Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the fifth book in a series that I have written about the enlightenment journey and the things that affect us as we transition from the function of the mind to the flow of the universal field. It is really the nuances of time that has allowed this book to become a reality. As you read this book be gentle with yourself and understand that it is written with love and simplicity as it is translated to become more effective in the future. Resentment simple falls into the category of anger and hate. It cannot be easily understood by those who are suffering from the piercing guilt trip that fluctuate in space and time. As we traverse through life, we must be willing to relinquish the things that cause us to feel like we must always be right and have the last say when others are bringing wisdom. The journey to self-discovery really needs to be injected into the correct patterns in the mind and body. It is a simple process called the individuated self as a reflection of what the pure essence of a person really represents. This means that each of us is really a reflection of what the real self signifies. It is the reflection in the mirror that stifles the right projection of what the real self looks like. The reality is that we are more insured in the cellular structure than is really actualized in the process called life. There are many levels to the real self, and this can be distinguished as the boundaries of what someone can surpass in their lifetime. This means that I was able to supersede the individuated self to actualize myself as the embodied person who has attained enlightenment. In this regard, I am someone who can access the wisdom of the universal field and be granted the personhood of the Devine Feminine. This does not make me better than anyone else on this earth, but it allows me the gifts of healing, speaking, singing, writing, and many others to be revealed. I urge you to be gentle and kind to yourself and you get emersed in the wisdom that flows here. --- This book presents some simple techniques to help us to soften the feelings of resentment and anger that can boil over and affect our lives in many ways. We must also become more useful in the things that are flowing to us so that we are able to transcend the feelings which are associated with resentment. This book offers you some concrete yet beautifully illustrated topics to help you become more focused on the things that are really going well in your life. In this regard, you are guided to become more focused on the positive and negate the things that affect your mental stability. Millions of people in the world today are suffering from feelings associated with discounted personality and resentment. These feelings stem from a place of deep despair in the systems around them, which are not functioning at optimum. It means that somewhere along the pathway of life, the real wisdom of the universal field gets diluted with lies and deceit. This then filters down through the education, health, and religious systems, to name a few, and this, in turn, spreads out to people who do not understand the true purpose of their lives. When there is disfunction in society we tend to become too complacent with our own feelings and allow whatever is presented to us to become the norm. It means that we cannot shape a future for mankind that is full of hope and fulfillment when the fundamentals are in a state of imbalance. The imbalances are called the densities of the planetary alignment, and this can cause a shift in the collective consciousness. It is also the place where millions of people can become offended by each other’s patterns of behaviour. One of the main causes of suffering today is the lack of purpose which people are feeling today. The discontent also stems from feelings of inadequacy and disillusionment. It is a growing concern we see happening all over the world. In this regard, even though the systems of the universal field are getting upgraded with more intelligence, the density is also getting distilled in the pathways of the body. It is this recognition that causes people to become more lucid in their thought patterns and then feel lost and empty. We should never become too resentful towards our own dignity so that it stifles our sense of self. Our true self is just waiting to be envelope in love when we realize that it is never too late to come into the light of truth and dignity. As many people aspire to do better in life, millions more are falling by the wayside with feelings of hopelessness and shame. This scourge is also causing people to have deep feelings of resentment toward themselves. This can essentially destroy the fabric of society and lead to more death and decay. This is because places like social media do not provide the real solutions which are needed to change the fabric of society. It is also stifling the things that are real in the natural world because much less people are taking time to enjoy the outdoors. In fact, more people are drawn to the wrong patterns of doing things with the mind and body and this causes more discomfort and distilled feelings of shame and guilt. When we consider that the parks and pathways are free and easy we must use more time to go for walks. We can especially benefit from going to places that have waterways like the riverfront and ocean. It is free of cost and can easily be translated into progressive thinking and feelings of hope and gratefulness. This further intensifies the crack in the system that is causing people to die by the millions from the many afflictions of life. This includes natural and man-made disasters like war and famine. The real concern is that there are others in the system who completely understand the way to empower people with the truth but are not doing this due to the need to control the population of the world with illogical teaching of what the goodness of life really means for them. If more of the wisdom of the universal field is infused into the fabric of society, then many more of the injustices of the world will cease. This also means that as the density of life is enveloped in the body things in the stratosphere are more likely to become more easily distorted and fractured. This means that in the summer heat millions of people can get ill due to excessive heat and even die of heatstroke. It is incumbent upon us to use our time wisely and become more loving towards ourselves and others so that we can share in the dignity. I am a gifted healer and speaker. I bring wisdom through the Language of Light and can clear pathways in life for your so that the karmic field of your body will be drawn to the richness of life, and you will attract more abundance and prosperity. As you read my books, know that you are infinitely guided to call me or connect with me on social media. I am available to speak and heal the things that are burdensome to you and your loved ones. Just be calm and trust that goodness is flowing always.

