Download or read book Relapse into Bondage written by Sherman David Spector and published by Histria Books. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Relapse into Bondage is the political memoir of Alexandru Cretzianu, a key Romanian diplomat during the interwar period and World War II. Cretzianu faithfully presents himself as pro-Western, pro-French, pro-British, and pro-League of Nations. He demonstrates that Romania did not freely join the Axis, but had no alternative but to do so after Britain and France abandoned the Little Entente in 1938. Cretzianu's memoirs are a gold mine of information for those interested in all aspects of Romanian foreign policy during this critical period, as well as in European diplomatic history generally.The editor, Sherman David Spector, was a professor of history at Russell Sage College in Troy, New York. His other works include Romania at the Paris Peace Conference: A Study in the Diplomacy of Ioan I.C. Bratianu.

Book The Param  rthas  ra of   di   e   a

Download or read book The Param rthas ra of di e a written by Ādiśeṣa and published by Jain Publishing Company. This book was released on 2003 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Paramarthasara, or Epitome of the Highest Truth, is perhaps the earliest work on Advaita Vedanta in existence. Attributed to Adi Sesa, the primeval serpent, or at least to his incarnation Patanjali, it gives in a mere 85 verses employing ancient Samkhya terminology a succinct statement of the highest truths taught in non-dual Vedanta. Its teachings have many parallels to those found in Gaudapada's famous Mandukya-karika. This edition includes the original Sanskrit text. Added to this edition is the later Kashmir Saiva work of the same name, written by Abhinavagupta, which is based on Adi Sesa's earlier work.

Book Changing the Lightbulb

Download or read book Changing the Lightbulb written by Nicholas B. and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-08 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TO CHANGE THE THINGS WE CAN" In surviving substance abuse addiction, it is not so much about the things that can be changed as recognizing the things that are out of our control. What makes addiction a deadly disease is that our distorted thinking wants to pick and choose the battle lines. This closed form of thinking, which is about how much we fight instead of accept, is the reason that millions go to their grave each year as a consequence. Many of those who die are collateral damage to the devastation of our addictions. Medical science has yet to create an antidote for pride, which keeps the addict in the bondage of self. This bondage insures that there appears to be no way out because of our powerlessness to change. It is our pride, which is false and misplaced because of distorted thinking, that tells us that we cannot be worthy unless we can run our own lives. The value that society places on pride only reinforces our distorted thinking. Power to change comes from stepping aside and letting the powers already in place work without interference. This is not an easy task for individuals who have invested all their resources on the proposition that the most important thing is to be able to control the way we feel.

Book Struggles for Peace and Justice

Download or read book Struggles for Peace and Justice written by Karl-Julius Reubke and published by Studera Press. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 684 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work by Karl-Julius Reubke embodies labours of experience and reflection spanning almost 20 years. It is rich with many kinds of detail but above all Reubke’s work accomplishes something the late German philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer called a Horizontverschmelzung, a merging of horizons in service of an act of understanding. Reubke, a German himself, a former chemist, a follower of Rudolph Steiner, a self-taught Sanskrit scholar and translator of ancient texts, sympathetically merges those horizons with an equally complex set of horizons arising from India: the post-colonial search for a coherent tradition in one of the oldest civilizations, the emergence of early modern spiritual and nationalist thinking, the complex challenges posed by Gandhi’s ethico-spiritual vision, and then finally, from the contemporary India driven and riven by the forces of globalization, the horizon of a civil/social movement inspired by Gandhi and Vinobha, namely Ekta Parishad. Reubke describes this movement, inspired and led by PV Rajagopal from the inside with a personal touch and a uncannily reflective eye. All of this is an accomplishment of some note and worthy of our attention especially as we now turn to confront how we as people of the planet will face the ecological disaster our way of living has created. This too is a task of “comprehension” which Hannah Arendt described as the work of “the unpremeditated facing up to, and resisting of, reality—whatever it may be.” - Paul Schwartzentruber, Independent Scholar and Activist, Halifax, Canada If you wish to know what Satyagraha is all about, read this candid, reflective account of the struggle for freedom and justice Gandhi and his contemporaries waged during the twentieth century and P V Rajagopal and Ekta Parishad have been engaged in during the 21st. Extremely timely and morally challenging. - Manoranjan Mohanty, Former Professor of Political Science, University of Delhi, New Delhi, India This book is invaluable in challenging us to develop nonviolent mass movements addressing the needs of those who are oppressed and suffering the most, the impoverished, the exploited, those thrown off their lands, adivasis, women, and why such movements are necessary for greater peace and justice. - Douglas Allen, Professor of Philosophy, The University of Maine, USA This brilliant book, the first major scholarly study of Ekta Parishad, demonstrates how rights-based mass mobilisations in contemporary India adapt Gandhian ideas in their struggle for justice and in negotiating state politics and policies, with grit and compassion. - Arnab Roy Chowdhury, Assistant Professor, Higher School of Economics (HSE), Moscow, Russian Federation This impressive volume addresses the topic, which is possibly the most important of our time: global solidarity. And it does so from the perspective of the global South, drawing especially on Gandhi and Ekta Parishad. The result is a very unique combination of scholarship and vision for the future that is a must-read for all students of India and Indian thought but also for those looking for inspiration in the times of global crisis and the return of nationalisms and fascisms. - Boike Rehbein, Professor, Humbolt University, Berlin, Germany In a world in deep need of global solidarity as we enter an era challenged with the Covid-19 pandemic, global economic devastation, the continuing epidemic of racism, and with an existential climate crisis, Ekta Parishad shines a bright new light for humanity and our human challenges. This book and this organization confront these challenges boldly and head-on. Jai Jagat!! - David Blake Willis, Professor, Fielding Graduate University, USA

Download or read book The Dialectic of the Holy written by Robert E. Meditz and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2016-09-12 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first published book-length treatment on Paul Tillich and Judaism, which is a neglected aspect of Tillich’s thought. It has three compelling features. First, pivotal biographical details show the importance of Judaism for Tillich, and that he ardently opposed anti-Semitism before WWII and after the Holocaust. Second, Tillich’s theological method is examined in key primary sources to show how he maintains continuity between Judaism and Christianity. The primary source analysis includes his 1910 and 1912 dissertations on Schelling, the 1933 The Socialist Decision, the 1952 Berlin lectures on “the Jewish Question,” and his final public lecture on the importance of the history of religion for systematic theology. Particular attention is paid to his dialectical and theological history of religion. Third, Tillich’s positive theology of Judaism contrasts sharply with the many complex, negative ways in which Judaism is portrayed in Western thought. This contributes significantly to our understanding the evolving history of Christian anti-Judaism.
