Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thoughts in Silence (Observations & Insights) Silence is one of the core requirements, an often unmentioned yet vitally necessary ingredient in the creation of poetry and writing in general. Silence allows the writer to receive the ideas, images, and emotions, which seem to arrive from nowhere but actually arrive from within, or beyond, from the field of energy, and essence that surrounds us, like a shroud. In this section, the poet shares poems that came through that silence, that shroud, at various points during his lifetime. In life, it is rare that we pause to take stock, to ask ourselves directly - who we are, why we are, and what we are. Such thoughts are often tossed aside, cast of with lines like - don’t be silly, what are you talking about, that’s crazy talk - of course I know who I am, what I am, and why. Actually, most of us do not, we have never been that honest with ourselves or sat in silence, taken inventory, asked ourselves what we feel, what we believe, and why. In a way, it is true, it is crazy talk, after all we are born, we develop our beliefs, we hold to those beliefs firm (generally) and we live our lives without inventories conducted in silence - or Emerson, read within season . Thoughts in Silence (Observations & Insights) is a book in which the Poet pauses, opens the door, and allows us to enter in, to read, to watch, to listen and finally - to consider for ourselves what we feel about, or think about what the poet has written and what response, if any we have from having gone through this experience. The invitation is sent, the door is open, enter - if you wish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Handbook of Culture and Creativity is a collaborative effort to provide readers with an in-depth and systematic inquiry into the cultural processes of creativity and innovation, as well as the creative processes of cultural transformation. As the editors acknowledge, creativity emerges from dialogical interaction with cultural imperatives, norms, and artifacts, but culture also evolves and transforms through a generative process fueled by creativity. In order to illuminate nuanced insights on the complex culture-creativity nexus, this volume is organized into four broad sections: reciprocal relationships, socio-cultural contexts, diversifying experiences and creativity, and policy and applied perspectives. Edited by Angela K.-Y. Leung, Letty Kwan, and Shyhnan Liou, this cogent volume features cutting-edge evidence and research, and lays the groundwork for pursuing a new science for integrating the study of culture and creativity.

This book was released on 2020-06-22 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Silence is a key pedagogical issue in language education. Seen by some as a space for thinking and reflection during the learning process, for others silence represents a threat, inhibiting target language interaction which is so vital during second language acquisition. This book eschews stereotypes and generalisations about why so many learners from East Asia seem either reluctant or unable to speak in English by providing a state-of-the art account of current research into the complex and ambiguous issue of silence in language education. The innovative research included in this volume focuses on silence both as a barrier to successful learning and as a resource that may in some cases facilitate language acquisition. The book offers a fresh perspective on ways to facilitate classroom interaction while also embracing silence and it touches on key pedagogical concepts such as teacher cognition, the role of task features, classroom interactional approaches, pedagogical intervention and socialisation, willingness to communicate, as well as psychological and sociocultural factors. Each of the book’s chapters include self-reflection and discussion tasks, as well as annotated bibliographies for further reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practice Silence and Meditation talks about how space helps us get silence, the benefits of silence, the effect of silence in the progress of meditation, thoughts of various religions on meditation, how to become a thought observer or witness and the silence, meditation, peace of mind and state of Samadhi and the internal live force called prana energy in Hinduism and its uses. Silence brings us peace. Mahatma Gandhi and Buddha follow silence. Indian yogis are also advised to practice silence to improve mediation quality and get inner peace. Concentrating on your breathing during meditation helps in bringing space to your lives. You become conscious of your own breath and are in the present. Conscious breathing stops the process of thinking and remains aware and meditative. Prana energy is “name” in Hindu. It’s called “Chi” in Chinese and in Hebrew, it’s called “Ruash”. This energy is a vital force for life. When increased in the human body, it brings peace and good quality of meditation and, ultimately, the state of Samadhi. It is also used for spiritual healing in many countries. China invented acupuncture, in which normal power is required by the human body and enters through fine pins for healing or curing sickness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a study of Virginia Woolf's lifelong preoccupation with silence and the barrier between the sayable and the unsayable. Using a wide range of thinkers from Kierkegaard to Kristeva and Derrida, Laurence demonstrates convincingly that Woolf was the first modern woman novelist to practice silence in her writing and that, in so doing, she created a new language of the mind and changed the metaphor of silence from one of absence or oppression to one of presence and strength. It suggests new directions for Woolf criticism.

