Download or read book True Perception written by Chogyam Trungpa and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2008-11-11 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Genuine art has the power to awaken and liberate. The renowned meditation master and artist Chögyam Trungpa called this type of art "dharma art"—any creative work that springs from an awakened state of mind, characterized by directness, unselfconsciousness, and nonaggression. Dharma art provides a vehicle to appreciate the nature of things as they are and express it without any struggle or desire to achieve. A work of dharma art brings out the goodness and dignity of the situation it reflects—dignity that comes from the artist’s interest in the details of life and sense of appreciation for experience. Trungpa shows how the principles of dharma art extend to everyday life: any activity can provide an opportunity to relax and open our senses to the phenomenal world. An expanded edition of Trungpa's Dharma Art (1996), this book includes a new introduction and essay.

Download or read book True Perception of Chronic Diseases written by Rajan Dubey and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2016-04-08 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We belong to an era of non-communicable diseases, such as cancer, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, stroke, obesity, cardiovascular disorders, etc. About two decades ago, the advent of these so-called lifestyle disorders were seen only in a handful of population. But as time passes, we witness more and more people suffering from such problems. From a homoeopathic standpoint, we view this situation to be alarming. This is because all the above-mentioned diseases indicate a latent chronic process undergoing within the human body, which have a potential to undermine every possibility of an individual to lead a healthy life. The purpose of our book is to demonstrate the efficacy of homoeopathy, as probably, the only curative and scientific-healing science, which can free people from the crutches of chronic disease in a very simple and non-invasive manner. - AUDE SAPERE [DARE TO BE WISE]

Download or read book Following The Truth Perception v Critical Thinking written by Dr. Charles A. Rice, PhD and published by Dr. Charles A. Rice, Ph.D. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This tome surrounds the philosophies of Truth v. Perception, it considers the dichotomy of Truth v. the totality of Truth; and it's complicated in the thinking; the book focuses on critical thinking and problem solving skills; Rkelly merely represents the basis of scenarios; and with that, the philosophies are applied, related to a different way of consider things. The tome is formal in nature; meaning, being certified, unlegal, but very much logical; encompassing plausible scenarios of relief; maintaining that the totality of Truth, which can evolve to more truths, offers the better remedy. Wherefore; the premise of, ‘Perception v. Critical Thinking’, is its truth; Therefore; it will not matter what RKelly is not on trial for; but what is germane, is what RKelly is indicted for; and all else is inconsequential; it doesn't matter who knew RKelly; and it has nothing to do with the overaged women on LifeTime that were not underage; it has nothing to do with acquaintances or adversaries; moreover, having to do with the allegations brought forth in the indictment; and onwards, the merits on which the allegations are founded and being criminal in nature; Now comes; the things that are to be considered; Whereby, the use of logic and critical thinking will be applied. This tome will evaluate the most relevant and substantial of the allegations, and will do so in supplementary details; the tome does not substantiate guilt or innocence; withstanding judgment, and notwithstanding the unlegal opinion derived from it; Furthermore, this tome will not include insignificant individuals, not having a direct impact on the core substance, or, and, again, being inconsequential; overtly acknowledging all edicts to be alleged. We will explored the dimensions of our psyche related to truth; by reaching beyond the obvious, and by viewing things through the microscope exploring what might be possible, and impossible, and applying truth wherever possible, the depths of a multifaceted approach, regarding reason, thought, and truth, and how all of it might relate, and making use of the telescope to glance beyond the right now, and to consider where it is possible for the truth and reality to coexist in its totality, and not in-part; being detailed in our considerations and understanding; allowing the truth to evolve into more truths, and by grasping truths philosophies. If it’s true, and according to his supporters beliefs, It’s about RKelly’s catalog and its value; however, that premise fails in comparison to RKelly’s assertion that, ‘I’m fighting for my Life’, while others assert that things about RKelly being a pedophile; nevertheless, what comes first is the evaluation of the charges, because what is immediate are the charges he faces; while money may be a factor, on the surface, I can assess, that his money woes, begin long before these charges; but the accusation has swirled regarding underage activity, with a plethora of NDA’s; but could it be the result of being misunderstood, or perception.

