Download or read book The End of The Search written by Marchette Chute and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With elegant simple language, Ms. Chute sets the tone for the entire book with her interpretation of the Act of the Apostles in everyday terms. She describes “the rest of the Letters” and their authors, showing how of the move from the shadow of truth into the light of full understanding...led by their desire in search of an encounter with the Divine. Chute unlock the mystery of the Book of Revelation by giving the reader a sense of John’s view of God and His relationship to man. John’s summation of the Book of Revelation can be said in nine words: God is Light. God is Love. Rather like a mathematician with a single idea, John’s writings are about the destruction of the darkness by the light. The Book of Revelation is a record of the destruction of darkness—now the search is ended and we may encounter the Divine. In plain language, John writes a story of mental warfare—light, which is full knowledge of God; and darkness, which is the ignorance of God. When the mental warfare is ended, we have peace. We abandon human endeavor and now know: The Kingdom of God is With You. A real and uplifting interpretation of the Book of Revelation.

Trespicio effortlessly guides you through her method of unhooking yourself from other people’s agendas, boning up on the skills to move you forward, and exploring your own creativity, memory, and intuition to unlock your unique path to meaning—while also confronting the challenges that stop you in your tracks, like boredom, loss, and fear. Unfollow Your Passion is a fresh and fearless “must-read for anyone looking for a more meaningful life” (Mel Robbins, author of The 5 Second Rule).

Download or read book In Search of Sir Thomas Browne The Life and Afterlife of the Seventeenth Century s Most Inquiring Mind written by Hugh Aldersey-Williams and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The extraordinary life and ideas of one of the greatest—and most neglected—minds in history. Sir Thomas Browne (1605–1682) was an English writer, physician, and philosopher whose work has inspired everyone from Ralph Waldo Emerson to Jorge Luis Borges, Virginia Woolf to Stephen Jay Gould. In an intellectual adventure like Sarah Bakewell's book about Montaigne, How to Live, Hugh Aldersey-Williams sets off not just to tell the story of Browne's life but to champion his skeptical nature and inquiring mind. Mixing botany, etymology, medicine, and literary history, Aldersey-Williams journeys in his hero's footsteps to introduce us to witches, zealots, natural wonders, and fabulous creatures of Browne's time and ours. We meet Browne the master prose stylist, responsible for introducing hundreds of words into English, including electricity, hallucination, and suicide. Aldersey-Williams reveals how Browne’s preoccupations—how to disabuse the credulous of their foolish beliefs, what to make of order in nature, how to unite science and religion—are relevant today. In Search of Sir Thomas Browne is more than just a biography—it is a cabinet of wonders and an argument that Browne, standing at the very gates of modern science, remains an inquiring mind for our own time. As Stephen Greenblatt has written, Browne is "unnervingly one of our most adventurous contemporaries."

Download or read book The Power of Acceptance written by Annemarie Postma and published by Watkins Publishing. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if, starting today, we stop thinking in terms of lack and imperfection? What if we stop trying to change reality with the power of our thoughts and intentions? What if we no longer think everything needs to be 'fixed', 'healed' or 'improved'? Many people are unhappy with their lives and circumstances. The source of their unhappiness can lie with their relationship, job, family, or with their own well-being. They wait and hope that their lives will become pleasant, but in reality the changes they can make are within their reach. If we suffer it is because we are trying to change life as it is into life as we want it. The great Dutch sinologist and Taoist Kristofer Schipper once said: 'The fight against the natural course of things is perhaps the greatest evil of our time.' What is good for you is usually whatever is happening right now. To surrender to this reality is not 'giving up' - to surrender is a celebration of real freedom. Acceptance can bring us feelings of liberation, strength and healing. This is really a book for everyone - everyone who is curious and eager to learn, everyone who is interested in real personal growth. With her elegant and intelligent writing - with fascinating contributions from world-renowned spiritual writers such as William Tiller and Lynne McTaggart - Annemarie shows us how acceptance is the path to enlightenment.

Download or read book Searching for Authenticity written by S. Gayle Baugh and published by IAP. This book was released on 2015-05-01 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Volume 2 of the Research in Careers series focuses on the search for authenticity in one’s career. Although there has been growing interest in the topic within the popular press, relatively little academic research has been completed on authenticity and careers. Researchers are still refining the concept of authenticity and are just beginning to investigate how it influences the enactment of careers in today’s turbulent career landscape. This volume offers the first organized effort on the topic. This volume contains seven chapters which examine the search for authenticity derived from the Kaleidoscope Career Model (Mainiero & Sullivan, 2006). Chapters 1 and 2 present a review of the literature and an in-depth analysis of the construct of authenticity. Chapter 1 offers a new lens to view career authenticity based on two dimensions of self-awareness and adaptability. Chapter 2 uses two case studies to define how individuals are authentic in their career. Chapters 3 and 4 examine the authenticity of individuals in different career stages, with Chapter 3 examining recent college graduates and Chapter 4 examining mid to late stage careerists. Chapters 5, 6 and 7 focus on the interplay between social interactions and career authenticity. Chapter 5 offers a process model that traces how, through negotiation, a person’s identities shape and are shaped by relationships with others, leading to the enactment of an authentic career. Chapter 6 explores how individuals remain authentic in their career while negotiating the conflicting expectations of multiple interest groups. Chapter 7 examines the complex relationships among career authenticity, political behaviors, and strain.
