Healing Body, Mind & Emotions
This section addresses the way of healing within a spiritual perspective of emotions such as anger, depression, fear, helplessness, and many other feeling states.
Here, the movement is toward regaining one's sense of wellbeing, centered in the soul, and releasing negative emotions that are less real than the love that exists at one's core. Healing emotions also involves recognizing intruding energies that may be creating or expanding a negative emotional state. This often happens in areas of greatest mental or emotional vulnerability, and requires a return to love and to the Divine within in order to heal.
This list contains selected articles from the Light Omega website and may also contain writings published on the internet. The list may be used as a starting point for the exploration of the process of healing on all levels of being.

2 46 THE PROBLEM OF INTERSEGTORAL BALANCE higher income elasticity of demand for industrial and service output. All these complications could be introduced into a more complex model without destroying its important characteristics though it might weaken some of them. As far as the present model is concerned, the important feature which emerges from it is that the critical factor in continued economic growth is the persistence or continuance of land-saving innovations - man's ability to extract more things, and a greater variety of things, from nature.
As I shall attempt to demonstrate in the next lecture, they arise out of the difficulty of keeping the growth of the availability of primary commodities in line with the growth of the absorptive capacity of the industrial sectors of the world. i. , diminish the sales proceeds of entrepreneurs relatively to the costs incurred, and if they go far enough, they threaten to undermine the foundations of the capitalist system. Hence, to counteract it, capitalist economies develop all kinds of devices for keeping up the propensity to consume of the working classes: modern large-scale advertising, the invention of hire purchase of durable consumer goods, and the provision of mortgage finance for the purchase of houses, are obvious examples.
This is the basic assertion underlying Keynes' principle of effective demand, and it constitutes the essential difference between the Keynesian view, according to which production is governed by demand, and the classical view of Ricardo, Say, and John Stuart Mill (as well as the neo-classicals) according to which demand has no independent role to play in the determination of either the total volume of production or its distribution. To understand the meaning of the Keynesian revolution, as well as the post-Keynesian theories of growth and distribution, it is worth setting out the opposing view, and the hypotheses on which they are built, in some detail.

A carnival for women entrepreneurs will showcase products from creative ventures
Feb 17-18, 11 AM - 8 pm: Attend the FLO Magic bazaar, a mega women carnival at The Art Hub, Atria Mall in Worli, where one will get to meet entrepreneurs who are changing their lives and the world by launching unconventional businesses. From spa owners to book publicists to chocolatiers these women will inspire you with their creativity, determination and grit. We pick two unconventional business women who are rewriting norms
The sock queens
Meet the real socks queens of India,Naazneen Katrak and Lubeina Shahpurwala who have built a sock empire through scratch. The socks that you wear to work, or the ones you wear to watch your kid's football game, Sunday dinner with the family, night classes, road trips, are likely to have been manufactured by them. Mustang Socks, which manufactures about a million pairs of socks a month, began life close to 30 years ago.
A timeless piece
When it comes to indigenous vintage bespoke watches, House of Marigold, a proprietor firm owned by designer Shilpa Choksi, takes the cake. The watches here are designer hand-crafted timepieces with innovative dials, embedded with diamonds and gemstones, and pieces of jewellery designed around rings, brooches and neckpieces.
Move out
U Me Aur Ghar's USP is really that it's the country's first film to be made exclusively for the Web. That's really just about it. While the effort must be lauded, there's better stuff online (from Indian makers too) about the struggles of live-in couples. Even if in this, Omkar Kapoor and Simran Kaur Mundi are a couple pretending to be brother and sister in order to get a flat. The Tinder jokes are staged and everyone's trying too hard to be normal.
Pooch lessons
Quick test: Name five breeds of dogs. Now, part II. Name five Indian breeds of dogs. Failed?
What do we know about Indian breeds really? Few of us know that some have gone extinct, or are on the brink, because of our firang fixation. But, there's so much more to learn. Aleph's latest The Book of Indian Dogs by S Theodore Baskaran is a must-pick if you want to know a little more about the pooch you love. It also covers portrayal of the canines in Indian art.
Song alert!
WE heard Anmol Malik's Let Me Come Home recently and were pleasantly surprised by the dance number. It's got a retro vibe, and we were hopping along as we heard it on our headphones. Popular music director Anu Malik's daughter's vocals are sweet and controlled, and the writing isn't too bad either. But, it's the way the song is produced by Mumbai-based Gaurav Godkhindi that caught our fancy. Tight and innovative. Here's waiting for more from him.
Volunteer at Dharavi

