Download or read book Global Shift written by Edmund J. Bourne and published by New Harbinger Publications. This book was released on 2009-01-02 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A remarkable change is taking place that will profoundly influence the way we see ourselves and our world. The dominant materialistic, separatist worldview-a perspective that leads individuals to value their own needs over the good of the whole-is giving way to a humanitarian-spiritual orientation. This shift will revolutionize both the way humanity interacts on a global scale and how we live on a day-to-day basis. Global Shift, co-published with the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS), explores the roots of such current planetary crises as climate change, diminishing resources, poverty, and disease, and explains how a new convergence of scientific research and spiritual insight is propelling us toward a more enlightened future. It also presents a call to actions we can implement now, such as voluntary simplicity, nonviolent communication, caring for our bodies, and inclusive global thinking, that can foster personal healing and bring our lives into alignment with the needs of the planet and a conscious universe.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book “First I give you what you want so that gradually you will want what I have really come to give you– Liberation itself!” The vast number of visitors from all over the world, from all walks of life and all faiths has been converging at Prasanthi Nilayam in a remote region of Southern India just to have a glimpse of a Holy man, Sri Sathya Sai Baba, the Avatar of the present Age. Royalty, Heads of State, Politicians, Industrialists, Judges, Priests, Doctors, Army Generals, Scientists, Actors, Cricketers, Teachers, Students, General Public - all congregate at this Abode of Supreme Peace. His Ashram resembles a mini United Nations of spiritual seekers, with groups of foreign devotees wearing different coloured scarves for country-wise identification. The book contains dramatic eye-witness accounts of extraordinary Sai phenomena and the wonders taking place in Sai Baba’s Ashram. Never before in the history of the world have there been so many indications of the descent of the Full Avatar in human form. The miracles of Krishna and Jesus must be taken on trust and faith; those of Sri Sathya Sai Baba you can see for yourself. The author describes the various ways how Sri Sathya Sai Baba is transforming humanity; discusses the factors on which his devotees base their belief in him; outlines his Mission and explains how he is achieving it. The danger from which Man has to be rescued has never been so great and the evil over the Earth never so pronounced as now. Sathya Sai Baba’s Mission starts with nothing less than the transformation of humanity; to reinstate the supremacy of the spirit over matter and offer liberation itself! Sathya Sai Baba is short in stature, has a huge halo of hair on his head, wears an orange robe, walks as though his feet are gliding on the floor, displays a majestic grace, works all day long but at the same time maintains an austere life style. He is a fountain of knowledge although he has never read any books; he speaks in the most profound way with remarkable clarity and spontaneity, as he has no need to think; he always gives discourses impromptu, as he has no need of any notes or preparation; he replies to searching questions by scientists, theologians and other intellectuals with a ready and spontaneous answer on any subject. This Avatar never engages in any spiritual practice: does no Japa, or reciting the holy name; no Dhyana, or meditating; and no Yoga, practising union with God. He knows no worship or prayer, for He is the Highest. He only teaches you to worship and pray. The Rishis and Saints of yore evolved through spiritual practice to high levels of consciousness and God realization to ascend heavenwards. The Avatar, by contrast, is already born fully divine and descends downwards. His humanitarian projects are unique like his Schools and Universities that provide free education; world-class Super-Specialty Hospitals in rural areas that provide free treatment to one and all; and massive water systems that provide drinking water to millions of people in drought-prone districts, all established in record time. Sathya Sai Baba’s Global Education Programme based on human values aims to bring about worldwide social transformation, reduce strife and turmoil, and unite mankind to live as one family in peace and harmony. The author describes the worldwide Sai Movement, with special reference to Latin America where the Sai Spirit has spread like wild fire, crossing the barriers of language, religion and culture.
