Book Synopsis On the True Nature of the Soul: Essays for the Seriously Curious by : Robert Colacurcio
Download or read book On the True Nature of the Soul: Essays for the Seriously Curious written by Robert Colacurcio and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-02-16 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of essays written mostly to family members and friends in response to their questions and comments to my other books. These essays were written in over a period of two years and can be read singly, although I have grouped them to try to achieve a cumulative effect. Many people seem satisfied with the childhood information about the soul that they carry into adulthood. Some people just find the subject beyond them, even though the soul is their most intimate companion. Everyone agrees that proper feeding requires accurate information about the animal or person being fed, and yet the spiritual nurture of the soul is not examined with the same critical eye. Much that I have to say, therefore, has to do with the proper feeding of the soul based on a critical examination of the true nature of the soul. As in all my books, I am indebted to the methods of examination from the Buddhas spiritual technology toolkit.

In the year 2021, the author was clinically diagnosed (medicated) for depression, anxiety, hallucinations and dementia, and was considered so ill as to require the services of a home hospice caretaker. None of these diagnoses proved themselves to be valid and true. This book is the author's progress towards what he believes is a more valid and true conclusion.
Book Synopsis While There’S Still Time by : Robert Colacurcio
Download or read book While There’S Still Time written by Robert Colacurcio and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2018-09-24 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays is intended to be a sequel to my previous book, On the True Nature of the Soul: Essays for the Seriously Curious. The basic themes are the illusory nature of time, its swift passing, and ways to make better use of it while we have it. The addendum at the end of each essay is meant to give the reader a way to practically apply the ideas in the essay. Everything I have written, including this book, is a development of two basic ideas: 1) we are here to see through the illusion of our separateness and 2) the soul is the potential to be one with all things. The subject matter of these essays can be succinctly stated as the timeless nature of the soul incarnate as it struggles to realize that nature in time.
Book Synopsis All the Whirl’s a Stage by : Robert Colacurcio
Download or read book All the Whirl’s a Stage written by Robert Colacurcio and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-03-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about the perils and pitfalls of the busy mind. Busyness not only challenges our mental and physical health; there are also the subliminal messages that come hidden within the concession to the demands of busyness. This book asks the reader to view the whirl going on in the world today as though it were a stage set, and you are the director as well as one of the actors in the drama. The stage set device is a way to get a fresh and, hopefully, a refreshing perspective on the whirligig merry-go-round that is the busy whirl happening on the world stage today. The movement of the book takes the reader from an unreflective absorption in the whirl of time to a standpoint of spacious clarity, a place that allows one to see clearly what is really going on.
Book Synopsis Reflections on Aesthetic Judgment and other Essays by : Benjamin Tilghman
Download or read book Reflections on Aesthetic Judgment and other Essays written by Benjamin Tilghman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-11-28 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Benjamin Tilghman has been a leading commentator on analytic philosophy for many years. This book brings together his most significant and influential work on aesthetics. Spanning a period of thirty years and covering topics in aesthetics from literature to painting, the collection traces the development of Tilghman's two principal themes; a rejection of philosophical theory as a way of resolving problems about our understanding and appreciation of art and the importance of the representation and presentation of the human and human concerns in art. Tilghman is profoundly influenced by the philosophy of Ludwig Wittgenstein and his work is informed throughout by his conception and practice of philosophy. Written with exceptional clarity and with many references to original work in both painting and literature, this collection will be an invaluable resource not only for professional philosophers but for those working in the arts generally, art historians, critics and literary theorists.
Book Synopsis Essays and Letters by : Friedrich Hölderlin
Download or read book Essays and Letters written by Friedrich Hölderlin and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2009-08-27 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of Germany's greatest poets, Johann Christian Friedrich Hölderlin (1770-1843) was also a prose writer of intense feeling, intelligence and perception. This new translation of selected letters and essays traces the life and thoughts of this extraordinary writer. Hölderlin's letters to friends and fellow writers such as Hegel, Schiller and Goethe describe his development as a poet, while those written to his family speak with great passion of his beliefs and aspirations, as well as revealing money worries and, finally, the tragic unravelling of his sanity. These works examine Hölderlin's great preoccupations - the unity of existence, the relationship between art and nature and, above all, the spirit of the writer.

