ни от погрешните представи и разкриват пред нас един нов хармоничен свят.

Макар и йога сутрите да са древни афоризми, датиращи от хилядолетия, те носят в себе си ... |
