Download or read book Connecting the Dots written by Vernon J. O'neal and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2011-09-06 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Connecting The Dots will astound the scientific community of all disciplines and religious people of all faiths. This publication contains an incredible, one-of-a-kind analysis that clearly demonstrates an amazing connection the Bible has with scientific facts. Faith in the Bible and a Supreme Intelligence has long been incompatible with the current scientific body of knowledge. For years, atheist, agnostics and evolutionists have dominated the stage of higher thinking, while believers in a Supreme Intelligence have made only cameo appearances. Connecting The Dots may help change those roles in the future. After reading this book, there may be some who are still not fully convinced. One thing is certain: it's unlikely that anyone would ever see this scientific connection in a million years! Whether this connection is merely coincidental or purposely designed – you be the judge.

Download or read book Connecting with Coincidence written by Bernard Beitman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2016-03-07 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We've all experienced or heard of surprising events and unexplainable coincidences—money that seems to come from nowhere, a spontaneous idea that turns into a life-changing solution, meeting our soulmate on a flight we weren't supposed to take, or families being reunited by "accident" after years of separation. Often these coincidences are explained as being controlled by a higher power or pure chance. But for the first time since Carl Jung's work, comes bold new research that explains scientifically how we can identify, understand, and perhaps even control the frequency of coincidences in our everyday lives. Bernard Beitman, a leading expert on Coincidence Studies, proposes a greater personal responsibility which depends partly upon newly discovered "grid cells" located in the brain, near the hippocampus. But neuroscience cannot complete the entire puzzle, and in this fascinating guide, Beitman provides the missing piece. From analyzing true stories of synchronicity from around the globe and throughout history, he shares key personality characteristics and situational factors that contribute to the occurrence of meaningful coincidences in our lives. Where other books on coincidences tend to be theoretical, inspirational, or story collections only, Beitman's book is the first to provide a scientific understanding and practical ways in which readers can use them in their own lives. He reveals: How to activate your observing self so you don't miss synchronistic moments How serendipity can offer insights into solving problems or making difficult decisions Why stress activates meaningful coincidences Which states of mind impede our ability to experience synchronicity How to interpret the meaning of a coincidence Why being attuned to coincidences is a learned skill—and how to hone your sensitivity.

