Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: False Bodies, True Selves explores the phenomenon of growing numbers of people in western society and beyond completely embedding their sense of identity in their appearance. Unlike other books which address either theoretical models of appearance-focused identity struggles or explore lived experiences of appearance-based battles, False Bodies delves into both. Importantly, the spiritual aspects of what it is to become enemies with one's body are given centre stage in the context of Donald Winnicott's theory of the true Self and the false Self. The book begins by looking at some of the myths, superstitions and fairy tales related to mirrors before moving on to western society's current obsession with appearance, which seems to have been compounded by the mass media. After looking at some of the most common manifestations of appearance-focused anguish including eating disorders and body dysmorphia, it begins to unpick the possible underlying meanings beneath such struggles with a particular emphasis on issues of a systemic nature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many monks and gurus teach a path to enlightenment that is long and complicated. It also requires an austere life in many cases. But what about the ordinary person? Does everyone seeking enlightenment need to become a monk? In Break Through to Your True Self, author Michael Tavella uses his personal experiences to help others seeking a path to enlightenment. Outlining the steps that worked for him, Tavella provides the answers to why we become enlightened, who we really are, what our purpose on the earth is, what happens after enlightenment, and why many teachers tell us to live in the moment. He facilitates a discussion through the questions of: • What should I do? • How should I act? • Who can help me? • What is the end goal? If you’re on a path to knowledge, Break Through to Your True Self offers practical help by giving examples of the real-life experiences of an enlightened man.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the traditional answer to the question of man’s freedom on earth - the answer that holds that for man to be free he needs to be made to become a perpetual subject. And dismisses it. This work submits that man is not born to be a subject but a free man. Because it contends that, contrary to Rousseau’s thoughts, man is born in chains and that it is these chains that he must learn to break to be free. It subsequently submits that for man to be able to break his chains he needs to be made to become his true self and shows how to make man become his true self.

This book was released on 2019-08-06 with total page 446 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In times of increasing pressure on schools and teachers, it is essential that teachers are equipped to understand the emotional and relational factors in learning and teaching. Vulnerable and disaffected children need understanding and nurture rather than reactive management, which can easily exacerbate their difficulties, leaving them unheard and defensive, and even undermine teacher confidence and effectiveness. Understanding, Nurturing and Working Effectively with Vulnerable Children in Schools offers a comprehensive and accessible exploration of the difficulties faced by teachers and schools from at-risk and disaffected children, including repeated trauma and insecure attachment patterns. The book describes how a thoughtful ‘relationship-based’ approach can both alleviate such difficulties and offer a second chance attachment experience, enabling students to discover it might be safe to let down their all consuming defences a little; thus freeing them to begin to learn. It offers: practical suggestions in note form – making them easy to use, refer to and assimilate; numerous case examples and teacher friendly theoretical background material; a wealth of ideas for ways forward, including differentiated responses to children in the light of their particular patterns, developmental stages and unmet needs. Written from extensive professional experience, this is an essential handbook and resource book for trainers, schools, teachers and school staff, and also for educational psychologists and those in children’s services working with vulnerable children in pre and primary schools, as well as those in special schools and units.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Journeys into Emptiness traces the lives of three famous religious seekers and their quests for personal transcendence. Dogen, a thirteenth-century Japanese Zen master, experienced emptiness in wordless meditation - the practice of zazen that spread in time from the Eastern world to the West. Thomas Merton was a twentieth-century Catholic monk whose experience of personal homelessness brought him to explore the tension that lies between solitude and community. Carl Jung, raised by a pious father and a psychologically unbalanced mother, was driven to understand the structure of the psyche, including the male and female elements that exist in every human person." "Robert Jingen Guinn provides wise and compassionate portraits of these emblematic figures. Each of them, in his own way, had to experience emptiness, going beyond consciousness to discover his own personal truth, whether that was rooted in Buddha-nature, God or the unconscious. This "going beyond" became a path to encountering their own unique selves and a deeper sense of life."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc. All Rights Reserved

