Download or read book The Collected Works of Helena Blavatsky written by Helena Blavatsky and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-29 with total page 2914 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Collected Works of Helena Blavatsky is a comprehensive collection of writings by the influential Theosophist author. Blavatsky's works delve into esoteric and spiritual philosophies, exploring topics such as karma, reincarnation, and the nature of reality. Her writing style is intricate and dense, often drawing from a wide range of religious and philosophical traditions. This collection provides a glimpse into the spiritual beliefs of the late 19th century, offering valuable insights into the occult and mystical practices of the time. Blavatsky's works continue to be studied and debated by scholars of comparative religion and esotericism. Helena Blavatsky, a Russian writer and philosopher, co-founded the Theosophical Society and played a key role in the development of modern Western esotericism. Her travels and encounters with mystics and spiritual teachers around the world deeply influenced her writings. Blavatsky's works are considered foundational texts in the New Age movement and continue to inspire seekers of spiritual wisdom. I highly recommend The Collected Works of Helena Blavatsky to readers interested in the history of Western esotericism, occultism, and spiritual philosophy. Blavatsky's writings offer a unique perspective on the mysteries of the universe and provide a rich source of knowledge for those exploring alternative spiritual paths.

Download or read book Moral Codes and Social Structure in Ancient Greece written by Joseph M. Bryant and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1996-01-01 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exercise in cultural sociology, Moral Codes and Social Structure in Ancient Greece seeks to explicate the dynamic currents of classical Hellenic ethics and social philosophy by situating those idea-complexes in their socio-historical and intellectual contexts. Central to this enterprise is a comprehensive historical-sociological analysis of the Polis form of social organization, which charts the evolution of its basic institutions, roles, statuses, and class relations. From the Dark Age period of "genesis" on to the Hellenistic era of "eclipse" by the emergent forces of imperial patrimonialism, Polis society promoted and sustained corresponding normative codes which mobilized and channeled the requisite emotive commitments and cognitive judgments for functional proficiency under existing conditions of life. The aristocratic warrior-ethos canonized in the Homeric epics; the civic ideology of equality and justice espoused by reformist lawgivers and poets; the democratization of status honor and martial virtue that attended the shift to hoplite warfare; the philosophical exaltation of the Polis-citizen bond as found in the architectonic visions of Plato and Aristotle; and the subsequent retreat from civic virtues and the interiorization of value articulated by the Skeptics, Epicureans, and Stoics, new age philosophies in a world remade by Alexander's conquests--these are the key phases in the evolving currents of Hellenic moral discourse, as structurally framed by transformations within the institutional matrix of Polis society.

Download or read book Atheism and Secularity written by Phil Zuckerman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-12-21 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This important two-volume contribution to the field of secular studies offers the first comprehensive examination of atheists and non-religious people around the world. Who are atheists? How does atheism relate to various aspects of our social world, such as politics, feminism, globalization, and the family? And what is the current state of atheism internationally? Atheism and Secularity addresses the growing interest in the non-religious world by exploring these and related questions. It is a comprehensive and compelling look at atheists and atheism both nationally and internationally, covering a range of topics often overlooked in other books on the subject. Atheism and Secularity is not a philosophical, polemic work, but rather an exploration of who atheists are, what they believe, how they relate to the world, and how the world relates to them. The first volume focuses on topics such as family life, gender, sexuality, politics, and social movements. The second volume looks at atheism and secularity around the world, exploring the lives of non-religious people in North America, Japan, China, India, Europe, the Arab World, and other locations.
