Download or read book Saint John the Essene written by Olivier Manitara and published by Éditions Essénia. This book was released on 2019-10-25 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to the "The Da Vinci Code", millions of enthusiastic readers have been able to discover the secret history of Christianity, and its mysterious filiation dating back to the time of Jesus. Faced with the immense interest in this subject, the contemporary Essene School has decided to transmit certain elements of the true story of John, the beloved disciple of Christ. Thanks to Olivier Manitara's revelations, we discover why Saint John, Mary Magdalene and Jesus (who were childhood friends) left their mark on history and how they have created an unbroken secret filiation to this day. After Jesus' departure, the outer church was entrusted to St. Peter. As for St. John, he then became the bearer of the other face of Christ, of his secret Doctrine. He founded a School of Mysteries in Ephesus with the help of the mother of Jesus, Mary, the great Essene initiate. Through his power of access to the timeless archives of the Essene Tradition, also called the Fifth Gospel, Olivier Manitara allows us to discover all these revelations on the hidden side of Christianity.

Download or read book Sex and Enlightenment written by Rita Goldberg and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1984-06-21 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dr Goldberg argues that Samuel Richardson had expressed a powerful and hitherto unperceived sexual mythology in Clarissa, making it the popular masterpiece it quickly became. There had never before been a work of literature in which the rape of a woman became the moral indictment of an age. Clarissa was a book which changed minds. It is not surprising that Diderot, the French philosophe, drew on Richardson as the inspiration for his own novel, La Religieuse. Richardson's novels had achieved Diderot's declared aim as editor of the great Encyclopédie: to change the way people think. For both writers it had become clear that the boudoir had replaced the Puritan closet and the Catholic confessional as the location for tests of virtue. Dr Goldberg offers an original, comparative reading of the works of these French and English innovators. She leaves us in little doubt that our understanding of what it means to be a woman in our culture owes much to the turbulent world of Richardson and Diderot.

Download or read book The Way Of One And The Fate of a World Divided written by W.Alexander Wheeler, Ph.D. and published by The Paul Solomon Foundation. This book was released on 2019-04-25 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One need not hear the words of a prophet to know that we stand at the brink of explosive global change unparalleled in the history of the the world. But if we are given the words of a prophet and fail to pay heed, such change can now only lead to the final self-destructive act in the human tragedy. This book delivers to humanity a message, commissioned by no less than the universal and unlimited Source of all knowledge, wisdom, and vision, critical to the future survival of our world. Like a topographical map that from a "bird's-eye view" indicates to us the path of least resistance, the Source points the way beyond war and violence, greed, and fear and toward a higher transcendental sanity to match the needs of the critical times in which we live - The Way of One. Given the ever-increasing speed at which we are advancing toward our final destiny, we can ill-afford to defy or ignore the immortal and dramatic vision of truth that is contained within these pages.
Download or read book Advances in Utopian Studies and Sacred Architecture written by Claudio Gambardella and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-02-02 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At a time dominated by the disappearance of Future, as claimed by the French anthropologist Marc Augé, Utopia and Religion seem to be two different ways of giving back an inner horizon to mankind. Therefore this book, on the one hand, considers the importance of utopia as a tool and how it offers an economic and social resource to improve cities’ wealth, future and livability. On the other, it explores the impact of religious and cultural ideals on cities that have recently emerged in this context. Based on numerous observations, the book examines the intellectual legacy of utopian theory and practices across various academic disciplines. It also presents discussions, theories, and case studies addressing a range of issues and topics related to utopia.
Download or read book From Darkness to Light written by Despo Pishiri and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2021-08-16 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a client hypnosis session, author Despo Pishiri unintentionally managed to communicate with her Higher Self. The client was in a deep state of hypnosis, and Despo’s Higher Self used this opportunity to talk to her through her client. The Higher Self provided valuable information about Despo’s past lives which triggered her curiosity to understand the mechanisms involved in the process of spiritual development. This initial channeling encouraged her to find her true self, and it became the catalyst for writing this, her first book, From Darkness to Light. With a blend of personal and professional testimony, she reinforces the message of love, compassion, and tolerance inherent in the three religions of Hinduism, Buddhism, and Christianity against the backdrop of knowing who you are. She stresses the similarities between the three religions and reinforces the ideas of their teachings. Useful and enlightening, From Darkness to Light shares Despo’s personal discoveries as well as offers principles about self and healing your body, mind and spirit.

Download or read book Ongoing Conversion From Good to Better written by Fr. Henry J. Charles and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a compilation of homilies of Fr. Henry Charles composed and delivered over a period of at least twenty years. The homilies were written out and were eventually typed up and it is possible that Fr. Henry had himself thought about publishing them, though we do not know this for sure. While many persons were privileged to receive emailed copies and others actually heard his preaching, the homilies were thought to be deserving of a wider audience. The underlying message of his preaching is that discipleship of Jesus Christ requires not only the grace of faith but also demands perseverance, courage and discipline, critical elements of the process he terms "ongoing conversion." In addition, Fr. Henry advocates moral excellence, not settling for the merely moderate or the mediocre, but striving always to "be perfect." Fr. Henry faces up to and wrestles with the "perplexities" of the Gospel and he believed that one of the keys to overcoming these is an appreciation of its many paradoxes and that as a consequence, we are required to see things from a different perspective, not as we are normally inclined to see them, but as God sees them. The homilies have been arranged thematically On God; On Jesus; What Jesus Calls Us To Be; What Jesus Calls Us To Do; Faith; Hope; Love; Loss, Suffering, Death and Heaven; Virtues and Vices; Human Dignity; Spirituality; Church, Liturgy and Ritual and Culture Society and Leadership. There is of course considerable overlap among the various themes. The subjects he refers to and the examples he gives are contemporary and relevant, not only to a Caribbean audience, but we think to audiences globally. The style is informal and conversational for the most part and this quality of the writing has been maintained. The homilies have been edited for clarity and for obvious errors and omissions in the transcripts, and some have been retitled, but they have otherwise been reproduced and stand as he wrote them.
