This book was released on 2015 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vida dum ser humano é composta por várias dinâmicas em permanente interacção. Dessas dinâmicas resulta a identidade e a realidade material, mas também o grupo de pessoas com quem se interage, as emoções envolvidas nessas interacções e a concretização ou não de sonhos.Nesta obra, pretende-se dar a conhecer o modo como todas estas dinâmicas funcionam, elucidando sobre os diferentes elementos e mecanismos inerentes à existência dum ser, os quais interferem na estruturação de sua alma.Neste sentido, importa conhecer o modo como a realidade é transformada e como este processo interfere na composição da identidade.Tendo por base uma linguagem objectiva, ao longo dos vários capítulos dá-se a conhecer a dinâmica da energia espiritual interveniente na transformação dos diversos aspectos da vida, como ela opera de acordo com as regras divinas e como pode ser desenvolvida no sentido de permitir maior realização pessoal.Os conceitos aqui utilizados inserem-se num contexto muito além do uso comum que frequentemente assumem, para desvendar um panorama mais completo e pragmático sobre o sentido da vida.Na senda pela promoção da responsibilidade e do autoconhecimento, existe ainda uma demonstração dos princípios que unem a acção humana com o propósito divino, a partir do reconhecimento do fluxo espiritual que se manifesta nas competências inatas à nascença e que determina a missão de cada indivíduo no planeta.Ao longo dos vários capítulos, estes factos permitem a consciêncialização do sentido da existência, enquanto desconstruíndo temas complexos e possibilitando uma melhor assimilação da ligação que possuem entre si."A felicidade não está relacionada com a intensidade, mas com o equilíbrio, a ordem, o ritmo e a harmonia" (Thomas Merton).A ciência da alma vai muito além do que a psicologia moderna poderia afirmar ou compreender, e é transversal a todas as àreas da vida e personalidades, em qualquer canto do mundo. Pois, para se viver em sabedoria, "o melhor e mais seguro a fazer é manter o equilíbrio na vida, reconhecer os grandes poderes que nos rodeiam e estão dentro de nós" (Euripedes).
Download or read book Alma e Corpo written by Warren Felt Evans and published by A.R.Ribeiro. This book was released on with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este livro examina a conexão entre corpo e mente, revelando que a verdadeira saúde é um estado de equilíbrio e harmonia entre essas duas dimensões do ser. A doença, por outro lado, é vista como uma perturbação dessa harmonia, manifestando-se de maneira orgânica ou funcional. No entanto, tais manifestações externas são meros reflexos de causas internas mais sutis. A compreensão da saúde e da cura exige uma visão holística, que vai além dos sintomas visíveis. O conceito fundamental é que a cura verdadeira surge do interior, restaurando o princípio vital que rege o organismo. Essa visão é sustentada por práticas antigas e filosofias espirituais, que reconhecem a importância de alinhar o corpo e o espírito para alcançar um estado de completude e bem-estar. A influência da mente sobre a saúde é uma questão central. Métodos terapêuticos históricos, como a imposição das mãos, são baseados na ideia de que a força psíquica e espiritual pode afetar o corpo de maneiras profundas e eficazes. Essa prática, conhecida como Cura por Movimento Magnético, demonstra que a energia espiritual e a consciência têm um impacto tangível sobre o estado físico e mental. A fé e a oração desempenham papéis cruciais na cura espiritual e física. A prática da oração, quando feita com sinceridade e profundidade, pode influenciar positivamente a saúde, refletindo uma crença na capacidade do espírito para transformar e curar. Esse princípio é corroborado por diversas tradições e evidenciado por práticas religiosas que envolvem comunicação direta com o divino. A integração entre saúde física e espiritual é basilar. A história mostra que a cura de Cristo e de outros curadores espirituais está profundamente enraizada na compreensão da relação entre corpo e alma. Manter um corpo saudável é essencial para sustentar o progresso espiritual e vice-versa, reforçando a necessidade de uma abordagem integrada para a saúde e o bem-estar. Este livro busca iluminar essas conexões, revelando como a ciência e a espiritualidade podem se entrelaçar para promover uma compreensão mais completa da saúde e da cura. A evolução espiritual da humanidade e a prática da fé são vistas como caminhos para uma vida mais saudável e equilibrada, demonstrando que a saúde verdadeira é, em última análise, uma manifestação da harmonia entre o corpo, a mente e o espírito.