Download or read book Oedipus written by Lowell Edmunds and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1995-11-01 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Classicist Lowell Edmunds and folklorist Alan Dundes both note that “the Oedipus tale is not likely to ever fade from view in Western civilization, [as] the tale continues to pack a critical family drama into a timeless form.” Looking beyond the story related in Sophocles’ drama—the ancient Theban myth of the son who unknowingly kills his father and marries his mother—Oedipus: A Folklore Casebook examines variations of the tale from Africa and South America to Eastern Europe and the Pacific. Taking sociological, psychological, anthropological, and structuralist perspectives, the nineteen essays reveal the complexities and multiple meanings of this centuries-old tale. In addition to the well-known interpretations of the Oedipus myth by Sigmund Freud and James Frazer, this casebook includes insightful selections by an international group of scholars. Essays on a Serbian Oedipus legend by Friedrich Krauss and on a Gypsy version by Mirella Karpati, for example, stress the psychological stages of atonement after the Oedipus figure learns the truth about his actions. Anthropologist Melford E. Spiro investigates the myth’s appearance in Burma and the significance of the mother’s identification with the dragon (the sphinx figure). Vladimir Propp’s essay, translated into English for the first time, and Lowell Edmunds’s theoretical review discuss the relation of the Oedipus story to the larger study of folklore. The result is a comprehensive and fascinating casebook for students of folklore, classical mythology, anthropology, and sociology.
Download or read book The Death of Tolstoy written by William S. Nickell and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-15 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the middle of the night of October 28, 1910, Leo Tolstoy, the most famous man in Russia, vanished. A secular saint revered for his literary genius, pacificism, and dedication to the earth and the poor, Tolstoy had left his home in secret to embark on a final journey. His disappearance immediately became a national sensation. Two days later he was located at a monastery, but was soon gone again. When he turned up next at Astapovo, a small, remote railway station, all of Russia was following the story. As he lay dying of pneumonia, he became the hero of a national narrative of immense significance. In The Death of Tolstoy, William Nickell describes a Russia engaged in a war of words over how this story should be told. The Orthodox Church, which had excommunicated Tolstoy in 1901, first argued that he had returned to the fold and then came out against his beliefs more vehemently than ever. Police spies sent by the state tracked his every move, fearing that his death would embolden his millions of supporters among the young, the peasantry, and the intelligentsia. Representatives of the press converged on the stationhouse at Astapovo where Tolstoy lay ill, turning his death into a feverish media event that strikingly anticipated today's no-limits coverage of celebrity lives—and deaths. Drawing on newspaper accounts, personal correspondence, police reports, secret circulars, telegrams, letters, and memoirs, Nickell shows the public spectacle of Tolstoy's last days to be a vivid reflection of a fragile, anxious empire on the eve of war and revolution.
Download or read book Exile and Return written by Jonathan Stökl and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many books of the Hebrew Bible were either composed in some form or edited during the Exilic and post-Exilic periods among a community that was to identify itself as returning from Babylonian captivity. At the same time, a dearth of contemporary written evidence from Judah/Yehud and its environs renders any particular understanding of the process within its social, cultural and political context virtually impossible. This has led some to label the period a dark age or black box – as obscure as it is essential for understanding the history of Judaism. In recent years, however, archaeologists and historians have stepped up their effort to look for and study material remains from the period and integrate the local history of Yehud, the return from Exile, and the restoration of Jerusalem’s temple more firmly within the regional, and indeed global, developments of the time. At the same time, Assyriologists have also been introducing a wide range of cuneiform material that illuminates the economy, literary traditions, practices of literacy and the ideologies of the Babylonian host society – factors that affected those taken into Exile in variable, changing and multiple ways. This volume of essays seeks to exploit these various advances.
Download or read book Syllable Weight written by Matthew Gordon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-05-07 with total page 430 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is the first systematic exploration of a series of phonological phenomena previously thought to be unified under the rubric of syllable weight. Drawing on a typological survey of 400 languages, it is shown that the traditional conception that languages are internally consistent in their weight criteria across weight-based processes is not corroborated by the cross-linguistic survey. Rather than being consistent across phenomena within individual languages, weight turns out to be sensitive to the particular processes involved such that different phenomena display different distributions in weight criteria. The book goes on to explore the motivations behind the process-specific nature of weight, showing that phonetic factors explain much of the variation in weight criteria between phenomena and also the variation in criteria between languages for a single process. The book is unlike other studies in combining an extensive typological survey with detailed phonetic analysis of many languages. The finding that the widely studied phenomenon of syllable weight is not a unified phenomenon, contrary to the established view, is a significant result for the field of theoretical phonology. The book is also an important contribution to the field of phonetically-driven phonology, since it establishes a close link between the phonology of weight and various quantitative phonetic parameters.

This book was released on 2022-12-18 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Independent Research Integrated Team is a group of scientists who carried out archaeological research on the Gunung Padang Megalithic Site from 2011 to 2014 using relevant modern methodologies in archaeological research. In their research, they found several anomalies and findings that were beyond imagination, including on the outside of the giant Punden Berundak construction of Gunung Padang found, ancient cement, ancient metallurgy, anti-earthquake construction system, building orientation, strong magnetic anomaly on one of the top terraces, artefacts made of composite materials that have one magnetic pole, transmitter, keystone 'rolling stone' and so on, In addition, on the inside of Gunung Padang, a large geological element/object has a high level of hardness that has a high magnetic field, four rooms, a water channel and it is estimated that there is some kind of hydroelectric energy generator. The absolute age of Gunung Padang is based on the results of an independent laboratory analysis, which coincides with the last ice age. The civilization of the builders and users of Gunung Padang in its time was not a primitive civilization, it is very possible they are an established civilization and are on the cusp of science that may be wiped out by natural disasters and erased in human history
