This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Enjoying life, living richly and happily successful is great. However, all attainments and accomplishment are not about life-engineering but ‘I-Management’. Primary success is Self-Actualization. Sadly, I or Self is the worst-handled enterprise of humanity. In new millennium, we need to unlearn the archaic yet all-embracing stupidities of self. This ‘Be Yourself’ I-Expressions need reality-check Science as well as spiritualism says, ‘Self’, this unputdownable sense of ‘I’ is the greatest mysticism. Still, people are madly in never-ending pursuits of ‘self-indulgence’ and ‘I-Centric’ gratifications and attainments. Worse, there is this calamitous contemporaneous prescription of ‘Be Yourself’, as if ‘Self’ is the definitive genius of everythingness! Worst, this viscerality is being invoked in celebrity-mode, market-mounted ‘I-Iconism’ as ultimate empowerment. The progenies of ‘Be Yourself’ viscerality – solipsism, anti-intellectualism and anti-rationality are unleashing loads of conflicts, confusion and chaos in societies. Time to unlearn the stupidities of ‘I’. Time to unravel the malaise of ‘I-Iconism’. Time to redeem the true ‘I’. Why? How? This eBook has it all.

Download or read book I Am A Woman And Not Stupidly Touchy About It written by Santosh Jha and published by Santosh Jha. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I am a woman, but it is always ‘I’, which shall decide for me ‘How I Am A Woman’ and not the populist generic identities. Womanhood is a blessing but what ‘I’ accept ‘womanhood’ and ‘empowerment’ as, is definitively a conscious-judicious enterprise of ‘power’ I acquire through personal initiatives. Man or woman, I’m always a good, amicable, honest, sincere and compassionate person, transcending generic identities. Identity as a woman matters, but personality defines me as a person and constructs my wellness and excellence. ‘How I Am’ matters more for me than ‘Who I Am’ as I am an empowered woman, not in emotional-reactive, but objectively logical way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world we live in; is what it is, neither good nor bad. It is people, who are the ‘Theatre’ of all pains as well as joys. The human mind is the most capable and instinctively galvanized mechanism to solve big problems. Still, the same human consciousness is the most potent dilemma. The core trouble is, modern day problems are so ‘dressed up’; partly by our complex environment and partly by our consciousness that we fail to see the ‘naked’ reality of the nature of problems. We can see them clearly, if we ‘undress’ them. It is an art, we all can master. How?

Download or read book Help Your Peace Time Up For Joy written by Santosh Jha and published by Santosh Jha. This book was released on 2017-06-01 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is over supply of wisdom for every one of us. Everyone is ever willing to offer advice and prescription of ‘shoulds’. However, in contemporary milieus of conflicts, chaos and confusion, for an individual self, there seems no definitive road to happiness. There is but a dependable alternative of personal peace and poise. Milieus cannot facilitate happiness, yet self can live in peace. How? If you accept that your own evolution to peace and lasting wellness must never be energized by random elements of milieus but by planned and controlled elements of higher consciousness, your own aware self, then this eBook has utility and fruition for you. Happiness is elusive in external milieus and an individual self is too insignificant to change things in the complex and chaotic society and culture. However, what everyone can definitively do is create a personalized milieu of self-designed cognition and causality within mind consciousness to live in perpetuity of peace and poise. This book is all about this mechanism and process.

Download or read book Providing Compassionate Healthcare written by Sue Shea and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the scope and sophistication of contemporary health care, there is increasing international concern about the perceived lack of compassion in its delivery. Citing evidence that when the basic needs of patients are attended to with kindness and understanding, recovery often takes place at a faster level, patients cope more effectively with the self-management of chronic disorders and can more easily overcome anxiety associated with various disorders, this book looks at how good care can be put back into the process of caring. Beginning with an introduction to the historical values associated with the concept of compassion, the text goes on to provide a bio-psycho-social theoretical framework within which the concept might be further explained. The third part presents thought-provoking case studies and explores the implementation and impact of compassion in a range of healthcare settings. The fourth part investigates the role that organizations and their structures can play in promoting or hindering the provision of compassion. The book concludes by discussing how compassion may be taught and evaluated, and suggesting ways for increasing the attention paid to compassion in health care. Developing a multi-disciplinary theory of compassionate care, and underpinned by empirical examples of good practice, this volume is a valuable resource for all those interesting in understanding and supporting compassion in health care, including advanced students, academics and practitioners within medicine, nursing, psychology, allied health, sociology and philosophy.

