Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As human beings we are often plagued by worries about the future and are unsure of our place in the world. Young and old, we worry about being able to reclaim our destiny. Some of us teeter in indecision, while others are completely unsure of what steps to take and in which direction. In our search for our place in this world, we often have questions: - Why do I excel at job A and not job B? - I just graduated from college. What do I do now? - What type of environment would give me the highest quality of life for my personality? Astrology is the most targeted, layered, and accurate self-help system in existence today. However Self- Help and Astrology are typically considered two different worlds of thought. The two resources have not been married...until now. The Road from Space: How to find yourself in the 21st century is an astrology self-help book with practical application. I will help to address the above questions... ...and much much more
Download or read book Life on Mars written by Tracy K. Smith and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize * Poet Laureate of the United States * * A New York Times Notable Book of 2011 and New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice * * A New Yorker, Library Journal and Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year * New poetry by the award-winning poet Tracy K. Smith, whose "lyric brilliance and political impulses never falter" (Publishers Weekly, starred review) You lie there kicking like a baby, waiting for God himself To lift you past the rungs of your crib. What Would your life say if it could talk? —from "No Fly Zone" With allusions to David Bowie and interplanetary travel, Life on Mars imagines a soundtrack for the universe to accompany the discoveries, failures, and oddities of human existence. In these brilliant new poems, Tracy K. Smith envisions a sci-fi future sucked clean of any real dangers, contemplates the dark matter that keeps people both close and distant, and revisits the kitschy concepts like "love" and "illness" now relegated to the Museum of Obsolescence. These poems reveal the realities of life lived here, on the ground, where a daughter is imprisoned in the basement by her own father, where celebrities and pop stars walk among us, and where the poet herself loses her father, one of the engineers who worked on the Hubble Space Telescope. With this remarkable third collection, Smith establishes herself among the best poets of her generation.
Download or read book How to Be an Anticapitalist in the Twenty First Century written by Erik Olin Wright and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2021-04-13 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is wrong with capitalism, and how can we change it? Capitalism has transformed the world and increased our productivity, but at the cost of enormous human suffering.

Erik Olin Wright has distilled decades of work into this concise and tightly argued manifesto: analyzing the varieties of anticapitalism, assessing different strategic approaches, and laying the foundations for a society dedicated to human flourishing. How to Be an Anticapitalist in the Twenty-First Century is an urgent and powerful argument for socialism, and an unparalleled guide to help us get there. Another world is possible. Included is an afterword by the author’s close friend and collaborator Michael Burawoy.

Download or read book Journey Into Intentionality Of A Woman written by Santosh Jha and published by Santosh Jha. This book was released on 2022-07-11 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond biology, morphology; epistemology of form, firmament; ontology of typology; there is a landscape, of probabilities of self; a novel and alternative intentionality. Is that you? There are dimensionalities, on the other side of populism of feminine frontiers and individuality of womanhood. Step in to probe the pandemic of pathologies of perceptions in scammed cultures. Say hello to a new you. Labeling, objectification, insinuations of inferiority and subjugation; as a woman, you faced them all. You’ve been made to believe ‘realities’ about your personhood, against your discretion. You felt conflicted, consternated, even violated handling ‘dualism’ of your womanhood? Dump them; journey your true realities, potentials, as a woman, human with 21st century Science of Self & Intentionality. Since the inception of civilization, humanity has strived to unravel the mysteries of Self or ‘I’ but their journey could not be fruitful as only 21st century modern science has now deciphered the deep and complex mechanism-processes of Intentionality. For a woman; this journey into her true and real Intentionality is the core-critical knowledge she must have as since ages; she has been told and made to accept her own Self and Intentionality, explained and imposed on her, without her own personal and subjective experiences and knowledge. It is almost like you accepting your own face and persona, which a distorted and scammed mirror shows you. Objective, logical and singularly explainable science of Reality, especially the human realities have shown the doors to all hypocritical and stupid perceptional beliefs about almost every aspect of life-living, which humanity has held true since ages. Contemporary scientific knowledge of realities tell us that the Intentionality of your Self or ‘I’; as it stands in perpetuity of interactional loop with that of all Others; may not always be restricted and smothered to this Form-Finality of populist and culturally benchmarked Gender identities and realities, which are assigned to forms. The Reality is too colossal and its causalities are too massively complex to enslave it to and chain it with peripheral element of male-female situation. The Consciousness, cognition, causalities and the Intentionality, which pervades them, are too multidimensional to be restricted to populist gender-validities. This ‘I’ is a huge landscape. The consciousness, this feel and finality of ‘Me’, the subjective self, is a universe in itself. Why? Simply because ‘I’ and Consciousness is probabilistic! The Intentionality is probabilistic. The morphology, the body-mind causalities, the form-finality are only a miniscule aspect of the vastly stretched reality of ‘I’. They are only a ‘context’ and ‘specificity’ for certain causalities and there are infinite contexts for expansive realities. The experiences, feelings, perceptions, purposes, the will, expressions, learning et al are massive landscapes, all constantly and endlessly evolving within ‘I’ in entire lifetime. These landscapes of ‘I’ are interacting with infinite causalities and gender morphology is only a small ‘context’ of these massive interactions. Modern science has added magic into the process of understanding the Self or ‘I’ and its Intentionality. The Intentionality now has scientific basis. Not only human mechanisms and processes; rather, everything about Reality, is now available for completely novel, deeper and holistic understanding and internalization. Many Walls, between You and Me, which hindered and vitiated mutual understanding, now stands crumbled, thanks to the objective knowledge contemporary science has extended to us. ‘I’ can now journey better and deeper into the landscape of ‘your’ Consciousness, as pathways are clearer; broader. I can now journey into your Intentionality, which even ‘You’ may not have ever thought is You and inside You. Knowledge is the cure of all pathologies. Enter the landscape of scientific knowledge, wellness and true empowerment.

Download or read book Krishna s Playground written by John Stratton Hawley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-11-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about a deeply beloved place—many call it the spiritual capital of India. Located at a dramatic bend in the River Yamuna, a hundred miles from the center of Delhi, Vrindavan is the spot where the god Krishna is believed to have spent his childhood and youth. For Hindus it has always stood for youth writ large—a realm of love and beauty that enables one to retreat from the weight and harshness of the world. Now, though, the world is gobbling up Vrindavan. Delhi’s megalopolitan sprawl inches closer day by day—half the town is a vast real-estate development—and the waters of the Yamuna are too polluted to drink or even bathe in. Temples now style themselves as theme parks, and the world’s tallest religious building is under construction in Krishna’s pastoral paradise. What happens when the Anthropocene Age makes everything virtual? What happens when heaven gets plowed under? Like our age as a whole, Vrindavan throbs with feisty energy, but is it the religious canary in our collective coal mine?