Download or read book Phenomenology of Perception written by Maurice Merleau-Ponty and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-04-15 with total page 697 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1945, Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s monumental Phénoménologie de la perception signalled the arrival of a major new philosophical and intellectual voice in post-war Europe. Breaking with the prevailing picture of existentialism and phenomenology at the time, it has become one of the landmark works of twentieth-century thought. This new translation, the first for over fifty years, makes this classic work of philosophy available to a new generation of readers. Phenomenology of Perception stands in the great phenomenological tradition of Husserl, Heidegger, and Sartre. Yet Merleau-Ponty’s contribution is decisive, as he brings this tradition and other philosophical predecessors, particularly Descartes and Kant, to confront a neglected dimension of our experience: the lived body and the phenomenal world. Charting a bold course between the reductionism of science on the one hand and "intellectualism" on the other, Merleau-Ponty argues that we should regard the body not as a mere biological or physical unit, but as the body which structures one’s situation and experience within the world. Merleau-Ponty enriches his classic work with engaging studies of famous cases in the history of psychology and neurology as well as phenomena that continue to draw our attention, such as phantom limb syndrome, synaesthesia, and hallucination. This new translation includes many helpful features such as the reintroduction of Merleau-Ponty’s discursive Table of Contents as subtitles into the body of the text, a comprehensive Translator’s Introduction to its main themes, essential notes explaining key terms of translation, an extensive Index, and an important updating of Merleau-Ponty’s references to now available English translations. Also included is a new foreword by Taylor Carman and an introduction to Merleau-Ponty by Claude Lefort. Translated by Donald A. Landes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a major Contribution to the theory of perception, A.D.Smith presents a truly original defense of direct realism the view that in perception we are directly aware of things in a physical world. It offers two arguements against direct realism-one conceening illusion, and one concerning hallueination that upto now no theory of perception could adequately rebut.At the heart of Smiths theory is a new way of drawing the distinction between perception and sensation alone with an unusual treatment of the nature of object of halluecination .

Download or read book The Philosophy of Perception written by Lambert Wiesing and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lambert Wiesing's The Philosophy of Perception challenges current theories of perception. Instead of attempting to understand how a subject perceives the world, Wiesing starts by taking perception to be real. He then asks what this reality means for a subject. In his original approach, the question of how human perception is possible is displaced by questions about what perception obliges us to be and do. He argues that perception requires us to be embodied, to be visible, and to continually participate in the public and physical world we perceive. Only in looking at images, he proposes, can we achieve something like a break in participation, a temporary respite from this, one of perception's relentless demands. Wiesing's methods chart a markedly new path in contemporary perception theory. In addition to identifying common ground among diverse philosophical positions, he identifies how his own, phenomenological approach differs from those of many other philosophers, past and present. As part of the argument, he provides a succinct but comprehensive survey of the philosophy of images His original critical exposition presents scholars of phenomenology, perception and aesthetics with a new, important understanding of the old phenomenon, the human being in the world.

Download or read book A Push in Perception written by Abhijit Naskar and published by Vicdansaadet Publishing. This book was released on with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Truth is not a destination - it is not a point in the future which you reach through discipline and efforts. Truth is the path itself you walk on everyday, driven by unbiased, naive curiosity for knowing - not believing, but knowing." Abhijit Naskar is the idea of one humanity that has become a mirror for all humans to see themselves without prejudices, without biases, without the conformities of the society. Over and over again, Naskar has stated that liberty is his religion, and the humans are his god. In this book, he takes us on the journey of understanding this liberty with a naive eye. He profoundly proclaims that this ultimate liberty is not attained through a certain ideology or a label of intellectualism - in fact, it is not something to be attained at all, rather it is manifested within ourselves. Naskar reminds us, that this liberty is the gateway to a truly harmonious and peaceful world where there can be no war or any conflict whatsoever, either internal or external. In this liberty humanity discovers the truth that it so obsessively seeks in various ideologies. The book takes a deep dive into the ocean of liberty and enables us to investigate the fundamental question of human existence - what is truth?

