    Early in 
    my search for SPIRIT, 
    one small book,
    
    THE SCIENCE OF BREATH, by Yogi Ramacharaka, opened my mind, heart 
    and soul to the power of breathing.
     Human beings are so busy doing that they forget the 
    simple act of being, which entails breathing. 
    Click the icon of the lake to the left and view the 
    beautiful presentation that enables you to remember to take deep breaths, 
    often. 
    
    
    PROBLEM IN SUDAN 
    
    
      
        
          | 
        
        
         Life expectancy in Sudan 
        is just 58 years. In the United States, the average person can expect to 
        live to the age of 77.  | 
       
      
      
        
          | 
        
        
         Of every 1,000 babies 
        born alive in Sudan, 94 will die before their fifth birthdays -- 
        compared to only 8 out of 1,000 in the United States.  | 
       
      
      
        
          | 
        
        
         Safe water is accessible 
        to just 75% of the people of Sudan. Almost everyone in the United States 
        has access to safe water.  | 
       
      
      
        
          | 
        
        
         Illiteracy is a major 
        problem in Africa, as is the disparity between men's and women's 
        education. In Sudan, 72% of the men and just 51% of the women are 
        literate. In the United States, nearly all adults -- 97% of both men and 
        women -- can read and write.  | 
       
      
      
        
          | 
        
        
         Annual per capita income 
        in Sudan is $1,970 (real GDP per capita, ppp$). It is $34,320 in the 
        United States.  | 
       
     
     Some Solutions 
    
     | 
    
     
    
    Energy comes from surrendering to the gift of breath (your creative 
    life-flow).
