Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the social psychology of belief systems and how they influence perceptions of reality. These belief systems, from politics to religion to science, shape one’s thoughts and views, but also can be the cause of conflict and disagreement over values, particularly when they are enacted in political policies. In Belief Systems and the Perceptions of Reality, editors Bastiaan Rutjens and Mark Brandt examine the social psychological effects at the heart of the conflict, by bringing together contributions under five themes: Motivated Reasoning; Inequality; Threat; Scientists Interpreting Science; and People Interpreting Science. This book aims to create a more integrated understanding of reality perception and its connection with belief systems, viewed through the lens of social psychology. The synthesis of expert contributors as well as the literature around social psychology and belief systems makes this a unique resource for students, researchers and academics in behavioural and social sciences, as well as activists and journalists working in this political field.

(Drop into the Pool of Unlimited Potential and BE.) Quantum play keeps the ego away. The last section of the book contains The SOELI Transmissions. SOELI is the Source of Energy-Light- Information..."God." Keli gets out of the way, sits at her computer, and types information that comes straight from SOELI. Keli has no idea what has been said, and the transcript you will read is the pure, raw, and unedited transmission. Only a simple spell check has been done for easier reading. Keli Adams has been studying the mind/body connection, other dimensions and states of consciousness, quantum physics, and alternative healing for over thirty years.

This is her seventh book. She has been a flight attendant for a major American airline since 1986 and lives somewhere, nowhere, and everywhere with her small herd of cats. Keli offers group spirit communication "GatheringZ," one-on-one sessions, and group talks. Her unique DROPzone "play dates" have become hugely popular. As Keli puts it, "Show up, shut up, drop into the POUP (Pool of Unlimited Potential), and play." Leave all the BS (belief systems) and opinions at the door, and come in with a childlike, open-hearted sense of trust, curiosity, and play. You leave three hours later "repatterned, recalibrated, and restored" on many deep levels. For more information about Keli, her books, or services, visit www.keliadams.com.

Book excerpt: An expert on the psychology of belief examines how our thoughts and feelings, actions and reactions, respond not to the world as it actually is but to the world as we believeit to be. This book explores the psychology of belief - how beliefs are formed, how they are influenced both by internal factors, such as perception, memory, reason, emotion, and prior beliefs, as well as external factors, such as experience, identification with a group, social pressure, and manipulation. It also reveals how vulnerable beliefs are to error, and how they can be held with great confidence even when factually false. The author, a social psychologist who specializes in the psychology of belief, elucidates how the brain and nervous system function to create the perceptions, memories, and emotions that shape belief. He explains how and why distorted perceptions, false memories, and inappropriate emotional reactions that sometimes lead us to embrace false beliefs are natural products of mental functioning. He also shows why it is so difficult to change our beliefs when they collide with contradictions. Covering a wide range -- from self-perception and the perceived validity of everyday experience to paranormal, religious, and even fatal beliefs--the book demonstrates how crucial beliefs are to molding our experience and why they have such a powerful hold on our behavior.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume draws together leading experts from academia, think-tanks and donor agencies, to examine the impact of transnational knowledge networks in the formulation of local, national and global policy in the field of international development and transition studies. These leading contributors pay particular attention to the global reach of research and the manner in which knowledge is incorporated into, and shapes, transnational policy domains. They show how the 'knowledge agenda' has become a central part of the discourse of both developing societies and advanced economies. Governments and international organizations devote considerable financial resources to both in-house and contracted research. This volume will be of great interest to students, researchers and policy makers concerned with global policy, global governance and development.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although we are all living in the same world, we are simultaneously each living in our own seperate universe, where each person observes himself as the center of that universe. Each person has a unique conditioning and belief structure that create his perspective in which he views reality. The world than interfaces witheach person to create a reality that conforms to his beliefs. A person's conditioning and beliefs affect his attitudes and emotions, which then magnetize certain energies that resonate to his state of being. In this way each individual is creating a seperate reality according to his perceptions of truth. What we percieve as reality is only the surface of a much deeper and greater truth. Beyond the apparent world lies the essence of life and a vast kingdom of hidden knowledge. Our conditioning and beliefs bind us to a certain perspective in which we view our reality. Perceptions of Reality show us how we can break free of the bondage of our conditioning that holds us in a life of mediocrity. When we become free from this bondage, we can change our perspective, which in turn, changes our perceptions. From a highter perspective we can see the larger picture of our lives and the world. We will see the circumstances that have created our present reality, and the relationships of events and experiences that were previously beyond our horizons of perception. From this higher perspective we will perceive the world in a new light. It will change brfore our eyes and interface with us in a new and more positive way. We will be able to take control of our lives, change our destiny and shape a new future. From this higher state of awareness, we will discover the portal to access the abstract mind, which is the mental function of genius and the doorway to revelation. From the perspective of revelation, we will open the doors into the absolute realms, beyond material time and space, and describes the perceptions of God, the soul, the world, and the paths to higher consciousness. Perceptions of Reality will show us how to access the abstract mind and open the doorways into revelation, creating a new reality, full of abundance, harmony and joy.