Download or read book Tapping the Green Market written by Abraham Guillen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 471 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a rapidly growing interest in, and demand for, non-timber forest products (NTFPs). They provide critical resources across the globe fulfilling nutritional, medicinal, financial and cultural needs. However, they have been largely overlooked in mainstream conservation and forestry politics. This volume explains the use and importance of certification and eco-labelling for guaranteeing best management practices of non-timber forest products in the field. Using extensive case studies and global profiles of non-timber forest products, this work not only seeks to further our comprehension of certification processes but also broaden understanding of non-timber forest product management, harvesting and marketing. It should be useful to forest managers, policy-makers and conservation organizations as well as for academics in these areas.
Download or read book The Ritual Process written by Victor Turner and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Ritual Process: Structure and Anti-Structure, Victor Turner examines rituals of the Ndembu in Zambia and develops his now-famous concept of "Communitas." He characterizes it as an absolute inter-human relation beyond any form of structure.The Ritual Process has acquired the status of a small classic since these lectures were first published in 1969. Turner demonstrates how the analysis of ritual behavior and symbolism may be used as a key to understanding social structure and processes. He extends Van Gennep's notion of the "liminal phase" of rites of passage to a more general level, and applies it to gain understanding of a wide range of social phenomena. Once thought to be the "vestigial" organs of social conservatism, rituals are now seen as arenas in which social change may emerge and be absorbed into social practice.As Roger Abrahams writes in his foreword to the revised edition: "Turner argued from specific field data. His special eloquence resided in his ability to lay open a sub-Saharan African system of belief and practice in terms that took the reader beyond the exotic features of the group among whom he carried out his fieldwork, translating his experience into the terms of contemporary Western perceptions. Reflecting Turner's range of intellectual interests, the book emerged as exceptional and eccentric in many ways: yet it achieved its place within the intellectual world because it so successfully synthesized continental theory with the practices of ethnographic reports."
Download or read book The Twilight of the Avant garde written by Jonathan Mayhew and published by Liverpool University Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twilight of the Avant-Garde addresses the central problem of contemporary Spanish poetry: the attempt to preserve the scope and ambition of modernist poetry at the end of the twentieth century. Offering a critical analysis of Luis Garcìa Montero’s “poetry of experience,” and the work of José Angel Valente and Antonio Gamoneda, among others, Mayhew challenges received notions about the value of poetic language in relation to the society and culture at large. Ultimately championing the survival of more challenging and ambitious modes of poetic writing in the postmodern age, this volume argues that the cultural ambition of modernist poetics remains alive and well in our age of cynicism.
Download or read book Eryxias written by Plato and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eryxias by Plato is a spurious Socratic dialogue. It is set in the Stoa of Zeus Eleutherios, and features Socrates in conversation with Critias, Eryxias, and Erasistratus (nephew of Phaeax). The dialogue concerns the topic of wealth and virtue. The position of Eryxias that it is good to be materially prosperous is challenged when Critias argues that having money is not always a good thing. Socrates then shows that money has only a conventional value.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 10th anniversary edition A Guardian Best Book about Deforestation A New Scientist Best Book of the Year A Taipei Times Best Book of the Year “A perfectly grounded account of what it is like to live an indigenous life in communion with one’s personal spirits. We are losing worlds upon worlds.” —Louise Erdrich, New York Times Book Review “The Yanomami of the Amazon, like all the indigenous peoples of the Americas and Australia, have experienced the end of what was once their world. Yet they have survived and somehow succeeded in making sense of a wounded existence. They have a lot to teach us.” —Amitav Ghosh, The Guardian “A literary treasure...a must for anyone who wants to understand more of the diverse beauty and wonder of existence.” —New Scientist A now classic account of the life and thought of Davi Kopenawa, shaman and spokesman for the Yanomami, The Falling Sky paints an unforgettable picture of an indigenous culture living in harmony with the Amazon forest and its creatures, and its devastating encounter with the global mining industry. In richly evocative language, Kopenawa recounts his initiation as a shaman and first experience of outsiders: missionaries, cattle ranchers, government officials, and gold prospectors seeking to extract the riches of the Amazon. A coming-of-age story entwined with a rare first-person articulation of shamanic philosophy, this impassioned plea to respect indigenous peoples’ rights is a powerful rebuke to the accelerating depredation of the Amazon and other natural treasures threatened by climate change and development.