Download or read book The Forgiving Self written by Robert Karen, Ph.D. and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2011-03-23 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating book about our struggle to forgive—and how we can—from a renowned psychologist and award-winning author. Why do we harden our hearts, even against those we want to love? Why do we find it so hard to admit being wrong? Why are the worst grudges the ones we hold against ourselves? When we nurse our resentments, Robert Karen says, we are acting from an insecure aspect of the self that harbors unresolved pain from childhood. But we also have a forgiving self which is not compliant or fake, but rather the strongest, most loving part of who we are. Through it, we are able to voice anger without doing damage, to acknowledge our own part in what has gone wrong, to see the flaws in ourselves and others as part of our humanity. Using movies, people in the news, and sessions from his practice, Karan illuminate how we can move beyond our feelings of being wronged without betraying our legitimate anger and need for repair. The forgiving self, when we are able to locate it, brings relief from compulsive self-hatred and bitterness, and allows for a re-emergence of love.

Download or read book The Healthy Compulsive written by Gary Trosclair and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-02-08 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gary Trosclair explores the power of the driven personality and the positive outcomes those with obsessive compulsive personality disorder can achieve through a mindful program of harnessing the skills that can work, and altering those that serve no one. If you were born with a compulsive personality you may become rigid, controlling, and self-righteous. But you also may become productive, energetic, and conscientious. Same disposition, but very different ways of expressing it. What determines the difference? Some of the most successful and happy people in the world are compelled by powerful inner urges that are almost impossible to resist. They’re compulsive. They’re driven. But some people with a driven personality feel compelled by shame or insecurity to use their compulsive energy to prove their worth, and they lose control of the wheel of their own life. They become inflexible and critical perfectionists who need to wield control, and they lose the point of everything they do in the process. A healthy compulsive is one whose energy and talents for achievement are used consciously in the service of passion, love and purpose. An unhealthy compulsive is one whose energy and talents for achievement have been hijacked by fear and its henchman, anger. Both are driven: one by meaning, the other by dread. The Healthy Compulsive: Healing Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder and Taking the Wheel of the Driven Personality, will serve as the ultimate user’s guide for those with a driven personality, including those who have slid into obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD). Unlike OCD, which results in specific symptoms such as repetitive hand-washing and intrusive thoughts, OCPD permeates the entire personality and dramatically affects relationships. It also requires a different approach to healing. Both scientifically informed and practical, The Healthy Compulsive describes how compulsives get off track and outlines a four-step program to help them consciously cultivate the talents and passions that are the truly compelling sources of the driven personality. Drawing from his 25 years of clinical experience as a psychotherapist and Jungian psychoanalyst, and his own personal experience as someone with a driven personality, Trosclair offers understanding, inspiring stories of change, and hope to compulsives and their partners about how to move to the healthy end of the compulsive spectrum.

Download or read book Memorializing the Past written by Heidi Grunebaum and published by Transaction Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyday Life in South Africa after the Truth and Reconciliation Commission This work is a meditation on the shaping of time and its impact on living with and understanding atrocity in South Africa in the wake of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC). It is an examination of the ways that the institutionalization of memory has managed perceptions of time and "transition" of events and happenings, of sense and emotion, of violence and recovery, of the "past" and the "new." Through this process a public language of "memory" has been carved into collective modes of meaning. It is a language that seems deprived of the hopes, dreams, and possibilities for the promise of a just and redemptive future it once nurtured. Truth commissions are profoundly implicated in the social politics of memorialization. Memory, as a conceptual, historical, and experiential discourse about "the past," relates to the ways in which cruelty is integrated into societal understandings, which include cognitive and philosophic frameworks and constructions of social meaning. The politics of historical truth, of memory and of justice, play out in unintended ways. There is not only the ongoing struggle for survivors of state terror, but also the ways that the everyday shapings of silences, the emptiness of reconciliation, and the fracturing of hope remain embedded in political life.

Download or read book The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life written by Erving Goffman and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2021-09-29 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A notable contribution to our understanding of ourselves. This book explores the realm of human behavior in social situations and the way that we appear to others. Dr. Goffman uses the metaphor of theatrical performance as a framework. Each person in everyday social intercourse presents himself and his activity to others, attempts to guide and cotnrol the impressions they form of him, and employs certain techniques in order to sustain his performance, just as an actor presents a character to an audience. The discussions of these social techniques offered here are based upon detailed research and observation of social customs in many regions.