Download or read book Radically Human written by Paul Daugherty and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2022-04-26 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology advances are making tech more . . . human. This changes everything you thought you knew about innovation and strategy. In their groundbreaking book, Human + Machine, Accenture technology leaders Paul R. Daugherty and H. James Wilson showed how leading organizations use the power of human-machine collaboration to transform their processes and their bottom lines. Now, as new AI powered technologies like the metaverse, natural language processing, and digital twins begin to rapidly impact both life and work, those companies and other pioneers across industries are tipping the balance even more strikingly toward the human side with technology-led strategy that is reshaping the very nature of innovation. In Radically Human, Daugherty and Wilson show this profound shift, fast-forwarded by the pandemic, toward more human—and more humane—technology. Artificial intelligence is becoming less artificial and more intelligent. Instead of data-hungry approaches to AI, innovators are pursuing data-efficient approaches that enable machines to learn as humans do. Instead of replacing workers with machines, they're unleashing human expertise to create human-centered AI. In place of lumbering legacy IT systems, they're building cloud-first IT architectures able to continuously adapt to a world of billions of connected devices. And they're pursuing strategies that will take their place alongside classic, winning business formulas like disruptive innovation. These against-the-grain approaches to the basic building blocks of business—Intelligence, Data, Expertise, Architecture, and Strategy (IDEAS)—are transforming competition. Industrial giants and startups alike are drawing on this radically human IDEAS framework to create new business models, optimize post-pandemic approaches to work and talent, rebuild trust with their stakeholders, and show the way toward a sustainable future. With compelling insights and fresh examples from a variety of industries, Radically Human will forever change the way you think about, practice, and win with innovation.

Download or read book Human Machine written by Paul R. Daugherty and published by Harvard Business Press. This book was released on 2018-03-20 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: AI is radically transforming business. Are you ready? Look around you. Artificial intelligence is no longer just a futuristic notion. It's here right now--in software that senses what we need, supply chains that "think" in real time, and robots that respond to changes in their environment. Twenty-first-century pioneer companies are already using AI to innovate and grow fast. The bottom line is this: Businesses that understand how to harness AI can surge ahead. Those that neglect it will fall behind. Which side are you on? In Human + Machine, Accenture leaders Paul R. Daugherty and H. James (Jim) Wilson show that the essence of the AI paradigm shift is the transformation of all business processes within an organization--whether related to breakthrough innovation, everyday customer service, or personal productivity habits. As humans and smart machines collaborate ever more closely, work processes become more fluid and adaptive, enabling companies to change them on the fly--or to completely reimagine them. AI is changing all the rules of how companies operate. Based on the authors' experience and research with 1,500 organizations, the book reveals how companies are using the new rules of AI to leap ahead on innovation and profitability, as well as what you can do to achieve similar results. It describes six entirely new types of hybrid human + machine roles that every company must develop, and it includes a "leader’s guide" with the five crucial principles required to become an AI-fueled business. Human + Machine provides the missing and much-needed management playbook for success in our new age of AI. BOOK PROCEEDS FOR THE AI GENERATION The authors' goal in publishing Human + Machine is to help executives, workers, students and others navigate the changes that AI is making to business and the economy. They believe AI will bring innovations that truly improve the way the world works and lives. However, AI will cause disruption, and many people will need education, training and support to prepare for the newly created jobs. To support this need, the authors are donating the royalties received from the sale of this book to fund education and retraining programs focused on developing fusion skills for the age of artificial intelligence.
Download or read book Humanity Over Comfort written by Sharone Brinkley-Parker and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2021-10-19 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increase your racial equity capacity for transformational change The years 2020 - 2021 will be remembered for COVID-19 and racial injustice. COVID illuminated long-standing structural inequities. Increased media focus on police brutality helped fuel a protest movement that underscored the urgency of the moment. In schools, non-profits, and various business sectors, conversations about race and institutional racism are becoming increasingly common. However, most of these conversations are performative and do little to disrupt the status quo. The authors of Humanity Over Comfort aim to move beyond the transactional response of using only conversations to respond to structural inequalities. Alternatively, the authors advance tools that promote transformational change that eliminates the access and opportunity gaps for Black and Brown individuals. Written to cultivate awareness that increases racial equity capacity, this book will help readers Understand historical context and the influence of racism in shaping reality Engage in reflections that connect learning to personal experience Understand the Conscious Anti-Racist Engendering Framework (CARE), which draws from adult learning theory to build community in organizations Leverage one’s span of control to implement practices that incrementally work to dismantle systems of oppressions Direct their increased capacity towards dismantling racially predictable policies and practices Transactional responses to racism perpetuate marginalizing narratives and outcomes and do little to support the humanity of a community, including White members. This book will guide readers towards transformational change to build a system that supports the restoration of our collective humanity.
