This collection of poetry is a journey through the heart and soul, exploring the power of spiritual practices. Each poem is a reflection on a specific spiritual principle, inviting you on a journey of self-discovery and growth. The idea for this book came from a desire to go deeper into the wisdom of spiritual principles and to share what I learned along the way. Over the course of a year, I committed to writing one poem each week, focusing on a different spiritual principle. The result is a fabric of verses that together highlight the beauty and significance of these timeless teachings. The principles explored in this book are universal, going beyond religious boundaries and speaking to the goodness within us all. From surrender and honesty to compassion and gratitude, each poem offers a detailed perspective on how these principles can be applied in our daily lives.

Take time to reflect on the messages received and consider how you can apply these principles into your own spiritual life. The structure of this book is designed to encourage a weekly exploration of each principle. You may choose to read one poem per week, using it as a focal point for meditation, journaling, or discussion with others. Alternatively, you may prefer to read the poems in sequence, allowing the build up of wisdom to wash over you. It is my deepest hope that these poems will serve as a source of inspiration, comfort, and guidance on your spiritual path. May they remind you of the incredible potential within you and the power of living in alignment with these timeless principles. As you embark on this poetic journey, remember that the true essence of spirituality is not in the words themselves, but in the way they come alive within you. May these poems be a springboard for your own spiritual awakening, guiding you towards a life of purpose, peace, and profound connection with God, society ,and self.

Download or read book Convergence of East West Poetics written by Zhanghui Yang and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-07-23 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book examines William Carlos Williams’s negotiation with cultural modes and systems of the Chinese landscape tradition in his landscape writing. Focusing on Walliams’s landscape modes of landscape with(out) infused emotions, the book builds a linkage between their interactions with Chinese landscape aesthetics and shows how these conversations helped shape Williams’s cross-cultural landscape poetics. The exploration of Williams’s experiment with the Chinese serene interplay of self and landscape, the interfusion of scene and emotion, an idea of seeing from the perspective of Wang Guowei’s theory of jingjie, and the poetic space of frustration and completion in the context of space and human geography, expand the understanding of a cross-cultural landscape tradition developed by Williams through bringing into focus the convergence of East-West poetics.

Download or read book Robert K Greenleaf written by Don M. Frick and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2004-07-01 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands if not millions of people have heard the term “servant leadership,” introduced by Robert K. Greenleaf in his landmark essay The Servant as Leader, published in 1970. There are now Centers for Servant Leadership in ten countries and counting. His work is regularly cited by some of the most prominent business writers and leaders in the world, such as Ken Blanchard, Stephen Covey, Peter Senge, Margaret Wheatley, and Peter Block. And yet until now there has been no biography of the man who first developed this revolutionary idea. Don Frick was given unfettered access to all of Greenleaf’s papers and correspondence. The result is a fascinating book that details the sources of Greenleaf’s thought, describes his friendships with dozens of well-known people, and shows how he influenced business history well before his first book was published at the age of 73, and lived his own life as a servant leader. As Director of Management Research at AT&T for 38 years, Greenleaf was known as “AT&T’s Kept Revolutionary.” Among other unusual initiatives, he oversaw a novel program which taught executive decision making through great literature, established the first corporate assessment center using knowledge gleaned from the OSS’s approach to training civilian spies during World War II, and invited leading philosophers and theologians to have conversations with AT&T executives. After a period of soul searching and some surprising experiments in consciousness, Greenleaf retired from AT&T and began to develop the concept of servant leadership, the then-heretical notion that leaders lead best by serving their followers rather than “commanding” them. He continued to promote the idea through teaching, writing, and consulting until his last years, and was instrumental in creating a score of important organizations such as The Center for Creative Leadership and Yokefellow Institute. Always, Greenleaf was a seeker opening himself up to novel experiences and astonishing people. He was a complex person—an introvert who served in public roles, a wise person who refused to give others “The Answer,” a brilliant thinker who often declared, “I am not a scholar.” His grave carries the epitaph he wrote for himself: “Potentially a good plumber; ruined by a sophisticated education.”

Download or read book Anna Letitia Barbauld and Eighteenth Century Visionary Poetics written by Daniel P. Watkins and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2012-04-16 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this first critical study of Anna Letitia Barbauld’s major work, Daniel P. Watkins reveals the singular purpose of Barbauld’s visionary poems: to recreate the world based on the values of liberty and justice. Watkins examines in close detail both the form and content of Barbauld’s Poems, originally published in 1773 and revised and reissued in 1792. Along with careful readings of the poems that situate the works in their broader political, historical, and philosophical contexts, Watkins explores the relevance of the introductory epigraphs and the importance of the poems’ placement throughout the volume. Centering his study on Barbauld’s effort to develop a visionary poetic stance, Watkins argues that the deliberate arrangement of the poems creates a coherent portrayal of Barbauld’s poetic, political, and social vision, a far-sighted sagacity born of her deep belief that the principles of love, sympathy, liberty, and pacifism are necessary for a secure and meaningful human reality. In tracing the contours of this effort, Watkins examines, in particular, the tension in Barbauld’s poetry between her desire to engage directly with the political realities of the world and her equally strong longing for a pastoral world of peace and prosperity. Scholars of British literature and women writers will welcome this important study of one of the eighteenth century’s foremost writers.