Download or read book The Principles of Psychology Volume 1 of 2 written by William James and published by . This book was released on 2023-06-06 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of William James' masterwork, The Principles of Psychology, contains his original notes, illustrations, tables and charts which clarify the theory described and arguments made. Appearing in 1890, The Principles of Psychology was a landmark text which established psychology as a serious scientific discipline. William James' compiled a convincing, lengthy and broad thesis, devoting detail and vigorous analysis in every chapter. The text's comprehensiveness and superb presentation played a pivotal role in bringing the science of mental health closer toward the scholarly mainstream. The entire book is set out intuitively: there are two volumes, each of which has a certain number of chapters. While some chapters have sub-sections, James is careful not to make his textbook dry or convoluted in organisation. Each chapter introduces, discusses and concludes on a particular subject - whether it be the role of psychology as an academic and medical discipline, or the various functions of the human brain. Well-read and familiar with the books of his forerunners, William James nevertheless bristles with originality. Although the reader might be tempted to set aside the book for fear of it being outdated, this attitude is unjustified: the ideas pioneered by James remain as intellectually fresh and thought provoking as they did at the conclusion of the 19th century. The one area of the book belonging firmly in the past - namely the neurological experiments upon animals - stands distinct from the remainder of the principle text. Although the science of psychology has progressed enormously since William James published this book, The Principles of Psychology remains a supplementary text in many psychology courses in universities around the world. Concepts which James established, and his personal work on the spiritual element of human psychology, have and continue to inspire new books and theses by professionals and scholars in the field. William James also summarizes and presents the ideas of other, earlier figures working in the field, some of whom he admires, others he considers with disdain. All however receive hearing and citation in The Principles of Psychology. The aim for retrospective richness, as well as breadth across every major subject important in the field, further sets this textbook apart. Unlike other, abridged versions of The Principles of Psychology, this edition contains the entire text together with the many drawings and diagrams James appended in an effort to communicate better his notions. His notes are also present, and are organised and appended at the conclusion of each chapter for the reader to conveniently reference.

Download or read book Man or Citizen written by Karen Pagani and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-06-19 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The French studies scholar Patrick Coleman made the important observation that over the course of the eighteenth century, the social meanings of anger became increasingly democratized. The work of Jean-Jacques Rousseau is an outstanding example of this change. In Man or Citizen, Karen Pagani expands, in original and fascinating ways, the study of anger in Rousseau’s autobiographical, literary, and philosophical works. Pagani is especially interested in how and to what degree anger—and various reconciliatory responses to anger, such as forgiveness—functions as a defining aspect of one’s identity, both as a private individual and as a public citizen. Rousseau himself was, as Pagani puts it, “unabashed” in his own anger and indignation—toward society on one hand (corrupter of our naturally good and authentic selves) and, on the other, toward certain individuals who had somehow wronged him (his famous philosophical disputes with Voltaire and Diderot, for example). In Rousseau’s work, Pagani finds that the extent to which an individual processes, expresses, and eventually resolves or satisfies anger is very much of moral and political concern. She argues that for Rousseau, anger is not only inevitable but also indispensable, and that the incapacity to experience it renders one amoral, while the ability to experience it is a key element of good citizenship.

Download or read book Identity written by Francis Fukuyama and published by Farrar, Straus and Giroux. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times bestselling author of The Origins of Political Order offers a provocative examination of modern identity politics: its origins, its effects, and what it means for domestic and international affairs of state In 2014, Francis Fukuyama wrote that American institutions were in decay, as the state was progressively captured by powerful interest groups. Two years later, his predictions were borne out by the rise to power of a series of political outsiders whose economic nationalism and authoritarian tendencies threatened to destabilize the entire international order. These populist nationalists seek direct charismatic connection to “the people,” who are usually defined in narrow identity terms that offer an irresistible call to an in-group and exclude large parts of the population as a whole. Demand for recognition of one’s identity is a master concept that unifies much of what is going on in world politics today. The universal recognition on which liberal democracy is based has been increasingly challenged by narrower forms of recognition based on nation, religion, sect, race, ethnicity, or gender, which have resulted in anti-immigrant populism, the upsurge of politicized Islam, the fractious “identity liberalism” of college campuses, and the emergence of white nationalism. Populist nationalism, said to be rooted in economic motivation, actually springs from the demand for recognition and therefore cannot simply be satisfied by economic means. The demand for identity cannot be transcended; we must begin to shape identity in a way that supports rather than undermines democracy. Identity is an urgent and necessary book—a sharp warning that unless we forge a universal understanding of human dignity, we will doom ourselves to continuing conflict.

Download or read book The Undiscovered Self written by C. G. Jung and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These two essays, written late in Jung's life, reflect his responses to the shattering experience of World War II and the dawn of mass society. Among his most influential works, "The Undiscovered Self" is a plea for his generation--and those to come--to continue the individual work of self-discovery and not abandon needed psychological reflection for the easy ephemera of mass culture. Only individual awareness of both the conscious and unconscious aspects of the human psyche, Jung tells us, will allow the great work of human culture to continue and thrive. Jung's reflections on self-knowledge and the exploration of the unconscious carry over into the second essay, "Symbols and the Interpretation of Dreams," completed shortly before his death in 1961. Describing dreams as communications from the unconscious, Jung explains how the symbols that occur in dreams compensate for repressed emotions and intuitions. This essay brings together Jung's fully evolved thoughts on the analysis of dreams and the healing of the rift between consciousness and the unconscious, ideas that are central to his system of psychology. This paperback edition of Jung's classic work includes a new foreword by Sonu Shamdasani, Philemon Professor of Jung History at University College London.