Download or read book The Transformation of Humanity written by Cometan and published by Astral Publishing. This book was released on 2019-11-27 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Transformation of Humanity is the one-hundred and sixth instalment in the Little Blue Book Series and comprises both the third and fourth discourses of the Octadoxy, which is itself the eighth disquisition of the Omnidoxy, Astronism’s founding text. The Transformation of Humanity, followed by The Paucity of Cosmic Thinking discourse, both consists of a myriad of musings and teachings on the future of humanity, the need for humanity’s mentality regarding their place in The Cosmos to change, as well as emphasising the importance of the achievement of transcension. The Little Blue Book Series was created and first published by Cometan himself as a way to simplify and commercialise the immensity of the two million word length of the Omnidoxy into smaller, more bite-size publications. A successful series from its very first published entry, the Little Blue Book Series has gone on to become a symbol of Astronist commercial literature and a way for Cometan’s words to reach readers of all ages and abilities who remain daunted by the beauty and yet the sheer extensiveness of the Omnidoxy as the longest religious text in history.
Download or read book Progressive Creation and the Struggles of Humanity in the Bible written by Zoltan Dornyei and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why does the Christian walk often feel like an ongoing struggle and why does God’s creation include imperfection, let alone forces that are intent on thwarting God’s creative work? In seeking a response to these questions, this book argues that the biblical accounts describe creation in terms of a progressive transformation process whereby the initially incomplete created order will reach perfection only in the fulfillment of new creation. The following discussion then outlines a comprehensive framework for the biblical theology of humanity’s struggles, centered on three key themes: corporeal temptation, deficient social structures, and the much-debated notion of spiritual warfare. The book presents an overarching canonical narrative that threads together a series of diverse biblical topics, from Job's temptation to the Atonement. The final part surveys biblical teaching on how human conduct can be aligned with God’s creative purpose, and discusses three “assignments” from Jesus to believers: to celebrate the Eucharist, to pray the Lord’s Prayer, and to fulfill the Great Commission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For years, executive Martin Fiore has been advising leaders from a wide range of industries about technological trends that are reshaping the world of business, from artificial intelligence and the rise of autonomous systems to human/machine convergence. Now, in Humanity Reimagined, Fiore explores how these trends are disrupting industries, changing the world of work, transforming the economy, and creating both threats and opportunities for leaders at all levels, from entrepreneurs nurturing start-up businesses to C-suite leaders at the world's biggest corporations. Fiore's main focus is on what we can do to ensure that the forces of change now sweeping the planet will protect and enhance the most cherished qualities of human life rather than undermining them. He offers thoughtful recommendations for addressing many of the big issues that today's transformational technologies are raising, from the threats to privacy posed by misuse of big data to the infiltration of autonomous systems by racial and gender bias. Most important, Fiore provides advice on how to prepare for an unpredictable future that business leaders, policy makers, and individuals forging their careers will find both practical and inspiring.

Download or read book The Laws of Human Nature written by Robert Greene and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times-bestselling author of The 48 Laws of Power comes the definitive new book on decoding the behavior of the people around you Robert Greene is a master guide for millions of readers, distilling ancient wisdom and philosophy into essential texts for seekers of power, understanding and mastery. Now he turns to the most important subject of all - understanding people's drives and motivations, even when they are unconscious of them themselves. We are social animals. Our very lives depend on our relationships with people. Knowing why people do what they do is the most important tool we can possess, without which our other talents can only take us so far. Drawing from the ideas and examples of Pericles, Queen Elizabeth I, Martin Luther King Jr, and many others, Greene teaches us how to detach ourselves from our own emotions and master self-control, how to develop the empathy that leads to insight, how to look behind people's masks, and how to resist conformity to develop your singular sense of purpose. Whether at work, in relationships, or in shaping the world around you, The Laws of Human Nature offers brilliant tactics for success, self-improvement, and self-defense.
