Download or read book Journey to Noble Ideals written by M. Fethullah Gülen and published by Tughra Books. This book was released on 2014-12-07 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Journey to Noble Ideals is a compilation of speeches Fethullah Gulen delivered in Pennsylvania, USA, between 2012 and 2013. The book provides guidelines to build our individual ladders to self-discovery. In Gulen's prescription, climbing this ladder requires "lifelong contendedness," "a spirit of chivalry," "becoming soil to grow roses," "balance and moderation," "being self-critical," "not to be dizzy with worldly pleasures," and "sincerity of intention." Nourished from a millennium old accumulation of knowledge and tradition, Gulen speaks of preserving one's "chastity of thoughts" but not lagging behind, and instead soaring across the "horizons of spiritual knowledge." For Gulen, a healthy society is built on a "happy marriage," observing the "rights of neighbors," "sound reason," and "asking for forgiveness." Above all, his faith rests on a firm belief that "God is sufficient" for all. This work will be a source of inspiration for all the travelers' journeying to noble ideals.

Book excerpt: Today's African Americans, along with the entire nation and much of the world, are facing societal challenges that are monumental. But are the problems insurmountable? Let us never forget a people and a nation that had to overcome slavery and wrestle with countless obstacles to freedom, justice, and equality over the years. The solutions we seek lie in that past, in that history, and in the ideas espoused and, in some cases, acted upon. The question is whether we have the wisdom to listen and to learn and to take advantage of the advice given to us. Presented here are thirty-five of the most extraordinary visionary voices, including David Walker, Maria Stewart, Frederick Douglass, Henry Highland Garnet, Harriet Tubman, John M. Langston, John Brown, Abraham Lincoln, Sojourner Truth, Martin R. Delany, Benjamin "Pap" Singleton, Alexander Crummell, Henry McNeal Turner, Moses Fleetwood Walker, Booker T. Washington, Anna J. Cooper, W. E. B. Du Bois, Carter G. Woodson, A. Philip Randolph, Marcus Garvey, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, Mary McLeod Bethune, Father Divine, Charles Hamilton Houston, Adam Clayton Powell Jr., Paul Robeson, Fannie Lou Hamer, Lyndon Baines Johnson, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Stokely Carmichael, Huey P. Newton, Angela Davis, Jesse Jackson, and Barack Obama. In this collection, each "Black Pearl of Wisdom" addresses issues not only pertinent to African Americans but to all who want to gain perspective on the past's economic, social, and political legacy, as well as how the past's complexities continue to shape and define the world in which we live and the problems we must overcome.

Book excerpt: FORBES #1 CAREER BOOK TO READ IN 2018 The larger-than-life journey of an 18-year-old college freshman who set out from his dorm room to track down Bill Gates, Lady Gaga, and dozens more of the world’s most successful people to uncover how they broke through and launched their careers. The Third Door takes readers on an unprecedented adventure—from hacking Warren Buffett’s shareholders meeting to chasing Larry King through a grocery store to celebrating in a nightclub with Lady Gaga—as Alex Banayan travels from icon to icon, decoding their success. After remarkable one-on-one interviews with Bill Gates, Maya Angelou, Steve Wozniak, Jane Goodall, Larry King, Jessica Alba, Pitbull, Tim Ferriss, Quincy Jones, and many more, Alex discovered the one key they have in common: they all took the Third Door. Life, business, success… it’s just like a nightclub. There are always three ways in. There’s the First Door: the main entrance, where ninety-nine percent of people wait in line, hoping to get in. The Second Door: the VIP entrance, where the billionaires and celebrities slip through. But what no one tells you is that there is always, always… the Third Door. It’s the entrance where you have to jump out of line, run down the alley, bang on the door a hundred times, climb over the dumpster, crack open the window, sneak through the kitchen—there’s always a way in. Whether it’s how Bill Gates sold his first piece of software or how Steven Spielberg became the youngest studio director in Hollywood history, they all took the Third Door.

Download or read book Pearls of Vedic Wisdom to Succeed written by Arun Kumar and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-13 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The light of knowledge from this book is definitely going to illumine and enlighten the society, nation and the world. This book is a revolutionary step to usher in the golden era of ethics, morals and value-based living. - Dr. Chinmay Pandya, Vice Chancellor, Dev Sanskriti University, Haridwar, Uttarkhand, India. This book provides an insight into the ideas of the ancient Vedic tradition and how they might be applied to contemporary life. An excellent survey, I would certainly recommend it to those eager to consider a spiritual perspective on their life and career. - Dr. Herbert Daly, Senior Lecturer, Maths & Computer Science, University of Wolverhampton, UK. Convincingly explains how to drop the ego and realize the presence of the Sentient Life Energy that is giving us life every moment and also shows us the way to experience this all-important Sentient Life Energy. - Dr. Dillibabu Vijayakumar, Scientist, DRDO, Bangalore, India. Exist as mass of Consciousness. Exist as Sentient Life Energy. Exist as Silent Awareness. For that "Be Silent." "Just Be." The goal of Vedanta can't be expressed in any simpler terms than this. - Dr. Veerappa Gowda, Professor, TIFR Centre for Applicable Mathematics, Bangalore, India. Repeatedly calling the Self or Atman as Life Energy is ingenious. Interpreting 'Chit' of Vedanta as Sentience and calling Atman as Sentient Life Energy is a masterstroke. - Dr. Guru Murthy, Dean, Spartan Health Science University, St Lucia, West Indies. The book is fascinating, reasonable and practical, all at the same time. Both an intellectual challenge and strangely, pleasantly relaxing to read. - Steven Asherman, President & CTO, Content Galaxy Inc. New York City, USA. www.contentgalaxy.com
