Book Synopsis Kabunianism & Pneumasomatic Sickness by : S. T. Janetius
Download or read book Kabunianism & Pneumasomatic Sickness written by S. T. Janetius and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-19 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Cordillera mountain ranges in the Philippine Northern Luzon Island are the home of indigenous people collectively known as Kaigorotan (Igorot peoples). These indigenous communities have a homogeneous identity in sociocultural traits and religious beliefs. The traditional religion has its own cosmic worldview. The supreme God is often identified with the sun and lives in space, referred to as Kabunian. Western influences arrived in the Cordillera in the early 20th century when the Catholic missionaries started schools and hospitals as a means of spreading Christianity. They unscrupulously prohibited all traditional cultural practices of the people. This paved the way for Museumization of Kabunianism. Today only a small minority of people practice pure traditional native religion and traditional cultural practices; the majority follow a conflated or mixed version of Christianity or Kabunianism. The author favors the unprecedented term Kabunianism to classify the unorganized religion of this indigenous people and, their major concept of sickness as pneumasomatic sickness.

Book Synopsis Delusive Healers of India by : S. T. Janetius
Download or read book Delusive Healers of India written by S. T. Janetius and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2013-02-19 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delusive healers are traditional healers who covertly perceive the sickness to be psychosomatic and induce cure using bizarre modes, techniques and practices by deceiving the patients. Apparently it is similar to some forms of religiomagical healings, the healers diagnose the sickness as psychosomatic and delude the clients by enacting some removal of physical objects from the body to alleviate pain, induce cure. They show enhanced empathy, trust, and client-healer relationship. Studying these Delusive Healers facilitate indigenous therapeutic counselling and culture-specific psychotherapy in India, thus pave the way for indigenous psychology in the subcontinent.
Book Synopsis Visions in Mahabharata and Bible by : Janetius
Download or read book Visions in Mahabharata and Bible written by Janetius and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-02-19 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious tolerance is a must today. Majority of the problems in our society is caused by religious fanaticism. One of the reasons for religious fanaticism is ignorance. Since we do not know about other religion fully, we often show our animosity in holding the claims to the truth of one religion as superior to other religion. Therefore religious fanaticism starts from supremacism. Every religion is culture-specific and it only reflects the geographical, political and cultural worldview of a particular time and people; even the applicability of the original doctrines and, the customs and rituals associated with every religion is questionable in the modern times. If that is the case, why do people fight in the name of religion? The famous Indian tale 'The Blind men and an Elephant' goes like this: A king called few blind men to the palace, and asked them to describe an elephant. When each blind men felt a part of the elephant, they started to describe the animal: the elephant is like a pot claims a blind man who felt the elephants' head; it is like a winnowing basket, asserted another who touched the ear; oh... no, it is like a ploughshare argued another blind man who happen to touch the tusk, a pillar declared another etc... etc.... The blind men cannot reach an agreement and started to fight among themselves. The book narrates visions in two major scriptures. Mahabharata and Bible - the sacred books of two different religions belong to the very constitutive structure of the society in which these religions originated. For Mahabharata, human being's initiative takes them to the supreme reality. However, for the Semitic culture, it is not so, it is God who takes the initiative and the contact with the Supreme Being is a grace (free gift of God). This is a real contrast. One begins from below (human beings) the other comes from above (God).But both have the same objective, the vision of God. Both explain this objective with myths, fables, folklores, stories etc. etc. We have here two ways of approaching the one reality. Both are valid within their different cultural contexts. The battle against religious fanaticism of all hues that threatens our global society today is not an easy task. Communal peace and harmony is possible if people can overcome their narrow mindedness and selfish motives and above all acquire clear knowledge about the philosophy of different religions; an enhanced education on religion and religious doctrines are needed.
Download or read book Paths Beyond Ego written by Roger Walsh and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1993-09-15 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a clarion call for an expanded vision of human possibilities. In it, many of the best thinkers of our day ask us to renew the perennial search for self-knowledge and to discover the deeper meaning of our lives. For this, they offer the transpersonal perspective -- which extends beyond consciousness in its myriad forms, including altered states, yoga, dreams, and contemplation. This marriage of psychology and science with the spiritual traditions has borne ripe fruit: the transpersonal vision, which offers a uniquely generous and encompassing view of human nature. The fifty essays that make up Paths Beyond Ego apply transpersonal thinking to individual growth, psychotherapy, meditation, dreams, psychedelics, science, ethics, philosophy, ecology, and service. The result is an integrated and comprehensive overview of the many dimensions of human experience. In clear, accessible writing, the contributors suggest that our potential for enhancing human abilities is much greater than previously suspected and that our tools for this grand undertaking are widely available today. The transpersonal vision offers great hope for the future -- and links us to the timeless wisdom of the ages.