Book excerpt: Attention, self-consciousness, insight, wisdom, emotional maturity: how Zen teachings can illuminate the way our brains function and vice-versa. When neurology researcher James Austin began Zen training, he found that his medical education was inadequate. During the past three decades, he has been at the cutting edge of both Zen and neuroscience, constantly discovering new examples of how these two large fields each illuminate the other. Now, in Selfless Insight, Austin arrives at a fresh synthesis, one that invokes the latest brain research to explain the basis for meditative states and clarifies what Zen awakening implies for our understanding of consciousness. Austin, author of the widely read Zen and the Brain, reminds us why Zen meditation is not only mindfully attentive but evolves to become increasingly selfless and intuitive. Meditators are gradually learning how to replace over-emotionality with calm, clear objective comprehension. In this new book, Austin discusses how meditation trains our attention, reprogramming it toward subtle forms of awareness that are more openly mindful. He explains how our maladaptive notions of self are rooted in interactive brain functions. And he describes how, after the extraordinary, deep states of kensho-satori strike off the roots of the self, a flash of transforming insight-wisdom leads toward ways of living more harmoniously and selflessly. Selfless Insight is the capstone to Austin's journey both as a creative neuroscientist and as a Zen practitioner. His quest has spanned an era of unprecedented progress in brain research and has helped define the exciting new field of contemplative neuroscience.

Book excerpt: Silence is long-established as a spiritual discipline amongst people of faith. However, its examination tends to focus on depictions within texts emerging from religious life and the development of its practices. Latterly, feminist theologians have also highlighted the silencing of women within Christian history. Consequently, silence is often portrayed as a solitary discipline based in norms of male monastic experience or a tool of women’s subjugation. In contrast, this book investigates chosen practices of silence in the lives of Christian women today, evidencing its potential for enabling profound relationality and empowerment within their spiritual journeys. Opening with an exploration of Christianity’s reclamation of practices of silence in the twentieth century, this contemporary ethnographic study engages with wider academic conversations about silence. Its substantive theological and empirical exploration of women’s practices of silence demonstrates that, for some, silence-based prayer is a valued space for encounter and transformation in relationships with God, with themselves and with others. Utilising a methodology that proposes focusing on silence throughout the qualitative research process, this study also illustrates a new model for depicting relational change. Finally, the book urges practical and feminist theologians to re-examine silence’s potential for facilitating the development of more authentic and responsible relationality within people’s lives. This is a unique study that provides new perspectives on practices of silence within Christianity, particularly amongst women. It will, therefore, be of significant interest to academics, practitioners and students in theology and religious studies with a focus on contemporary religion, spirituality, feminism, gender and research methods.

Book excerpt: In Thundering Silence Thich Nhat Hanh presents the early teachings of the Buddha on not becoming so attached to his teachings that we don’t see reality clearly anymore and become stuck in notions and ideologies, however noble they may be. These teachings can liberate us from the prisons of our mental constructions and allow us to enjoy life fully and be a resource for others. Near the end of his life, the Buddha declared, "during forty-five years, I have not said to encourage his disciplines not caught by words or ideas. Thich Nhat Hanh calls this "the roar of a great lion, the thundering silence of a Buddha". The attitude of openness, non-attachment from views, and playfulness offered by the Buddha in this sutra is an important door for us to enter the realm of Mahayana Buddhist thought and practice. In Thich Nhat Hanh's commentaries he makes use of such classic Buddhist allegories, as The Raft is not the Shore, and The Finger Pointing at the Moon and demonstrate the practical applications of these teachings in everyday life. This revised edition contains new material based on Thich Nhat Hanh’s more recent teachings. The new material makes commentaries on the Sutra on Knowing the Better Way to Catch a Snake more accessible and broader in scope.

