Download or read book Barbara Jordan written by Max Sherman and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A collection of speeches by the much-admired congresswoman on the importance of ethics, the threat of tyranny, faith and politics, and more. Through her career as a Texas senator, US congresswoman, and distinguished professor at the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs, Barbara Jordan lived by a simple creed: “Ethical behavior means being honest, telling the truth, and doing what you said you were going to do.” Her strong stand for ethics in government, civil liberties, and democratic values still provides a standard around which the nation can unite in the twenty-first century. This volume collects several major speeches that articulate her most deeply held values. They include: “Erosion of Civil Liberties,” a commencement address delivered at Howard University on May 12, 1974, in which Jordan warned that “tyranny in America is possible” “The Constitutional Basis for Impeachment,” Jordan’s ringing defense of the US Constitution before the House Judiciary Committee investigating the Watergate break-in Keynote addresses to the 1976 and 1992 Democratic National Conventions, in which Jordan set forth her vision of the party as an advocate for the common good and catalyst of change Testimony in the U.S. Congress on the confirmation of Supreme Court nominee Robert Bork and on immigration reform Meditations on faith and politics from two National Prayer Breakfasts Acceptance speech for the 1995 Sylvanus Thayer Award presented by the Association of Graduates of the United States Military Academy, in which Jordan challenged the military to uphold the values of “duty, honor, country” Accompanying the speeches are context-setting introductions by editor Max Sherman as well as the eloquent eulogy Bill Moyers delivered at Jordan’s memorial service, in which he summed up her remarkable life and career by saying, “Just when we despaired of finding a hero, she showed up.”

Book Synopsis The Enclosed Garden of the Truth by : Kieron D. Moore
Download or read book The Enclosed Garden of the Truth written by Kieron D. Moore and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-04-02 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sanai's book The Enclosed Garden of the Truth, a treatise on God and the seekers journey to Him, forms one part of three highly influential early Sufi works. The others being Attar's Conference of the Birds and Rumi's Masnavi. Sanai's work is considered to be the first to use poetry to express religious, spiritual and mystical ideas. Rumi acknowledges both Sanai and Attar as having a major influence on his own poetry and stated 'Attar is the soul and Sanai the two eyes'. But for all its influence the book was largely unknown to the English speaking world until Stephenson researched and translated the work culminating in the edition of 1910. His translation, largely an academic work, printed in prosed paragraph form. The main objectives in the present copy has been firstly to return and clarify the text within its original poetic form; secondly to interpret Sanai's work within its original religious, mystical, spiritual and historical framework; and lastly to present a book that, hopefully, represents an accurate rendition of Sanai's work in such a way that present day readers will find it as inspiring as many have since it was first written down. The I.A.S. (International Association of Sufism) recently featured this book in their quarterly journal Sufism (volume 17 N.2) book review section and said this: - Kieron D. Moore has rendered a true service in resurrecting and editing the M j Stephenson translations of Hakim Sanai's The Enclosed Garden of the Truth. Moore attempts to reinterpret Stephensons translation, particularly restoring the poetic form of the original. In addition he adds and revises references and research notes making use of modern research tools not available to Stephenson. He also revises the placement of section and lines he believes better following the general feel and flow of Sanai's poetry. However the most important service Moore renders is by bringing this work back to the attention of Sufi scholars, practitioners, and the general public. Considered one of the masterpieces of Persian Sufi Literature, Sanai has been compared to and has influenced Jalalu'd Din Rumi ( in fact, Rumi describes himself as walking in the wake of Sanai and Attar. The breath of Sanai's spiritual commentary is remarkable and forms a teaching of Sufism by the poet-sage. While it is beyond the scope of this book review to delve deeply into the work itself, the following passage is representative of his thought: The temporal world He has given of His bounty to the body; the spiritual world as a glory to the soul; that both inner and outer man may receive food. This book is a kind of spiritual food to be savored by those who want to know more about the inner meaning of Sufism. Review by Salim Matchette IAS
Book Synopsis Islamic Gardens and Landscapes by : D. Fairchild Ruggles
Download or read book Islamic Gardens and Landscapes written by D. Fairchild Ruggles and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-12-30 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western admirers have long seen the Islamic garden as an earthly reflection of the paradise said to await the faithful. However, such simplification, Ruggles contends, denies the sophistication and diversity of the art form. Islamic Gardens and Landscapes immerses the reader in the world of the architects of the great gardens of the Islamic world, from medieval Morocco to contemporary India. Just as Islamic culture is historically dense, sophisticated, and complex, so too is the history of its built landscapes. Islamic gardens began from the practical need to organize the surrounding space of human civilization, tame nature, enhance the earth's yield, and create a legible map on which to distribute natural resources. Ruggles follows the evolution of these early farming efforts to their aristocratic apex in famous formal gardens of the Alhambra in Spain and the Taj Mahal in Agra. Whether in a humble city home or a royal courtyard, the garden has several defining characteristics, which Ruggles discusses. Most notable is an enclosed space divided into four equal parts surrounding a central design element. The traditional Islamic garden is inwardly focused, usually surrounded by buildings or in the form of a courtyard. Water provides a counterpoint to the portioned green sections. Ranging across poetry, court documents, agronomy manuals, and early garden representations, and richly illustrated with pictures and site plans, Islamic Gardens and Landscapes is a book of impressive scope sure to interest scholars and enthusiasts alike.

Download or read book Living Presence written by Kabir Edmund Helminski and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1992-06-01 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is an excellent book that explains spiritual principles and how to carry them into everyday life . . . Highly recommended."—Library Journal Sufism is a centuries-old spiritual psychology leading to presence in life. Presence is our capacity to be whole in the moment, in alignment with our deepest wisdom. With unusual clarity, this book describes how presence is different from ordinary habits of mind, and how it can be developed. Drawing on the words of the great Sufi, Rumi, as well as traditional material and personal experience, this book integrates the wisdom of Sufism with the needs of contemporary life. Living Presence offers a wisdom that is both universal and practical. It shows how we can bring spirituality and psychology into a balanced system that honors and awakens the soul. “I am pleased to give Living Presence a high recommendation: It is sober, thoughtful, and well worth deep reflection. Helminski is concerned with out interactions with each other, with cultivating love and a desire to serve the Highest through serving each other . . . a valuable emphasis in a culture like ours that tends to think of spiritual development as special and solitary experiences.”—Noetic Sciences Review by Charles Tart, Ph.D.
