	MY PIECE OF PEACE MY PIECE OF PEACE FACEBOOK PAGE This is my story of my journey through life to finding appreciation, contentment and peace through the teachings and Knowledge of Prem Rawat. In 1972, after returning to the UK from an overland trip to India, friends in Norwich told me about their teacher, then known as "Guru Maharaj Ji", who was just 14 at the time, and his "Knowledge". Despite being sceptical at first, I soon asked to be shown the four techniques that enabled one to look within inside and focus on the experience of peace and joy that can be found there. It was a life-changing experience for me . To this day I am grateful to Prem and continue to listen to his talks.

	IF ONLY SUOMI - Alun Buffry IF ONLY SUOMI FACEBOOK PAGE If Only Suomi is a story of love through time. At first thought, the difference between past, present and future may seem obvious. The past has happened, the present is now and the future has yet to come. Second by second, our future becomes our past. That is if time is linear and we travel in a straight line. But what if we could travel in time, your past can become your future or your future can become your past? What if your future could become your past? What sort of paradox could we create? How careful would one have to be to avoid even wiping oneself out of time altogether? What if you went back in time and fell in love, then had to return to the present, leaving your love behind? What if you could travel back and change your past to change the present and your future or even to live your life a second time? This is a story of how the future changed the past, when Al from 2028 travels back to 1972, just for three days. This is a science fiction story and a romance, for Al falls in love in 1972 and then has to return to 2028 without his beloved Suomi. Will they ever meet again?

	CANNABIS LEGALISE AND UTILISE COMMEMORATIVE EDITION 2021 - Alun Buffry A Commemorative Edition for the twentieth anniversary of the first time a cannabis-focused political party put candidates in a UK general election, the Legalise Cannabis Alliance (LCA). This book reproduces the LCA Manifesto, "Legalise and Utilise" which I first put together in 1999; also copies of many of the candidates' election fliers, local and Parliamentary, photos of activists, candidates and gatherings along with the document put together by the late Don Barnard and myself “Cannabis: Challenging the Criminal Justice System”, commonly known as "The Challenge" and correspondence between LCA and Government. and more. Personally I think it was a historical time that brought cannabis into both the public awareness and the Political arena. We gave out almost a million fliers, did a Party Broadcast on the TV in Wales in 2005 numerous press interviews and articles, spoke at the Oxford Union, colleges and even schools. The term “legalise cannabis” means to legalise the possession, cultivation and supply of cannabis. Sadly we have lost many since then, so let this also be a tribute to them: Michael Fell, Mick Pryce, Dave Woofer Barker, Levi McCarthy, Patrick Patman Denning, Lezley von Goetz, Eddie Ellison, Paul Fowler, Dottie Baldwin, Jackie Barnard, John Crome, Biz Ivol, Derrick Large, Grannie Pat Tabram, Stewart Talbot, Mark Palmer, Tom Hanson, Chris Baldwin, John Cripps, Joep Oomen, Don Barnard, Phil Stovell, Ivor Garfield, Colin Paisley, Frank Kirk, Howard Marks and Ann Clarke.

WTU supporters are uniting to raise legal challenge against the British Government for its misrepresentation of the truth and its denial of our fundamental human rights to freedom of consciousness, expression of identity, to peaceful beliefs and practices, to a private life, to pursue the best quality of life, well-being and happiness possible free from arbitrary interference from the State. No one will personally profit from this publication. This was published to raise essential campaign funds with all proceeds going to WTU campaign costs.

	MY LIFE OF JOY by ALUN BUFFRY My life, my writing, my famiy and my friends, written in gratitude to them all. Whether we laugh or whether we cry, the river of life goes rushing by, down the hills and mountain sides, into valleys, long and wide, towards the ocean that is its goal, it's journey travelled by our soul. When I was but a little boy, the river rippled and dashed with joy, and as I grew and longed to learn, the river for the ocean yearned. As young man travelled round the world,the river twisted, turned and twirled, eager to find its resting place, eager to travel in time and space. And as the seeking man grew older, the river found the bigger boulders, but on it travelled without care, it knew its destiny's not there. The rushing water's now quite slow, the river old has nothing to show, it's happiness is calm and deep, as old man takes his final sleep. The ocean that is never ending, is to the sky its waters lending, to rain again on mountain top, to make sure life's rivers never stop. The rivers message lies in this Ocean of Mercy, Peace and Bliss.

