Book excerpt: We live in a world beset by many problems, and most of these problems are of our own creation. There is a method for solving these problems, and it can be found in the Christ message. In A New Age of Vision, author J. Craig Woods revisits the message Jesus brought to earth in an attempt to understand Gods purpose for us and how we can improve our human condition through spiritual growth. A spiritual journey to find the truth in the gospel of Jesus Christ, A New Age of Vision takes a new and bold look at what his message really means for us today. It explores the history of Christian religion and offers examples of how Christian doctrines were developed, and why these man-made doctrines missed the mark. It seeks to provide an understanding of why the Christian religion has failed us, and it also discusses the nature of our mind which provides the connection between the spiritual and physical realm. Finally, it investigates the missing gospel books and reveals an exciting truth about the teaching of Jesus Christ. A New Age of Vision shows how the Christ message offers us the truth we need for our tumultuous times. Learning and understanding this message provides the instructions for spiritual growth and the return to our spiritual Garden of Eden.

Book excerpt: AN OPRAH'S BOOK CLUB SELECTION An Instant New York Times Bestseller Shortlisted for the 2021 Booker Prize Longlisted for the 2021 National Book Award for Fiction Longlisted for the 2022 Andrew Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Fiction A heartrending new novel from the Pulitzer Prize–winning and #1 New York Times best-selling author of The Overstory. The astrobiologist Theo Byrne searches for life throughout the cosmos while single-handedly raising his unusual nine-year-old, Robin, following the death of his wife. Robin is a warm, kind boy who spends hours painting elaborate pictures of endangered animals. He’s also about to be expelled from third grade for smashing his friend in the face. As his son grows more troubled, Theo hopes to keep him off psychoactive drugs. He learns of an experimental neurofeedback treatment to bolster Robin’s emotional control, one that involves training the boy on the recorded patterns of his mother’s brain… With its soaring descriptions of the natural world, its tantalizing vision of life beyond, and its account of a father and son’s ferocious love, Bewilderment marks Richard Powers’s most intimate and moving novel. At its heart lies the question: How can we tell our children the truth about this beautiful, imperiled planet?

Book Synopsis Tertium Organum by : P. D. Ouspensky
Download or read book Tertium Organum written by P. D. Ouspensky and published by e-artnow. This book was released on 2022-01-04 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tertium Organum, or the third canon of thought, gives a new view of the perception of the world. In Tertium Organum, the author offers the shift of the paradigm and speaks of higher consciousness, or the consciousness of the fourth dimension, the domain for the personal development of the human, the ability to control your emotions and actions. The book is inspired by the teachings of Gurdjieff about the Fourth Way. According to this philosophy, there are three ways of self-development: the Way of the Fakir (developing physical body), the Way of the Monk (dealing with the emotions), and the Way of the Yogi (mastering the mind). Yet, there is another way – the Fourth Way that enables a human being to combine all three ways and live in harmony of body, spirit, and mind. Ouspensky applies this theory to the study of time and space, where he defines time as the fourth dimension of space and personality. The book's name is the allusion to the Organum of Aristotle, which laid the basis for the development of science, and the Organum Novus by Francis Bacon, who defined knowledge as only those facts that can be checked empirically.

Download or read book Plato the Teacher written by Plato and published by . This book was released on 1897 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Plato's fame as a philosopher prevents many from reading him far enough to discover that he is also a teacher of the folk. He is one of very few who can speak at times for the masters alone, and at other times so that the "common people hear him gladly." The historic Socrates drew about him all sorts and conditions of men, from the philosopher to the rake, each by the proper magic; and all sorts and conditions of men may yet feel something of his magic through the dialogues of Plato. To help publish the open secret that Plato speaks with simplicity and charm and power to all of us, is the purpose of this book. The Apology is placed first as the best possible introduction to the life and spirit of Socrates. The Euthydemus shows Socrates in contrast with the baser Sophists, the Protagoras in contrast with the superior Sophists. The Symposium and Phdrus show philosophically and dramatically Plato's conception of love as the basis of science and of teaching. This is Plato's most important contribution to Education. The Republic gives Plato's entire scheme of education, as determined by the individual and by his social relations. This is an inexhaustible mine of wisdom for the teacher. The Phdo is introduced partly for its own sake and partly because all Plato's thought about the education of man was determined by his conception of the absolute nature and destiny of man. The introductions to the several dialogues are intended only to give a few suggestive clews which may prove useful to elementary readers. The introduction to the Phdo is an outline for the study of that dialogue"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2012 APA, all rights reserved).