Download or read book HashtagActivism written by Sarah J. Jackson and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “well-researched, nuanced” study of the rise of social media activism explores how marginalized groups use Twitter to advance counter-narratives, preempt political spin, and build diverse networks of dissent (Ms.) The power of hashtag activism became clear in 2011, when #IranElection served as an organizing tool for Iranians protesting a disputed election and offered a global audience a front-row seat to a nascent revolution. Since then, activists have used a variety of hashtags, including #JusticeForTrayvon, #BlackLivesMatter, #YesAllWomen, and #MeToo to advocate, mobilize, and communicate. In this book, Sarah Jackson, Moya Bailey, and Brooke Foucault Welles explore how and why Twitter has become an important platform for historically disenfranchised populations, including Black Americans, women, and transgender people. They show how marginalized groups, long excluded from elite media spaces, have used Twitter hashtags to advance counternarratives, preempt political spin, and build diverse networks of dissent. The authors describe how such hashtags as #MeToo, #SurvivorPrivilege, and #WhyIStayed have challenged the conventional understanding of gendered violence; examine the voices and narratives of Black feminism enabled by #FastTailedGirls, #YouOKSis, and #SayHerName; and explore the creation and use of #GirlsLikeUs, a network of transgender women. They investigate the digital signatures of the “new civil rights movement”—the online activism, storytelling, and strategy-building that set the stage for #BlackLivesMatter—and recount the spread of racial justice hashtags after the killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and other high-profile incidents of killings by police. Finally, they consider hashtag created by allies, including #AllMenCan and #CrimingWhileWhite.

Download or read book Sanity Is Impossibility written by Santosh Jha and published by Santosh Jha. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a dangerous book. It may shatter you beyond redemption. It may make you forfeit, continuity of comfort with your own being and the world you live. But, the rewards are mesmerizing. It unravels mysteries you thought humanity could never. It’s about universal yet elusive actuality of Reality and Humanity. It is about you, you never knew. Dig in, brave it, for prosperous 2020; lifelong bliss. Annihilation of humanity is inevitable as stupidities-hypocrisies embedded in consciousness and perception of Reality make Sanity an Impossibility. Intelligence has ‘Seeds’ of its own extinction. 21st century wisdom bares the mechanism-process of compulsive insanity of humanity. This in turn lists out, how an individual can attain Personal Sanity in life-living, even amid madness of milieus. In the pathology lies the diagnosis of the methodology of cure; in the genetics of problem is embedded the genesis of solution. This is Rule of Causality. When you decipher the anatomy of human world insanity, prescription of individual sanity is charted out. This eBook logically deconstructs collective human hypocrisies and stupidities to objectively construct framework of lasting personal bliss. Humanity in general does not have the primary culpability of human world hypocrisies and stupidities, as insanity of humanity is coded in the way Reality unravels and expresses itself and the way the human consciousness is designed to perceive it. Still, the human culpability is colossal as despite this knowledge about Reality and Consciousness design being available since ages and now fully deciphered, humanity happily continues to repeat the same mistakes, refusing foolishly to learn from them. This too happens and shall keep happening till the inevitable extinction of humanity in foreseeable future as this too is very much the mechanism and process of Reality and its expression-perception in human world. All these are no more complicated and unknowable knowledge in 21st century. The knowledge about Reality and its unraveling by the innately restrictive human mind consciousness has been there since around 3000 years but now, modern science has perfectly deciphered it and explained it in reasonably understandable terms. The critical knowledge of Reality, Human Consciousness and Cognition, along with objective, measurable understanding of the Cosmic Rule of Causality in contemporary scientific wisdom definitively establishes that Sanity Is Impossibility in human world. This knowledge then in its holism reflects happily on the fact that the very understanding of the causalities of insanity of collective humanity reveals the elements that can and should install personal sanity, poise, order and wellness symmetry in an individual. The core purpose of this eBook is to deliberate in detail about why Sanity is a Possibility only at personal and individual level and any aware and sincere persona can attain it. Naturally, this eBook also categorically lists out the mechanism and process of how an individual can attain his or her personal sanity and system, fully understanding as why this can happen, even when the human world continues with its ever-evolving hypocrisies and stupidities, till annihilation of humanity happens. Welcome.

Download or read book Lying written by Sissela Bok and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2011-04-27 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is it ever all right to lie? A philosopher looks at lying and deception in public and private life—in government, medicine, law, academia, journalism, in the family and between friends. Lying is a penetrating and thoughtful examination of one of the most pervasive yet little discussed aspects of our public and private lives. Beginning with the moral questions raised about lying since antiquity, Sissela Bok takes up the justifications offered for all kinds of lies—white lies, lies to the sick and dying, lies of parents to children, lies to enemies, lies to protect clients and peers. The consequences of such lies are then explored through a number of concrete situations in which people are involved, either as liars or as the victims of a lie.