New FDA-Approved Diabetes Medications
For National Diabetes Month, I would like to share new, more convenient forms of diabetic medications that have recently surfaced on the market.
By Shane Power, President of Watertree Health
According to the 2017 National Diabetes Statistics Report, more than 30 million people in America have diabetes, and that number is only expected to increase. Even more alarming is the fact that 7.2 million of that total are undiagnosed. Diabetes requires a daily shot of insulin or sometimes emergency glucagon, but thankfully there are a few newly-developed medications that will help make the routine less daunting. Remember, always consult with your physician before modifying your medication program.
Another new medication is Humalog (insulin pen), which is recognized as a "fast-acting" insulin that begins to work 15 minutes after injection and continues to work up to 4 hours. The benefit of this medication is the added convenience–it's a prefilled, disposable pen that does not require measuring the dosage and using a syringe. It is typically given within fifteen minutes before a meal or immediately after a meal, and may be used in regimens with other long-acting insulin for coverage throughout the day. This medication is prescribed to help control blood sugar levels in both type 1 and type 2 diabetics.
If you find that the prices of these new medications are too expensive, talk to your pharmacy–they can be a great resource for helping bring costs down. Please share this article with friends and family, especially those living with diabetes.

Why do we give to charities or causes from which we expect nothing more tangible than the usual warm fuzzy satisfaction? There are sociological and now evo-biological explanations for our altruisms. Most of us give for simple reasons - compassion, willingness to share, support for a worthy cause. Sometimes we also give for more mundane monetary or social reasons - tax breaks or because we cannot turn down a friend's request.
My donations continue through the calendar year depending on who needs my help at a particular time or fundraiser. However, the bulk of the check writing takes place right around this time when I go through my list of regular charities and send out the customary funds. I expect nothing in return although many of the organizations send me token gifts of address labels, note pads, car decals or some such item of appreciation along with a thank-you note and another form for future donations. Occasionally, some of them would have special gifts associated with different levels of donations. Most of the time I pass on these unless it is something quirky or mildly useful that I want. I have in the last thirty years, opted to receive perhaps three or four such gift items while making charitable donations. This year however, I lusted after an "All Things Considered" commemorative coffee mug when I donated to the Houston area NPR station. It was one of the gifts being offered at the level of contribution that I made. The cost of receiving the gift was $10 ($6 for the mug + $4 for shipping & handling) which was deducted from my total contribution. The donation was made a few months ago during the radio station's fund raising drive and soon thereafter I received a receipt for my net contribution. I had forgotten about the whole thing. But a few days ago when I sat down to write the remaining charity checks, I remembered the mug and realized that I haven't yet received it. This fact bothered me a lot! I have been wondering why. It is after all only a six dollar mug and I would have made the same contribution even without the lure of the mug. Please explain this strange gnawing acquisitive feeling in an endeavor whose essence was really an act of giving on my part. Why does the missing mug make me feel slightly cheated? Is it because even in our generosity, we like to receive what we are promised, however trivial the gift may be?
One of my long time favorite charities, the World Wildlife Fund customarily offers gifts with donations. Except for two gifts (a stuffed tiger and a tote bag, both of which were delivered as promised) in the last twenty five years, I routinely decline their gifts. But this year again, the WWF has something I really wanted. So I wrote them a check and checked the "yes" square next to the item. Now I will wait for my WWF Butterfly Umbrella!!