Download or read book Peirce on Perception and Reasoning written by Kathleen A. Hull and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, scholars examine the nature and significance of Peirce’s work on perception, iconicity, and diagrammatic thinking. Abjuring any strict dichotomy between presentational and representational mental activity, Peirce’s theories transform the Aristotelian, Humean, and Kantian paradigms that continue to hold sway today and forge a new path for understanding the centrality of visual thinking in science, education, art, and communication. This book is a key resource for scholars interested in Perice’s philosophy and its relation to contemporary issues in mathematics, philosophy of mind, philosophy of perception, semiotics, logic, visual thinking, and cognitive science.

Download or read book Aquinas s Theory of Perception written by Anthony J. Lisska and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-06-09 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Anthony J. Lisska presents a new analysis of Thomas Aquinas's theory of perception. While much work has been undertaken on Aquinas's texts, little has been devoted principally to his theory of perception and less still on a discussion of inner sense. The thesis of intentionality serves as the philosophical backdrop of this analysis while incorporating insights from Brentano and from recent scholarship. The principal thrust is on the importance of inner sense, a much-overlooked area of Aquinas's philosophy of mind, with special reference to the vis cogitativa. Approaching the texts of Aquinas from contemporary analytic philosophy, Lisska suggests a modest 'innate' or 'structured' interpretation for the role of this inner sense faculty. Dorothea Frede suggests that this faculty is an 'embarrassment' for Aquinas; to the contrary, the analysis offered in this book argues that were it not for the vis cogitativa, Aquinas's philosophy of mind would be an embarrassment. By means of this faculty of inner sense, Aquinas offers an account of a direct awareness of individuals of natural kinds--referred to by Aquinas as incidental objects of sense--which comprise the principal ontological categories in Aquinas's metaphysics. By using this awareness of individuals of a natural kind, Aquinas can make better sense out of the process of abstraction using the active intellect (intellectus agens). Were it not for the vis cogitativa, Aquinas would be unable to account for an awareness of the principal ontological category in his metaphysics.

Download or read book Arts of Perception written by Jeremy Robbins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-05-13 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arts of Perception offers a new account of a key period in Spanish history and culture and a fundamental reassessment of its major writers and intellectuals, including Gracián, Quevedo, Calderón, Saavedra Fajardo, López de Vega, and Sor Juana. Reading these figures in the context of European thought and the new science, and philosophy, the study considers how they developed various ‘arts of perception’ - complex perceptual strategies designed to overcome and exploit epistemic problems to enable an individual to act effectively in the moral, political, social or religious sphere. The study takes as its subject the distinctive epistemological mentality behind such ‘arts of perception’. This mentality was fostered by the creative interaction of scepticism and Stoicism, and found expression in the key concepts ser/parecer and engaño/desengaño. The work traces the emergence, development, and impact of these concepts on Spanish thought and culture. As well as offering new interpretations of specific major figures, Arts of Perception offers an interpretation of the mentality of an entire culture as it made the fraught transition to intellectual modernity. As such it ranges over numerous discourses and formative contexts and provides a wealth of new material which will be of use to all those seeking to understand and interpret the literature, culture and thought of Golden Age Spain. This book was previously published as a special issue of The Bulletin of Spanish Studies.

Download or read book Sensation and Perception written by D. W. Hamlyn and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1961, Sensation and Perception aims to cast light upon the nature of perception itself. This, the author believes, can be achieved only through an understanding of the concepts of sensation and perception. A survey of the principal attempts to arrive at such an understanding brings out the fact that perception has most often been assimilated to sensation or judgment. The author believes that both of these views are wrong but that an attention to the history of thought can provide an explanation of the temptation to accept them. A final chapter gives the author’s own views on the nature of sensation and perception. As such it would be of interest both to philosophers and to those psychologists who are concerned with the nature of perception.
