  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book The Continuous Path written by Samuel Duwe and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2019-04-16 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southwestern archaeology has long been fascinated with the scale and frequency of movement in Pueblo history, from great migrations to short-term mobility. By collaborating with Pueblo communities, archaeologists are learning that movement was—and is—much more than the result of economic opportunity or a response to social conflict. Movement is one of the fundamental concepts of Pueblo thought and is essential in shaping the identities of contemporary Pueblos. The Continuous Path challenges archaeologists to take Pueblo notions of movement seriously by privileging Pueblo concepts of being and becoming in the interpretation of anthropological data. In this volume, archaeologists, anthropologists, and Native community members weave multiple perspectives together to write histories of particular Pueblo peoples. Within these histories are stories of the movements of people, materials, and ideas, as well as the interconnectedness of all as the Pueblo people find, leave, and return to their middle places. What results is an emphasis on historical continuities and the understanding that the same concepts of movement that guided the actions of Pueblo people in the past continue to do so into the present and the future. Movement is a never-ending and directed journey toward an ideal existence and a continuous path of becoming. This path began as the Pueblo people emerged from the underworld and sought their middle places, and it continues today at multiple levels, integrating the people, the village, and the individual.

Book In Love and Trust

Download or read book In Love and Trust written by Thich Nhat Hanh and published by Parallax Press. This book was released on 2024-10-22 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh’s expressions of love, connection, and wisdom through deep and personal letters—now published in English for the very first time. Widely recognized for his profound yet accessible teachings on the art of mindful living, Thich Nhat Hanh lived a rich life dedicated to fostering community and connection within and outside of the monastery walls. In Love and Trust offers a striking look at Thich Nhat Hanh as seen through his intimate letters to monastics, lay practitioners, allies in the peace movement, and other friends on the path. Through these touching pieces of correspondence, we see Thich Nhat Hanh at his warmest and most inspirational, at his most candid and direct. These personal messages of love and trust demonstrate the deeply human origins of Thich Nhat Hanh’s teachings—and his own deeply human expression of them. In Love and Trust is composed primarily of newly translated letters, presented here in English for the first time. The book features images of archival, hand-written letters throughout.

Book The Prophet and the Bodhisattva

Download or read book The Prophet and the Bodhisattva written by Charles R. Strain and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2014-02-19 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can religious individuals and communities learn from each other in ways that will lead them to collaborate in addressing the great ethical challenges of our time, including climate change and endless warfare? This is the central question underlying The Prophet and the Bodhisattva. It juxtaposes two figures emblematic of an ideal moral life: the prophet as it evolved in ancient Israel and the bodhisattva as it flowered in Mahayana Buddhism. In particular, The Prophet and the Bodhisattva focuses on Daniel Berrigan and Thich Nhat Hanh, who in their lives embody and in their writings reflect upon their respective moral type. Berrigan, a Jesuit priest, pacifist, and poet, is best known for burning draft files in 1968 and for hammering and pouring blood on a nuclear warhead in 1980. His extensive writings on the Hebrew prophets reflect his life of nonviolent activism. Thich Nhat Hanh, Buddhist monk, Vietnamese exile, and poet struggled to end the conflict during the Vietnam War. Since then he has led the global movement that he named Engaged Buddhism and has written many commentaries on Mahayana scriptures. For fifty years both have been teaching us how to pursue peace and justice, a legacy we can draw upon to build a social ethics for our time.

Book Journey to the Fifth Dimension   A Divine Journey

Download or read book Journey to the Fifth Dimension A Divine Journey written by Maria Zavou and published by BalboaPress. This book was released on 2012-03-22 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: JOURNEY TO THE FIFTH DIMENSION A true transcendental journey to the homeland of the psyche A DIVINE JOURNEY To the dimension where the future is grounded The Fifth dimension is an inner dimension which is administered by the divine essence of the universe, with thousands of galaxies. The so called Nefelon Galaxy has millions of stars, all of them inhabited. All of the stars pulsate with high frequencies and belong to spheres of different perception. There exist forms; though the molecular synthesis is more subtle. The Nephelon Galaxy is the world of the completed existence, where future mutations are planned and ascertained. It is there that everything is materialized and then channeled to open-minded people on Earth. As time travelers, we can now journey to the wonderful planets of the Nephelon Galaxy, and participate in advanced programs of self-awareness and transmutation to receive divine genetic proto-forms through hyper frequencies. Divine power is therefore activated from these advanced programs, and the participants develop hyper awareness and intellect. Thus, their neurons are transformed, certain charismas appear, and creation and material abundance emerge within the people who experience psychic and spiritual advancement; love is upgraded. The high frequency vibrations activate the union of soul-mates, bonded with love energy of a higher level, while womens uteruses are mutated in order to bear crystalline souls. The rising number of births of crystalline souls defines a new circle of Earths evolution and developmentpreparing the way for the meta-humans. This book contains secret keys, which constitute codes for mutation and transformationcodes that activate the psychic archives of people. Thus its readers, unconsciously, go through the initiation stages and ascend evolutionary levels.

