Download or read book Arise from Darkness written by Benedict C.F.R. Groeschel and published by Ignatius Press. This book was released on 2009-09-03 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Well-known author, psychologist ; and priest Fr. Benedict ; Groeschel draws on his own years of personal experiences in ; dealing with people's problems, tragedies and "darkness" as ; he offers help and guidance for any Christian troubled or ; burdened by life. If you are struggling with fear, anxiety, ; grief, loss of loved ones, hurt, anger or anything that ; makes life difficult or the road through it dark, then this ; book was written for you. Fr. Benedict offers practical ; suggestions on how to keep going and even grow with the ; help of God's grace, even when this help seems remote. ; The Christian response to the problem of evil and ; suffering began with the cross of Christ. Our answer is ; inseparable from the cross-from Jesus' own encounter with ; evil and his triumph over it. In this light, Fr. Benedict ; recalls some of our most frequently encountered sorrows and ; griefs: the failure of friends, financial and personal ; insecurity, the failure of some in the Church, our own ; inconsistent behaviors and weaknesses, and the death of ; loved ones. As we examine these painful experiences, he ; shows that we can find solutions in the Gospel and in the ; lives of saints, heroes, and very brave ordinary people. ; "Many guides have been written for people struggling with ; the mystery of evil. But each generation, each age has its ; own dark background in front of which the struggle to keep ; going must be worked out. In every age, men ask 'how am I ; going to go on to arise from darkness?' It is that which my ; book will address." Fr. Benedict Groeschel, ; CFR
Download or read book The living Jiva Realize your Divinity EPUB written by Cem Ilyas Eker and published by The living Jiva©. This book was released on 2024-02-25 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a systematic guide of fundamental concepts that, through the author's efforts, serve the primary purpose of recontextualizing the basic assumptions and definitions of logic to promote a deeper understanding of identity, cognitive sovereignty, self-efficacy, awareness, competence, purpose of existence, potential, flexibility of mind, subjective and objective perception, collective integrity, et cetera. The secondary purpose is for the reader to have the opportunity to benefit from the author's knowledge of his experiences with his enlightened master during his stay in a monastic complex in India and from his experiences after that time, to gain insight into the values, principles, and science of the Veda-agamic way of life based purely on the theme of enlightenment (nowadays simplified as Hinduism) as well as purely from the cognitive substance of its ancient scriptures. The author has endeavored to simplify the complexity of the above-mentioned issues as far as possible in order to ensure comprehensibility and effective use. Furthermore, the tertiary purpose of the content of this book is to demystify the author's so-called supernatural actual experiences, which are categorized as spiritual or purely subjective by the wider society, with pure rationality, to transcend cultural and religious disagreements and differences to grasp the core of the human collective as meaningfully as possible, and to shed a brighter light on authenticity. In this book, the pivotal point of the information to be presented is how much positive change the conscious determination of one's identity can bring about, how it is causally constructed, how this approach sets new standards and possibilities for an individual, and how it can evolve in a stable and healthy, as well as accelerated, multidimensional way. The author begins in the first chapters by introducing a "divine identity", which in this example comes from the Veda- agamic period. The author is aware that "divine identities" can be wrongly categorized as controversial ideals and psychosocial illnesses in today's world. In this regard, it is pointed out that the designation of this identity can be freely chosen and renamed or exchanged by the readers of this work. For the sake of simplicity, this identity is referred to as "the identity of the oneness" and is the actual basis on which the following concepts are built. In the following example, an entity called "Paramashiva" is included, which is synonymous with the term "identity of oneness", embodies it and helps the reader to better understand consciousness in order to manifest more consciousness. The pursuit of the cause of all causes is already the seed of super-consciousness and genius in us humans, which is in itself an independent intelligence that can be helped to blossom as long as the basic assumptions and the basic understanding of this seed are in accordance with the mode of existence of this intelligence. There is a real relationship to this intelligence, which can be consciously awakened and manifests through us individuals, insofar as we understand the trigger for the parallel universe synergy.
Download or read book H sker D written by Andrew Earles and published by Quarto Publishing Group USA. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bob Mould, Grant Hart, and Greg Norton formed Hüsker Dü in 1979 as a wildly cathartic outfit fueled by a cocktail of anger, volume, and velocity. Here's the first book to dissect the trio that countless critics and musicians have cited as one of the most influential bands of the 1980s. Author Andrew Earles examines how Hüsker Dü became the first hardcore band to marry pop melodies with psychedelic influences and ear-shattering volume. Readers witness the band create the untouchable noise-pop of LPs like New Day Rising, Flip Your Wig, and Candy Apple Grey, not to mention the sprawling double-length Zen Arcade. Few bands from the original American indie movement did more to inform the alternative rock styles that breached the mainstream in the 1990s. Hüsker Dü truly were visionaries.

Download or read book Our Band Could Be Your Life written by Michael Azerrad and published by Little, Brown. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The definitive chronicle of underground music in the 1980s tells the stories of Black Flag, Sonic Youth, The Replacements, and other seminal bands whose DIY revolution changed American music forever. Our Band Could Be Your Life is the never-before-told story of the musical revolution that happened right under the nose of the Reagan Eighties -- when a small but sprawling network of bands, labels, fanzines, radio stations, and other subversives re-energized American rock with punk's do-it-yourself credo and created music that was deeply personal, often brilliant, always challenging, and immensely influential. This sweeping chronicle of music, politics, drugs, fear, loathing, and faith is an indie rock classic in its own right. The bands profiled include: Sonic Youth Black Flag The Replacements Minutemen Husker Du Minor Threat Mission of Burma Butthole Surfers Big Black Fugazi Mudhoney Beat Happening Dinosaur Jr.
