Download or read book Other Creations written by Christopher Manes and published by Doubleday Books. This book was released on 1997 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Saint Bernard, despite its name, is unwelcome in church. Any dog, cat, sheep, terrapin, or bird clearly faces this same prohibition. Do animals have any relevance to humanity's continuing search for a spiritually rich life? Have they ever? Modern religions have all but banished the animal kingdom from our places of worship, and the non-human world has become increasingly marginalized and left out of religious discourse. And yet, just beneath the surface lies a lush tradition of animal archetypes, a spiritual bestiary in which Satan appears as a serpent, Jesus as the Lamb of God, and the Holy Spirit as a dove. Jehovah tests the depths of Daniel's belief in a lion's den. Our cathedrals teem with stone eagles, stags, and other symbolic fauna. Our deepest moral ideas find expression through animal stories like Aesop's fables, the Buddhist Jataka, and Orwell's Animal Farm. At the prehistoric heart of humanity's attempts to articulate spiritual sentiments, we find the caves of Lascaux and images, not of white-robed deities, but of the giant beasts of the Ice Age. Christopher Manes's groundbreaking Other Creations uncovers this tradition as it flourished in the past and as it lives on today. In this fascinating study, unlike any yet published, Manes shows how animals embodied our first attempts to express spirituality - as seen in the cave paintings of Ice Age Europeand how they continue to do so today in subtle, even unperceived ways, such as through sports team mascots, horror films, and toys. Drawing on both his literary scholarship and his personal search for a deeper experience of faith, Manes demonstrates that animals do not simply decorate our religious lives; they are part of the very texture of human spirituality.
Download or read book Creators and Friends written by Robert Shapiro and published by Light Technology Publishing. This book was released on 2012-07-01 with total page 754 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans--creators in training--have a purpose and destiny so heartwarmingly, profoundly glorious that it is almost unbelievable from our present dimensional perspective. Humans are great lightbeings from beyond this creation, gaining experience in dense physicality by slowing down the creative process in order to feel the results and consequences of their decisions and actions. This truth about the great human genetic experiment of the Explorer Race and the mechanics of creation is being revealed for the first time by Zoosh and his friends as humanity begins to awaken to its true nature. Zoosh and a great assortment of beings who have never spoken to the physical plane before--from particles to All That Is--speak vibrantly through superchannel Robert Shapiro. Each personality has its own knowing, perception and expertise as it shares its history, its present focus and the awesome truth about humanity's mission. The books read like adventure stories as we follow the clues from this creation we live in out to the Council of Creators and beyond. As we explore the greater reality beyond our planet, our galaxy, our dimension, our creation, we meet prototypes, designers, shapemakers, creators, creators of creators and friends of our Creator, who explain their roles in this creation and their experiences before and beyond this creation. As our awareness expands about the way creation works, our awareness of who we are expands and we realize that a part of ourselves is in that vast creation -- and that we are much greater and more magnificent than even science fiction had led us to believe. Join us in the adventure of discovery. It's mind-stretching.
Download or read book Sensationality written by William Clark and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-10 with total page 530 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the contents of this publication were easy to understand, it would be a much shorter book. It's easy to wonder why being in love with someone or living in fear is so different from liking or being afraid of one thing or another. Differences arise, because what we "like", for example, is definable but who we "love" isn't. We assume that all words are definable, but love isn't, and neither is faith, appreciation, passion, or a host of other words which relate to love. In truth, we can't define the sensation of fear, sin, or temptation either. Why is it that we give such importance to words which can't be defined, and why is it that many of our "words", including mind, soul, and God, escape definition when we're certain that we "know what they mean?" It's only by "appreciating" certain words, that an "understanding" is achieved. Our relationship with God the Father, Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit are explored. Not in a theological context, but a "sensational" one-not so different from a "sixth sense" perspective. Contents of this book also include considerations of anger, addiction, homosexuality, pain management, and much more. An attempt is made to tie up all these seemingly diverse subjects into one tightly knit package.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: War of Intelligences introduces the fierce struggle taking place between the two concepts of Intelligences: the Dark and the Enlightened.

The Dark Intelligence or the Domain of Darkness, as it is depicted in the book, was the chaos that preceded all. It was the beginning described in the book of Genesis.

Download or read book Holy Quran s Judgement Part 1 written by M.S.M Abdullah (Rah) and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The five principles, namely the Quran; Hadith; Ijma; Kiyas and common sense makes and stabilizes the whole of Islam. I have observed that the writings and commentaries of a few who are ignorant or are not fully versed in the knowledge of the Quran and Hadith are taken as the root by a few, who by their writings, commentaries and orations are propagating ideas that are a distortion of and in complete variance with the religion of Islam and thus create "Bid`ah" amongst the public. To those who seek genuine and authentic ideas of the Quran and Hadith, these expositions have become stumbling blocks. Therefore, I seek to expostulate the basic facts and ideas with supporting evidences that constitute Islam that I gained by years of painstaking and difficult research. The style of writing in this book is much against the traditions and style adopted in normal book writing. It is not divided into chapters but mere orations; some ideas are repeated several times and that too in many different angles. I, therefore seek your indulgence and patience to read and understand and do not come to conclusions by just going through parts of the book. The contractual obligations between you the reader and me is that if you are a Mumin who fully believes in Allah and Rasool (Quran and Hadith) then study this book, if not do not lay hands on this book.