What we take for granted actually forms the basis of our shared reality. Each breath we take signals triumph over death, our defiant presence in the world, our dedication to persisting. Global Peace Ambassador and New York Times bestselling author Prem Rawat asks us to pause and take a moment to revel in our breath, to wake up to this miracle of shared human experience. Only when we do so can we open ourselves to the possibility of peace--both inner and outer. Filled with intricate line drawings and flowing prose, Breath is a beautiful guide to finding harmony in each moment. Immerse yourself in the simple but profound power of breath to bring peace to your life.
	HEAR YOURSELF, HOW TO FIND PEACE IN A NOISY WORLD by PREM RAWAT “Rawat’s deep wisdom is a breath of fresh air; Hear Yourself gives the gift of peace and gratitude in a time we sorely need it.”—Ian Morgan Cron, author of The Story of You and co-author of The Road Back to You “Hear Yourself invites us to take a journey from the outside world we live in everyday to the world of peace within us. I highly recommend this inspiring book to anyone ready to take that journey.”—Bill McCarthy, Founder and President of The Unity Foundation The renowned teacher and author of the internationally bestselling Peace Is Possible shows us how to quiet the noise of our busy lives to hear our own unique authentic voice—the source of peace. The cacophony of modern life can be deafening, leaving us feeling frazzled and uneasy. In this warm, wise book, Prem Rawat teaches us how to turn down the noise to “hear ourselves”—to listen to the subtle song of peace that sings inside each of us. Once we learn to truly “hear ourselves” and the voice of peace within, then we can hold on to that as we face all the noise of the world. The culmination of a lifetime of study, Hear Yourself lays out the crucial steps we can use to focus on the voice within. Take a walk in nature and listen for the sounds of harmony, Prem Rawat suggests, or set aside a few minutes each day to feel gratitude, which comes from the core of our being. He challenges us to embrace our thirst for peace and let go of expectations for how it should feel. With one straightforward yet deeply profound question, he helps us to focus—to be present: Am I conscious of where I am today and what I want to experience in this world?” If we allow ourselves to listen, what we hear is the extraordinary miracle of existence—an experience that transforms our relationship to life and everything in it. Packed with powerful insights and compelling stories, Hear Yourself introduces readers to an ancient line of practical wisdom that enlightens us to a simple way to listen. By doing so, Prem Rawat reveals, we can “profoundly change our understanding of ourselves, those around us, and our lives.”
	THE GREATEST TRUTH OF ALL by PREM RAWAT Prem Rawat recommends living in the "moment called now", because that is where peace can be found. In this book, his words, taken from 21 of his talks from around the world, help the reader to understand that human beings are designed to enjoy life. He believes that anyone can know joy, no-one is excluded from that chance. He makes his case with a poetic edge, using his own particular brand of humour and inspiration.
	PEACE IS POSSIBLE by PREM RAWAT Thoughts on happiness, success and relationships for a deeper understanding of life A calming collection of allegories, and illustrations from a world-renowned peace ambassador. Global peace ambassador Prem Rawat has spent his entire life travelling the world to deliver one timeless message: Peace is Possible. Conflict, he explains, takes place at three levels: between countries, between people, and finally within each of us as individuals. These levels are all interconnected. Hence the conflict that rages within a person will lead them to seek out conflict with another. Similarly, conflict between people of one nation is likely to result in conflict between many nations. So the first step to world peace is a simple one: we must first find peace within ourselves. Peace is Possible draws together age-old stories which, as they have been passed down over generations, inspired and transformed the lives of millions. From the power of adaptability, to the importance of trust, to the sticking-place of courage, these are the messages that will change the world. For good.
