Download or read book Path of Peace and Happiness written by Chulan Sampathge and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you happy in this modern world? Or do you need more? Is there something else you are searching for? If you are looking for true happiness, then you need to find the path leading to it. The principal aim of this book is to share the value of the middle path propounded by the Buddha many centuries ago, rejecting extremes. Unlike the historical Buddha’s time, in this modern world, lots of undue suffering is inflicted upon people by bad politics and false interpretations of carefully selected wrong views. Buddhism’s pragmatic teachings help clarify, uproot, and eliminate the deep underlying causes of suffering. Narrated through a philosophical background, the book conveys how to relate Buddhist teachings to improve the quality of everyday life and find true happiness. It discusses Buddhist ethical values and Western development, including how wrong views can cause destruction and misery, emphasising the futility of wars, a rare book written to be read by kings, presidents, and ambassadors with a view to change the narratives of armed conflicts in the 21st century. Understanding history is essential to guiding important foreign relationships at times of growing uncertainty threatening world peace. The book highlights the destructive consequences of the most recent Russia's aggression in Ukraine. Destroying lives and livelihoods are the nature of armed conflict. The war also imperils the world's economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic: inflation, food security, energy security and further supply-chain pressures driving inflation are among the many challenges policy makers worldwide must tackle. As the global ramifications of the invasion take hold, the book shows the importance of insight wisdom, nonviolence approach on the foreign policy challenges ahead. The book also shows the practical applications of Buddhist teachings through familiar historical literature not inhibited by traditional interpretations. A prime source of both western and eastern philosophies, it constitutes a rational and straightforward understanding of the ethics and psychology of Buddhism, advocating peace and nonviolence, respect for life and individual acceptance of accountability, social responsibility, and welfare of all to improve social cohesion.
Download or read book Your Journey to Peace written by Rosemary McCarthy and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2016-10-21 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intertwined with Rosemary McCarthys personal journey of shifting from an angry, frustrated person blaming others for her unhappiness, to someone who now lives content with herself and in harmony with others, Your Journey to Peace brings the esoteric to the practical and maps out how to become your Best Self and feel empowered in all areas of your life. It also explains: Why we are the way we are individually and collectively; and how we got this way. How we find peace within ourselves by making peace in our relationships and all situations. That God does not allow for suffering! We create it by upholding dualistic concepts of me-and-you and us-and-them that we embraced at our beginnings and before form. The precursor to the Big Bang was the need for form to play out those dualistic concepts we chose at our beginnings: all our issues stem from those original concepts based on ideas of separation rather than unity. That understanding time makes the seven-day creation model valid. What are the extraterrestrials origins? How we can reconcile the growing evidence of our past association with the ETs and our scriptures and beliefs. Our need to embrace the Indigenous peoples connection to Gaia. That we chose to be here at this time of the Shift to bring about our personal and Gaias Ascensions.

Download or read book The Journey of the First Black Bishop written by Jacob Oluwatayo Adeuyan and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2011-08-29 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther was a true son of Africa in character, dilligence, strategic approach to issues, methodologically independent and a deep thinking person. He was taken into slavery not out of his own making or voluntary acceptability but out of providence and the making of human nature. He was destined to go through the ordeal of slavery inorder for him to learn the methodology of how he would release his other brethrens still wallowing in the bondage of slavery and abject poverty. Without Bishop Samuel Ajayi Crowther's ordeal, efforts and strategic planning, the fire of development we now see burning across the continent of Africa today would have been long extinguished. He single handedly planted the tree of unity not only in his home country - Nigeria alone, but across the length and breadth of his beloved continent, which other people from other nations of the world had written off and labelled the dark continent. He brought oil and lamp for us to see the dangerous path that we were formerly trodding and elevated the status of a black person in the committee of world nations. His grandson Albert Macaulay was undisputably the father of politics in Nigeria while others who struggled with his grandfather in the vanguard of education, economic freedom and total destruction of slaverery in Africa also had their own place of recognition in the land of the continent.

It adds direction and meaning to our existence, making life not just a mere survival but a profound journey of self-discovery and fulfillment. Our book, "Journey to the Heart: Uncovering and Embracing Your Life's True Purpose", is a comprehensive, meticulously crafted guide to help you embark on this transformative voyage. Life's purpose, as this book argues, is not a luxury for the few but a birthright for all. It is not discovered merely by chance or through a lightning bolt of inspiration, but through careful exploration, self-reflection, and a deep understanding of the philosophical, religious, and scientific notions of purpose. From the ancient wisdom of biblical figures and philosophers to the modern theories of psychology and quantum physics, this book delves into a wide spectrum of perspectives on purpose, offering you a multidimensional lens to view your life and the world around you. The book begins by defining life's purpose and its profound significance in our lives. It offers a fresh perspective, combining biblical, psychological, philosophical, and scientific viewpoints to paint a full picture of what purpose is and what it can mean for you. The book then uses narratives from the Bible and interpretations from scholars to understand the biblical notion of purpose and its relevance today. You will find profound lessons in the lives of Moses, Esther, Paul, and Jesus that still resonate powerfully in our contemporary world. Continuing the exploration, we dive into the rich insights of ancient philosophers like Socrates, Plato, and Aristotle, and the timeless wisdom of Eastern philosophies, all shedding light on the concept of purpose. It also examines modern philosophies, revealing how existentialism, nihilism, and postmodernism treat the notion of life purpose. Next, we tap into the realm of psychology, analyzing how human needs, motivations, and stages of development relate to our search for purpose. We explore the principles of positive psychology and their implications for a purpose-driven life. We delve into the potential of our minds to foster a growth mindset and resilience, both crucial in navigating the ups and downs of life's journey. Not stopping there, the book examines the link between purpose and mental health, offering insights on how a clear sense of purpose can alleviate depression, anxiety, and stress. It highlights the vital role of neuroscience and sociology in understanding our behaviors and the society that shapes them. A fascinating chapter is dedicated to quantum physics, where we explore how theories such as the observer effect and quantum entanglement can offer intriguing insights into our understanding of purpose. The book pushes the boundaries of traditional thought, offering innovative and thought-provoking perspectives on how we view our life purpose. In the final section, the book takes a practical turn, guiding you step by step on your personal journey of self-discovery. It provides clear, actionable steps for crafting a life purpose statement, navigating obstacles, and integrating your purpose into your daily life. It emphasizes resilience and long-term commitment to living out your purpose. "Journey to the Heart: Uncovering and Embracing Your Life's True Purpose" is for anyone who has ever asked themselves, "What is my purpose?"

And why did his friendship with the Muslim Sultan, al-Kamil, convey such an important message that is still so relevant today?