Converse Rubber Tracks:
Drum Machine Shoe Box
Musicians from Joey Ramon to Wiz Khalifa have all worn Converse - it is a piece of the American rock star wardrobe.
Tasked with finding a way to bring more of the Converse brand (namely their Rubber Tracks music program) into retail spaces, I redesigned and 3d modeled a Converse store that centers around music.
Inside the space is a The Drum Machine Shoebox. This musical box is an interactive digital instrument that is built into a standard Converse shoe box. With conductive paint sensors, shoppers can create a song that sources it's samples from the Rubber Tracks music library.

The boldest move in this reshuffle is keeping Jeremy Hunt at Health
First Jeremy Hunt was getting sacked as Health Secretary. The response from some was predictable.
But then an hour later, he was confirmed in his job. The response then was equally predictable.
No one feels more deflated and bitter than after apparent victory is snatched away. That's how a lot of #juniordoctors will be feeling now. It is a reversal that can only aggravate the government's ongoing conflict with them over a new contract.
For despite the fact that the doctors' union, the BMA, wants to sign a deal over the contract, and the fact that the government, obviously, wants to sign the deal, there is NO deal. The doctors themselves have rejected it, in a referendum, by 58 per cent to 42 per cent.
There could well be more strikes, Jeremy Hunt has described the situation as "no mans' land" and the contract will be imposed. Right about now, the stand off between the government and the NHS looks one of the most combustible issues facing the new PM.
So why has she turned down the obvious opportunity to get rid of the man who charted the path to this no-man's-land in the first place? It's not as if she if proving shy in her other ministerial hiring and firings. Two answers. One: her whole reputation now rests on being a tough negotiator, entrusted to deliver Brexit. She can hardly be seen to be caving in to junior doctors in her first argument of note.
Second, she may simply want someone who is already tarnished by this lengthy contract dispute to push it through. Might Hunt be shuffled once it is imposed and – hopefully, from the PM's point of view – the fuss dies down?
This is a big gamble. Jeremy Hunt once had a reputation as a supremely emollient figure, skilled at smoothing ruffled feathers. But the problem is that at Health he has become a believer, he has found his cause. That is why he carries with him a folder, full of data and charts and spreadsheets. These are the statistics that he brings out to demonstrate the justice of his campaign to make the NHS a "seven-day" service. Far from being emollient he is now totally wedded to one course of action. That is a good thing for driving reform, but not for making unpleasant spats go away. So there is no guarantee that the fuss will die down.
In fact, reappointing Hunt, after giving lots of doctors the impression that he was being shifted, and therefore that they were being "listened to", is only likely to make things worse. This is a bold reshuffle from Theresa May, but she may come to regret the one move she didn't make.

This isn't the first time we have seen smart mirrors in fitting rooms, but these ones are heat-sensitive. Created by Alexander Svensson for Japanese fashion brand Uniqlo, the Heattech Mirror is supposed to help show off their Autumn/Winter 2015 collection. More specifically, the mirror is designed to show of their thermal items.
Despite the very thin appearance of Uniqlo's Heattech line, the thermal line stores body heat in air pockets. The smart mirrors are supposed to counteract any disbelief on the part of customers by enabling them to see the technology in action. The mirrors are connected to a heat-sensitive camera as well as an RFID chip located in the item's security tag.
This is just one example of how retailers can introduce modern technology to improve the shopping experience for consumers.

Be back in Houston by noon to turn in
my rental. *sigh*. Oh well. I need to head back eastward today, regardless of how much of a good time has be had by all, meaning me.
Yesterday was a really fine drive. I even managed to avoid denizens of the law enforcement type. Local, state AND federal! Drove about 200 miles I think and ended up where I started out from. Tired, hungry, sunburned, gritty, and dusty. But content nonetheless. Got a lot to say and show, but I'm a little short on time. *grins*. My own fault See pics in this post. HAHAHAHAHA!
Bill cooked me a terrific omelette this morning. Can honestly recommend this place. Quiet and quite comfortable.

