This book was released on 2013-12-13 with total page 243 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When one is been robbed of all his properties by darkness, including his soul and all his entire life and family, he cannot fight darkness to reclaim all what he is being robbed. He is totally defeated because the power of darkness is stronger than him. Sitting in limbo for someone to bail you from your misery, which you call it a miracle in a matter of a second is insignificant. What we should understand is driving a negative energy force out of the front door, another negative force enters through the window with an angelic appearance with sweet melody of the taste of music you would like to hear. So waiting and sitting in limbo and depending on someone to bail you, you are living in a fantasy world that consists of hallucinated clergy and day dreamers. No one can create a paradise for you, rather it is you who hold the key to your freedom and eternity. When darkness steals all your properties and soul, just hang all your worries, just like one hangs his clothes on a wall. Fight, cling to the universal light for we do look or search for our missing items in darkness with the light. You cannot fight darkness with darkness, neither quench fire with fire but with water. Light is the main source and a combatant to darkness. Without light in you, no matter what miracle for a better change, sooner or later, the negativity covers or takes back the center seat. But once you fight to claim an unquenchable light, there will be no more loopholes in you or a back door for the return of darkness. To survive all the great battles, you must conquer and rule yourself with the inner peace of light to reinstate the lost innocence that is not borrowed identity but the undefiled. Peace and love. Amen Amen Amen

Download or read book An Alchemy of Mind written by Diane Ackerman and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-10-30 with total page 341 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the New York Times bestselling author of The Zookeeper's Wife, an ambitious and enlightening work that combines an artist's eye with a scientist's erudition to illuminate, as never before, the magic and mysteries of the human mind. Long treasured by literary readers for her uncommon ability to bridge the gap between art and science, celebrated scholar-artist Diane Ackerman returns with the book she was born to write. Her dazzling new work, An Alchemy of Mind, offers an unprecedented exploration and celebration of the mental fantasia in which we spend our days—and does for the human mind what the bestselling A Natural History of the Senses did for the physical senses. Bringing a valuable female perspective to the topic, Diane Ackerman discusses the science of the brain as only she can: with gorgeous, immediate language and imagery that paint an unusually lucid and vibrant picture for the reader. And in addition to explaining memory, thought, emotion, dreams, and language acquisition, she reports on the latest discoveries in neuroscience and addresses controversial subjects like the effects of trauma and male versus female brains. In prose that is not simply accessible but also beautiful and electric, Ackerman distills the hard, objective truths of science in order to yield vivid, heavily anecdotal explanations about a range of existential questions regarding consciousness, human thought, memory, and the nature of identity.

She brings depth of voice to the voiceless, and through her we sing a powerful song.” —Carrie Mae Weems Of Cuban-Jamaican descent, Aja Monet is an internationally established poet, performer, singer, songwriter, educator, and human rights advocate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last few centuries, science has usurped domains of knowledge that were once the province of religion. At the same time, however, both science and religion have enforced strict boundaries throughout. Science can describe the world to us, but it cannot tell us about meaning or values. This is a compelling case for breaching this barrier - in effect, for a reunification of science and religion.

Download or read book The Educated Imagination and Other Writings on Critical Theory 1933 1963 written by Northrop Frye and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2006-12-15 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1933, Northrop Frye was a recent university graduate, beginning to learn his craft as a literary essayist. By 1963, with the publication of The Educated Imagination, he had become an international academic celebrity. In the intervening three decades, Frye wrote widely and prodigiously, but it is in the papers and lectures collected in this installment of the Collected Works of Northrop Frye, that the genesis of a distinguished literary critic can be seen. Here is Frye tracing the first outlines of a literary cosmology that would culminate in The Anatomy of Criticism (1958) and shapeThe Great Code (1982) and Words with Power (1990). At the same time that Frye garnered such international acclaim, he was also a working university teacher, lecturing in the University of Toronto's English Language and Literature program. In her lively introduction, Germaine Warkentin links Frye's evolution as a critic with his love of music, his passionate concern for his students, and his growing professional ambition. The writings included in this volume show how Frye integrated ideas into the work that would consolidate the fame that Fearful Symmetry (1947) had first established.

Download or read book Religious Experience in Modern Poetry written by Ewa Panecka and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2019-10-17 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study on religious experience in modern poetry features innovatory and accessible close readings of some of the most beloved authors of English verse. In today’s seemingly secular age, religion still remains a highly contested subject. The selection of texts analysed here is representative of a wide spectrum of attitudes, including a sharply critical refusal to acknowledge Christianity as the basis of civilization. Some poets see national religion as a framework for cultural identity, while others worship nature as the omnipotent Force of Life, trying to create their own gods. Rather than reducing poetry to a background for philosophical analysis or theological deliberation, this book presents diverse modes of the poetic endeavor to capture and convey the divine. The chapters provide a range of perspectives on individual experience rendered into poetry as a subtle relationship between faith, perception and language. The text will be of interest to anyone looking for new ways of reading poetry as a spiritual guest.

In poems complex in meaning yet clear in statement and depiction, Hirshfield explores questions of identity, aging, death, and of time and the variegated gifts brought by its relentless passage. Whether meditating upon a button, the role of habit in our lives, or the elusive nature of our relationship to sleep, Hirshfield brings each subject into a surprising and magnified existence.

Download or read book When You Thought I Wasn t Looking written by Mary Korzan and published by Andrews McMeel Publishing. This book was released on 2004-03 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mary Rita Schilke Korzan wrote a poem to her mother 24 years ago, thanking her for all she had done as a mother, friend, and role model. She gave the poem to her mother and, a few months later, offered it as a tribute when Mary and her husband were married. So many wedding guests asked for a copy that Mary included one in her thank-you notes.Then began the strange and heartwarming journey of Mary's poem to her mom. Friends passed it on to those they knew. A minister in her hometown couldn't recall who gave it to him, but he included the by-then "anonymously written" poem in his book about loving others. Another author picked it up from there for her compilation of heartfelt works, and Mary finally noticed her poem, now listed as "Author Unknown," in A Fourth Course of Chicken Soup for the Soul, which her husband and children gave her as a Mother's Day gift.With this new book, readers have the chance to experience When You Thought I Wasn't Looking in its entirety and from its creator. This is the special kind of book that reminds us that sometimes the little things we do "just because" mean more to someone than we can ever know. Those little things teach love, compassion, and understanding. In other words, they're priceless. This sweet gift book brings that lesson home to the heart.

Download or read book The Lesbian Muse and Poetic Identity 1889 1930 written by Sarah Parker and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-10-06 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history the poetic muse has tended to be (a passive) female and the poet male. This dynamic caused problems for late Victorian and twentieth-century women poets; how could the muse be reclaimed and moved on from the passive role of old? Parker looks at fin-de-siècle and modernist lyric poets to investigate how they overcame these challenges and identifies three key strategies: the reconfiguring of the muse as a contemporary instead of a historical/mythological figure; the muse as a male figure; and an interchangeable poet/muse relationship, granting agency to both.

Most people have different perceptions of life even those whom may be going threw similar situations. There may be someone struggling with things and looking for answers. Most people interpret life as a luxury of hell. If I paint my face and talk a good talk and give you a presentation that my life is perfect, well is it? In this book I try to hit on all the topics that the heart, mind, and soul may cover up from the rest of the world. -Tameka M. Griffi n-Williams
