Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If I had learned anything during the war, it was that our walk in the sun is brief, and so I resolved to wander from monastery to monastery, a sojourner in the world of last things." So poet and journalist Christopher Merrill tells us near the beginning of this gripping account of the transforming pilgrimages he made to Mount Athos, in Greece, in the aftermath of the Balkan wars of the 1990s. "It was time for me to come to terms with the way my life had turned out: the love I had squandered, the misgivings I had about my vocation and my faith, the dread I felt at every turn." In despair and longing to end his spiritual desolation, Merrill became one of a handful of visitors permitted entry to Mount Athos--a mysterious land that for more than a thousand years has been the secret heart of the Eastern Orthodox Church. There, amid the beautiful terrain, the ancient rhythms, and the spiritual rigor of this holy place, he found a haven. As Merrill's story unfolds, we, too, hike the rough trails of Athos, exploring a place and a way of life scarcely altered since medieval times. We share encounters with monks and spiritual seekers; visit Athos's twenty monasteries, where exquisite art treasures are sequestered; make our way to lonely hermitages that clutch the cliffs above the sea. Like Merrill, we come to consider existence in a new and different light. Part journal of personal discovery, part meditation upon the history and traditions of the contemplative life, Things of the Hidden God takes us where the temporal and the eternal intersect, where community and solitude coexist, and where centuries-old practices offer insight for how to live today.

Book The Holy Mountain

  • Author : Alessandra Santos
  • Publisher : Columbia University Press
  • Release : 2017-08-08
  • ISBN : 0231851081
  • Pages : 171 pages

Download or read book The Holy Mountain written by Alessandra Santos and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2017-08-08 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alejandro Jodorowsky's El Topo helped inaugurate the midnight movie phenomenon. Its success spawned The Holy Mountain, through interventions by John Lennon and Allen Klein. After a scandalous release and a 16-month midnight career, The Holy Mountain was relegated to the underground world of fan bootlegs for over thirty years until its limited restored release in 2007. This short study reveals how The Holy Mountain, a poetic, hilarious, and anarchist cult film by an international auteur, anchored in post-1968 critiques, is – at the same time – an archaeological capsule of the counterculture movement, a timely subversion of mystical tenets, and one of the most mysterious films in the history of world cinema.

Download or read book Gate of Heaven written by Michael Lustig and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-15 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gate of Heaven is the account of Mount Moriah in Jerusalem, which is universally revered by the followers of Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It is the "Gate of Heaven," through which prayers and blessings pass between Heaven and Earth. The book chronicles the holy mountain's extraordinary history, from Biblical Creation through the consecration of the famed Temple of Solomon, which held the sacred Ark of the Covenant of the Tabernacle. It investigates the disappearance of ten Israelite tribes to places unknown beyond the "River Gozen," recounting the Babylonian Exile of the remaining tribes, and the unsolved loss of the Ark and other Temple treasures. It also details the struggles of returning Jews to build a Second Temple on Mount Moriah, preserving their freedom and beliefs in a new Province of Judah and other places of refuge. Authentic images of Biblical monarchs and events, discovered in ancient ruins and excavations, tell an epic tale of foreign domination, Jewish resistance and redemption. They illustrate the endless turmoil that filled the centuries before the construction of the majestic Temple of Herod, whose surviving remains can still be seen on Mount Moriah today. Trusted sources are carefully examined to explore the mountain's oldest and deepest secrets. They help reveal Mount Moriah in all its former glory, and bring its fascinating story vibrantly to life.

Book Climbing the Holy Mountain of Recovery

Download or read book Climbing the Holy Mountain of Recovery written by Adrian Auler and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2015-12-02 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story is about the development of my heroin addiction and my recovery from it. I struggled to escape from addiction for 17 years, but only succeeded after an ibogaine treatment. It is autobiographical, but I only describe traumatic episodes that contributed to addiction and sketch the highlights and milestones in my recovery. It is a memoir, as it offers a thematic view of my life and is moderate in scope; and a personal essay in which I offer insights about societys role in addiction. My intent is that addicts and their loved ones may better understand the nature of addiction so their approaches to treatment are better informed and more compassionate. At 66, I am a gentleman/hipster/Seeker and scholar, but Im not an armchair academic who wrote this book from a library: I was an addict for 22 years! Now I am blessed to be alive and have 18 years clean. My mission is to help addicts by educating the public and the professional community about addictions complexity and the efficacy of ibogaine for its treatment. I hope my story supports a change in social and medical attitudes so that the unheard voices of addicts will be honored, instead of just seeing them as social problems. Addiction put my life into suspended animation when I had a third of the credits I needed for a bachelors degree. 27 years later I returned to school; now I have bachelors degrees in Anthropology and Psychology and a Masters degree in East-West Psychology (EWP). I am currently a PhD. candidate in EWP at the California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, California.

Book Sacred Secrets

    Book Details:
  • Author : Mike Neville
  • Publisher : The History Press
  • Release : 2012-06-01
  • ISBN : 0752490451
  • Pages : 271 pages

Download or read book Sacred Secrets written by Mike Neville and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2012-06-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who were Tubalcain, Aholiab and Zabud and what is their significance for the Freemason? There is a general interest in the rituals of Freemasonry, generated in part by the apparently obscure references they contain. This is the only book that offers a guide to the stories used in Masonic ritual and their links to the Bible and Christianity. The new Mason is directed to a ‘serious contemplation of the Volume of the Sacred Law’ — but that is easier said than done without a grounding in the Scriptures, something that fewer and fewer people have. The historical and geographical setting of the Bible is explained here, making such contemplation easier for Mason and non-Mason alike. Mike Neville has systematically cross-referenced the most influential Chapters of the Bible to the ceremonies. It is his intention to get Freemasons to understand the ritual — not just to memorise and regurgitate — as well as to elucidate for the non-Mason. Sacred Secrets will aid the clergy, theologians and any other person interested in Freemasonry to see the links between ritual and scripture.

Book Inherit the Holy Mountain

  • Author : Mark Stoll
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2015-04-30
  • ISBN : 0190230886
  • Pages : 352 pages

Download or read book Inherit the Holy Mountain written by Mark Stoll and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Inherit the Holy Mountain, historian Mark Stoll introduces us to the religious roots of the American environmental movement. Religion, he shows, provided environmentalists both with deeply-embedded moral and cultural ways of viewing the world and with content, direction, and tone for the causes they espoused. Stoll discovers that specific denominational origins corresponded with characteristic sets of ideas about nature and the environment as well as distinctive aesthetic reactions to nature, as can be seen in key works of art analyzed throughout the book. Stoll also provides insight into the possible future of environmentalism in the United States, concluding with an examination of the current religious scene and what it portends for the future. By debunking the supposed divide between religion and American environmentalism, Inherit the Holy Mountain opens up a fundamentally new narrative in environmental studies.
