Book Synopsis The Rediscovery of Wisdom by : D. Conway
Download or read book The Rediscovery of Wisdom written by D. Conway and published by Springer. This book was released on 2000-07-30 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By reconstructing it and tracing its vicissitudes, David Conway rehabilitates a time-honoured conception of philosophy, originating in Plato and Aristotle, which makes theoretical wisdom its aim. Wisdom is equated with possessing a demonstrably correct understanding of why the world exists and has the broad character it does. Adherents of this conception maintained the world to be the demonstrable creation of a divine intelligence in whose contemplation supreme human happiness resides. Their claims are defended against various latter-day scepticisms.

Download or read book The Villa written by Nora Roberts and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2002-03-26 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts exposes a proud family’s deadly secrets in this passionate tale of two Napa Valley rivals... PR executive Sophia Giambelli loves her job and has never worried about competition. For three generations, her family’s wines have been world-renowned for their quality. But things are about to change at Villa Giambelli. Tereza, the matriarch, has announced a merger with the MacMillan family’s winery—and Sophia will be assuming a new role. As a savvy businesswoman, Sophia knows she must be prepared for anything...but she isn’t prepared for Tyler MacMillan. They’ve been ordered to work together very closely, to facilitate the merger. Sophia must teach Ty the finer points of marketing—and Ty, in turn, shows her how to get down and dirty, to use the sun, rain, and earth to coax the sweetest grapes from the vineyard. As they toil together, both in and out of the fields, Sophia is torn between a powerful attraction and a professional rivalry. At the end of the season, the course of the company’s future—and the legacy of the villa—may take an entirely new direction. And when acts of sabotage threaten both the family business and the family itself, Sophia’s quest will be not only for dominance, but also for survival.
Download or read book Sophia written by Caitlin Matthews and published by Quest Books. This book was released on 2013-09-20 with total page 478 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anyone interested in the feminine face of God throughout the ages will find Sophia an illuminating experience. Caitlin Matthews' scholarship connects us to past, present, and future in the very depths of our femininity. ----Marion Woodman, Jungian analyst and author of Bone: Dying into Life. Sophia, or "wisdom" in Greek, has been revered in many forms throughout history--from the Dark Goddess of ancient Anatolia; to her Egyptian, Greek, Celtic, and Cabalistic manifestations; to her current forms as Mary and the orthodox St. Sophia. In the Gnostic Gospel of Thomas, Sophia sits with God until the creation. Then she falls into matter and becomes manifest in every atom, permeating all things "like the sparks that run through charcoal," as Matthews says. While God is "out there," the Goddess is "in here"-- the mother-wit of practical inspiration and compassion at the heart's core. This definitive work comprehensively establishes a realistic Goddess theology for Westerners in the twenty-first century: grounding spirituality in daily life and the natural world; learning to work playfully and play seriously; ending the gender war to enjoy sacred marriage.
Download or read book Eyes of Sophia written by Donna May and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2007-04-26 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eyes of Sophia is a true love story which confirms the multi-dimensional nature of our existence. This story shows us that we really do co-create our lives in concert with a loving and organizing Divine Presence, Sophia, which speaks to us through our hearts. Too often we are easily intimidated by the authority and advice of the outer world and cease to trust these tender feelings which offer us continual and perfect guidance. The magical tapestry of events we experience when reading Eyes of Sophia is given credence by a series of extraordinary photographs and we are blessed with the revelation that, indeed, we can attain our hearts' desires. "This book is an extraordinary account by two extraordinary people. Given the premise that Sophia's world lies hidden and invisible within this one the continual synchronicities abounding in this true story make sense, if not serving as proof of its existence. Though the account is extremely personal it touches the universal and thus becomes meaningful to anyone reading it. It's Donna's loving and enthusiastic eye that reveals it and Alan's charming and rational acceptance that gives it form. I marvel that I had the privilege of playing a small part in this unusual drama!" -Alice O. Howell Author of The Web in the Sea and The Dove in the Stone "You and Donna have experienced, certainly at a feeling state, at least one other cognitive band of this total reality and you appear to have some space-time cognitive data in the form of your pictures to confirm that something extra-ordinary was happening." -William A. Tiller, PhD Author of Science and Human Transformation (written after viewing the photographs, September, 1995) "This is a truly spiritual book, in which the presence of divine love allows the experience of human love to flourish. It can be read as a romantic story like Bridges of Madison County, but here the romance is allowed to flourish and lead to a sustained relationship, and there is an experience of divine grace as well as human