Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you want to make your home a more sacred space than any church or temple? Do you want to bring more meaning, gratitude and happiness to your life and relationships? Do you identify as "spiritual but not religious" and wish to incorporate ancient faith-based rituals and symbols into your life without compromising your modern reason or values? If so, the The New Vesta Secret is for you.In The New Vesta Secret, Debra May Macleod shares the story of her meeting with an extraordinary woman with an even more extraordinary secret. The last steward of a forgotten religious artefact, this woman passed down to Debra the knowledge and flame of a spirituality that had for centuries illuminated the lives of millions of women, until it was banished during the rise of Christianity. But before she could reignite this spirituality, Debra – a sworn atheist – would have to journey through some dark places: a near-death experience, a career crisis, a struggling marriage and unfulfilling family life, debilitating negativity and finally her own reluctant realization that spiritual belief is a strength, not a weakness. Part spiritual journey and part practical inspiration, The New Vesta Secret is a book about a beloved tradition forced to hide in the shadows for fifteen hundred years, waiting for the time that it could once again renew the spirits and re-inspire the lives of women around the world. But more than that, it is a treatise on happiness, a poignant and sometimes whimsical story about the secret to life itself.Read with: THE NEW VESTA HOME: HOW A RENEWED TRADITION CAN KEEP YOUR MARRIAGE & FAMILY TOGETHER

Download or read book Hidden Lives Public Personae written by Emily Hemelrijk and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-01 with total page 649 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roman cities have rarely been studied from the perspective of women, and studies of Roman women mainly focus on the city of Rome. Studying the civic participation of women in the towns of Italy outside Rome and in the numerous cities of the Latin-speaking provinces of the Roman Empire, this books offers a new view on Roman women and urban society in the Roman Principate. Drawing on epigraphy and archaeology, and to a lesser extent on legal and literary texts, women's civic roles as priestesses, benefactresses and patronesses or 'mothers' of cities and associations (collegia and the Augustales) are brought to the fore. In contrast to the city of Rome, which was dominated by the imperial family, wealthy women in the local Italian and provincial towns had ample opportunity to leave their mark on the city. Their motives to spend their money, time and energy for the benefit of their cities and the rewards their contributions earned them take centre stage. Assessing the meaning and significance of their contributions for themselves and their families and for the cities that enjoyed them, the book presents a new and detailed view of the role of women and gender in Roman urban life.

Download or read book The Secret American Destiny written by Nicholas Hagger and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this final work of his American trilogy, Nicholas Hagger focuses on the unified World State it is America's secret destiny to create, and on the world's divided culture that impedes its creation. Throughout world culture there are conflicting and entrenched metaphysical and secular approaches that permeate all its main disciplines, including history, philosophy and science, literature and comparative religion. In each discipline there is a tussle between the traditional religious view, which is supported by the 4.6 billion of the world's 7.3 billion population that follow a religion, and the secular and social approach associated with humanism and the scientific reductionism of Hawking and Dawkins, which sees the universe as a random accident. Hagger argues that it is America's secret destiny to bring in a democratic, UN-based, partly federal World State that can unify humankind. The conflict between metaphysical and secular approaches can be healed within a new reconciling philosophy that unites both outlooks, Universalism, which is already making an impact in the US. The key to this reconciliation is focusing on the scientific view of the order in the universe, and on the experience of the common essence which resides in all religions (the belief in the ordering Light), and on the traditional view of order in the seven disciplines of world culture. This reconciliation can reunify each discipline and therefore world culture, and create world unity. Restoring the metaphysical vision of order in world culture can strengthen Americ's harmonizing of humankind within a World State based on political Universalism.