Book excerpt: Explore the Shadows of the American Justice System Delve into the unspoken transgressions deeply embedded in the very fabric of America's legal landscape. "America's Silent Crimes: What Justice Doesn't Speak Of" is a gripping exploration of the systemic failures and silent miscarriages of justice that plague our society. This compelling narrative sheds light on the untold stories and overlooked victims hidden behind the façade of legal fairness. With meticulous research, the book uncovers the Foundation of Silence, where the evolution of the justice system has given rise to selective enforcement and societal blindness. Witness the heart-wrenching accounts of the Victims without a Voice, whose struggles against socioeconomic disenfranchisement are overlooked by crime reports and media narratives. Experience the chilling reality of the Illusion of Fair Trial, where rushed decisions and the jury selection process reveal a skewed path to justice. Understand the perverse preference for Punishment over Rehabilitation, which perpetuates the cycle of incarceration and hampers the successful reintegration of the formerly incarcerated into society. Reexamine the controversial War on Drugs, unveiling the intertwined roots of policy and prejudice that give rise to mandatory minimums and the mistreatment of addiction as a criminal, rather than health, issue. Peer behind the blue curtain in Policing the Unseen, scrutinizing when law enforcement dynamics shift from protection to aggression. The haunting section on The Specter of Mental Health reveals the harrowing consequences of criminalizing mental illness and the horrific reality of solitary confinement. Embark on a journey through the chapters that place you in the thick of critical issues; witness the Juvenile Justice: The Silent Future, and confront the gendered nuances pervading the legal system in The Gendered Gavel. Unearth the seldom-discussed realm of White Collar Silence and enter the complex domain of The Digital Shadow to confront cybercrime and the privacy paradox. In its final act, the book boldly envisions a reformed system where the Breaking of Silence echoes across communities, demanding action and accountability. "America's Silent Crimes: What Justice Doesn't Speak Of" is an essential read for those who dare to confront the uncomfortable truths of our justice system and seek a path toward genuine reform.

Book excerpt: There’s an epidemic of leadership failure—whether something as small as a meeting, or as large as implementing enterprise wide change. Leaders know that sinking feeling when a gap emerges between themselves and the groups they most need to engage with. Leaders and business schools are looking in the wrong places for the cause. What holds most leaders back, as if their foot is always on the brake, is their failure to engage, and gain alignment. This book shows the reasons why. Leaders rarely recognise that: Shaping group behavior is describable as a process, which they can learn. Instead, they unconsciously fall into relationship patterns influenced by early family experiences. Informal relationship patterns have a dramatic effect on results, which is why birds in flight manage to alter course without bumping into each other. Leadership and collaboration are primarily a matter of principles and process, and not personality and content alone. If leaders master the process, they achieve consistent results. This book reveals the leadership levers to release the power of relationships for exceptional participation, alignment and results in organizations. It enables leaders to mine the brilliance that often lies dormant and untapped within their organizations. Readers will have the principles and tools to go beyond the agenda, truly engage with those around them, and release untapped capacities within their organizations. These qualities and skills will inspire associates and employees.

Telepathy is thought transference of mental energy from one being to another. Humans use telepathic energy constantly. We are aware the voice in our mind is never silent. We are unaware of our capability to use telepathic energy with intent. We use it every day and often do not recognize our oldest form of communication. Animals vocal cords, due to their physical structure, were not able to attain formed language as humans did. They continue to express themselves telepathically or with behavior when humans deny to acknowledge their inner ability to hear them telepathically. Discover the widening scope of using telepathic communication in our daily life. We would discover there are no secrets in the thread of life! Just imagine using telepathy to converse with all creation on earth, in heaven or other dimensions. The messages received are the wisdom of the ages and encompass the full spectrum of eternity. Telepathically conversing with sentient beings in all dimensions is funny, surprisingly delightful and compassionate. The silent voices impart wisdom and guidance in every moment of our everyday life. Our mind seeks a place for discovery in curiosity. The silent voices and hidden wisdom within us holds the key to answers from all dimensions. Journey the joy and hidden wisdom in the silent voices, in their words and prayers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An insider's guide to the principles of Chan – or Chinese Zen – this book gives unfiltered access to the kind of illuminating experience with a Zen Master that is usually only available to a few fortunate practitioners. Having originated in China in the 6th century, Chan Buddhism is now growing rapidly in popularity, much of which can be attributed to its open, accepting attitude and its focus on a choice of meditative practices to best suit each individual. With the bulk of the text made up of edited transcripts of the teachings at two major retreats led in Wales in 1989 and 1995 by the then-head of the movement, Master Sheng Yen, this jewel of a book offers a rare glimpse inside both the ancient teachings and the contemporary practice of Chan. Words like 'enlightenment' rarely pass the lips of Master Sheng Yen. Instead, he makes it clear that his retreats are for the development of practice, to realize one is not in control of one's own mind, to discover how to train one's mind in awareness, to calm the mind, and to replace ignorance with insight. Commentary by Sheng Yen's much respected Western disciple John Crook gives full context to the teachings and provides a fascinating account of the practical aspects of a retreat of this nature, including the meditative practices of watching the breath, counting the breath and of 'Silent Illumination' that lies at the heart of Chinese Zen. In so doing the atmosphere of such a retreat is powerfully evoked, especially when Crook recounts the experiences and impacts of his own years of practice.