Download or read book A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula written by Fernando Cabo Aseguinolaza and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-26 with total page 766 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula is the second comparative history of a new subseries with a regional focus, published by the Coordinating Committee of the International Comparative Literature Association. As its predecessor for East-Central Europe, this two-volume history distances itself from traditional histories built around periods and movements, and explores, from a comparative viewpoint, a space considered to be a powerful symbol of inter-literary relations. Both the geographical pertinence and its symbolic condition are obviously discussed, when not even contested. Written by an international team of researchers who are specialists in the field, this history is the first attempt at applying a comparative approach to the plurilingual and multicultural literatures in the Iberian Peninsula. The aim of comprehensiveness is abandoned in favor of a diverse and extensive array of key issues for a comparative agenda. A Comparative History of Literatures in the Iberian Peninsula undermines the primacy claimed for national and linguistic boundaries, and provides a geo-cultural account of literary inter-systems which cannot otherwise be explained.
Download or read book Greek Natural Philosophy written by John Baird Callicott and published by . This book was released on 2017-12-21 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Greek Natural Philosophy presents the primary sources on the Presocratics in a straightforward way in order to tell a coherent story about the astonishing development of natural philosophy in ancient Greece and its relevance today. The book begins with historical influences on the birth of natural philosophy, especially literacy and the ecosystem services provided by the natural environment of ancient Greece. It argues that the individual philosophers' thoughts about the nature of the cosmos, living things, humankind, and human culture were linked by a "diachronic dialectic of ideas." Each philosopher's speculations were subjected to a critique by the next generation who crafted more subtle theories. The dialectical transition is traced from the mythopoeic worldview of Hesiod to the rational worldview of Thales and his Milesian successors, followed by Xenophanes and Heraclitus, then Parmenides and his Eleatic successors, and the qualitative pluralisms of Anaxagoras and Empedocles. An entirely fresh interpretation is provided of the Atomists and later Pythagoreans, whose work culminated in the ideas upon which Galileo, Newton, and the other architects of modern science, continued to build. In the span of only two centuries, the Presocratics developed the basic principles of philosophy and natural science, ecology, mathematical astronomy, the atomic theory of matter, an inertial theory of motion, and the possibility that our solar system is only one of infinitely many scattered throughout infinite time and space. The concluding chapter traces natural philosophy through subsequent centuries until its abandonment in 20th century philosophy, leading to the moribund state of philosophy by the end of that century. The authors show how environmental philosophy represents a return to natural philosophy and a model for the revival of philosophy's vigor and relevance in the 21st century. Greek Natural Philosophy is suitable for undergraduate and graduate courses in ancient Greek philosophy or in environmental philosophy, and will be of interest to scholars in these fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Superb general account.' Times Literary Supplement The story of the history of Western astrology begins with the philosophers of Greece in the 5th century BC. To the magic and stargazing of Egypt the Greeks added numerology, geometryand rational thought. The philosophy of Plato and later of the Stoics made astrology respectable, and by the time Ptolemy wrote his textbook the Tetrabiblos, in the second century AD, the main lines of astrological practice as it is known today had already been laid down. In future centuries astrology shifted to Islam only to return to the West in medieval times where it flourished until the shift of ideas during the Renaissance.
