Book excerpt: Since Jesus told us to be perfect, and Vatican Council II emphasized a universal call to holiness for all Christians, how do we learn to do that? One great way is to learn from and pray with the saints of the Catholic Church. We can follow in the footsteps of the ordinary Catholic men and women who fought the good fight to be holy until the end of their lives – and won that fight. The saints have been the inspiration of faithful Catholics for hundreds of years because they show us what it looks like to follow Jesus Christ despite countless challenges and obstacles. This unique book contains short biographies of multiple saints for every day of the year, including an intercessory prayer to each saint. This helps the reader to learn about, and pray with, the numerous saints of the Church, "the communion of saints" whose personalities and challenges often resonate with our own. This collection also provides wonderful resource information to learn more about individual saints, inspiring quotes from saints, and detailed explanations of Catholic terms that often befuddle us. The saints in this collection come from every period in his- tory, countries, age ranges, and vocations. They show us that holiness truly is a path open to all who seek to follow Jesus Christ. By reading about the lives of the saints each day, we can learn how to apply their life lessons to our own daily challenges. By praying daily for their help, we can ask for their spiritual help and wisdom – and point ourselves toward Heaven, where we hope to spend eternity with God.

Download or read book The Technicians of God written by Gavina and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-11-22 with total page 822 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Internet has become a battling ground between pseudo-progressive forces and the new info-industrial powers. For this motive, gifted with wide, unforeseen and timeless capacities, the unknown is been decoded in exchange for rising ancient dilemmas, long lost quests and titanic agents which clearly intents to dethrone historical charlatanism with a kind of post-modern equivalency. Through centuries of proven, controversial or even speculative historical events, this book represents a timeless voyage in search of the so required antidote for Internet, Societies and Reality! Leaving to the reader the option of discerning what can hypothetically resemble any realistic experience or what should be tolerated as fruit of incredulous imagination, this book is introduced as a truly distinct approach which, on a quest format based on a pertinent logical projection inspired on the presented web, allow us to see the end of the Internet that we have all loved but also how we can try to save it away from blindfolded systematizations and fanatic capitalism. With incredible coincidences in relation to the new realities that have been presented to our sane collective mentality upon the emergence of Internet, I’ve carefully assembled several known historical facts plus many more other pertinent ‘visions’ that might lie on our creative minds to provide a proper ‘image’ in relation to the unknown challenges which we have all been confronting since the inception of Internet. In an overall approach, this book also reveals a very thrilling fictional, not proven, and imaginary story crafted with the main objective of inspiring the ideal logical functioning for the Internet as based on the worldwide implementation of a carefully architected plan - ‘The Purpose’. After all, modern technology should not be the same as what is written in History!

Download or read book The Notebook written by Jose Saramago and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2011-05-01 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Precise observations and moments of arresting significance are rendered with pointillist detail, and together demonstrate an acute understanding of our times. Characteristically critical and uncompromising, Saramago dissects the financial crisis, deplores Israel’s punishment of Gaza, and reflects on the rise of Barack Obama. The Notebook is a unique journey into the personal and political world of one of the greatest writers of our time.

Book excerpt: Carmelite history and prayer begin with Elijah on Mount Carmel. From Elijah has descended a long line of saints who have heard the voice of the Lord calling them to leave everything and come "drink from the stream". This book is an invitation for you to come and pray with the holy men and women of the Carmelite order. The prayers and meditations in this book will help the reader listen to and pray with the saints of Carmel throughout the ages, from Elijah through the twentieth century. In these prayers are stories of particular times, places, longings, sometimes suffering, at other times ecstatic joy. These prayers allow one to enter into the most intimate depths of the souls of Carmelite saints. How better to learn than from the masters themselves. This book is made up of the prayers and meditations of more than twenty-five saints, along with a short biography of each saint, and numerous illustrations. In addition to helping one with prayer and meditation, it also provides prayer for specific topics. Whether one is a beginner or highly advanced in prayer, there is a prayer suitable for nearly every occasion. These magnificent prayers echo from prison cells, hospital beds, battlefields, and even treetops. It gives special emphasis to the prayers and meditations of the three great Carmelite mystics: Teresa of Avila, John of the Cross, and Thérèse of Lisieux. But the other twenty-two saints include a wonderful variety, with Elizabeth of the Trinity, Simon Stock, Titus Brandsma, Edith Stein, and many more. Illustrated

Download or read book Subjectivity and the Reproduction of Imperial Power written by Daniel F. Silva and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-09-19 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings forth a new contribution to the study of imperialism and colonial discourse by theorizing the emergence and function of individual identity as product and producer of imperial power. While recent decades of theoretical reflections on imperialism have yielded important understandings of how the West has repeatedly reconsolidated its power, this book seeks to grasp the complex role of subjectivity in reformulating the terms of imperial domination from early modern European expansion to late capitalism. This entails approaching Empire as a constantly shifting system of differences and meanings as well as an ontological project, a mode of historical writing, and economy of desire that repeatedly envelops the subject into the realm of western power. The analysis of an array of literary texts and cultural artifacts is undertaken by means of a theoretically eclectic approach – drawing on psychoanalysis, post-structuralism, postcolonial theory, and Marxism – with the aim of forwarding current knowledge of Empire while also contributing to different branches of critical theory. In exploring the formation of imperial subjectivity in different historical moments, Silva raises new questions related to the signification of otherness in European expansion and colonial settlement, slavery and eugenics in post-independence Americas, and late capitalist circulation of bodies and commodities. The volume also covers a broad range of geo-cultural spaces in order to locate western power in time and space. This book’s diversity in terms of approach, historical scope, and cultural contexts makes it a useful tool for research and teaching among students and scholars of disciplines including Postcolonial Studies, Colonial History, Literature, and Globalization.