passion." -Harvey Honig Jungian Analyst "Exceptionally written by two brilliant souls, one who--although already knowing she was on her perfect path--still continued to question the symbols along the way; while the other's eyes were slowly beginning to focus on truth and authenticity instead of the superfluous. Each overlooked the external to follow the twisting, winding path that was filled with intent and purpose. It is a rarity to find individuals so willing to lovingly examine and absorb the many messages the rest of us ignore as we go about our lives on 'auto pilot.' A wonderful, refreshing true love story that affirms the closer we get to our own authentic selves, the more blissful our joy--joy that flourishes in the knowledge that there are no accidents and that cause never was the reason." -Kimberly Largent Managing Editor The Health Strategist Eyes of Sophia is a love story...a grand and wondrous love story about the authors, and their relationship with Sophia, the Spirit in their hearts. Further, Donna May and Alan Chien have given us a story about synchronicity and destiny...and the ability to listen to, and the courage to follow our hearts. Abundant synchronicities (events that on the level of cause and effect are amazing coincidences) brought Donna May and Alan together, and together, and together...each time deepening their relationship. Included in the synchronicities are a series of intriguing photographs which give credence to the story. Eyes of Sophia is a transformational story that teaches the creative use of metaphor in understanding the relevance and significance of coincidences. Creatively woven together in the events in this story are spiritual metaphors of the Wizard of Oz, the Tree of Life, Kabbala and the dynamics of the life-force and chakras, including the splenic chakra. One important lesson Eyes of Sophia teaches us is that we must listen to our own hearts...and not yield to the rules that others inflict upon us; we must be true to ourselves. We must stay attuned to our heart and listen to what it is telling us and keep our thoughts and the images in our mind centered in that. Further, we all have tremendous creative imagination working for us at all times: It's so important to understand that we use the same power of imagination every moment and it will create in accordance with our intenet and beliefs! We can't afford not to pay attention to the quality of our beliefs, motives, and what we look for and how we picture it! Eyes of Sophia tells a magical, miraculous and marvelous story of finding love and Spirit. Donna May and Alan Chien are blessed...and teach us that we too, can achieve what is in our hearts...a dream come true! Richard Fuller Senior Editor Metaphysical Reviews
Book Synopsis Jesus: Miriam's Child, Sophia's Prophet by : Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza
Download or read book Jesus: Miriam's Child, Sophia's Prophet written by Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Jesus: Miriam's Child, Sophia's Prophet Elisabeth Schüssler Fiorenza makes a unique contribution to two quite different discussions of Jesus the Christ. On the one hand, she looks at biblical christology from a critical feminist perspective in the tradition of liberation theology. On the other, she examines the feasibility of a feminine christology by considering such problems as Christian anti-Judaism, ideological justification of domination, religious exclusivism and the formation of patriarchal identity. Re-imagining the Jesus movement in a feminist key transcends the boundaries set by history, gender and doctrine. By assessing various Jesus traditions and interpretations in terms of whether they can engender liberating visions for today, Schüssler Fiorenza seeks to challenge and transform a Christianity dominated by masculinity and exclusivist theological frameworks so that it offers a vision of justice and well-being for all, the central image in which is the reign, the coming world, of God. This Cornerstones edition features a new extended introduction which takes into account the developments in the field since the work was originally published in 1994.

Download or read book Sophia written by Christopher Pramuk and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2009-10-01 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While numerous studies have celebrated Thomas Merton's witness as an interfaith pioneer, poet, and peacemaker, there have been few systematic treatments of his Christology as such, and no sustained exploration to date of his relationship to the Russian Sophia" tradition. This book looks to Thomas Merton as a "classic" theologian of the Christian tradition from East to West, and offers an interpretation of his mature Christology, with special attention to his remarkable prose poem of 1962, Hagia Sophia. Bringing Merton's mystical-prophetic Vision fully into dialogue with contemporary Christology, Russian sophiology, and Zen, as well as figures such as John Henry Newman and Abraham Joshua Heschel, the author carefully but boldly builds the case that Sophia, the same theological eros that animated Merton's religious imagination in a period of tremendous fragmentation and violence, might infuse new vitality into our own. A study of uncommon depth and scope, inspired throughout by Merton's extraordinary catholicity. Christopher Pramuk, PhD, is assistant professor of theology at Xavier University in Cincinnati, Ohio. He is the author of two books and numerous essays, and the recipient of the Catholic Theological Society of America's 2009 Catherine Mowry LaCugna Award. "

Because the European vampires are on the move. And if Canada falls, the rest of North America could follow . . . D. B.
