Download or read book Spirituality for the Solitary written by Mark G. Boyer and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2023-06-15 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about spirituality for the solitary, those people who live alone. In the past they were known as hermits, eremites, and anchorites; today they are known as pioneers, mountain men and women, widows, widowers, and people who choose to live alone in the country or in the city. They spend their days like other ordinary people taking care of daily chores, but also spending some time in prayer and meditation. The solitary life is alive and well, and it appears in all world religions. The solitary seeks solitude for prayer, meditation, self-awareness, and personal development. Living alone in a house or apartment begins to transform one’s life; a person sets off on the path of purpose, the path of integrity, the path of transcendence that lifts his or her heart, mind, and spirit to the divine presence, God, who transforms more and more as the solitary dives deeper and deeper. This book provides an in-depth exploration of spirituality for the solitary along with eight-part exercises designed to further enhance solitary spirituality. Included are prayers, psalms in contemporary English, and celebrations using natural things, such as water, oil, and fire.

Download or read book Practical Solitary Magic written by Nancy B. Watson and published by Weiser Books. This book was released on 1996-01-15 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accessible guide for beginners interested in practicing magic safely and effectively on their own. Many students of magic don’t want to be tied to a particular group or tradition, but prefer to search, experiment, and grow on their own. Here, at last, is an eminently sane and readable handbook that gives not only the how, but the why and wherefore, of the materials and methods of the solitary magician. In Practical Solitary Magic, Nancy Watson combines a concise introduction to the psychology and ethics of magic with a thorough treatment of its mechanisms. In a lively style, enhanced by personal anecdote and thoughtful insight, she initiates novices into the rudiments of ritual and guides them in their first steps down the magical path. Drawing on an architectural analogy, Watson demystifies the practice of magic by providing a structural view of magical operations. She explores the techniques and accoutrements of each of the four magical planes, leading her readers through the various chambers of a four-tiered edifice, and sweeping away layers of accumulated cobwebs from topics shrouded in esoteric jargon. Oracle divination, numerology, and magical incantation; visualization, clearing, and prayer; archetypes, elementals, and god-forms—all come to life with Watson’s pragmatic analysis. She closes with a careful warning to her readers to avoid all those who would attempt to “re-mystify” the craft. Watson’s clear narrative and vivid imagery illuminate all the corners of her magical mansion with the light of common sense and folk history. Not only will you enjoy your guided tour, you’ll be tempted to take up residence there.

Download or read book Solitary Journey written by Lee Ann Austin and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-01-20 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solitary Journey Hilary Blake, a kindergarten teacher from Branson, Missouri, suffered through a six-year marriage with a man who complained about everything he could think of, including the way she dusted the ivy. She eventually discovered he did not love her when she was six months into her first pregnancy. He denied the baby was his and announced he was gay. His abuse caused Hilary to loose her baby, and Hilary divorced him. She was on the verge of a nervous breakdown when she decided to take a trip through Texas as soon as school was out. She had almost three months vacation time and she started on her journey through the Lone Star State. When she met Josh Timmons, who was supremely handsome, she decided to relax and experience sexual pleasure for a change. Though Josh usually used protection, he neglected to use any with Hilary, and because she had been married so long, she didn't think of it. This resulted in pregnancy. Josh was extremely jealous of Hilary and he was eager to marry her. But he was still in the University of Texas working on his Ph.D. Hilary refused to let him quit school until his education was complete. She journeyed through Texas looking for a teaching job, which seemed to evade her at every stop. She did encounter another man, Ed Wheatly, who seemed perfect. Before it was over, she questioned the wisdom of marrying either man. She decided to have and rear her child alone, if only she could find a job. It didn't turn out that way at all. The trip she took was indeed a Solitary Journey.

Download or read book The Solitary Sphere in the Age of Virgil written by Aaron J. Kachuck and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-29 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Solitary Sphere in the Age of Virgil uses an enriched tripartite model of Roman culture-touching not only the public and the private, but also the solitary-in order to present a radical re-interpretation of Latin literature and of the historical causes of this third sphere's relative invisibility in scholarship. By connecting Cosmos and Imperium to the Individual, the solitary sphere was not so much a way of avoiding politics, as a political education in itself. As re-imagined by literature in this age literature, this sphere was an essential space for the formation of the new Roman citizen of the Augustan revolution, and was behind many of the notable features of the literary revolution of Virgil's age: the expansion of the possibilities of the book of poetry, the birth of the literary cursus, new coordinations of cosmology and politics within strictly organized schemes, the attraction of first-person genres, and the subjective style. Through close readings of Cicero's late works and the oeuvres of Virgil, Horace, and Propertius and the works of other authors in the age of Virgil, The Solitary Sphere thus presents a revelatory reassessment of the classicism of classical Roman literature, and contributes to the study of pre-modern culture more generally, especially for traditions that have taken antiquity as too fixed a point in their own literary, religious, and cultural histories.

Download or read book Solitary written by Albert Woodfox and published by Grove Press. This book was released on 2019-03-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An uncommonly powerful memoir about four decades in confinement . . . A profound book about friendship [and] solitary confinement in the United States.” —New York Times Finalist for the Pulitzer Prize and the National Book Award Solitary is the unforgettable life story of a man who served more than four decades in solitary confinement—in a 6-foot by 9-foot cell, twenty-three hours a day, in Louisiana’s notorious Angola prison—all for a crime he did not commit. That Albert Woodfox survived at all was a feat of extraordinary endurance. That he emerged whole from his odyssey within America’s prison and judicial systems is a triumph of the human spirit. While behind bars in his early twenties, Albert was inspired to join the Black Panther Party because of its social commitment and code of living. He was serving a fifty-year sentence in Angola for armed robbery when, on April 17, 1972, a white guard was killed. Albert and another member of the Panthers were accused of the crime and immediately put in solitary confinement. Without a shred of evidence against them, their trial was a sham of justice. Decades passed before Albert was finally released in February 2016. Sustained by the solidarity of two fellow Panthers, Albert turned his anger into activism and resistance. The Angola 3, as they became known, resolved never to be broken by the corruption that effectively held them for decades as political prisoners. Solitary is a clarion call to reform the inhumanity of solitary confinement in the United States and around the world.

Download or read book Solitary Comrade written by Joan D. Hedrick and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2018-08-25 with total page 327 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hedrick examines London's inner life, primarily as it is revealed in his art, to discover the man concealed beneath the public persona. Although London was wealthy, famous, and one of the last great self-made men in America, Hedrick shows that he was always torn by his troubled relationship to his lower-class origins. He lived in painful awareness of the contradictions between the man's world of the lower classes--at the workplace, on the road, and in prison--and the woman's world of the middle class in which he took refuge.
