These books contain compiled information of vital points of Ascended Master instruction given over a period of several years. This teaching is the law of life and its conscious application. This instruction explains and makes clear fundamental laws of everyone's life and teaches their practical application. First: the knowledge of each one's Individualized Presence of God. Second: the Protective Pillar of light. Third: the use of the Transmuting Flame. Fourth: the Ascension, the goal of each one's life. Law of Life Book I (First published in 1959) gives information on fundamentals, understanding and application to make it practical for both beginners and more advanced students. Law of Life Book II (First published in 1960) gives detailed information about the Ascended Masters, Cosmic and Divine Being and their retreats. It includes information on the Chohans and the Seven Rays and Flames.
Download or read book Law and Life Why Law written by Peter van Schilfgaarde and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-03-25 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is based on the assumption that the world is governed by a widespread field of interconnected laws. In this field man-made laws – legal laws - have to coexist with the laws of nature, the laws of science and the laws of logic. They have to find their place in relation to a certain society. They have to relate to the demands of morality, ethics, custom and trust. They have to follow the laws of language. They have to deal with a variety of professional and esthetic rules. They have to defend their position between art and craft. Finally, and significantly, they have to cope with a host of different ideas about truth. This book approaches law as a human construct meant to strengthen society as it develops through the ages. Knowledge of the law – legal knowledge – is of doubtful value if it ignores the demands and ideals of society. The same goes for the thinking leading to legal knowledge. This book focuses on a basic concept. That concept is met if the legal thinking, leading to legal knowledge, reaches the level of an independent, law and society oriented, contemplative discipline. A discipline which is in that sense and to that extent in touch with - cherished or less cherished - parts of given law.
Download or read book Life After Law written by Liz Brown and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written by Harvard-trained ex-law firm partner Liz Brown, Life After Law: Finding Work You Love with the J.D. You Have provides specific, realistic, and honest advice on alternative careers for lawyers. Unlike generic career guides, Life After Law shows lawyers how to reframe their legal experience to their competitive advantage, no matter how long they have been in or out of practice, to find work they truly love. Brown herself moved from a high-powered partnership into an alternative career and draws from this experience, as well as that of dozens of former practicing attorneys, in the book. She acknowledges that changing careers is hard much harder than it was for most lawyers to get their first legal job after law school but it can ultimately be more fulfilling for many than a life in law. Life After Law offers an alternative framework and valuable analytic tools for potential careers to help launch lawyers into new fields and make them attractive hires for non-legal employers.

Download or read book The Law of Life and Death written by Elizabeth Price Foley and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you alive? What makes you so sure? Most people believe this question has a clear answer—that some law defines our status as living (or not) for all purposes. But they are dead wrong. In this pioneering study, Elizabeth Price Foley examines the many, and surprisingly ambiguous, legal definitions of what counts as human life and death. Foley reveals that “not being dead” is not necessarily the same as being alive, in the eyes of the law. People, pre-viable fetuses, and post-viable fetuses have different sets of legal rights, which explains the law's seemingly inconsistent approach to stem cell research, in vitro fertilization, frozen embryos, in utero embryos, contraception, abortion, homicide, and wrongful death. In a detailed analysis that is sure to be controversial, Foley shows how the need for more organ transplants and the need to conserve health care resources are exerting steady pressure to expand the legal definition of death. As a result, death is being declared faster than ever before. The "right to die," Foley worries, may be morphing slowly into an obligation to die. Foley’s balanced, accessible chapters explore the most contentious legal issues of our time—including cryogenics, feticide, abortion, physician-assisted suicide, brain death, vegetative and minimally conscious states, informed consent, and advance directives—across constitutional, contract, tort, property, and criminal law. Ultimately, she suggests, the inconsistencies and ambiguities in U.S. laws governing life and death may be culturally, and perhaps even psychologically, necessary for an enormous and diverse country like ours.

Download or read book Law in Everyday Life written by Austin Sarat and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2009-11-10 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Sarat and Kearns . . . have edited a truly marvelous work on the impact of the law on daily life and vice versa. . . . the essays are all exemplary, thought- provoking works worthy of a long, contemplative read by scholars, lawyers, and judges alike." --Choice "The subject of law in everyday life is timely in theory and in practice. The essays collected here are stimulating for the very different ways in which they reconfigure the meanings of 'the law' as cultural practice, and 'the everyday' as a cultural domain in which the state expresses a range of interests and engagements. Readers looking for an introduction to this topic will come away from the book with a clear sense of the varied voices and modes of inquiry now involved in sociolegal studies, and what distinguishes them. More experienced readers will appreciate the book's meticulous reconsideration of the instrumentalities, agencies, and constructedness of law." --Carol Greenhouse, Indiana University Contributors include David Engel, Hendrik Hartog, Thomas R.

Download or read book A Clearing in the Forest written by Steven L. Winter and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2001-10-15 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cognitive science is transforming our understanding of the mind. New discoveries are changing how we comprehend not just language, but thought itself. Yet, surprisingly little of the new learning has penetrated discussions and analysis of the most important social institution affecting our lives-the law. Drawing on work in philosophy, psychology, anthropology, linguistics, and literary theory, Steven L. Winter has created nothing less than a tour de force of interdisciplinary analysis. A Clearing in the Forest rests on the simple notion that the better we understand the workings of the mind, the better we will understand all its products-especially law. Legal studies today focus on analytic skills and grand normative theories. But, to understand how real-world, legal actors reason and decide, we need a different set of tools. Cognitive science provides those tools, opening a window on the imaginative, yet orderly mental processes that animate thinking and decisionmaking among lawyers, judges, and lay persons alike. Recent findings about how humans actually categorize and reason make it possible to explain legal reasoning in new, more cogent, more productive ways. A Clearing in the Forest is a compelling meditation on both how the law works and what it all means. In uncovering the irrepressibly imaginative, creative quality of human reason, Winter shows how what we are learning about the mind changes not only our understanding of law, but ultimately of ourselves. He charts a unique course to understanding the world we inhabit, showing us the way to the clearing in the forest.

Download or read book Law in Daily Life written by Rudolf von Jhering and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Law in Daily Life: A Collection of Legal Questions Connected With the Ordinary Events of Everyday Life In daily life many legal relations and legal transactions arise which, owing to the insignificance of the object involved in them, hardly ever lead to an action, but which for all that may be applied with great utility to purposes of legal education, because they give to beginners the opportunity of contemplating with a legal eye the ordinary occurrences of life. I have collected a great number of cases of this nature and arranged them together from various points of view. The collection first appeared as an appendix to the second edition of my 'Civilrechts-falle ohne Entscheidungen, ' published in the year 1870, and then independently; and its value for teaching purposes has been proved by the new editions which have since made their appearance, and by several translations (an Italian by Vito Perugio, a Hungarian by Professor Biermann, a Greek by Dr. Demaras, an abridgement in the Portuguese tongue in De Menezes, Questoes vigentes de philoeophia e dt direito, Pernambuco, p. 161 sq.). May the little book still further prove its usefulness for legal education. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
