Download or read book Afterlife written by Gary A. Stilwell and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2005 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Afterlife argues that proper conduct was believed essential for determining one's post-mortem judgment from the earliest periods in ancient Egypt and Greece. Part one examines Plato's eschatological myths regarding conduct as it affects one's afterlife fate. Part two traces the evolution of afterlife beliefs from Homer to the Dramatists and demonstrates that post-mortem reward and retribution, based on one's conduct, is already found in Homer. Pythagoreanism and Orphism further develop the afterlife beliefs that will have such enormous impact on Plato and later Christianity. The third part examines Egyptian religious texts of the 5th to 18th Dynasties for their understanding of virtues and vices that have afterlife consequences. In part four, the relationship between behavior and the afterlife beliefs of both societies are compared. In the earliest periods, the afterlife texts appear to be concerned only with the elite: the king in Egypt's Pyramid Texts and the heroes in Homeric Greece. Nevertheless, we show that, from the earliest times, both societies believed that the gods, primarily Maat in Egypt and Dike in Greece, were responsible for the proper ordering of the cosmos and anyone's violations of that order would reap the direst consequence--the loss of a beneficent afterlife.
Download or read book The Collarbound written by Rebecca Zahabi and published by Gollancz. This book was released on 2022-05-12 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE INSTANT SUNDAY TIMES TOP TEN BESTSELLER 'A fast-paced, riveting read, with writing that leaps off the page and one of the most compelling magic systems I've encountered in years, this is a must for fantasy fans!' Natasha Ngan, Girls of Paper and Fire A MAN MARKED BY MAGIC. A WOMAN MARKED BY HER PAST. On the other side of the Shadowpass, rebellion is brewing and refugees have begun to trickle into the city at the edge of the world. Looming high on the cliff is The Nest, a fortress full of mages who offer protection, but also embody everything the rebellion is fighting against: a strict hierarchy based on magic abilities. When Isha arrives as a refugee, she attempts to fit in amongst the other mages, but her Kher tattoo brands her as an outcast. She can't remember her past or why she has the tattoo. All she knows is that she survived. She doesn't intend to give up now. Tatters, who wears the golden collar of a slave, knows that this rebellion is different from past skirmishes. He was once one of the rebels, and technically, they still own him. He plans to stay in the shadows, until Isha appears in his tavern. He's never seen a human with a tattoo, and the markings look eerily familiar . . . As the rebellion carves a path of destruction towards the city, an unlikely friendship forms between a man trying to escape his past and a woman trying to uncover hers, until their secrets threaten to tear them apart. The Collarbound hooks from the opening page and will appeal to fans of magical, brink-of-war settings, like that of The Poppy War and The City of Brass. 'Zahabi deftly creates a fully-realized and richly described world, providing a quiet yet striking exploration of the way inequality and injustice often serve as the bedrock of systems of power' M. J. Kuhn, author of Among Thieves 'Oh, my heart! What an imaginative plot! What fantastic writing! What awesome characters! And what an incredible world!'

Download or read book An Ordinary Life written by Andrew Michael Doig and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Andrew’s journey began with spiritual healing, and led into visiting spiritualist centres in England, Wales, Scotland and Sweden. His experiences sparked a desire to join various circles and experience literally hundreds of séances and hearing those addressed by those in spirit. Since his first tentative steps into the world of spiritualism, he has witnessed transfiguration, physical mediumship, and was involved in ‘rescue work’. He has seen many mediums giving fine examples of mental mediumship, and gained awareness of clairvoyance and clairsentience for himself. Andrew has also had the wonderful adventure of having spirits use him for psychic art. Equipped with his new knowledge, Andrew now realises that events in his life have been symbolic and a sign that his spirit guide has been with him throughout his life. He now wishes to share the same message of positivity and hope with others. An Ordinary Life...? is an excellent introduction to spiritualism from a personal viewpoint, and will provide encouragement for those who have been seeking deeper meaning in their own lives.
Download or read book Willing Slaves Of Capital written by Frederic Lordon and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2014-07-22 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do people work for other people? This seemingly naïve question is at the heart of Lordon's argument. To complement Marx's partial answers, especially in the face of the disconcerting spectacle of the engaged, enthusiastic employee, Lordon brings to bear a "Spinozist anthropology" that reveals the fundamental role of affects and passions in the employment relationship, reconceptualizing capitalist exploitation as the capture and remolding of desire. A thoroughly materialist reading of Spinoza's Ethics allows Lordon to debunk all notions of individual autonomy and self-determination while simultaneously saving the ideas of political freedom and liberation from capitalist exploitation. Willing Slaves of Capital is a bold proposal to rethink capitalism and its transcendence on the basis of the contemporary experience of work.

Download or read book The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic written by Eliphas Lévi and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Filling a huge gap in our spiritual culture, here--at last--is a comprehensive and elegant translation of the 1854 French masterwork of occult philosophy. The Doctrine and Ritual of High Magic reignited the esoteric spiritual search in the West and led to the emergence of Madame Blavatsky, Manly P. Hall, and the New Age revolution. Lévi's study of magic is an absolute must for every seeker in occult, esoteric, and druidic realms; but this need has been frustrated by dated and inaccurate translations--until now. Greer, a respected occult scholar, and Mikituk, a masterful translator, collaborate to restore this landmark work--complete with its original illustrations and symbols--to the center of the alternative spiritual canon.
