Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ¿Existe Dios? ¿Cómo podemos acercarnos a él en un mundo como el actual? ¿Tiene sentido buscar la trascendencia en el siglo XXI? ¿Qué convierte en humano a un ser humano? ¿Podemos vivir prescindiendo de la fe? ¿Hay vida después de la muerte? En este libro breve y certero, Alejandro Llano responde a estas y otras preguntas, y se interroga sobre el lugar que ocupa la vida del espíritu al comienzo del siglo XXI. Nos habla también de cómo buscar a Dios en un mundo cada vez más secularizado, y de cómo lograr el conocimiento de uno mismo y encontrar un verdadero amor que nos haga mejores. El autor reflexiona sobre la relación entre la fe y la ciencia a la luz de los últimos avances de la cosmología y la biología. Nos propone una búsqueda espiritual del sentido de la vida, allí donde el puro racionalismo no puede darnos respuestas. Y lo hace arropado por los grandes escritores y filósofos que han pensado sobre estos temas a lo largo de la historia. ¿Qué lugar ocupa Dios en el mundo de hoy? ¿Es posible vivir sin esperanza? Un libro que, con una prosa transparente, da respuesta a estas grandes preguntas.
Download or read book Orar con Jes s el rostro de Dios written by Agustín Filgueiras Pita and published by . This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La idea, el concepto, la visión que cada uno tiene de Dios es como el rostro de Dios que él ve. Y de la visión que tengamos depende, en gran parte, nuestra actitud ante Él. Las ideas falsas de Dios pueden inspirar cierto agradecimiento, temor, miedo, resentimiento, incluso odio... Pero jamás amor. Y no inspiran cariño porque tampoco hacen sentirlo: en esos rostros de Dios no se ve amor. Esos creyentes no se sienten queridos. Y, al que no se siente querido, le resulta imposible querer. Jesucristo es el rostro humano de Dios. En Jesús ya podemos contemplar el verdadero rostro divino, en la medida en que los hombres somos capaces de contemplarlo. En contra de lo que ocurría en el Antiguo Testamento, ahora ya se puede ver el rostro de Dios. Y puede verse porque Dios ha asumido un rostro humano. Eso es lo más grandioso y original de Cristianismo: la irrupción de Dios en la vida del hombre. No es el hombre quien busca a Dios. Es Dios quien viene a nuestro encuentro. Agustín Filgueiras Pita nació en Pontedeume, La Coruña. Fue ordenado sacerdote en Santiago de Compostela en 1959. Ejerció su sacerdocio seis años en dos pueblos. Durante otros treinta y cuatro se dedicó a la enseñanza y atención espiritual en dos colegios. Actualmente, colabora en una parroquia de la ciudad de La Coruña.
Download or read book CONEXI N DIRECTA CON DIOS written by Manuel Martín and published by Manuel Martín. This book was released on 2024-02-18 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Manuel Martín se sumergió en el estudio de disciplinas diversas como economía, periodismo, teología y metafísica en su búsqueda de la fe perdida y de una comprensión más profunda de las religiones y su relación con el mundo espiritual. Sin embargo, sus temores se confirmaron al constatar que la religión y la espiritualidad parecían estar completamente separadas, con los rituales religiosos convirtiéndose en meras formalidades en lugar de caminos hacia la elevación espiritual. Observó una profunda división en la sociedad, con algunos abrazando un nuevo credo en el capitalismo y otros buscando refugio en la espiritualidad debido a las dificultades del nuevo orden establecido. Su experiencia lo llevó a escribir el libro "Cómo reconecté con Dios", que aborda la transformación social surgida de la disminución de valores en muchas religiones ortodoxas y la falta de respeto hacia la creación de Dios. El libro plantea que las religiones institucionalizadas tradicionales están perdiendo poder y relevancia, mientras surgen nuevas formas de conexión espiritual al margen de las estructuras convencionales. El desencanto con el dogmatismo, los escándalos y la percepción de hipocresía en las religiones convencionales está llevando a muchos creyentes a explorar sistemas espirituales alternativos que les resultan más significativos. En el libro "Conexión directa con Dios" se critica que muchas religiones ortodoxas no han logrado transmitir adecuadamente valores humanos fundamentales, y su enfoque doctrinario se percibe como excluyente y deshumanizante. Como resultado, hay un resurgir de la espiritualidad libre de religiones orgánicas, con una búsqueda sincera del encuentro personal con la Fuente de todo cuanto existe. Muchos buscan respuestas en disciplinas como la astrología, la alquimia, textos gnósticos, profecías mayas y otros corpus que habían sido previamente descartados por su heterodoxia.

