Book Synopsis The Oneness Hypothesis by : Philip J. Ivanhoe
Download or read book The Oneness Hypothesis written by Philip J. Ivanhoe and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea that the self is inextricably intertwined with the rest of the world—the “oneness hypothesis”—can be found in many of the world’s philosophical and religious traditions. Oneness provides ways to imagine and achieve a more expansive conception of the self as fundamentally connected with other people, creatures, and things. Such views present profound challenges to Western hyperindividualism and its excessive concern with self-interest and tendency toward self-centered behavior. This anthology presents a wide-ranging, interdisciplinary exploration of the nature and implications of the oneness hypothesis. While fundamentally inspired by East and South Asian traditions, in which such a view is often critical to their philosophical approach, this collection also draws upon religious studies, psychology, and Western philosophy, as well as sociology, evolutionary theory, and cognitive neuroscience. Contributors trace the oneness hypothesis through the works of East Asian and Western schools, including Confucianism, Mohism, Daoism, Buddhism, and Platonism and such thinkers as Zhuangzi, Kant, James, and Dewey. They intervene in debates over ethics, cultural difference, identity, group solidarity, and the positive and negative implications of metaphors of organic unity. Challenging dominant views that presume that the proper scope of the mind stops at the boundaries of skin and skull, The Oneness Hypothesis shows that a more relational conception of the self is not only consistent with contemporary science but has the potential to lead to greater happiness and well-being for both individuals and the larger wholes of which they are parts.
Book Synopsis Interpretation, Relativism, and Identity by : Christine M. Koggel
Download or read book Interpretation, Relativism, and Identity written by Christine M. Koggel and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interpretation, Relativism, and Identity: Essays on the Philosophy of Michael Krausz addresses three major philosophical themes: interpretation, relativism, and identity. It does so by focusing on Krausz’s distinctive exploration of the relationship between interpretation and ontology, the varieties of relativism, and the interpretive dimension of identity construction. Throughout the years, Krausz has participated in exchanges between people who embrace opposing views about reality, human selves, and the attachments or detachments between them. In these exchanges, life orientations are at stake as much as conceptual distinctions. These exchanges are reflected in a discussion among renowned scholars in philosophy and literary studies not only on Krausz’s work but also on the significant philosophical implications of key issues for how we understand the human condition, our commitments and values, the meaning of religious and artistic texts, and the way we make sense of our lives and ourselves. The contributors to this volume engage with all of these concerns in their dialogue with Krausz and with one another. The range and versatility of Krausz’s conceptual apparatus can benefit students and scholars with interests in interpretative endeavors, different ontological commitments, and various conceptual priorities and preferences.
Download or read book Law of Oneness written by Jessy Salamone and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Law of Oneness is the program the ancients have intended for us to use for millennia. It’s a way of looking at reality to the way things work in our universe, not how things are played out on our current delusion. The ancients have wanted us all to unlock our potential to grow in consciousness. The Law of Oneness tells us how reality works in all our perception to recognize and break free from all our own potentials and activate our bliss to the reality of oneness. The one reality that has the power to undermine all other realities. From behind bars to beyond the stars — that's how far Jessy Salamone had to go in his personal growth and spiritual awakening to make the true nature of reality understandable for us all. With "Law of Oneness," which he started writing while serving time for drug-related offenses, Jessy succeeds in turning a complicated topic into a narrative that is reader-friendly and engaging. As he explains it, the Law of Oneness is "a universal formula or equation that works in all things and is the ultimate master key to take us to Source." The components of that formula include transcending society-programmed thinking, overcoming insecurities that cause low self-esteem, freeing ourselves from the limits of ego, finding the courage to go forward despite fear or disapproval, identifying our purpose in life, and recognizing that love is the glue holding everything together. Of course, there's much, much more in "Law of Oneness" to experience and enjoy. I recommend you give it a read. Under its influence, your friends, your family, and ultimately your higher self will thank you. -- David L. Gaskill, editor/reviewer
Book Synopsis Living displacement by : Mateja Celestina
Download or read book Living displacement written by Mateja Celestina and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on two cases of resettlement in rural Cundinamarca, Colombia, this book examines how displaced campesinos make sense of their displacement and how displacement shapes their everyday lives. It is based on a ten-month fieldwork employing ethnographic methods working, living and sharing with the displaced and their host. The book calls for a longer time-frame analysis of the phenomenon of displacement, which considers people’s lives both pre- and post- physical relocation. It examines how violence and terror altered people’s sense of place and set off displacement process before they actually moved. It analyses the challenges the displaced are facing in their subsequent place-making endeavours, including the negotiation of social relations, consequences of categorization, engagement with the physical land, and memories of violence to challenge the notion that displacement starts with uprooting and terminates with resettlement or return.
Book Synopsis The Scent of Oneness by : Jean-Marc Mantel
Download or read book The Scent of Oneness written by Jean-Marc Mantel and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-10-04 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This dialogue between Simon Macnab and Jean-Marc Mantel, is an inquiry into the profound nature of the Self, free from cultural or religious distortion. Based upon many years of spiritual research and life experience, their conversation explores the major questions of existence from a fresh and original perspective, allowing the beauty of language and the depth of silence to emerge. The themes addressed integrate ancient wisdom with modern life, weaving together the challenges of ordinary living with the extraordinariness of Consciousness, the personal involvement of the 'I' with the serene detachment of the Self. Thus is revealed how, in every moment, we are invited to awaken to the radiant splendour hidden behind the world of form. A French version of this book is also available.
Book Synopsis Love or Die: Finding Oneness in a Me-First World by : Sandy Meadows
Download or read book Love or Die: Finding Oneness in a Me-First World written by Sandy Meadows and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2018-11-20 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Love or Die delivers a critical look at two false beliefs that contribute to so much of the suffering and violence in the world today: the beliefs that 1) we are separate, and 2) we are incomplete. Once the reader understands that every action he takes affects the Whole—since we are all connected as part of that Whole—he will realize that extinction awaits us if we continue to be self-indulgent at the expense of others or the environment. To destroy any part of nature is to destroy a part of ourselves! We must awaken from our self-destructive ego consciousness, move into higher levels of awareness, and begin functioning with cooperation rather than competition. Failing this, our quality of life will rapidly deteriorate, and humans will go the way of the dinosaurs. We must learn how to love, or we will perish.

