Book Synopsis Anne Carson: Antiquity by : Laura Jansen
Download or read book Anne Carson: Antiquity written by Laura Jansen and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-10-07 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From her seminal Eros the Bittersweet (1986) to her experimental Float (2016), Bakkhai (2017) and Norma Jeane Baker of Troy (2019), Anne Carson's engagement with antiquity has been deeply influential to generations of readers, both inside and outside of academia. One reason for her success is the versatile scope of her classically-oriented oeuvre, which she rethinks across multiple media and categories. Yet an equally significant reason is her profile as a classicist. In this role, Carson unfailingly refuses to conform to the established conventions and situated practices of her discipline, in favour of a mode of reading classical literature that allows for interpretative and creative freedom. From a multi-praxis, cross-disciplinary perspective, the volume explores the erudite indiscipline of Carson's classicism as it emerges in her poetry, translations, essays, and visual artistry. It argues that her classicism is irreducible to a single vision, and that it is best approached as integral to the protean character of her artistic thought. Anne Carson/Antiquity collects twenty essays by poets, translators, artists, practitioners and scholars. It offers the first collective study of the author's classicism, while drawing attention to one of the most avant-garde, multifaceted readings of the classical past.
Book Synopsis Spiritually Incorrect Enlightenment by : Jed McKenna
Download or read book Spiritually Incorrect Enlightenment written by Jed McKenna and published by . This book was released on 2009-11 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spiritually Incorrect Enlightenment Isn't One Kind of Enlightenment - It's the Only Kind THE MARK OF A TRUE MASTER is that he can express a subject of the utmost complexity with uncanny simplicity. Jed McKenna is such a master, and spiritual enlightenment is his subject. His first book, Spiritual Enlightenment: The Damnedest Thing, was an instant classic and established him as a spiritual teacher of startling depth and clarity. Now, his second book, Spiritually Incorrect Enlightenment, takes us on a fascinating tour of the enlightened state - what it is and what it's not, who's there and who's not, how to get there and how to get somewhere better. Delightful surprises abound, including the dramatic unveiling of perhaps the greatest spiritual masterpiece of all time - long hidden in plain view and well known to all. Whitman, Melville, Thoreau, Mark Twain and U.G. Krishnamurti all appear, and a student from the first book returns to share her Spiritual Autolysis journals. Also surprising are the author's gentle efforts to guide the reader away from enlightenment toward a more desirable and accessible state. Failing to fetch me at first, keep encouraged, Missing me one place, search another, I stop somewhere, waiting for you. - Walt Whitman Jed McKenna's books aren't for everyone. They're for people who are tired of the spiritual merry-go-round and ready to confront the unadorned reality of the awakening process. If you like your teachers with all the spiritual trimmings and trappings, Jed may not be right for you, but when you're ready to jump off the merry-go-round and begin your journey, Jed McKenna is the guy you want to see standing there, waiting for you.
Book Synopsis The Concept of Enlightenment by : Swami John
Download or read book The Concept of Enlightenment written by Swami John and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Concept of Enlightenment is an attempt to describe the indescribable - consciousness without an object. It reveals how most religions and spiritual activities are in fact just adding more and more momentum to the thought realm matrix, the sphere of internal dialog most of us believe is reality. Only by discovering the silence of "No-Mind" can one be freed from the mind's constant self-referencing mechanism that creates the illusion of a separate self. In embracing silence, one encounters the possibility of accessing the energy necessary to trigger transformation, awaken from the dream, and discover "what is."
Book Synopsis Jed Mckenna's Theory of Everything by : Jed McKenna
Download or read book Jed Mckenna's Theory of Everything written by Jed McKenna and published by Wisefool Press. This book was released on 2013-04 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are programmed from birth to believe that our existence is an unsolvable riddle, but if we make an honest effort, we discover that mystery itself is the riddle. Not just what is the big mystery, but why is there any mystery at all? And what if there isn’t? What if the Mysterium Tremendum is just an internal belief without any external counterpart? What if the answers to life’s biggest questions were all hidden in plain sight? “If man will strike, strike through the mask! How can the prisoner reach outside except by thrusting through the wall?” Herman Melville Those interested in striking through the mask will welcome a theory of everything that makes sense, doesn’t rely on religious or scientific chicanery, and can be easily understood. And those familiar with Jed McKenna and the Enlightenment Trilogy will know that it’s not just a theory.
Book Synopsis Apocalypse Now? by : Duncan B. Forrester
Download or read book Apocalypse Now? written by Duncan B. Forrester and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How may people of faith respond wisely, constructively, and courageously to the challenges of a time of terror? How might religious reasons in public debate be a force for reconciliation rather than violence and hatred? In a world in which religious arguments and religious motivations play such a huge public role, there is an urgent responsibility for interpreting what is happening, and engaging with religious views which are commonly regarded as alien, threatening or dangerous. In Apocalypse Now?, Duncan Forrester argues that disorders and atrocities which include the Gulag, the Holocaust, 9/11, the Afghanistan and Iraq wars, and the Tsunami disaster have shown us that we stand not at the end of history but in the midst of an apocalyptic age of terror which has striking similarities to the time in which Christianity was born. Moving between two times of terror - the early Centuries of Christianity, and today - Forrester asks how religious motivations can play a positive role in the midst of conflicts and disasters. Reading the 'signs of the times' to try to understand what is happening in today's age of terror, Forrester argues that there are huge resources in the Christian tradition that can be productively deployed for a more constructive and faithful response. We are at a turning point - this is a book which should be read.