This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A major criticism of Hegel's philosophy is that it fails to comprehend the experience of the body. In this book, John Russon shows that there is in fact a philosophy of embodiment implicit in Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit. Russon argues that Hegel has not only taken account of the body, but has done so in a way that integrates both modern work on embodiment and the approach to the body found in ancient Greek philosophy. Although Russon approaches Hegel's Phenomenology from a contemporary standpoint, he places both this standpoint and Hegel's work within a classical tradition. Using the Aristotelian terms of 'nature' and 'habit,' Russon refers to the classical distinction between biological nature and a cultural 'second nature.' It is this second nature that constitutes, in Russon's reading of Hegel, the true embodiment of human intersubjectivity. The development of spirit, as mapped out by Hegel, is interpreted here as a process by which the self establishes for itself an embodiment in a set of social and political institutions in which it can recognize and satisfy its rational needs. Russon concludes by arguing that self-expression and self-interpretation are the ultimate needs of the human spirit, and that it is the degree to which these needs are satisfied that is the ultimate measure of the adequacy of the institutions that embody human life. This link with classicism - in itself a serious contribution to the history of philosophy -provides an excellent point of access into the Hegelian system. Russon's work, which will prove interesting reading for any Hegel scholar, provides a solid and reliable introduction to the study of Hegel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Das Ziel des Sammelbandes ist es, in der aktuellen bioethischen Debatte neue Impulse zu setzen, da sie augenscheinlich mit ihrem Personenbegriff noch keine zufriedenstellenden Ergebnisse erreicht hat. Die, auf den ersten Blick, nonpersonale buddhistische Ethik mit ihrem annatā-Konzept könnte auf die drängenden bioethischen Fragen und Probleme neue Antworten finden. Sie steht deshalb im Zentrum dieses Bandes. Andere Beiträge beschäftigen sich mit den Themen Leben, Körper/Leib, Person und Selbst und stellen indische, afrikanische und westliche Standpunkte vor. So kann aufgezeigt werden, wie reich die Debatte an kulturell wie theoretisch unterschiedlichen Perspektiven ist. Schließlich werden noch die Feldforschungs-Ergebnisse aus Sri Lanka, Ladakh und Dharmasala des durch die DFG finanzierten Projekts präsentiert, womit erst die ambitionierte Aufgabe des Bandes erfüllt werden konnte, die festgefahrene Diskussion in der Bioethik mit alternativen Blickwinkeln wiederzubeleben. Mit Beiträgen von Stephan Grätzel, Paul Nnodim, Patricia Rehm-Grätzel, Dirk Solies, Tobias Schlicht, Michael von Brück, Jens Schlieter, Eberhard Guhe, Mark Siderits, Alfred Weil, Jonardon Ganeri, Volker Caysa, Matthias Koßler und Stephan Schaede.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is especially aimed at practitioners of Bhakti yoga who perform “Japa” mantra meditation on the holy names of God, but for one reason or another have not experienced the inner transformation they were expecting. The admission that I am not happy when chanting, or even worse, chanting is drudgery I have to do, can be a painfully shocking thing to admit to oneself and others. It takes honesty and courage to acknowledge that you have not yet realized the truth about yourself and continue to feel dissatisfied and unhappy with your life of chanting. If you find yourself described here in these words, then this book is for you.

Book excerpt: Winner of the 2007 Gradiva Award and the 2006 Goethe Award for Psychoanalytic Scholarship The definitive biography of one of the most engaging figures of British psychoanalysis.Both gifted analyst and generational bete noire, M. Masud R. Khan (1924–1989) exposed through his candor and scandalous behavior the bigotry of his proponents turned detractors. The son of a wealthy landowner in rural India (now Pakistan), Khan grew up in a world of privilege that was radically different from the Western lifestyle he would adopt after moving to London. Notorious for his flamboyant personality and, at first, widely acknowledged as a brilliant clinician, Khan was closely connected to some of the most creative and accomplished individuals of his time, including Donald Woods Winnicott, Anna Freud, Robert Stoller, Michael Redgrave, Julie Andrews, Rudolph Nureyev, and many more. Khan’s subsequent downfall, which is powerfully narrated in this biography, offers interesting insights not only into Khan’s psychic fragility but into the world of intrigues and deceptions pervasive in the psychoanalytic community of the time. In telling the story of this provocative man, Linda Hopkins makes use of unprecedented access to a complete copy of Khan’s unpublished Work Books, which are quoted extensively. Additionally, she conducted innumerable interviews with Khan’s peers, relatives, and analysands in order to provide an in-depth and balanced account of Masud Khan as a talented and deeply conflicted individual.