Book Synopsis Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics by : Bonnie Honig
Download or read book Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics written by Bonnie Honig and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-15 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political Theory and the Displacement of Politics, originally published in 1993, has been called a founding text of agonism, which treats political contestation not as a regrettably necessary way to correct political imperfections but as a necessary, sometimes joyful feature of democratic life. As Bonnie Honig writes in the preface to this thirtieth anniversary edition, "the agonism that informs this book is democratic: it is committed to shared spaces and relational practices in which diverse groups and individuals set and reset the terms of living together as equals." By rethinking the established relation between politics and political theory, Honig argues that political theorists of opposing positions often treat political theory less as an exploration of politics than as a series of devices for its displacement. She characterizes Kant, Rawls, and Sandel as virtue theorists of politics, arguing that they rely on principles of right, rationality, community, and law to protect their political theories from the conflict and uncertainty of political reality. Drawing on Nietzsche and Arendt as well as Machiavelli and Derrida, Honig instead explores an alternative politics of virtú, which treats the disruptions of political order as valued sites of democratic freedom and individuality.

Download or read book Oneness written by John Greven and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2005-11-24 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What have you been missing? In Oneness, author John Greven invites readers to see the world as it really is, right now, without the mind’s own reflections obscuring its multifaceted mystery. Oneness takes the reader, step by step, to the inescapable reality that is the self. The intent of this book is to look afresh at one’s daily experience, to point to something that the mind may have overlooked. It is not pointing to anything new, anything that you can achieve, or anything you can add to yourself. It is not pointing to the good deeds you have done in your life to emphasize what a wonderful person you must be. It is pointing to something so simple, something so obvious, that when it is pointed out and seen, you wonder how it was ever missed. How could the mind have taken something so obvious for granted? How did the mind so easily toss out the valuable jewel in favor of its reflections? You may have been searching for self realization, enlightenment, the Buddha Mind, God, or some other goal implying the same thing. You may have been searching for many years, or you may just be getting started on a search; Whether you’ve been traveling a path for a while or you’re just taking the first step makes no difference. This book invites you to take a look at the space that has been overlooked, to see what is obvious, and to bring that search to an end—right now.
Book Synopsis Death and the Displacement of Beauty: Foundations of violence by : Grace Jantzen

This book was released on 2004 with total page 401 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The pursuit and love of death has characterized Western culture since Homeric times. Foundations of Violence enters the ancient world of Homer, Plato and Aristotle to explore the genealogy of violence in Western thought. It covers the origins of ideas of death--the "beautiful death" of Homeric heroes-through to the gendered misery of war. Jantzen examines the tensions between those who tried to eliminate fear of death by denying its significance, and those like Plotinus who looked to another world for life and beauty.

