Download or read book Quotable Thoughts written by John O'Loughlin and published by John O'Loughlin. This book was released on 2022-11-28 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An original aphoristic philosophy project divided into two substantive parts, the first of which, entitled 'Quotable Thoughts', is less technically sophisticated and altogether more concise than the second, entitled 'Unquotable Thoughts', which is quasi-essayistic in character, albeit still written within a loosely aphoristic framework the contents of which would, given their average length, be difficult if not impossible to memorize, or quote. Finally, this eBook is rounded off with an essayistic appendix and a fairly brief biographical sketch of the author. Following on from Notable Thoughts (2022), this is John O'Loughlin's most advanced and logically definitive text, which should reward those who are really keen to learn how things comprehensively 'stack up' on a variety of levels, both negatively and positively, on terms which considerably expose the misleading and possibly expedient nature of common usage in respect of what he holds to be crass generalizations. – A Centretruths Editorial
Download or read book How Antigravity Built the Pyramids written by Nick Redfern and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Discover the Lost Secrets of the Ancients and the Time When Stones Floated High over Egypt Throughout history, folklore, and mystery, tales have circulated of massive stones being moved through the air effortlessly by sound. Bizarre? Well, yes, it is. That doesn’t take away the fact that sound was, and still remains, the key to the construction of the pyramids of Egypt, Stonehenge, the stone figures of Easter Island, and the massive stones at Baalbek, Lebanon. Were they the work of ancient humans or of equally ancient extraterrestrials? How Antigravity Built the Pyramids delves into specific stories and theories: A 9th-century story of a mysterious papyrus with the power to move large stones at the Giza Necropolis The Mayan story of the construction of the Pyramid of the Magician said to be overseen by a small humanoid who could whistle large stones into place Native American stories of ancient priests being able to make stones light to move easily Author Nick Redfern argues it was not literally music and whistling that somehow raised large stones, but both have one thing in common: sound. Acoustics. Almost certainly, acoustic levitation was at the heart of these incredible feats. The truth of the science behind acoustic levitation was lost and forgotten for ages with little more left than fanciful tales of music, whistles, a curious papyrus, and strange metal rods that could achieve incredible feats in the air. Today, we are finally starting to get a grasp on this incredible technology, a technology that may have been the work of ancient humans, aliens from faraway worlds—or, perhaps, a combination of the two.

Download or read book The Forces of Form in German Modernism written by Malika Maskarinec and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-15 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Forces of Form in German Modernism charts a modern history of form as emergent from force. Offering a provocative alternative to the imagery of crisis and estrangement that has preoccupied scholarship on modernism, Malika Maskarinec shows that German modernism conceives of human bodies and aesthetic objects as shaped by a contest of conflicting and reciprocally intensifying forces: the force of gravity and a self-determining will to form. Maskarinec thereby discloses, for the first time, German modernism's sustained preoccupation with classical mechanics and with how human bodies and artworks resist gravity. Considering canonical artists such as Rodin and Klee, seminal authors such as Kafka and Döblin, and largely neglected thinkers in aesthetics and art history such as those associated with Empathy Aesthetics, Maskarinec unpacks the manifold anthropological and aesthetic concerns and historical lineage embedded in the idea of form as the precarious achievement of uprightness. The Forces of Form in German Modernism makes a decisive contribution to our understanding of modernism and to contemporary discussions about form, empathy, materiality, and human embodiment.
Download or read book Nalanda written by Shivani Singh and published by Manjul Publishing. This book was released on with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In medieval India, Siddhartha is a young Buddhist monk studying in one of the most renowned and ancient universities of the world – Nalanda. He is catapulted to the brink of history by the University senior teachers. They command him to aid the royal investigation of a suspicious death on campus. Mahipala, the king of Magadha, believes the death is actually a murder. Mahipala’s royal Officer in charge of the investigation is none other than siddhartha’s brother Aditya Raj. The brothers are forced into an uneasy alliance. Between them are played off the unforetold forces that wiped off Nalanda from the historical map of India. As the fate of Nalanda is sealed, strange deaths occur in quick succession. Plagued by misery and doubt, Siddhartha unwittingly stumbles upon a secret. It makes him question his faith, his rationality and, finally, his own existence. In the end, Nalanda is razed to the ground. This is fact. However, the narrative is a climactic context of many other elements of alternative history and speculative spirituality. It’s a shocking Disclosure of esoteric practices, involving the divine feminine, never divulged to the masses for reasons unknown. Venturing into historically virgin territory and, in many ways, picking up from where Dan Brown left, Nalanda exposes a reality that is devastating, mind-altering and yet, somehow, liberating.

