Download or read book A Cultural History of the Soul written by Kocku von Stuckrad and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The soul, which dominated many intellectual debates at the beginning of the twentieth century, has virtually disappeared from the sciences and the humanities. Yet it is everywhere in popular culture—from holistic therapies and new spiritual practices to literature and film to ecological and political ideologies. Ignored by scholars, it is hiding in plain sight in a plethora of religious, psychological, environmental, and scientific movements. This book uncovers the history of the concept of the soul in twentieth-century Europe and North America. Beginning in fin de siècle Germany, Kocku von Stuckrad examines a fascination spanning philosophy, the sciences, the arts, and the study of religion, as well as occultism and spiritualism, against the backdrop of the emergence of experimental psychology. He then explores how and why the United States witnessed a flowering of ideas about the soul in popular culture and spirituality in the latter half of the century. Von Stuckrad examines an astonishingly wide range of figures and movements—ranging from Ernest Renan, Martin Buber, and Carl Gustav Jung to the Esalen Institute, deep ecology, and revivals of shamanism, animism, and paganism to Rachel Carson, Ursula K. Le Guin, and the Harry Potter franchise. Revealing how the soul remains central to a culture that is only seemingly secular, this book casts new light on the place of spirituality, religion, and metaphysics in Europe and North America today.
Download or read book Opening Heaven s Door written by Patricia Pearson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nearing Death Awareness is a phenomenon rarely discussed by those who have experienced it and often dismissed by our culture because it defies science or logic. Yet roughly half of bereaved people, as well as nurses and others who constantly observe the dying, have stories of coincidental visions at the exact moment of a loved one's death, comforting visits from a departed friend in an hour of need, and observations of the uncanny precision with which the dying predict their own deaths, even when they appear to the trained eye to be on the brink of recovery. These surprisingly common occurrences point toward a larger spiritual reality, and the reality of life (or something else) after death. They also have the power to console and comfort us and to transform our understanding of mortality. Prompted by her own family's experiences surrounding the deaths of her father and sister, journalist Patricia Pearson examines the scientific and anecdotal evidence to challenge current assumptions regarding what we know and what we are still unable to explain about what happens to us at the threshold of death.--Adapted from publisher description.
Download or read book Improvisation Creativity and Consciousness written by Edward W. Sarath and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2013-04-02 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jazz, America's original art form, can be a catalyst for creative and spiritual development. With its unique emphasis on improvisation, jazz offers new paradigms for educational and societal change. In this provocative book, musician and educator Edward W. Sarath illuminates how jazz offers a continuum for transformation. Inspired by the long legacy of jazz innovators who have used meditation and related practices to bring the transcendent into their lives and work, Sarath sees a coming shift in consciousness, one essential to positive change. Both theoretical and practical, the book uses the emergent worldview known as Integral Theory to discuss the consciousness at the heart of jazz and the new models and perspectives it offers. On a more personal level, the author provides examples of his own involvement in educational reform. His design of the first curriculum at a mainstream educational institution to incorporate a significant meditation and consciousness studies component grounds a radical new vision.
Download or read book Science Whispering Spirit written by Gary G. Preuss, PhD and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2015-10-08 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something extraordinary is going on. Science is finding that much of the paranormal is really normal. But even though research is uncovering the truth of psychic phenomena, psychics rarely win lottery jackpots. Why is that? Evidence increasingly indicates that our consciousness survives physical death, but few people converse with loved ones who have passed away. Why is that? The statistical probability that our universe exists at all is remote, yet the scientific paradigm is reluctant to allow that it might be designed. Why is that? And repeatedly, fewer people are involved in cataclysmic tragedies than the odds would expect for the time and location. Yet most of us do not recognize intuitive hints to avoid serious misfortune. Why is that? For centuries, science dismissed much paranormal weirdness as coincidence without seriously looking at it. It is now discovering that we are experiencing more than coincidence. But much remains hidden, intuition is rarely obvious, and psychic errors abound. Why? Why indeed? Hop aboard to explore some answers.
