Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sanctuary of the Soul provides a bold, new interpretation of spiritual life, which C. T. Lewis describes as an interiorization of the practices of temple worship established in the Torah of Moses. Through a searching analysis of the Old and New Testaments, the author leads the reader through the primary stages in the journey of the soul, from its mystical union with God through the sacrificial work of Christ, to an interior life of worship expressed in the spiritual gifts of incense, light, and food. The Sanctuary of the Soul is scholarly, intriguing, and refreshing, the kind of book that will repay many trips back to it.

Download or read book A Psychotherapist s Sanctuaries from Soul Sadness written by Peter A. Olsson and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2016-12-29 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As psychotherapists, our patients share with us the joys and sorrows, pain and pettiness, betrayal and cruelty, the lies and misery in their lives and relationships. We listen carefully and empathically. Between the lines of dialogue, however, therapists hover along a continuum of self-protection located between soul-sadness at one extreme, and a cool, isolated detachment at the other. Natural disasters, genocide, suicide bombings, hostage executions or beheadings, and sick and starving children leap to our attention in the media. Our patients often mention these events, and we try to listen empathically to their feelings and fantasies about them. We suppress or deny our own strong emotions so we can work with our patients. But our feelings can accumulate and lead to soul-sadness. Psychotherapists can use art, music, poetry, or creative writing to help contain and manage soul-sadness. This works by discharging, soothing, containing, or sublimating these realities in our daily work life. During 45-plus years of practicing teaching and writing about medicine, psychiatry, psychoanalysis, and psychotherapy, I have come to realize how draining psychotherapy is for the therapist. The use of writing as a means of catharsis and processing of stress has been valuable for me, so I wanted to share writing as a means of healing soul-sadness and preventing burn-out. Prevention soul-sadness and burnout in psychotherapists is very important for us and our patients.
Download or read book Wild Souls written by Emma Marris and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2022 Rachel Carson Environment Book Award * Winner of the 2022 Science in Society Journalism Award (Books) * Finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Prize “Thoughtful, insightful, and wise, Wild Souls is a landmark work.”--Ed Yong, author of An Immense World "Fascinating . . . hands-on philosophy, put to test in the real world . . . Marris believes that our idea of wildness--our obsession with purity--is misguided. No animal remains untouched by human hands . . . the science isn't the hard part. The real challenge is the ethics, the act of imagining our appropriate place in that world." --Outside Magazine From an acclaimed environmental writer, a groundbreaking and provocative new vision for our relationships with--and responsibilities toward--the planet's wild animals. Protecting wild animals and preserving the environment are two ideals so seemingly compatible as to be almost inseparable. But in fact, between animal welfare and conservation science there exists a space of underexamined and unresolved tension: wildness itself. When is it right to capture or feed wild animals for the good of their species? How do we balance the rights of introduced species with those already established within an ecosystem? Can hunting be ecological? Are any animals truly wild on a planet that humans have so thoroughly changed? No clear guidelines yet exist to help us resolve such questions. Transporting readers into the field with scientists tackling these profound challenges, Emma Marris tells the affecting and inspiring stories of animals around the globe--from Peruvian monkeys to Australian bilbies, rare Hawai'ian birds to majestic Oregon wolves. And she offers a companionable tour of the philosophical ideas that may steer our search for sustainability and justice in the non-human world. Revealing just how intertwined animal life and human life really are, Wild Souls will change the way we think about nature-and our place within it.

Download or read book Soul Springs written by Lotus Linton and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2002-08 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is the harbinger of the Age of Aquarius called the Waterbearer? Could it be that the true Grail of the spiritual quest is not so much a cup, but the water within it? Soul Springs: Seeking Self in the Waters of the World, tells of a uniquely female spiritual journey that has taken the form of a water quest on several continents. Searching for truth within many cultures and landscapes, the author was irresistibly drawn to watery places. She discovered that water is universally understood to be a feminine element. Soul Springs is a collection of vignettes revealing spiritual insights gained at the brink of water—at a goddess well in Cornwall, in the Grand Canyon, or at a temple by the sea in Bali. Each story is titled with a familiar religious term, such as "Blessing," "Communion" or "Grace," and evolves into a distinctly feminine, sometimes unorthodox, perspective as revealed to the author by her inner voice. Soul Springs appeals to the inner gnosis that is available to each woman, the liquid light of her own Soul’s wisdom.

Download or read book Manual of Ethnography written by Marcel Mauss and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2007 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marcel Mauss (1872-1950) was the leading social anthropologist in Paris between the world wars, and his Manuel d'ethnographie, dating from that period, is the longest of all his texts. Despite having had four editions in France, the Manuel has hitherto been unavailable in English. This contrasts with his essays, longer and shorter, many of which have long enjoyed the status of classics within anthropology. We are therefore pleased to present, in the English language for the first time, this extraordinary work that is based on the more than thirty lectures Mauss delivered each year under the title "Instructions in descriptive ethnography, intended for travelers, administrators and missionaries." Despite his dates, Mauss's treatment of fundamental questions, such as how to conceptualize and classify the range of social phenomena known to us from history and ethnography, has lost none of its freshness.

Download or read book Snatched Into Paradise 2 Cor 12 1 10 written by James Buchanan Wallace and published by Walter de Gruyter. This book was released on 2011 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2 Corinthians 12:1-10, Paul claims to have been snatched into paradise but then tells how he received a "thorn in the flesh". Many recent scholars contend that Paul belittles ecstatic experiences such as the ascent to paradise. This monograph places 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 in the contexts of ancient ascent traditions as well as other accounts of extraordinary religious experience in Paul's letters, and it engages premodern interpretation of the ascent. This study argues that for Paul, extraordinary experiences such as the ascent enable self-transcending love for God and neighbors.