Download or read book Welcoming Children written by Joyce Ann Mercer and published by Chalice Press. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book develops a theology of childhood both from a theoretical basis in biblical theology (especially the gospel of Mark) and practical experience in children and youth ministry. Mercer builds on classical theologians such as Augustine, Calvin, Barth, and Rahner as well as modern feminist theologians such as Brock and Russell. She gains insights from pastoral theologians such as Capps and Couture and from contemporary cultural criticism. Mercer challenges approaches to educational and liturgical practices with children in congregations that segregate children from the rest of the church and its key practices of service, mission, worship, care, and learning. She reframes ministries with children as processes through which the church as a "community of practice" forms children into an alternative identity that resists surrounding consumerist culture and walks in the ways of Jesus. This book offers strategies for educational practices with children in congregations as it seeks to address the question, "What might educational practices that welcome children and contribute to their flourishing look like in the context of a faith community where children's learning happens in collaboration with experienced practitioners of faith?" Outlining a feminist practical theology of childhood, it explores five basic theological claims: (1) children as gifts and parenting as a religious practice of stewardship; (2) welcoming those who welcome and care for children; (3) children as already fully human; (4) children as part of the purposes of God; and (5) acknowledging and transforming the sufferings of children.

Book excerpt: Where is the common ground for feminist theory and Latin American culture? Jean Franco explores Mexican women's struggle for interpretive power in relation to the Catholic religion, the nation, and post-modern society; and examines the writings of women who wrote under the shadow of recognized male writers, as well as the works of more marginal figures. In this original and skillfully written book Franco demonstrates the many feminisms that emerge in apparently rigid and adverse situations, and provides the foundation for a more comprehensive, less ethnocentric feminst theory.

Download or read book Lucrecia s Dreams written by Richard L. Kagan and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1995-03-08 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Branded by the Spanish Inquisition as an "evil dreamer," a "notorious mother of prophets," the teenager Lucrecia de León had hundreds of bleak but richly imaginative dreams of Spain's future that became the stuff of political controversy and scandal. Based upon surviving transcripts of her dreams and on the voluminous records of her trial before the Inquisition, Lucrecia's Dreams traces the complex personal and political ramifications of Lucrecia's prophetic career. This hitherto unexamined episode in Spanish history sheds new light on the history of women as well as on the history of dream interpretation. Charlatan or clairvoyant, sinner or saint, Lucrecia was transformed by her dreams into a cause celébre, the rebellious counterpart to that other extraordinary woman of Golden Age Spain, St. Theresa of Jesus. Her supporters viewed her as a divinely inspired seer who exposed the personal and political shortcomings of Philip II of Spain. In examining the relation of dreams and prophecy to politics, Richard Kagan pays particular attention to the activities of the streetcorner prophets and female seers who formed the political underworld of sixteenth-century Spain.

Download or read book Writing Across Cultures written by Angel Rama and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2012-05-29 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ángel Rama was one of twentieth-century Latin America's most distinguished men of letters. Writing across Cultures is his comprehensive analysis of the varied sources of Latin American literature. Originally published in 1982, the book links Rama's work on Spanish American modernism with his arguments about the innovative nature of regionalist literature, and it foregrounds his thinking about the close relationship between literary movements, such as modernism or regionalism, and global trends in social and economic development. In Writing across Cultures, Rama extends the Cuban anthropologist Fernando Ortiz's theory of transculturation far beyond Cuba, bringing it to bear on regional cultures across Latin America, where new cultural arrangements have been forming among indigenous, African, and European societies for the better part of five centuries. Rama applies this concept to the work of the Peruvian novelist, poet, and anthropologist José María Arguedas, whose writing drew on both Spanish and Quechua, Peru's two major languages and, by extension, cultures. Rama considered Arguedas's novel Los ríos profundos (Deep Rivers) to be the most accomplished example of narrative transculturation in Latin America. Writing across Cultures is the second of Rama's books to be translated into English.
Download or read book Ozu written by Donald Richie and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 1977-03-15 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Substantially the book that devotees of the director have been waiting for: a full-length critical work about Ozu's life, career and working methods, buttressed with reproductions of pages from his notebooks and shooting scripts, numerous quotes from co-workers and Japanese critics, a great many stills and an unusually detailed filmography."—Sight and Sound Yasujiro Ozu, the man whom his kinsmen consider the most Japanese for all film directors, had but one major subject, the Japanese family, and but one major theme, its dissolution. The Japanese family in dissolution figures in every one of his fifty-three films. In his later pictures, the whole world exists in one family, the characters are family members rather than members of a society, and the ends of the earth seem no more distant than the outside of the house.
