Book excerpt: A novel of the thirteenth-century Mongolian warrior, and the women who surrounded him, that offers “a panoramic view of the charismatic leader” (Library Journal). In 1167, in the harsh homeland of Mongol tribes, a child was born who was to change the course of human history. His father named him Temujin, but the world knows him as Genghis Khan. Set amid the barbaric splendor of the Mongol hordes, Ruler of the Sky tells the tale of the warrior who forged one of the greatest and most terrifying armies the world had ever seen, and conquered the world from Peking to Persia. Not only is this the story of Genghis Khan, it is also the story of those who were closest to him, especially the women who played such an important role in his life. From the windswept plains of Mongolia to the opulence of the Chinese court, Ruler of the Sky is unforgettable.

Download or read book Ruler of the Sky written by Padma Angmo and published by Blue Rose Publishers. This book was released on 2023-10-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From something as simple as the wingbeat of a butterfly to the fascinating world of quantum physics, this poetry and prose book is embroidered with colourful threads of experiences that decorate the empty fabric of existence. The most important inspiration for this book is the dark thread of grief—ecological grief. This poetry and prose book follows on the parallel, the Odyssey of Love­‒‒the most powerful but volatile energy, dreamed into existence by the state of Nothingness. The Fall of Love from the void causes a cosmic explosion (Big Bang) wherein Love disintegrates into infinite pieces. The broken pieces of Love take the form of infinite universes and realities. In one of the realities, the fragments of Love form our Universe. And in a cosmic dawn, Love burst into being in all life forms on Earth. The parallel odysseys unravel as Love evolves in the form of humanity and seeks to reclaim its power. Thus, humanity is Love personified, and each one of us is the manifestation of Love. In this book, Padma Angmo sensitizes readers to the devastating effects of habitat and biodiversity loss on both local and global ecosystems. As an indigenous writer from Ladakh, she amplifies marginalized voices by addressing the impact of environmental degradation on her community. She prioritizes mental health and healing as a crucial foundation for resilience and collective global climate action. Ruler of the Sky invites the readers on a healing journey to reclaim our power. This collection of poetry and prose is divided into six parts—  Before the Big Bang  The Big Bang  Equilibrium  The Big Crunch  The Big Enigma  The Big Freeze

Download or read book The Power of Stars written by Bryan E. Penprase and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-05-05 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Completely revised and updated, this new edition provides a readable, beautifully illustrated journey through world cultures and the vibrant array of sky mythology, creation stories, models of the universe, temples and skyscrapers that each culture has created to celebrate and respond to the power of the night sky. Sections on the archaeoastronomy of South Asia and South East Asia have been expanded, with original photography and new research on temple alignments in Southern India, and new material describing the astronomical practices of Indonesia, Malaysia and other Southeast Asian countries. Beautiful photographs of temples in India and Asia have been added, as well as new diagrams explaining the alignment of these structures and the astronomical underpinnings of temples within the Pallava and Chola cultures. From new fieldwork in the Four Corners region of North America, Dr. Penprase has included accounts of Pueblo skywatching and photographs of ceremonial kivas that help elucidate the rich astronomical knowledge of the Pueblo people. The popular “Archaeoastronomy of Skyscrapers” section of the book has been updated as well, with new interpretations of skyscrapers in Indonesia, Taiwan and China.With the rapid pace of discovery in astronomy and astrophysics, entirely new perspectives are emerging about dark matter, inflation and the future of the universe. The Power of Stars puts these discoveries in context and describes how they fit into the modern perspective of cosmology, which has arisen from the universal human response to the sky that has inspired both ancient and modern cultures.

Download or read book Contextualization of Sufi Spirituality in Seventeenth and Eighteenth Century China written by David Lee and published by James Clarke & Company. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liu Zhi (c1662-c1730), a well-known Muslim scholar writing in Chinese, published outstanding theological works, short treatises, and short poems on Islam. While traditional Arabic and Persian Islamic texts used unfamiliar concepts to explain Islam, Liu Zhi translated both text and concepts into Chinese culture. In this erudite volume, David Lee examines how Liu Zhi integrated the basic religious living of the monotheistic Hui Muslims into their pluralistic Chinese culture. Liu Zhi discussed the Prophet Muhammad in Confucian terms, and his work served as a bridge between peoples. This book is an in-depth study of Liu Zhi's contextualization of Islam within Chinese scholarship that argues his merging of the two never deviated from the basic principles of Islamic belief.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Here in the US, we're having difficult discussions about who we should monumentalize, the political implications of our statues, or what to do with monuments that no longer reflect our ideals. In a way, this book looks at how the Maya dealt with these and related issues. The author explores how the ancient Maya engaged with their history by using, reusing, altering, and burying stone sculptures. O'Neil shows, for example, how the ancient Maya repurposed stelae that were damaged by their enemies. In some cases, they would break the stelae to signify a change in their status, and bury them with others so that the buried monuments connected with those still standing in specific sacred sites. Infused with agency, the sculptures retained ceremonial meaning. O'Neil explores how those breakages and other, different human interactions, amidst unstable religious, political, and historical contexts, changed the sculptures' "lives.""--