Shaykh Dr Gibril Haddad (born in Beirut, Lebanon, 1960) is an influential Islamic scholar, religious leader, author, and Arabic translator of classical Islamic texts. He embraced Islam while a graduate student in French Literature at Columbia University in New York. The Study Quran can be viewed here. Click on the screen prints below for greater viewing clarity.
25 replies
I just glanced at Shaykh Haddad's review.
His criticism seems to be based on a deep and considered reading.
I do not want to make any judgements on his review but I appreciate his contribution.
I agree that some of his comments are "devastating" to many points in The Study Qur'an such as "It is like the amoralist saying it is God's will for there to be evil."
However, I still see value in The Study Qur'an as I see itin many commentaries
I don't like taking any commentary as final….I like reading many of them to learn the different shades of meaning that the Wise Qur'an imparts to readers ready to listen well.
I think it is a little dangerous for any Muslim to rely on only one commentary.
I did not read all or even most of the commentaries but my favorite commentaries so far is Muhammad Asad and Abdullah Yusuf Ali.
Thanks Paul for posting this book review.
I agree brother Omer. We shouldn't rely on any one commentary. I also like Asad and Ali's commentaries, but they also have some weaknesses.
Seems like the best review there is on the book, namely due to actually expounding on not only what Perennialism is but also how it's visible in The Study Quran's attempts at explanation in certain and various areas. Feels like this is what people call "'the' review" to share on the book.
I think I'll continue sticking to Ahmad Zaki Hammad's translation. Both wonderful to read and accurate in its translation, and approved here https://bilalaliansari.com/2012/09/03/the-gracious-quran-my-preferred-translation-of-the-qurans-meanings-in-english/. It did sound too good to be true that a single volume of both a superb translation and magnificently huge yet diverse and true, orthodox commentary would exist now. Gotta go the hard way and read/learn more from reputable scholars and books.
Ahmad Zaki Hammad's translation can be read online, and downloaded from, the Internet Archive –
Too polemical.
Sh Haddad is expecting too much from a "human endeavor" and ALL Tafsir or compilation of Tafsirs are human endeavors. No one was expecting a replication of the complexity or uniqueness of the original (arabic) Quran in a Tafsir…
To make suspect the endeavors of a group or an individual because some "xyz" aspect is not the "same as us" is also immature. God created us in diversity so that we may know one another. IMO, Dr Shabir Ally's criticism seems balanced. But, where Sheikh Haddad points out specific instances to criticize—these do need to be considered and may be helpful in any future revision, editions or other attempts at a similar endeavor.
Perennial philosophy—" is a perspective in the philosophy of religion which views each of the world's religious traditions as sharing a single, universal truth on which foundation all religious knowledge and doctrine has grown." —and any Muslim who understands Tawheed will have to admit the fact that if God is one (Unique)—then all discourse about God is talking about that One God, the only God that exists—which is the Ultimate reality—the Truth….there is no other way to think about it…
—-This is not relativism—rather, it accepts the fact the there is One Reality/Truth (Universal/objective) but the articulation and experience of it is subjective—in other words objectivity and subjectivity are not understood as binaries opposed to each other—but as parts of a whole (Unity/Tawheed). The diversity created from this subjective experience and articulation promotes and tests our compassion, respect for others, tolerance and faith in God. The same can also be said of the Quran and Tafsir—the Quran is One—but its articulation as well as the experience of an individual reader are subjective and together they form a beautiful harmony….
Today,in a time of extreme and toxic exclusivist claims by some groups of Muslims—like ISIS—it is important that we understand the Unity promoted in the Quran without compromising on Truth/Reality/One God.
"…as alien to the Qur'ān and Sunna…"
This is the single most unacademic thing in Dr.Haddad's review. When Dr.Haddad says something is against the Quran and Sunnah, he has in mind a very specific understanding of what the Quran and Sunna are.
Also, Dr.Haddad comes off as needlessly polemical and harsh in his reviews. Just look at his review of Dr.Yasin Dutton's book on the origins of Islamic Law.
Anon, great reflective comment.
Thanks much.