Download or read book The Books of Simion written by Ivory Simion and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-01-23 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Warning: The Books of Simion are the most Profound books of knowledge that have ever been delivered to the Gentile nations. The Books of Simion are written for kings and all in authority only so kings and all in authority can determine what is best for the people. The Books of Simion are the books of records that are referred to as the books of remembrance that are written for kings and all in authority so kings and all in authority are not dishonored and their kingdoms are not destroyed by deceptions (Ezra 4:1415 and Malachi 3:16). The Books of Simion are the translation of the Holy Bible and the ancient scriptures by those who are scattered, whose ancestors were slaves and persecuted in Egypt for 430 years. Later in the latter days, ascendants were taken to a foreign land named America on ships in bondage and held there as slaves and persecuted for 430 years that the Holy Bible has identified as Gods chosen people and Gods firstborn. There is no other interpretation and translation of the Holy Bible and the end-time prophesies of the God of Abraham by any other race of people on the planet earth that is better(Genesis 15:1314, Acts 7:67, Deuteronomy 28:68, Jeremiah 30:3, Jeremiah 30:18, Luke 21:24, John 11:52, Joel 3:1, and Exodus 4:22). The Books of Simion will connect all of the dots or events in history together with the Holy Bible and the ancient scriptures to bring events and scriptures together, to make sense of what happened in our past, to understand what is happening in our present, and to determine what will happen in the future. The readers will learn more about the Holy Bible, God and the devil, the extraterrestrials, the old black African dominion, and the new white Gentile dominion from the Books of Simion than they have learned and understood from the combined books and learning institutions they have been exposed to all of the their lives. For the first time in the readers lives, they will understand what they could never understand before. Without the Books of Simion, the readers will go from university to university constantly learning but never able to come to the knowledge of the truth (2 Timothy 3:7). All of the great secrets, including the mystery of the gospel, have been revealed in the Books of Simion. Because the world was started over to give the Gentiles a second chance for salvation in the world we live in today, the final outcome from all of our actions and choices of today will be revealed, as well as what we all must do to inherit the earth. Absolutely nothing is more important than knowing the final outcome from last time before we make our final choices this time. Prepare yourself.
Download or read book Science and Spirituality written by Zahid Khan and published by Khanverlag. This book was released on with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Spirituality and religion are like a tree with its fruits. Spirituality is the fruit of religion and enables to make observations and experiences in the spiritual world. In itself, religion is blind. If you stay at its level and don't develop beyond it, then you get nothing but blind faith. Aside from religious practices, every religion only conveys hope of a better place in the life after death. Spirituality and science search for the Creator in parallel, directly or indirectly. Science explores how things were created, and spirituality gives the answer to why the creation came about. This book will help to understand the human mind and heart at the same time. If both develop, they meet at one point, which leads to a higher spiritual growth of human beings.

He has thrown a challenge to anyone who can disprove this truth offering a handsome reward. Until now no one has come forward to take up his challenge. Allah is an arbitrary name and it does not point to something static or stationery. This name denotes something beyond time and space and the reach of human knowledge and has manifested as the whole universe. If one becomes aware of this truth, peace and tranquility will be eternal in his heart and mind.

Download or read book All Pets Go To Heaven written by Sylvia Browne and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-01-06 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pets have a special place in our hearts and homes -- but do they share our destiny after death? World famous psychic, spiritual teacher, and New York Times bestselling author Sylvia Browne exercises her astonishing insight to illustrate the very special purpose our pets have on Earth -- and what animals experience after death. Cats, dogs, horses, and other creatures not only inhabit our homes but also our hearts. With their never-ending loyalty, heroic deeds, comic behavior, and vibrant personalities, pets are companions but can also be our closest friends and dearest confidants. The death of a pet is always heart wrenching and tragic. Legendary psychic Sylvia Browne provides comfort for those grieving over the loss of a beloved animal by showing how pets continue to be with us even after their deaths. Sylvia uses forty years of research and decades' worth of true stories culled from readings and her own experiences to show how our pets have unique personalities, quirks, and habits that make up their spirit and soul. Sharing heartwarming stories from pets on both sides of life, Sylvia Browne examines how our animals live in the afterlife, whether we will see them on the Other Side, how their presence affects us daily, and where animals fit into the whole of Creation. In All Pets Go to Heaven, Sylvia Browne explains how pets, like humans, have a spirit that travels to the Other Side.
Download or read book P R I S M Primal Religious Instruction Serving Mankind written by M.B.O OWOLOWO and published by SCOPE MEDIA GROUP. This book was released on 2021-04-04 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religion is an integral part of mankind and affects everybody, regardless of religious inclination or posturing. The reality of our contemporary world is that matters of religion will literally stare you in the face – it’s ineluctable. There exists a wide spectrum of dedication, disinclination and aversion to religion, and the potential extremism among all categories is existential. In certain instances, adopted positions sometimes manifest as an aversion to religion, and by extension God. Historically, great minds, thinkers, philosophers and scientists have tried to decipher the meaning of life, and the matter of religion played a recurring role. In understanding the complexities of religion, the matter should ideally be approached via holistic and historical analysis, with the aim of unravelling its primal objective. The propositions of this project are derived from various academic sources, including theological exegesis – primarily Biblical and Quranic. P.R.I.S.M considers every form of belief and non-belief: from the agnostic to the atheist, Christian to Hindu, Jew to Muslim, and traditionalist to Zoroastrian. Maybe the concept of religion has been misunderstood and misrepresented? P.R.I.S.M is a multidisciplinary and rational approach to the matter of God and religion, from a universal viewpoint. Potentially, a proper understanding of these issues may assist mankind in its quest for peaceful coexistence.
