Cutting the Ties of Karma
Phyllis Krystal
What do we inherit from our family? We inherit karma. We can never "own" anything, so money and possessions are only "loaned" to us. We spend money, or use possessions, but we can't take them with us. In this book, Phyllis Krystal says that karma is like a patchwork quilt, made up of bits and pieces of unfinished business that we bring over from other lifetimes. She explains that we can rid ourselves of these unnecessary "patches" as we discover what they are. Krystal includes exercises to get rid of karma. This book will be helpful for many people who have just begun to think about the possibilities of karma and karmic ties.

Cutting More Ties That Bind: Letting Go of Fear, Anger, Guilt, and Jealousy so We Can Educate Our Children and Change Ourselves
Phyllis Krystal
This is the sequel to Cutting Ties that Bind, and contains advanced information that can be used to release ourselves from more complex systems that program behavior. These include familial and national customs-things we do without even thinking about them-role playing, acting out of superstition, fear of unmentioned taboos, old prejudices, and fears that we accept blindly. This is the book that will make us "see" what we are doing; it will help us release though-forms; it will help us be kind of parents we wish we had! This very important book is a textbook of effective self-awareness that opens the door to a lifestyle of self-assured and happy people. Phyllis Krystal has taught this workshop in England, Ireland, Europe, India, South America, New Zealand, Australia, and in the USA. She lives in California.

Taming Our Monkey Mind: Insight, Detachment, Identity
Phyllis Krystal
In Taming Our Monkey Mind, Phyllis Krystal explains how we often allow ourselves to get trapped by our desires. She equates this behavior to the monkey jar or gourd. The fistful of candy is too big to go through the small opening and he can't run from the hunters because his fist is stuck in the jar. Impulsive, curious, impatient, and driven by its senses, the monkey serves to illustrate how the undisciplined mind's attachments can become a prison. By taming our monkey mind-overcoming our greed and desire-we findthe way to free ourselves from the material work so we can enter the world of the Divine. Phyllis Krystal shares Sai Baba's insights along with her own growth techniques in this exciting and very practical book.

Ceiling on desires, expanded edition
Phyllis Krystal
The program outlined in this book was designed by Sri Sathya Sai Baba, an Indian world teacher, to help individuals to gradually reduce wasteful use of money, food, time and energy, in order to have more of each available for their daily needs.
It was launched almost twenty five years ago, but is now even more timely due to the present insecurity caused by the worldwide economic crisis.
