Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A readable, accessible version of the ancient classic primer on the practice of yoga--interpreted by a contemporary Tantric yoga master. The Yoga Sutras is Patanjali’s classic text on how to experience oneness (samadhi) within yoga practice. Serious yoga students want to bring the wisdom of the Sutras to their practice but often find the text impenetrable and difficult to relate to. Here, yogi and Tantric master Alan Finger offers an interpretation of the Sutras that is clear and immediately relevant—and he shows contemporary practitioners that samadhi is something that they can experience here and now. Yoga is a process of spiritual evolution, and samadhi is as natural as breathing and available to all, because it is our true nature. Viewed through a Tantric framework, Finger shows us how the Sutras describe the yogic process that both leads us to the experience of samadhi and allows us to weave the wisdom and grace of that experience back into our everyday life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Francis Bacon (1561–1626)—English statesman, jurist, and philosopher—created a blueprint for the spiritual and scientific rebirth of humanity. Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925)—Austrian philosopher and seer—had the same ideal but proposed a path of knowledge that could hardly be more different from Bacon’s. Bacon and Steiner were remarkable characters, but even more remarkable is the clash that took place between them across a gap of three centuries. According to Steiner, Bacon was programmed by his spiritual handlers, from ancient times and through previous incarnations, to become the chief architect of an inhuman, diabolical technological society. Could this really be so, or was Steiner radically mistaken? Is it possible that Steiner was motivated as much by animus as by insight? Bacon, of course, didn’t say anything about Steiner, but he did provide a great deal of material that bears on the questions raised by the Austrian. In tackling these problems, Keith Francis deals with issues that seem never to have been confronted by Steiner’s followers. He gives historical contexts for both men, reports on their scientific philosophies, and to illuminate the whole situation, takes the reader on a journey from the pre-Socratic thinkers of ancient Greece to the post-Newtonians of modern Europe, visiting Arabian philosophers and European scholastics along the way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would you decide to experience the worst and anticipate the best when you qualify for the best of both worlds? Unfortunately many churches have persuaded a large portion of the Christian population to accept the prevailing thought process that pain and suffering is from God and is a Christian's way of life. This mindset has created a spiritual tsunami in the Christian community, and it is causing many Christians to experience hell on Earth. Salvation provides us with an equal opportunity to experience the best of both worlds. The benefits of salvation and Christianity are clearly laid out in the Bible, and the way to obtain these benefits is as important. In this book, Minister W. Pippens provides practical guidelines on how to receive and enjoy our earthly benefits of salvation and consequently avoid an earthly hell. Find out more in Living in Hell on Your Way to Heaven.

Book excerpt: In this work, Alexander Rosenthal Pubul presents a broad examination of the ancient philosophical question: “What is the good life?”, while addressing how the liberal arts can help us to answer this question. Greek philosophy distinguished between the “noble” (what is good in itself), from the merely “useful” (good for something else). From thence follows the distinction between the liberal arts which pursue such noble goods and the mechanical arts which are only instrumental. For Aristotle, the most noble and excellent good is wisdom itself. Hence the theoretic life devoted to the love of wisdom for its own sake –philosophy - is the highest and the most excellent. This work theorizes the origins of modernity in a rebellion against this Greek conception resulting in a complete inversion of the classical hierarchy. Sir. Francis Bacon reconceiving the purpose of knowledge as power, enthroned technology over philosophy and the liberal arts. The unfolding of the modern Baconian revolution progressively sidelines the liberal arts, as practical economic and technical utility become the standard of value. In assessing this problem, the book engages in a capacious journey across disciplines like philosophy, history, art, politics, and science. It is also a veritable tour across the Western intellectual tradition including Socrates, Plato, Aristotle, Cicero, Seneca, Thomas Aquinas, Bacon, Descartes, Hume, Kant, Nietzsche, Dewey, Berdyaev, Einstein, and Heidegger. It pleads the urgent need to preserve the humanizing cultural ideals of the ancient classics against the modern tyranny of utility and the dangers of a new barbarism.

This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From before the Civil War until his death in 1882, Ralph Waldo Emerson was renowned—and renounced—as one of the United States' most prominent abolitionists and as a leading visionary of the nation's liberal democratic future. Following his death, however, both Emerson's political activism and his political thought faded from public memory, replaced by the myth of the genteel man of letters and the detached sage of individualism. In the 1990s, scholars rediscovered Emerson's antislavery writings and began reviving his legacy as a political activist. A Political Companion to Ralph Waldo Emerson is the first collection to evaluate Emerson's political thought in light of his recently rediscovered political activism. What were Emerson's politics? A Political Companion to Ralph Waldo Emerson authoritatively answers this question with seminal essays by some of the most prominent thinkers ever to write about Emerson—Stanley Cavell, George Kateb, Judith N. Shklar, and Wilson Carey McWilliams—as well as many of today's leading Emerson scholars. With an introduction that effectively destroys the "pernicious myth about Emerson's apolitical individualism" by editors Alan M. Levine and Daniel S. Malachuk, this volume reassesses Emerson's famous theory of self-reliance in light of his antislavery politics, demonstrates the importance of transcendentalism to his politics, and explores the enduring significance of his thought for liberal democracy. Including a substantial bibliography of work on Emerson's politics over the last century, A Political Companion to Ralph Waldo Emerson is an indispensable resource for students of Emerson, American literature, and American political thought, as well as for those who wrestle with the fundamental challenges of democracy and liberalism.

Book excerpt: This issue of The Ministry contains a complete record of the twelve messages given during the 2006 summer training on the Crystallization-study of the Body of Christ, held July 3 to 8 in Anaheim, California. The crucial truth and burden embodied in these twelve messages may be summarized in four statements: (1) The divine economy is God's plan to dispense Christ into His chosen people to produce, constitute, and build up the organic Body of Christ. (2) The unique oneness of the Body of Christ is the oneness of the Spirit--the mingling of the processed Triune God with all the believers in Christ. (3) The overcomers see the Body, know the Body, care for the Body, honor the Body, do the work of the Body, and keep every principle of the Body. (4) The overcomers live out and work out the New Jerusalem by the mingling of God with man for the oneness of the Body of Christ. These messages are being published immediately following the training in order that they may benefit the saints participating in many video trainings that are held throughout the earth. The Announcements section includes fellowship concerning the use of the Bower House property in London, UK.