Download or read book The Soul written by J. P. Moreland and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2014-02-14 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a culture in which science is believed to hold the answers to every question, spiritual realities like the soul are often ignored or ridiculed. We are told that neuroscience holds the key to explaining every aspect of human behavior. Yet Christian philosopher J. P. Moreland argues that Scripture, sound philosophical reasoning, and everyday experience all point to the reality of an immaterial soul. Countering the arguments of both naturalists and Christian scholars who embrace a material-only view of humanity, Moreland demonstrates why it is both biblical and reasonable to believe humans are essentially spiritual beings. He also describes the various components of the soul and how Christians can nurture their souls as disciples of Christ. Moreland shows that neuroscience and the soul are not competing explanations of human activity, but that both coexist and influence one another.

Download or read book Essays written by Wallace Shawn and published by Haymarket Books. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of “deceptively simple, profoundly thoughtful, fiercely honest” essays on art, life, and politics by the acclaimed actor and playwright (Howard Zinn, author of Political Awakenings and Indispensable Zinn). Whether writing about the genesis of his plays, such as Aunt Dan and Lemon; discussing how the privileged world of arts and letters takes for granted the people who serve our food and deliver our mail; describing his upbringing in the sheltered world of Manhattan’s cultural elite; or engaging in a fascinating interview with Noam Chomsky, Wallace Shawn has a unique ability to step back from the appearance of things to explore their deeper social meanings. In these essays, Shawn grasps the unpleasant contradictions of modern life and challenges us to look at our own behavior in a more honest light. He also finds the pathos in the political and personal challenges of everyday life. With the same sharp wit and remarkable attention to detail that he brings to his critically acclaimed plays, Shawn invites us to look at the world with new eyes, the better to understand—and change it. “Full of what you might call conversation starters: tricky propositions about morality . . . politics, privilege, runaway nationalist fantasies, collective guilt, and art as a force for change (or not) . . . It’s a treat to hear him speak his curious mind.” —O Magazine “Lovely, hilarious and seriously thought provoking, I enjoyed it tremendously.” —Toni Morrison, winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "T. R. Hummer grew up in the Deep South and planned to become a musician before he met poetry. This musical influence is visible in his work: he often discusses poetry together with music (and sometimes the other way around), and his career has included both writing and performance. The present volume, Available Surfaces, focuses on the art of making both poetry and music and on the concept of "making" as well. Hummer draws on childhood experiences ("A Length of Hemp Rope"), adult experiences ("Hotel California"), experiences as a poet ("Available Surfaces"), and experiences as an explorer of unworldly spaces ("The Hive," "Brain Wave and the End of Science Fiction"). Hummer has published ten volumes of poetry with presses including Louisiana State University Press and the University of Illinois Press. His work has appeared in two anthology volumes published by Simon & Schuster and Cengage and in two Pushcart Prize anthologies. He has edited the Kenyon Review, the Georgia Review, and the Cimarron Review, among other journals. "--

Book Synopsis How Should One Read a Book by : Virginia Woolf
Download or read book How Should One Read a Book written by Virginia Woolf and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2022-06-02 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Virginia Woolf dreamed of the Day of Judgment. The "great conquerors and lawyers and statesmen" come to receive their rewards - crowns, laurels, names carved on marble. But, when he sees people coming with books under their arms, God turns to Peter and says: "Look, those need no reward. We have nothing to give them here. "They have loved reading." And this is the essence of her essay - sheer love for the written word: a joy in exploring the thoughts and imaginings of the author. If you sometimes get bogged down in a book, Woolf has produced the perfect self-help manual and motivational guide to reading. If you enjoyed 'How Should One Read a Book?', try 'How to Read a Book: The Classic Guide to Intelligent Reading', by Mortimer J Adler. "To read a novel is a difficult and complex art," says Virginia Woolf. Adeline Virginia Woolf (1882-1941) made an impact during her life, but her fame grew in the decades after her death. The English writer helped launch the use of stream-of-consciousness in literature and was a pioneer of 20th century modernism. Arguably her greatest legacy, though, comes from how her writing helped to inspire the feminist movements of the second half of the 20th century. Along with members of her family and other authors, Woolf helped found the Bloomsbury Group. After she married the political theorist and author Leonard Woolf in 1912, they went on the found the Hogarth Press. Virginia also had a long relationship with the writer Vita Sackville-West. The affair featured in the 2018 movie Vita and Virginia', starring Gemma Arterton and Elizabeth Debicki, He best-known works include the novels 'Mrs Dalloway', 'To the Lighthouse' and 'Orlando'.
