Download or read book Picturing Hegel written by Julie E. Maybee and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2009-08-16 with total page 667 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In her innovative take on G.W. F. Hegel's The Encyclopaedia Logic, Julie E. Maybee uses pictures and diagrams to cut through the philosopher's dense, difficult writing. Picturing Hegel: An Illustrated Guide to Hegel's Encyclopaedia Logic utilizes diagrams in order to rehabilitate Hegel's logic for serious consideration by showing how each stage develops step-by-step from earlier stages according to definite, logical patterns. This interpretation makes Hegel's work accessible and understandable for new and experienced readers alike. Because Hegel uses the same logic in all of his works, Maybee's analysis and defense of the logic will capture the attention of those readers interested in Hegel's ethics, politics, history, philosophy of religion, and phenomenology. Through the included diagrams, Maybee is able to define central Hegelian concepts such as 'being-in-itself,' and 'being-in-and-for-itself' with a new level of precision. Maybee argues that Hegel's logic does not include the one logistical pattern most often attributed to him; namely, the pattern 'thesis-antithesis-synthesis.' Rather, Hegel's model of logic was more scientific than formalistic in nature, as the philosopher himself pointed out. Hegel considered himself an encyclopedic culmination of Western philosophy in some ways, and indeed his work summarizes many of the presuppositions of Western philosophy. By picturing Hegel's logic, we can gain a greater understanding of ourselves.

Download or read book The Breaking of the Outer Man and the Release of the Spirit written by Watchman Nee and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 1997-06 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Every Christian who has believed into Christ and received Him has a desire to grow in Him. The greatest hindrances to the experience of the growth in life are not outward circumstances and environmental hardships; rather, they are a mind in need of renewing, a will in need of submission to God, and an emotion in need of stability. In the Breaking of the Outer Man and the Release of the Spirit Watchman Nee provides a clear picture of the need for the breaking of the outer man so that the life of Christ in our spirit can flow out as rivers of living water to refresh and build up the people of God. In a new and revised translation of this spiritual classic, Watchman Nee provides crucial insight into the Biblical revelation of the necessity of the dividing of our soul from our spirit"--Back cover

Download or read book Executive Presence written by Sylvia Ann Hewlett and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2014-06-03 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you “leadership material?” More importantly, do others perceive you to be? Sylvia Ann Hewlett, a noted expert on workplace power and influence, shows you how to identify and embody the Executive Presence (EP) that you need to succeed. You can have the experience and qualifications of a leader, but without executive presence, you won't advance. EP is an amalgam of qualities that true leaders exude, a presence that telegraphs you're in charge or deserve to be. Articulating those qualities isn't easy, however. Based on a nationwide survey of college graduates working across a range of sectors and occupations, Sylvia Hewlett and the Center for Talent Innovation discovered that EP is a dynamic, cohesive mix of appearance, communication, and gravitas. While these elements are not equal, to have true EP, you must know how to use all of them to your advantage. Filled with eye-opening insights, analysis, and practical advice for both men and women, mixed with illustrative examples from executives learning to use the EP, Executive Presence will help you make the leap from working like an executive to feeling like an executive.

Download or read book The I AM Discourses written by Godfre Ray King and published by Clearfield Group. This book was released on 1935 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Awaken to the fact that your thought and feeling in the past have built—created—the inharmony of your world today. Arise! I say, Arise! and walk with the Father—the “I AM”—that you may be free from these limitations. Life, in all Its Activities everywhere manifest, is God in Action; and it is only through lack of the understanding of applied thought and feeling that mankind is constantly interrupting the pure flow of that Perfect Essence of Life which would, without interference, naturally express Its Perfection everywhere."

