There were about 140 invited participants from 29 countries and about the same num ber of other participants to the Extraordinary General Assembly of IAU who came to Torun to attend the sessions of this symposium. Special funds of the Polish Acade my of Sciences made possible the participation of several young astronomers in this meeting. We are very grateful to Professor P. Swings, the Director of the Astrophysical Institute of the University of Liege, Belgium, for accepting the task of chairing this symposium.

Download or read book Antiquity and Social Reform written by Dawn Hutchinson and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06-09 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although religious innovation in America has historically been the norm rather than the exception, mainstream Americans have often viewed new religious movements with suspicion and occasionally with outright alarm. The question motivating many studies of new religious movements has been “why would someone join these religions?” In Antiquity and Social Reform, Dawn Hutchinson offers at least one answer to this often repeated query. She argues that followers of new religious movements in the 1960s–1980s, specifically the Unification Church, Feminist Wicca and the Nation of Yahweh, considered these religions to be legitimate because they offered members a personal religious experience, a connection to an ancient tradition, and agency in improving their world. Utilizing an historical approach, Antiquity and Social Reform considers the conversion narratives of adherents and primary literature of the formative years of these movements, which demonstrates that the religious experiences of the adherents, and a resonance with the goals of these religions, propelled members into social action.

Download or read book Laws of the Spirit written by Ariel Evan Mayse and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2024-05-28 with total page 522 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compelling vision of religious life and practice found in Hasidic sources has made it the most enduring and successful Jewish movement of spiritual renewal of all time. In this book, Ariel Evan Mayse grapples with one of Hasidism's most vexing questions: how did a religious movement known for its radical views about immanence, revelation, and the imperative to serve God with joy simultaneously produce strict adherence to the structures and obligations of Jewish law? Exploring the movement from its emergence in the mid-1700s until 1815, Mayse argues that the exceptionality of Hasidism lies not in whether its leaders broke or upheld rabbinic norms, but in the movement's vivid attempt to rethink the purpose of Jewish ritual and practice. Rather than focusing on the commandments as law, he turns to the methods and vocabulary of ritual studies as a more productive way to reckon with the contradictions and tensions of this religious movement as well as its remarkable intellectual vitality. Mayse examines the full range of Hasidic texts from the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, from homilies and theological treatise to hagiography, letters, and legal writings, reading them together with contemporary theories of ritual. Arguing against the notion that spiritual integrity requires unshackling oneself from tradition, Laws of the Spirit is a sweeping attempt to rethink the meaning and significance of religious practice in early Hasidism.

Download or read book Provocations written by Camille Paglia and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 738 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Much has changed since Camille Paglia first burst onto the scene with her groundbreaking Sexual Personae, but the laser-sharp insights of this major American thinker continue to be ahead of the curve—not only capturing the tone of the moment but also often anticipating it. Opening with a blazing manifesto of an introduction in which Paglia outlines the bedrock beliefs that inform her writing—freedom of speech, the necessity of fearless inquiry, and a deep respect for all art, both erudite and popular—Provocations gathers together a rich, varied body of work spanning twenty-five years, illuminating everything from the Odyssey to the Oscars, from punk rock to presidents past and present. Whatever your political inclination or literary and artistic touchstones, Paglia’s takes are compulsively readable, thought provoking, galvanizing, and an essential part of our cultural dialogue, invariably giving voice to what most needs to be said.

For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: (Ephe.

Download or read book Beyond the Sphere written by Alfred Stefan Guart and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: People have reported encounters with God since the beginning of recorded history. Visitations gave rise to every major religion, influencing the hearts and minds of billions of believers. These powerful events are part of the human record, but it is unclear how accurate they are or how frequently they occur. However, reports from those who claim to have encountered Divinity are fairly consistent: There’s something unfathomable out there. Al Guart, a committed agnostic, diminished these accounts as possibly the result of overactive imaginations, mental illness, mythology or drugs – until the first of his unexpected encounters in 1980. He kept silent about his experiences over the past forty years, working to integrate them into daily life while trying to fathom how and why they happened. In this ground-breaking book, Al relives two Divine encounters in stark, journalistic detail. The first Visitation overwhelmed him with sheer jubilance, and the second – also imbued with joy – left him weeping as never before. Along the way, he takes a hard look at historical accounts of Divine appearances and challenges the renderings of God left in their wake. He offers the fruits of his spiritual inquiries for consideration but encourages readers to seek their own direct contact with the Creator - and to settle for nothing less.

Download or read book Pocket Idiot s Guide to Christianity written by Brian Wilson and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: -- Christians make up more than three-fourths of the U.S. adult population, at approximately 159 million, and come from more diverse backgrounds than ever before. -- Provides accurate information from a recognized scholar of comparative religions -- no prior knowledge required. -- Virtually no other pocket-sized titles taking a comparative-religion approach to Christianity. Christianity has always been America's predominant faith. Current studies show that Christianity's popularity is not letting up but that its ranks are growing. Moreover, it has been adopted by great numbers of people outside of Europe and North America, considered the largest religion in the world with 1.8 billion devotees. The Christianity of today, though based on traditional tenants of the faith, is richly varied in interpretation and practice around the world. The Pocket Idiot's Guide "RM" to Christianity starts by briefly tracing the origins of Christian thought with the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth and how his role as the Messiah transformed the faith. Following chapters will concisely present the growth of Christianity and its many traditions throughout the Middle Ages and finally to its period of reformation and resulting sectarian movements. Final sections will focus on the current globalization of Christianity, its effects on Christian practice and beliefs and the new challenges and opportunities the faith will confront going into the 21st century.