Download or read book After the Absolute written by David Gold and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-09 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Rose was an unlikely Zen master: A rugged, plainspoken, ornery West Virginian, he scraped out a living raising goats, planting crops and painting houses. But Richard Rose had a secret: Having once vowed to "find the Truth or die trying," Rose experienced a cataclysmic spiritual awakening at age 30 that thrust him into "Everything-ness and Nothing-ness," or what he called "the Absolute." The experience left him with only one earthly desire: to do anything, for anyone, on a similar quest for Truth. David Gold was an unlikely student: An arrogant, ambitious and egotistical law-student, David Gold only agreed to meet the "enlightened hillbilly" in the hopes of showing him up. But when Rose turned the tables by seeing right through Gold and painting a devastatingly accurate picture of the fears and obsessions that ruled his life, a humbled Gold found himself hungry to know more. Thus began a remarkable 15-year adventure part spiritual odyssey, part legal thriller in which death threats, corrupt politicians, and life-threatening cancer run parallel to glimpses of the divine and extraordinary manifestations of timeless wisdom.
Download or read book Dreamstate written by Jed McKenna and published by Wisefool Press. This book was released on 2016-08 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If life is but a dream, to what do we awake? The central premise of Dreamstate: A Conspiracy Theory, is the admittedly ridiculous but incontrovertibly true assertion that the universe does not exist. This is something you can understand conceptually, like watching a documentary about Antarctica, or experientially, like moving to Antarctica. There’s also a related phenomenon where you fall asleep watching the documentary and wake up in the frozen wasteland. That’s gotta be weird, but the truth is that you’re asleep in a barren wasteland dreaming that you’re not, so that’s where waking up gets you.

Book Synopsis Soul Awakening by : Barry Martin Snyder
Download or read book Soul Awakening written by Barry Martin Snyder and published by . This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Has the world ever been more in need of the peace, love, and stillness of the soul? The discord, violence, and destruction that are all too common the world over attest to the soul-forgetting that is epidemic among humanity. As integral aspects of the Divine, we are designed to live in peace, joy, and harmony. But asleep to our true, essential nature, we create dis-ease, limitation, and suffering. Thus, the crises that surround us cannot be fixed out there, for their fundamental cause lies within. Only a radical reorientation of consciousness, a fundamental inner shift from ego to soul, will enable us to find our way through the perfect storm of challenges that lie before us, individually and collectively. For more than two decades, the authors of Soul Awakening have facilitated direct experiences of the inner divinity that is our true Self. This book relates the journey that brought them into this capacity, and summarizes all that they have learned about what expedites connecting with and living from the soul. Guided inner journeys into the soul realm enable readers to directly experience the luminous, loving presence of the true Self, and access its wise counsel and healing power. The simultaneous process of transcending ego and awakening to the soul is humanity's next evolutionary step. As a guide to the journey, Soul Awakening provides potent evolutionary support for all phases of the process. Because it relates actual experiences of awakening -- those of the authors, as well as their clients during soul-awakening sessions -- Soul Awakening contains a living transmission of the energy and consciousness of the essential Self. The stories presented here center around the archetypal passages and initiations in the journey of awakening, along with the consciousness tools the authors used to meet the challenges they faced. Vicariously experiencing these transformational journeys allows readers to "download" the holographic process of awakening and experience it within their own consciousness. The evolutionary stimulation in Soul Awakening is relevant to beginners on the spiritual path as well as those who have deeply explored the spiritual world for decades. Many who have meditated for years have not yet experienced a direct, palpable immersion into their indwelling divinity. Soul Awakening provides guided inductions into the soul realm within, as well as the domain of the vast, multidimensional Self. Utilizing these inner processes over time facilitates the fundamental, all-important shift from identifying with the ego to knowing we are a vast, multidimensional soul. As the inner luminosity of the soul comes forth, we birth the Luminous Self that has lived within us forever, waiting to be rediscovered and embodied. With a Foreword by Kiara Windrider, Soul Awakening is the first book in the Birthing the Luminous Self trilogy. Subsequent volumes to be released during 2011 are entitled Agents of Grace and We Are the Awakening Christ.

Book Synopsis The Scottish Enlightenment by : Alexander Broadie
Download or read book The Scottish Enlightenment written by Alexander Broadie and published by Birlinn. This book was released on 2007 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scottish Enlightenment was one of the greatest intellectual and cultural movements that the world has ever seen. Its legacy in philosophy, history, science, music, art, architecture, economics, and many other disciplines cannot be overstated. The New Town of Edinburgh would be inconceivable without the doctrines of Enlightenment, equally so would the writings of Karl Marx or the US Constitution. To this day, the doctrines of Enlightenment are still quoted and misquoted. There can be few countries that have produced such a galaxy of talent in so small a compass. David Hume and Adam Smith merely stand as two of the best known.Yet this is the first book for the general reader to consider in its totality the achievement of this most astonishing period of Scottish history, not simply the thoughts, ideas, and people who lived then, but also the creations that were animated by that thought. This is a book not simply about ideas but also about those ideas made flesh and about the new traditions thus created that still animate and inspire the world and the Scotland of today.
Book Synopsis Haunted Universe by : Steven Norquist
Download or read book Haunted Universe written by Steven Norquist and published by . This book was released on 2010-05-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "NEWLY REVISED EDITION" Haunted Universe is a journey into dark realms, an uncompromising presentation of the real cost of Awakening. Where other books have promised that the path to Enlightenment is one of joy, bliss and self discovery, this book makes no such claims. Haunted Universe does not attempt to gloss over, but actually emphasizes what those who embark on the path of Enlightenment must face about themselves and their lives before they dare make an incautious leap into a state that demands a confrontation with humanity's greatest fear-the loss of self.
