Book Description
"Literally translated, Eros Over Logos means love over logic. In the context of this book, Eros represents not only love, but also the instinctual energy of the soul and the intelligent consciousness of the body in our resonance with the life-force; whereas Logos is equated with the "neck-up" activities of the mind and its attempt to make sense out of reality through conceptual interpretations. Eros Over Logos was written as a critique of a society that has developed largely through the exaltation of Logos and the repression of Eros-that values logic over love, the head over the heart, man over earth, technology over nature, and modern society over indigenous culture. As such, Eros Over Logos seeks to produce dents, cracks, ruptures and gashes in the consensual fabric of our wounded and wounding society so that a healing, or move towards wholeness, can occur"--Page 4 of cover.

The Power of Divine Eros
Author: A. H. Almaas
Publisher: Shambhala Publications
ISBN: 0834829134
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
Two innovative spiritual teachers show how to use desire and passion—eros—as a gateway to realizing our fullest potential What do desire and passion have to do with our spiritual journey? According to A. H. Almaas and Karen Johnson, they are an essential part of it. Conventional wisdom cautions that desire and passion are opposed to the spiritual path—that engaging in desire will take you more into the world, into egoic life. And for most people, that is exactly what happens. We naturally tend to experience wanting in a self-centered way. The Power of Divine Eros challenges the view that the divine and the erotic are separate. When we open to the energy, aliveness, spontaneity, and zest of erotic love, we will find it inseparable from the realm of the holy and sacred. When this is understood, desire and passion become a gateway to wholeness and to realizing our full potential. Through guided exercises, the authors reveal how our relationships become opportunities on the spiritual journey to express ourselves authentically, to relate with openness, and to discover dynamic inner realms with another person. Through embodying the energy of eros, each of us can learn to be fully real and alive in all of our interactions.

Revolt Against the Madness

Languages : en
Pages : 292
Book Description
Revolt Against the Madness represents a rebellion of the instinctual mind against the madness of modern life. In a world that thrives primarily on the conceptual activities of the brain, we often fail to recognize the deeper concerns of the soul and the intelligent consciousness of the body in our resonance with the life-force. This book was written as a critique of a society that has developed largely through the exaltation of logic and the repression of love-that values the head over the heart, individual achievement over a sense of belonging, man over earth, technology over nature, and modern civilization over indigenous culture. As such, it seeks to produce dents, cracks, ruptures and gashes in the consensual fabric and shared paradigm of our wounded and wounding world so that a healing, or move towards wholeness, can occur.
