Path of Life
Author: graf Leo Tolstoy
Publisher: Nova Publishers
ISBN: 9781590334850
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Path of Life was the last book written by Lev Tolstoy. Although the great nineteenth century Russian novelist is known in English-speaking countries for his major novels: War and Peace; Anna Karenina; and Resurrection. He is less known for his numerous religious writings, which present a challenging and original point of view. These works have been undervalued, as evidenced by the fact that Path of Life is translated here fully in English. The reader will notice that Tolstoy anticipated many of the ideas presented in contemporary books on spirituality, such as the observation that our thoughts determine our lives. Tolstoy began to write this book in 1910, the last year of his life, when he was 82 years old. Given that he began the book in January and completed it in October of the same year, one would think the writing went quickly; but it only seems that way. Tolstoy actually had been developing the themes presented in Path of Life for the last thirty years of his life. In Path of Life Tolstoy defines how to find continuous happiness in life and how to die without fear. In presenting his views, he cites his own ideas and includes many quotations from an eclectic collection of anci

The Path to Mass Evil
Author: Michael Hardiman
Publisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 100060411X
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 232
Book Description
On the Southern border of the United States in 2018, the decision was made to implement a separation policy among refugees and migrant families arriving at the border – and so a group of government employees left their homes, bidding farewell to their families as they went to work, and began to separate hundreds of children from their families, forcefully taking them to holding centres. Developing Hannah Arendt’s analysis of the banality of evil, The Path to Mass Evil demonstrates how the most educated, sophisticated and advanced societies in human history have the potential to descend into profound inhumanity and in the extreme can turn into enormous killing machines, implementing mass murder on a vast scale. Suitable for undergraduates and graduates in philosophy, sociology, psychology and religion, Michael Hardiman reveals how traditional understandings of morality fail to grasp how ordinary citizens become collaborators and engage in a range of levels of evildoing. He also highlights the necessity of confronting this evil in the increasingly divided and antagonistic world in which we find ourselves today.

Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The Path of Eternal Truth begins from a simple introduction to the spiritual path. We then suddenly find ourselves in the midst of deeply rooted realizations of the representational consciousness and scientific firsts ranging from constructive memory to butterfly effect to mental time travel, until we confront the baffling maximum of human potential, and how we can rise into heightened awareness through consciousness. The second and the third part contain all the 423 teachings given by Siddhartha Gautama himself after his enlightenment, written by his disciples to Dhammapada, then unraveled by annotations with deep insight yet in fittingly simple and contemporary language.

Guide to the Sabbat
Author: Justin Achilli
Publisher: White Wolf Games Studio
ISBN: 9781565042636
Category : Fantasy games
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
What are we? The Damned childer of caine? The grotesque lords of humanity? The pitiful wretches of eternal hell? We are vampires, and that is enough. I am a vampire, and that is far more than enough. I am that which must be feared, worshipped and adored. The world is mine -- now and forever. No one holds command over me. No man. No god. No prince. What is a claim of age for ones who are immortal? What is a claim of power for ones who defy death? Call your damnable hunt. We shall see whom I drag screaming to hell with me. The Guide to the Sabbat examines the Sabbat exhaustively from the antitribu, or "anti-clans, " that populate its ranks, to the terrifying Disciplines they use, to their methods of waging war on the Camarilla and Antediluvians alike. This book also explores the Sabbat's progress in its war effort, chronicling the Cainites' inexorable spread across the East Coast and back to their usurped territories in the Old World.

The Right Path
Author: Tom Beck
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1640790470
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 179
Book Description
The Right Path is the life story of a reluctant messenger. The author writes of his lifelong supernatural experiences and how those gifts developed over his lifetime. The author tells of how his prophetic visions and discerning of spirits has grown and changed over the years. He writes of the visits from spirits and angels that he has seen here on earth. He also writes of his near death experience and encounters in heaven with friends and relatives as well as angels. He also tells of his meeting Jesus and how he did not want to return to earth. Finally, the author explains his visions for the future, which are horrifying as well as hopeful. The author sees a new age dawning in a much-changed world and the United States. The author sees the return of Jesus Christ after much turmoil and strife. The population will decline by two-thirds and afterward; the United States will be no more as will most of the existing countries in the world. Those people who remain will find a kinder, gentler world without evil, albeit a hard life scrambling for the necessities of life. God will once again be foremost in people's life. The author is hopeful that people will read what he has written and turn back to God before it is too late.

An Introduction to the Sufi Path
Author: Anab Whitehouse
Publisher: Bilquees Press
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
By the Grace of God, my spiritual guide knew far, far more than what I have heard him say on any given occasion. Unfortunately, I have forgotten far, far more than what I remember of what has been related to me by him. Moreover, I have written far less than what I remember of what he taught me. The result of this funneling process is the present book – An Introduction to the Sufi Path. Everything that is good and correct in this book comes, by the Grace of God, through my shaykh or spiritual teacher who was willing to accept me as a reclamation project. Everything that is incorrect in An Introduction to the Sufi Path comes from my own shortcomings and ignorance. The material contained within An Introduction to the Sufi Path is intended to stimulate reflection concerning a variety of themes that are important to spiritual life in the midst of everyday life. God willing, the content given expression through the different chapters constitutes -- both individually as well as collectively -- a Sufi perspective. However, one does not have to be on the Sufi path or inclined to that path in order to engage the material in this book. Anyone with an interest in spirituality and mysticism will find, God willing, an abundance of themes within the boundaries of this work that are able to form the seeds of contemplative reflection for any faith background.