I don't read Bookforum very often. I should really remedy this, especially if their articles are all as good as Doubleday editor Gerald's Howard's essay about The Long Voyage, the new collection of Malcolm Cowley's letters edited by Hans Bak. Cowley, like Edmund Wilson, Maxwell Perkins, and Harold Ober, was a man who shaped the early- to mid-2oth century American literary scene even when he wasn't in America. Or perhaps it's more accurate to say that he helped shape this scene precisely because he got out of America for a little while. Howard writes:
Gertrude Stein gave the American writers who flocked to Paris in the '20s their indelible tag, "the Lost Generation," but it was Malcolm Cowley who first gave his cohort its enduring narrative of rebellious escape from, and chastened return to, America in Exile's Return (1934), a memoir and generational "collective novel" that beat Hemingway's A Moveable Feast to the punch by three decades. We take the near-mythic saga and achievements of this generation for granted today, but as Cowley writes in his elegiac retrospective chronicle and portrait gallery, A Second Flowering, his memoir was "howled down by older reviewers [who] ridiculed the notion that the men of the 1920s had special characteristics and that their adventures in Paris were a story worth telling."
Had writing his literary memoirs been Cowley's sole accomplishment, his letters would be worth reading. But Cowley did much more than write criticism and biography, including editing The New Republic, though this part of his career was tainted by his failure to side with the Trotskyites against the Stalinists in the battle for the future of Marxism. His most important contribution though was championing authors who might otherwise have remained obscure, Faulkner and Kerouac chief among these. It isn't overstating the case to say that without Malcolm Cowley, William Faulkner wouldn't have won the 1949 Nobel Prize. And without this award, Faulkner might have been forced to spend the rest of his life tinkering on Hollywood scripts to scrape together enough money to put out a novel here and there that would shortly go out of print. Cowley's 1946 Portable Faulkner is one of the ten most important books of American fiction because it uses an author's own works to make a case for his greatness. That's the power of good editing, and even Faulkner himself was shocked by Cowley's achievement.
Cowley is also responsible for On the Road getting published by Viking in 1957. It's fashionable among some academics and writers to dismiss Kerouac (Capote famously called him a "typist"), but On the Road might very well be another of the ten most significant works of American fiction because it's so threatening to middle-class domesticity. It reminds us (warns us?) that there are always people living on the fringes of American respectability who are just as smart and a hell of a lot more interesting than those living the lives they've been told they should. It provokes righteous indignation in older readers because it's simultaneously naive and true: we have choices when it comes to how we lead our lives, and ultimately our regret-fueled misery is of our own making because we care too much about what other people think. It's this disdain for respectability that connects Faulkner and Kerouac, making Cowley's attraction to both writers less unlikely than it might at first seem.
So if you have an erudite wo/man of letters on your Christmas shopping list, you could do much worse than to buy s/h(e)im an 850-page volume of letters written by a man who changed American literary history for the better.