Trevor learns that there are numerous hostile alien races who are committed to preventing Earth’s Ascension to membership in the galactic community. The central characters, a group of friends who share an interest in UFOs, unexpectedly learn that the activation of transhuman abilities embedded in their DNA is linked to the approach of the Ascension.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As society teeters on the brink of nuclear apocalypse, Markus Moksha, an oversexed alcoholic anthropologist, encounters Dordogne, a telepathic woman from the future who recognizes his import to the fate of humanity. She recruits him to join her team of time-traveling scientists aboard their UFO, as they venture back through the distant past, seeking to enact a change that will bring peace to his time and avert the Great War. Along the way, Markus discovers that his loathsome christian upbringing, together with an unabashed love of alcohol, drugs, and promiscuous sex, have inexplicably imbued him with the perfect set of tools for furthering the mission. However, mounting hardship and clashes for control of the timeline force every member of the team to look within and reflect on what it means to be human. As civilization’s last hope of avoiding Armageddon, they must persevere in the face of pervasive challenges and devastating loss, with the wish of returning home to find a new and brighter world, where the political and religious feuds of the troglodyte past have given way to an enlightened, Superhuman future.
Download or read book The Nth Power written by Dr. Mitchell Wick and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2018-09-06 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am a scientist, therefore I need solid empirical evidence to accept anything as real. Here is the difference between scientific evidence and anecdotal evidence: There is ample anecdotal evidence which is presumptive of the existence of ghosts or other paranormal phenomena. If one uses the scientific method to verify the hypothesis that ghosts are real and not just visual or auditory hallucinations, one needs to have hard empirical data documenting phenomena that otherwise cant be explained by most types of hard science. I am a physicist and a physician with an extensive mathematical and scientific background, and I will explore the questions, Does paranormal phenomena exist, and can it be explained by physics?
Download or read book Body and Text in the Eighteenth Century written by Veronica Kelly and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 1994-09-01 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Twelve scholars from the fields of English, French, and German literature here examine the complex ways in which the human body becomes the privileged semiotic model through which eighteenth-century culture defines its political and conceptual centers. In making clear that the deployment of the body varies tremendously depending on what is meant by the 'human body', the essays draw on popular literature, poetics and aesthetics, garden architecture, physiognomy, beauty manuals, pornography and philosophy, as well as on canonical works in the genres of the novel and the drama.
Download or read book Sensing the Divine written by Michael N. Marsh and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-08-10 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes another unique basis for the origins of religion from disturbances in brain function. It proposes the novel idea that near-death and out-of-body experiences (ND/OBE) engendered “a sense of the divine” in ancient man. As the author points out, key aspects of ND/OBE are thematic of all later established religions. These include journeys to heaven, sightings of brightly-lit godlike figures, and dead people now alive. Thus, ND/OBE could be the originating source of these spiritual motifs. To this, the author adds a fourth factor: various brain influences contribute to or modulate ND/OBE. Such cognate neurological disorders include REM-sleep intrusions, sleep paralysis, narcolepsy, and the Guillain-Barré syndrome. Errors due to aberrant switching between key neural control centers disrupt critical state-boundaries between consciousness and dreaming. This may induce NDE. Thus, in this state, subjects temporarily fail to understand where they are, undergo loss of self, and detached from the world. They imagine a “union with Gods.” Here, then, is the biological basis of ineffability. Ancient humans gained beliefs about the "supernatural" through day-to-day existence. This book argues that near death experiences and cognate neurological conditions, some genetically-determined, could have facilitated, even augmented such beliefs. Hence, in configuring another realm of “spiritual” experience beyond the known environment, these neurological possibilities offer effective traction.

Download or read book Night Thoughts of a Classical Physicist written by Russell McCormmach and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1991 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is the end of an historical epoch, but to an old professor of physics, Victor Jakob, sitting in his unlighted study, eating dubious bread with jam made from turnips, it is the end of a way of thinking in his own subject. Younger men have challenged the classical world picture of physics and are looking forward to observational tests of Einstein's new theory of relativity as well as the creation of a quantum mechanics of the atom. It is a time of both apprehension and hope. In this remarkable book, the reader literally inhabits the mind of a scientist while Professor Jakob meditates on the discoveries of the past fifty years and reviews his own life and career--his scientific ambitions and his record of small successes. He recalls the great men who taught or inspired him: Helmholtz, Hertz, Maxwell, Planck, and above all Paul Drude, whose life and mind exemplified the classical virtues of proportion, harmony, and grace that Jakob reveres. In Drude's shocking and unexpected suicide, we see reflected Jakob's own bewilderment and loss of bearings as his once secure world comes to an end in the horrors of the war and in the cultural fragmentation wrought by twentieth-century modernism. His attempt to come to terms with himself, with his life in science, and with his spiritual legacy will affect deeply everyone who cares about the fragile structures of civilization that must fall before the onrush of progress.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Bowie and Romanticism evaluates Bowie’s music, film, drama, and personae alongside eighteenth- and nineteenth-century poets, novelists, and artists. These chapters expand our understanding of both the literature studied as well as Bowie’s music, exploring the boundaries of reason and imagination, and of identity, gender, and genre. This collection uses the conceptual apparata and historical insights provided by the study of Romanticism to provide insight into identity formation, drawing from Romantic theories of self to understand Bowie’s oeuvre and periods of his career. The chapters discuss key themes in Bowie’s work and analyze what Bowie has to teach us about Romantic art and literature as well.
