Book Description
Ever wonder about the meaning of life? Why we're here? What the Universe is all about? The force that expressed itself through Jesus, Buddha, Krishna, Mohammed, Edgar Cayce and other great avatars who served as channels for what is commonly referred to as God communicates again today as the world begins to enter a period of Spiritual Ascension with a new consciousness and awareness. This force, which refers to itself as Cosmic Awareness, has dictated this book as a set of 144 carefully structured lessons that took over 10 years to create. They are designed to lead you, step by step, from where you are to where you want to be. This amazing information begins with Cosmic Awareness explaining what It is, how the Universe was created, and leads you through birth, childhood, adulthood, magic, sex, death and far beyond into other dimensions - explaining all of the mysterious "Secrets of the Universe" that everyone is looking for the absolute answer of "Who, In Fact, You Really Are."

Everything, Briefly
Author: Thomas O. ScarboroughPublisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1666791474
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 347
Book Description
"As a man thinks, so is he." Personally, and socially, so is he. Yet if this is true, then "as a man thinks" has led us into the thick of global crisis. What exactly is it, about our thinking, that fails us? What has gone so wrong? There are firm reasons why we may hope for new direction. Firstly, we have a new view of the connectedness of all things. Never before has this encompassed so much. It makes a crucial difference to philosophy. Secondly, when we recast philosophy's high-level concepts in more concrete terms, it becomes possible to discuss them without confusion. This is the method of this book. There is much of interest for the theologian, too. Legendary film director Ingmar Bergman once wrote, "What will happen to us who want to believe, but can not?" His "can not" had to do with what Professor Karen Barad calls the "hegemony of physics". Everything, Briefly details why it is impossible, in fact, to believe in a closed universe of cause and effect.
Choosing Models of Society and Social Norms
Author: Adolfo CrittoPublisher: University Press of America
ISBN: 9780761814542
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 370
Book Description
Choosing Models of Society and Social Norms offers an innovative approach to social norms and decision-making that encourages the identification of social norms, along with their causes and consequences. Adolfo Critto points out that social norms condition behavior, but are also conditioned by human decisions. He notes that social norms generally only provide partial and temporary solutions to human needs and problems, so must be critically analyzed in order to understand their relationship to decision making. Critto approaches this relationship through "sacred" (focused on transcendent ends) and "expedient" (focused on efficient means) value orientations, warning that a one-sided focus on either of these orientations leads to inconsistency. He stresses the importance of language, communication, and education, showing how they relate to social norms. Through his analysis, the author provides an understanding of the creation of social norms, what influences them, and the evaluation of those that already exist.

Author: SAPRINPublisher: Zed Books Ltd.
ISBN: 1848137850
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
Structural adjustment programmes are the largest single cause of increased poverty, inequality and hunger in developing countries. This book is the most comprehensive, real-life assessment to date of the impacts of the liberalisation, deregulation, privatisation and austerity that constitute structural adjustment. It is the result of a unique five year collaboration among citizens‘ groups, developing country governments, and the World Bank itself. Its authors, the members of the Structural Adjustment Participatory Review International Network (SAPRIN), reveal the practical consequences for manufacturing, small enterprise, wages and conditions, social services, health, education, food security, poverty and inequality. The stark conclusion emerges: if there is to be any hope for meaningful development, structural adjustment and neoliberal economics must be jettisoned.

* Understanding the basic concepts is the foundation for stable growth/success. * Just imagine your life without knowledge of the basic concepts of life! * Life Concepts is focused on the basic concepts of life that we overlook or are unaware about but are required for happiness/success. * The goal is to derive easy-to-understand concepts (to provide direction/guidance) after gaining an in-depth knowledge of human nature, material and spiritual world, society's beliefs, laws of nature, and science of God. * This also explains the Enlightenment journey of Author to find the ultimate truth/knowledge, while living a normal life within the society. Disclosure: All concepts shared are generic, applicable to every person and practical to implement in life. Author Vishwas Doneria himself has already implemented these concepts in his life (along with helping many people) before he decided to share these concepts with everyone. Irrespective of your present beliefs/conditions: * The goal is to make the individual self-sufficient (i.e., self-help) to understand the concepts of life. * If you believe in God, it's a journey to restore your natural state from the material world to the highest level of the spiritual world (i.e., Liberation). * In general (even if you don't believe in God), it's the journey of experiences/concepts to understand the basics about happiness/success (up to its highest/pure level). * This is also helpful anytime you decide to create your fresh beliefs altogether. * Life Concepts is also helpful to overcome any existing belief/thought that you want to be free for a long time. Author's Belief: Knowledge/Concepts can't be true unless it's applicable forever to every person.
