“Mouradian’s work is a realistic and intensely moving portrayal of the Armenian Genocide experience as told not only by a child of survivors, but by a truly talented writer. It is at once courageous, heartbreaking, angry, cathartic. An act of generosity and witness.” –Andrew Goldberg, Two Cats Production

My Armenian Story (eBook)
A prequel to A Gift in the Sunlight providing readers the opportunity to learn more about the characters before their forced deportation.

Six months had passed since Turkey joined Germany and Austria in this Great War, and the heat of the war was singeing the edges of its Ottoman Empire.

The Yoga Syllabus (Introduction)
Part of my early research for my doctorate in education took me to India in the mid-seventies. My objective was to build a curriculum in yoga for my community college in Los Angeles and I developed this syllabus as a guide for those teaching yoga in public education. Since one of my findings resulted in discovering how little westerners understand yoga and the effect of traditional yoga postures on the physical body, I developed adaptations of the traditional yoga postures to ease the possibility of injury. What is good can also be bad and Westerners tend to become competitive in mastering yoga postures, never considering cultural differences.
This syllabus was written specifically for educators but the information within it is valuable for anyone interested in learning the basics of meditation and learning about the different kinds of yoga.