Book Brothers in the Beloved Community

Download or read book Brothers in the Beloved Community written by Marc Andrus and published by Parallax Press. This book was released on 2021-11-16 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The “beautiful and wise account” of Martin Luther King Jr. and Zen Buddhist Thich Nhat Hanh, who “gave greater life to all of us through their remarkable friendship and shared vision of nonviolence” (Joan Halifax, author of Standing at the Edge). The day after Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated in 1968, Thich Nhat Hanh wrote a heartbroken letter to their mutual friend Raphael Gould. He said: "I did not sleep last night. . . . They killed Martin Luther King. They killed us. I am afraid the root of violence is so deep in the heart and mind and manner of this society. They killed him. They killed my hope. I do not know what to say. . . . He made so great an impression in me. This morning I have the impression that I cannot bear the loss." Only a few years earlier, Thich Nhat Hanh wrote an open letter to Martin Luther King Jr. as part of his effort to raise awareness and bring peace in Vietnam. There was an unexpected outcome of Nhat Hanh's letter to King: The two men met in 1966 and 1967 and became not only allies in the peace movement, but friends. This friendship between two prophetic figures from different religions and cultures, from countries at war with one another, reached a great depth in a short period of time. Dr. King nominated Thich Nhat Hanh for the Nobel Peace Prize in 1967. He wrote: "Thich Nhat Hanh is a holy man, for he is humble and devout. He is a scholar of immense intellectual capacity. His ideas for peace, if applied, would build a monument to ecumenism, to world brotherhood, to humanity." The two men bonded over a vision of the Beloved Community: a vision described recently by Congressman John Lewis as "a nation and world society at peace with itself." It was a concept each knew of because of their membership within the Fellowship of Reconciliation, an international peace organization, and that Martin Luther King Jr. had been popularizing through his work for some time. Thich Nhat Hanh, Andrus shows, took the lineage of the Beloved Community from King and carried it on after his death.

Book Handbook of Death and Dying

Download or read book Handbook of Death and Dying written by Clifton D. Bryant and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2003-10-01 with total page 1146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a singular reference tool . . . essential for academic libraries." --Reference & User Services Quarterly "Students, professionals, and scholars in the social sciences and health professions are fortunate to have the ′unwieldy corpus of knowledge and literature′ on death studies organized and integrated. Highly recommended for all collections." --CHOICE "Excellent and highly recommended." --BOOKLIST "Well researched with lengthy bibliographies . . .

Its multidisciplinary nature makes it an excellent addition to academic collections." --LIBRARY JOURNAL "Researchers and students in many social sciences and humanities disciplines, the health and legal professions, and mortuary science will find the Handbook of Death and Dying valuable. Lay readers will also appreciate the Handbook′s wide-ranging coverage of death-related topics. Recommended for academic, health sciences, and large public libraries." --E-STREAMS Dying is a social as well as physiological phenomenon. Each society characterizes and, consequently, treats death and dying in its own individual ways—ways that differ markedly. These particular patterns of death and dying engender modal cultural responses, and such institutionalized behavior has familiar, economical, educational, religious, and political implications. The Handbook of Death and Dying takes stock of the vast literature in the field of thanatology, arranging and synthesizing what has been an unwieldy body of knowledge into a concise, yet comprehensive reference work. This two-volume handbook will provide direction and momentum to the study of death-related behavior for many years to come. Key Features More than 100 contributors representing authoritative expertise in a diverse array of disciplines Anthropology Family Studies History Law Medicine Mortuary Science Philosophy Psychology Social work Sociology Theology A distinguished editorial board of leading scholars and researchers in the field More than 100 definitive essays covering almost every dimension of death-related behavior Comprehensive and inclusive, exploring concepts and social patterns within the larger topical concern Journal article length essays that address topics with appropriate detail Multidisciplinary and cross-cultural coverage EDITORIAL BOARD Clifton D.