This book was released on 2009-11-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Believe or not To Believe: The Social and Neurological Consequences of Belief Systems An in-depth look at how we limit our conscious evolution by maintaining rigid belief systems that no longer serve us and are lacking any logic or reason considering today’s advances in physics, neuroscience, and recent archaeological fi nds. Neuroscience has shown that people who meditate have much higher brain coherence than people who don’t; this balance is thought to be the gateway for spiritual enlightenment, which could be viewed as a bioneurological event. Through a better understanding of reality and our relationship to it, humankind will be able to see through the veils of illusion that keep us in constant confl ict with one another. Included are interviews with Dr. Bruce Lipton, Dr. Joe Dispenza, Dr. Andrew Newberg, Fred Alan Wolf, Neale Donald Walsch, Lynne McTaggart, Gary Zukav, Amit Goswami, Shakti Gawain, Dan Millman, Byron Katie, Alberto Villoldo, PhD, Drunvalo Melchizedek, Peter Russell, Timothy Freke, and Rollin McCraty of HeartMath. The book’s message refl ects the words of Voltaire: “Those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.”

There is a dark and destructive, covert conspiracy within. It sabotages our success, work, and our most-important loving relationships. It is busy actively working against you even as you read this synopsis. While it is actually a fear-based illusion, it is typically perceived as reality and is rarely, if ever, examined. Through simple heuristic devices, you can begin to explore the nature of your world, and how you perceive it. Whats moreyou can begin to lay the groundwork and build the foundation for discovering who you really are and it isnt what you think. Perhaps most importantly, you can work within your relationships to discover your special gifts and the sacred nature of your partner and take the necessary steps to heal the sabotage that would destroy it.

Book excerpt: A groundbreaking popular psychology book that explores the deep connection between our body and our brain. Over decades of study, University of Virginia psychologist Dennis Proffitt has shown that we are each living our own personal version of Gulliver’s Travels, where the size and shape of the things we see are scaled to the size of our bodies, and our ability to interact with them. Stairs look less steep as dieters lose weight, baseballs grow bigger the better players hit, hills look less daunting if you’re standing next to a close friend, and learning happens faster when you can talk with your hands. Written with journalist Drake Baer, Perception marries academic rigor with mainstream accessibility. The research presented and the personalities profiled will show what it means to not only have, but be, your unique human body. The positive ramifications of viewing ourselves from this embodied perspective include greater athletic, academic, and professional achievement, more nourishing relationships, and greater personal well-being. The better we can understand what our bodies are—what they excel at, what they need, what they must avoid—the better we can live our lives.

Book excerpt: Lying Beliefs is a book that will assist anyone who is sincerely seeking to free themselves from the controlling and conflicting beliefs that breed a systematic way of living that can seem like a prison at times.In truth, it is our flawed perception of reality that imprisons us. The book brilliantly articulates how humanity fails to recognize that it is only the arguable man-made beliefs that we have embraced that creates a fraudulent perception of who we think we are; which in turn deters our awareness from our true divine nature. On a rare occasion a book comes along that really challenges you to take a deep look at your belief system. In an age where so many are looking for a true sense of freedom and fulfillment, few realize that it is our core beliefs that 'lie' in the way of our destiny. Our individual belief systems constructs an impenetrable wall within our minds that isolates and confines us. Thus, true freedom and fulfillment can only be obtained when our attention is not being constantly consumed by the convoluted information that occupies our minds. The Author eloquently exposes in a breathtaking way, how we human beings via our different man-made ideas, beliefs, theories, etc...live our lives fearfully tucked away in our own remote worlds, seemingly encased in our own restricted boxes. Thus, the material in this book compels you not to just think outside of the box, but to help you realize that in reality there is NO box; by way of stretching or expanding your awareness beyond the limitation of what you have been taught to believe, in order to free the true sacred identity of who you are from the self-controlling idea of who you think you are, which has been conceptualized by your mind.

Book excerpt: The Believing Brain is bestselling author Michael Shermer's comprehensive and provocative theory on how beliefs are born, formed, reinforced, challenged, changed, and extinguished. In this work synthesizing thirty years of research, psychologist, historian of science, and the world's best-known skeptic Michael Shermer upends the traditional thinking about how humans form beliefs about the world. Simply put, beliefs come first and explanations for beliefs follow. The brain, Shermer argues, is a belief engine. From sensory data flowing in through the senses, the brain naturally begins to look for and find patterns, and then infuses those patterns with meaning. Our brains connect the dots of our world into meaningful patterns that explain why things happen, and these patterns become beliefs. Once beliefs are formed the brain begins to look for and find confirmatory evidence in support of those beliefs, which accelerates the process of reinforcing them, and round and round the process goes in a positive-feedback loop of belief confirmation. Shermer outlines the numerous cognitive tools our brains engage to reinforce our beliefs as truths. Interlaced with his theory of belief, Shermer provides countless real-world examples of how this process operates, from politics, economics, and religion to conspiracy theories, the supernatural, and the paranormal. Ultimately, he demonstrates why science is the best tool ever devised to determine whether or not a belief matches reality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's About You! integrates some of the most profound teachings from science, metaphysics, psychology, philosophy and spirituality into a set of experiential workbooks. The primary aim is to awaken the reader to their own personal intent and in so doing clarify the purpose of their life. Such knowledge equips us with the means to better manage those key areas within our lives - health, relationships, occupation and abundance, and begin living a more joyful existence. In this new, revised edition, Chris W.E. Johnson posits that when we know the totality of our Self – the fabulous resources of our Essence self, along with the foibles, fears and errant beliefs of our ego-self – we are in a much better position to free ourselves from the restraints that impede the full expression of the Self in the physical domain.