It was a beer that Brewery Vivant intended to brew only once.
However, Big Red Coq not only stuck around after its initial run, but it has also become the No. 2 selling beer for the Grand Rapids-based brewery, according to co-founder Jason Spaulding.
"We gave it a tongue-in-cheek name because we thought it would be a one-off batch, but once it started gaining traction, we thought, 'We can't change it now,'" Spaulding said. "Luckily, there's a good sense of humor in the beer world."
There's reason to see why Big Red Coq has staying power: The Belgian-American hoppy red ale took top honors in Revue's blind tasting of 13 red and amber ales.
The beer got its start in the early days of Brewery Vivant, when the company was still experimenting with what would form its lineup of mainstay beers, according to Spaulding. His initial instruction to head brewer Jacob Derylo was to come up with "a hoppy red beer," and Big Red Coq "was an instant hit. … It just kept picking up momentum."
"Back then, having a lot of hops in a Belgian-style beer wasn't done that often," Spaulding said. "It was pretty new."
Brewery Vivant perfected the recipe in-house, trying different variations and serving them at the pub at 925 Cherry Street in Grand Rapids. Today, the beer is brewed with citra hops, which explains the tropical flavors, along with a proprietary blend of some other hop varieties.
Style Notes
Ambers and reds are two related styles of ale that got their start in America in the 1980s. For their part, ambers started as a new interpretation of English bitters, according to author Jeff Alworth in "The Beer Bible."
Most ambers focus on balance and feature caramel and toffee sweetness from the caramel or crystal malt. Hops are present, but they take a backseat to the pronounced malty flavors.
On the other hand, red ales have more hop character (some a lot more) and a lighter body, while they also retain some of the caramel malty sweetness.
"It being a red, I wanted it to have a malt background to it as well," Spaulding said. "The malt does well with mango essence of the citra. Combined with our Belgian yeast strain, it makes it unique."
Highly Recommended
Big Red Coq
Brewery Vivant, Grand Rapids
Score: 88.5
Brewer's description: This red ale is all about hops. It is an American-Belgian fusion of beer styles taking imported Belgian caramel malts and slapping it with a heavy-handed dose of American hops. Expect hints of mango, pineapple and citrus to hit your nose with an assertive hop presence.
Revue: This is a beer that looks the part of a red ale, but the fruity hop aroma sets it apart. Where most reds or ambers are about balance of malty and hoppy, this one definitely swings more to citrusy hops — and we're OK with that. Big Red Coq may not be true to style, but it was true to our reviewers' palates.
Sundog Amber Ale
New Holland Brewing Co., Holland and Grand Rapids
Score: 79.25
Brewer's description: Sundog is an amber ale that emulates the copper glow of a Lake Michigan sunset. A showcase for caramel malt, Sundog presents a toasty character, with subtle malty sweetness and a nutty finish.
Revue: This amber also featured a nice hoppy characteristic in the nose. Sundog is a true-to-style amber, with an interplay of caramel malty sweetness and hoppy notes. The notable hop aroma earned high points, as did this beer's well-balanced flavor. Definitely a beer to revisit. [Fun fact: Before starting Brewery Vivant, Jason Spaulding co-founded New Holland with Brett VanderKamp in 1997, and helped create Sundog as well.]
Amber Ale
Dark Horse Brewing Co., Marshall
Score: 75.25
Brewer's description: While the malt and hops give this beer an amazing copper color, medium body, and a smooth mouthfeel, it's the yeast that sets this one apart from other amber ales. … We thought it would be cool to give our Amber a little Belgian touch. We accomplish this by using an "almost Belgian" yeast strain producing similar esters and flavors commonly found in more traditional Belgian beers.
Revue: As one reviewer described it, this is a "Belgian banana bread wonder." Its American amber looks belie its Euro-inspired roots, which add yeasty characteristics that probably put it at the fringe of what many would consider an amber. Still, the banana esters are a welcome addition, providing some depth and complexity to the nicely balanced amber base.
El Rojo
Griffin Claw Brewing Co., Birmingham
Score: 74.75
Brewer's description: Our (Great American Beer Fest) bronze medal winning El Rojo Red Ale has a malty, roasted flavor profile. Entered in competition as an English brown, the El Rojo is really more of an American Red — bigger than Scottish Reds with a beautiful ruby red color and a rich, roasty, caramel body.
Revue: During our blind tasting, the reviewers wondered whether a mislabeled brown ale had somehow slipped into the roster. It's a darker beer than most reds, although it's still clear and free from haze. Reviewers split on the aroma of this beer, but its balanced malty flavor and lingering finish earned praise. While other beers tasted here had more character from their hops, El Rojo was all about the malt.
Train Wreck Ale, Mountain Town Brewing Co., Mt. Pleasant. Score: 66.5
Red Jacket Amber Ale, Keweenaw Brewing Co., Houghton. Score: 64
Northern Hawk Owl, Right Brain Brewery, Traverse City. Score: 62.25
Amber, Bell's Brewery Inc., Galesburg. Score: 62.25

