Download or read book The Jedi in the Lotus written by Steven Rosen and published by Arktos. This book was released on 2010 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jedi in the Lotus is the first-ever examination of the Star Wars universe from a Hindu perspective, illuminating many hitherto undiscovered aspects of the background and meaning of the widely acclaimed film series. We are shown how its creators were influenced by the famed mythologist, Joseph Campbell, whose reading of the ancient Indian Epics, the Ramayana and Mahabharata, can be seen throughout the Star Wars films. This book also demonstrates how the metaphysical understanding of the Jedi Knights and the divinity conceived of as 'the Force' have resonances with teachings passed down by Hindu gurus and mystics for centuries, and how fantastic worlds and technology similar to that of the Star Wars universe were described in myths that are millennia old - and may even have had some basis in reality. Finally, The Jedi in the Lotus shows us how the Hindu traditions at the basis of Star Wars offer an alternative vision to the purely materialistic, soulless world of modernity. Steven J. Rosen (Satyaraja Dasa) is an initiated disciple of His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada. He is also founding editor of the Journal of Vaishnava Studies and associate editor of Back to Godhead. He has published twenty-one books in numerous languages, including the recent Essential Hinduism (Rowman & Littlefield, 2008); The Yoga of Kirtan: Conversations on the Sacred Art of Chanting (FOLK Books, 2008); and Krishna's Other Song: A New Look at the Uddhava Gita (Praeger-Greenwood, 2010). 'In conclusion, I can only say that The Jedi in the Lotus is a breakthrough book when it comes to understanding the mythic depth of the Star Wars epics. Steven J. Rosen uses his masterful grasp of the Eastern traditions to explain the secrets of the most successful film series ever. This book also shows us why Joseph Campbell loved the wisdom tales from India, and, for those who found the Star Wars adventures memorable, this is a truly illuminating book.' - Dr. Jonathan Young, from the Foreword

Download or read book Lost and Found written by Mark D’Souza, MD and published by Morgan James Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-03 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the midst of unprecedented material wealth and technological advancement, a paradoxical crisis looms large – the crisis of meaning. Lost and Found, by Dr. Mark D’Souza, ventures deep into this quandary, addressing the poignant disconnects of our modern era. As workplaces remain trapped in a cacophony of disagreements, the world witnesses an opioid crisis showing no signs of remission. Drawing upon his extensive experience in medical practice and rich insights from philosophy, psychology, and literature, Dr. D’Souza traces this descent into chaos, marking Nietzsche’s assertion of the “death of God” as a pivotal moment in the annals of philosophical and societal thought. As the world grapples with the void left behind, emergent replacement religions—from climate alarmism to victimhood—attempt to fill the chasm, often adding to the turmoil. However, Lost and Found is not merely an analysis of our past mistakes and present predicaments. It is a guiding light, illuminating a path forward. With compelling arguments for the embrace of free speech, a return to the grounding principles of traditional religions, and an appeal for personal responsibility, Dr. D’Souza provides actionable solutions for the individual and society at large. For those weary of today’s cultural malaise and eager to mend our world, this book is an essential compass, guiding its readers toward a more cohesive and meaningful tomorrow.