Download or read book Glimpses of Oneness written by Lee Temple and published by SHINING GOLDEN SUNS, LLC. This book was released on 2015-04-02 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This overview volume—Glimpses of Oneness— presents a series of brief essays that sketch various facets of my own life’s awakening. These often playful fables share inspiring nuances of the unity perspective, as seen in a daily life con- text that is easily recognizable to all. Each represents a pivotal moment in or aspect of my evolutionary development. Some are experience-based, and are presented more or less chronologically as they appeared during a fifty-year arc of my life’s trajectory. Others chronicle some of the forms that have emerged for me as a direct result of these important oneness experiences: Archetypal sketches, structural diagrams, integrative exercises and techniques, and relational revelations of some of unity’s deeper truths. I also share how I’ve put these gifts into practice as my work has unfolded over the past few decades. My approach here is a-traditional and eclectic. It does not follow any particular lineage, regime, dogma, methodology, or schema. These stories draw upon inspiration from many varied sources, as do my life and this larger body of work. I’ve decided to present these vignettes in an illustrated “short story” format, instead of as a comprehensively integrated treatise on the unity theme—leaving that complexity to the Global Awakening series as a whole. My hope is that these brief, faceted glimpses will work well with our contemporary time constraints and attention spans, and that their diversity of content will effectively engage an equally diverse audience. My life’s teaching has revealed many ways to experience “becoming the mountain” of oneness—from individual internal integration and uniting with the world at large, to uniting various aspects of our world. I’ve found that each way has an important role to play, especially when we turn our attention toward uniting to heal ourselves and our world. The deepest essence of the unity vision that drives the broader and powerful healing impulse for the complete series, and how it came to be seated in me, is in these pages. The implicit and, I hope, inspiring message to readers of this and other volumes is simply this: The insights, inspirations, and innovations that I share here can come to you as easily as they’ve come to me.

Book Synopsis Shelley's Process by : Jerrold E. Hogle
Download or read book Shelley's Process written by Jerrold E. Hogle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1989-01-12 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this set of thorough and revisionary readings of Percy Bysshe Shelley's best-known writings in verse and prose, Hogle argues that the logic and style in all these works are governed by a movement in every thought, memory, image, or word-pattern whereby each is seen and sees itself in terms of a radically different form. For any specified entity or figure to be known for "what it is," it must be reconfigured by and in terms of another one at another level (which must then be dislocated itself). In so delineating Shelley's "process," Hogle reveals the revisionary procedure in the poet's various texts and demonstrates the powerful effects of "radical transference" in Shelley's visions of human possibility.
Book Synopsis Subject to Ourselves by : Anthony Elliott
Download or read book Subject to Ourselves written by Anthony Elliott and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-12-22 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revised edition of Subject to Ourselves, a lively and provocative book that was a leader on its topic in England, uses psychoanalytic theory as the basis for a fresh reassessment of the nature of modernity and postmodernism. Analyzing changing experiences of selfhood, desire, interpersonal relations, culture and globalization, the author develops a novel account of postmodernity that supplants current understandings of "fragmented selves." Subject to Ourselves includes a diverse set of case studies, including the power of fantasy in military violence and war, the debate over sexual seduction in psychoanalysis, and the cultural uses of media and new information technologies. The book will be essential reading for students and professionals of social and political theory, psychoanalytic studies, psychology and cultural studies, as well as those with an interest in the modernity/postmodernity debate. Praise for the First Edition: 'This book not only fills an important gap in the literature, for it summarises a debate that is scattered across a decade of rather difficult texts, but also offers a resolution that is sensible and grounded in the best current thinking. It will be widely read by graduate students, faculty, and professionals in the humanities and social sciences.' Choice 'This is an informative and enjoyable book, which will be of use to students and academics...It is accessibly written and provides useful summaries of the different theories and debates in cultural and psychoanalytic theory. Recommended.' Radical Philosophy