He expressed optimism about the unusually long overseas trip as he boarded Marine One for Joint Base Andrews, from where he departed for Hawaii.
"I think we're going to have great success," he told reporters. "We'll be talking about trade. We'll be talking about, obviously, North Korea."
Trump is scheduled to visit five countries after stopping in Hawaii: Japan, South Korea, China, Vietnam and the Philippines.
He hinted that the North Korea issue will occupy a large portion of his meetings with leaders there.
"We'll be enlisting the help of a lot of people and countries and we'll see what happens," he said. "But I think we're going to have a very successful trip. There is a lot of good will." SOURCE FROM THE YONHAP NEWS AGENCY.

Op Speedy3d staat een preview van Alone in The Dark 4.A long time ago before the likes of 'Resident Evil' had even been dreamt of, there was a game that would set the world on fire. A game that would combine action and adventure into one seeming mass and start to help break down the barrier between graphics and gameplay. Alone In The Dark was its name and even today a copy still resides almost un-touched in our back office. Such is a testament to just how great it was.
Many have forgotten the game that helped shape a hundred clones and bring about a new generation of gaming, but not all. We can still remember the eerie polygon characters as they strut around a haunted house clutching shot guns, ready to dispatch any denizen that dare approach. A sequel was soon made but failed by being to similar to the original and then finally a ground breaking third arrived. Set in a western town the graphics and gameplay surpassed all others, unfortunately our story ends there because a fourth was never made, until now.
Ik kan niet wachten totdat dit spel uitkomt,hoop ik alleen wel dat ze het camerawerk verbeterd hebben

French woman kidnapped in Kenya resort
- Published
A French woman has been kidnapped by an armed gang on Kenya's northern resort island of Manda and taken to Somalia, Kenyan officials say.
The disabled woman, 66, was attacked at her bungalow at Ras Kitau. Kenya's government said it believed the abductors were al-Shabab militants.
A Kenyan statement said some abductors were injured in a shootout with two Kenyan ships trying to stop them.
The kidnap comes three weeks after a UK couple were attacked further north.
Gunmen shot dead husband David Tebbutt and kidnapped his wife Judith in Kiwayu. She was taken across the border to Somalia.
'Hugely damaging'
The gunmen struck at Ras Kitau at 03:30 (00:30 GMT) on Saturday.
"An elderly, disabled French lady who has been living in Manda Island in her own house was abducted by 10 heavily armed Somali bandits suspected to be al-Shabab operatives from Ras Chiamboni in Somalia, near the Kenyan border," a Kenyan government statement said.
Abu Chiaba, a local legislator, said the gang had come into Manda by boat in the middle of the night.
"The elderly French woman is well known in the area, she comes to Manda regularly," Mr Chiaba said.
Witnesses say they heard at least two gunshots before the woman was taken away by the attackers.
"We were all startled awake because there were gunshots," said Jeremiah Kiptoon, who works on Manda island.
"The dogs were barking and people were screaming... I ran to the place to see what was happening but by the time I got there, the lady was gone."
Two coastguard vessels and a police helicopter chased the abductors, and were involved in an exchange of fire, Internal Security Minister George Saitoti said in a statement.
He said several of the abductors were injured but they still managed to enter Somali territory in a motor boat.
The government said "every effort" was being made to rescue the woman.
Kenya's Tourism Minister Najib Balala called for international assistance to help them in their efforts to secure the border with Somalia.
"The core problem is Somalia and the core problem is criminal elements who manage to sneak into the country," he told the BBC.
"Whatever we're going to do, if we don't have the support of the international community to address the Somali issue then it is very challenging to manage to man the border in Somalia."
France has warned French visitors to avoid the area.
"It is advised against staying on the Lamu archipelago and its region near the Somali border," the French foreign ministry said on its website.
The attack happened just across a lagoon from Shela - an exclusive resort on Lamu island.
This attack has the potential to do severe damage to Kenya's tourism industry, the BBC's Will Ross in Nairobi says.
