Download or read book Hyman written by Lawrence Bush and published by Ben Yehuda Press. This book was released on 2023-05-27 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rabbi Hyman Babushkin has headed and cultivated a progressive religious movement, Encounter Judaism, for half a century — but as he turns 83, he has lost his wife, his prostate, and, perhaps, his faith. The loyalty of some of the key women among his cohort is wavering, his leadership is being challenged, and he is beset by fantasies of fleeing back to the ultra-Orthodox world from which he was excommunicated during the heady 1960s. What’s a guru to do? HYMAN is a novel rich in humor, Jewish thought, and provocative questions about power and sexuality as it vaults back and forth through fifty years of American culture.

Download or read book Hallucinogens written by Charles S. Grob and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2002-07-08 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's been forty years since Timothy Leary sat beside a swimming pool in Cuernavaca, Mexico, ingested several grams of the genus Stropharia cubensis, and experienced a dazzling display of visions that led him to herald the dawning of a New Age. And yet, from the counterculture movement of the 1960s, through the War on Drugs, to this very day, the world at large has viewed hallucinogens not as a gift but as a threat to society. In Hallucinogens, Charles Grob surveys recent writings from such important thinkers as Terence McKenna, Huston Smith, and Andrew Weil, illustrating that a reevaluation of the social worth of hallucinogens-used intelligently-is greatly in order.

Download or read book We Who Desire written by Sue Swartz and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-04 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Genesis to Deuteronomy, from "Bereshit" to "Zot Haberacha," from Eden to Gaza, from Eve to Emma Goldman, "we who desire" interweaves the mythic and the mundane as it follows the arc of the Torah with carefully chosen words, astute observations, and deep emotion. ""we who desire" began as daily writing practice, a poem on the weekly Torah portion. I refined, edited, slashed, leaving only those words that tell a story, the real story of creation and covenant, liberation and desire. Especially desire. I have turned it and turned it for decades, this manual of instruction, this text that called me into forever. Turned it until the words felt right, until I was able to admit its hold on me. Fire and splendor. Fire and splendor." -Sue Swartz Sue Swartz has used a brilliant, fortified, playful, serious, humanely furious moral imagination, and a poet's love of the music of language, to re-tell the saga of the Bible you thought you knew-and make its implications crystal clear for the life you are right now living. Amen. -Alicia Ostriker, author, "For the Love of God: The Bible as an Open Book" Consistently on key, Swartz's lyrical voice moves deftly between the Biblical past and our gritty, contemporary moment-often interweaving the two in surprising ways. -Yehoshua November, author, "God's Optimism" Sue Swartz does magnificent acrobatics with the Torah in We Who Desire. She takes the English that's become staid and boring, and adds something that's new and strange and exciting. These are poems that leave a taste in your mouth, and you walk away from them thinking, what did I just read? Oh, yeah. It's the Bible. -Matthue Roth, author, "Yom Kippur A Go-Go," "My First Kafka" It is more than their accessibility that marks Sue Swartz's poems as special - it is the access they give the reader to sudden emotion: wonder, desire, laughter, hurt. Swartz has taken the well-worn motif of Torah commentary-in-verse and created something entirely new and entirely wonderful. -Lawrence Bush, author, "American Torah Toons," "Waiting for God: The Spiritual Explorations of a Reluctant Atheist""