Book Synopsis Art, Culture and Gender by : Dr S T Janetius
Download or read book Art, Culture and Gender written by Dr S T Janetius and published by . This book was released on 2016-10-14 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Art, Culture, and Gender issues reflect the human psyche down through the history. The identity of a person comes from family, community, country, land, culture and spirituality. One can't understand an individual removed from that. India is a multicultural, tolerant society with its complex traditions, beliefs, and thinking, which is distressed by various socio-political and religious elements today. However, the glorious India is admired for its tolerance and multiculturalism. Due to pressure groups and fanatic outfits emerging in the society, India is slowly losing its original social outlook and tend to move towards a bigoted society. Multiculturalism is a beauty, as we see different flowers in a garden. The fascist ideology that is often propagated by fundamentalist groups spoils this beauty in the Indian society. In this regard, India needs some dynamic personalities who can propagate, educate and inculcate the glorious values of humanism and work for tolerance and harmony.

Download or read book Shaman's Path written by Gary Doore and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 1988-04-12 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ancient path of shamanism is alive and well in contemporary society. Physicians, therapists, and spiritual seekers are among those who are rediscovering the shaman's methods—such as drumming, visualization, and storytelling—as effective tools for healing and self-transformation. In this collection of previously unpublished writings, leading figures of the neo-shamanism movement explore the origins and practices of shamanism and its relevance to the modern world. Are shamanic healing methods compatible with Western medicine? Can shamanism help in crises or difficult life transitions? Is it relevant to the search for meaning amid the wasteland of industrialization and runaway technology? Will it help in healing the planet and preventing ecological catastrophe or nuclear holocaust? These are just a few of the questions addressed by Michael Harner, Joan Halifax, Stanley Krippner, Serge King, Jeanne Acheterberg, Stanislav Grof, and twelve other contributors to this comprehensive anthology.
Book Synopsis The Sources of Husserl’s 'Ideas I' by : Andrea Staiti
Download or read book The Sources of Husserl’s 'Ideas I' written by Andrea Staiti and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2018-05-07 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite an ever-growing scholarly interest in the work of Edmund Husserl and in the history of the phenomenological movement, much of the contemporaneous scholarly context surrounding Husserl's work remains shrouded in darkness. While much has been written about the critiques of Husserl's work associated with Heidegger, Levinas, and Sartre, comparatively little is known of the debates that Husserl was directly involved in. The present volume addresses this gap in scholarship by presenting a comprehensive selection of contemporaneous responses to Husserl's work. Ranging in date from 1906 to 1917, these texts bookend Husserl's landmark Ideas for a Pure Phenomenology and Phenomenological Philosophy (1913). The selection encompasses essays that Husserl responded to directly in the Ideas I, as well as a number of the critical and sympathetic essays that appeared in the wake of its publication. Significantly, the present volume also includes Husserl's subsequent responses to his critics. All of the texts included have been translated into English for the first time, introducing the reader to a wide range of long-neglected material that is highly relevant to contemporary debates regarding the meaning and possibility of phenomenology.