Download or read book THE CHRIST LIFE written by Geoffrey Hodson and published by Sea of Theosophy. This book was released on with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Every time that you find in our books a tale the reality of which seems impossible, a story which is repugnant to both reason and common sense, then be sure that the tale contains a profound allegory veiling a deeply mysterious truth; and the greater the absurdity of the letter, the deeper the wisdom of the spirit.” — Moses Maimonides, Jewish theologian, historian, Talmudist (1135-1205 A.D.) Countless people have been provided with new insights into the Christian religion through the in-depth Biblical interpretations of Geoffrey Hodson. In his Hidden Wisdom in the Holy Bible, Volumes I, II and III, he extensively analyzed Old Testament stories, suggesting that many of them are in actuality more meaningful than is commonly supposed; that many of these stories are indeed allegorical, and that, understood from a more universal and less literal point of view, they contain much additional useful knowledge. He believes this is also true of The Christ Life from Nativity to Ascension. In this book, Hodson moves from a consideration of the Old Testament of the Holy Bible to the New Testament, interpreting the four accounts, or Gospels of the life of Christ, as put down in the King James version of the Bible. The author believes that the Bible should be considered in both its historical and its allegorical significance. He writes: “Ever must it be remembered that the wondrous story (of Jesus the Christ) was never intended to be read as a record of external events alone, but rather as a revelation of the divine within man.” As a priest in the Liberal Catholic Church, Hodson has naturally maintained an intensive interest in the Holy Bible. He is recognized throughout the world for his exceptional clairvoyant abilities, and has also carried out occult research in collaboration with physicians, physicists, anthropologists and archaeologist. He is the author of some 40 books dealing with such topics as meditation, Theosophy, the spiritual life, health and disease and, of course, Bible symbolism and interpretation.

Download or read book The Rising Importance of Thomas Merton s Spiritual Legacy written by Kenneth Bragan and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2016-07-12 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current renewed interest in mystical experience, which stems in part from the neuroscience claim that there is a spiritual doorway in the brain, provides the grounds for placing the spiritual legacy of Thomas Merton in the context of natural spirituality, where it fits comfortably. His journals demonstrate clearly the important part that mystical experience (what he called God-experience) played in the amazing spiritual growth and personal transformation he underwent during his time as a Trappist monk. It is suggested here that as the door to the supernatural world closes, the door to natural spirituality is opening, and Thomas Merton’s legacy could provide great support for such change. If so, his importance as a mystic, teacher, and prophet could go on rising.

Book excerpt: The beautiful Princess Tanafriti, beloved daughter of Pharaoh Merenptah of Egypt, awakens one blissful morning to find that her life of privilege does not come without a price. The burden of a title means she is to be made a bride to a former enemy in order to keep a peaceful alliance between her father's empire and King Solomon's growing kingdom. Understanding the depth of her duty, Tanafriti journeys to Jerusalem with personal maids and guardsmen in tow, including her true love, Kam. The transition is not an easy one, as there are several Israelites who believe bringing a gentile into the sacred land of David the Great is blasphemous to God.The future of the kingdom now rests in King Solomon's hands, offering stresses of its own despite his divine wisdom as he waits in anguish for his bride. 'She of the Beautiful Land' is to be with him soon, and he longs for his wife. When the betrothed meet, the prior struggles are minimized by yet more religious opposition, but genuine love prevails. Solomon's desire for Tanafriti inspires the royal palacea "the only one built for any of his thousand wives. When their marriage fails to produce a male heir, Solomon leaves Tanafriti in distress and Kam to decipher his newfound role in Solomon's guard. New Hebrew and Danite friends and a miracle in the new temple prompt the princess to resign pagan rituals and follow the living God. Her faith brings wisdom, just like her husband's, and motivates her to encourage the Queen of Sheba with insight into the king, as well as offer guidance to Solomon. Through it all, a remarkable journey awaits the lives of all as an ultimate plan from a higher power strategically makes way into two kingdoms and two hearts vying for power and romance."

Book excerpt: Abhandlung zur digitalen Architektur Hovestadts Traktat folgt strikt den Linien der bekannten Abhandlungen von Vitruv und Alberti, in der Annahme, dass wir uns heute wieder in einer ähnlichen Konstellation befinden. Vitruv und Alberti brachten zum Ausdruck, was Architektur in ihrer Epoche bedeutete: die römische Antike und die Renaissance. Hovestadt formuliert sie nun in den heutigen Begriffen der Physik, Mathematik, Technologie, Literatur und Philosophie neu. Die Bücher I bis III befassen sich mit der Rolle des Architekten und der Objektivität der Architektur. Die Bücher IV bis VI thematisieren die Modalitäten des Sprechens und der Kodierung von Architektur: das Geheime, das Öffentliche und das Private. Die Bücher VII bis X widmen sich den eigentlichen digitalen Mechanismen: künstlicher Intelligenz, natürlicher Kommunikation, Gnomonik und kulturellem Erbe. Ein Architekturtraktat unserer Zeit in 10 Büchern Nach dem Vorbild von Vitruv und Alberti Erscheint in drei Bänden der Reihe Applied Virtuality Book Series, Bd. 19, 20 und 21
