Book excerpt: Some people lead because of their position, while others have an innate ability to inspire action regardless of the most adverse conditions. However, a universal disconnect remains - current leadership practices are exclusively focused on how the leader interacts with their people, not the people's ultimate output.A Light in the Darkness supports everyone to both lead and develop at their own pace; harnessing each individual's unique capacity while mitigating ineffective learned behaviors. Rather than a "How To" book, we challenge the reader to usher in a new era of leadership, bespoke in nature.A Light in the Darkness introduces practices that were initially found to work in the life or death situations afforded by 20 years of Military Service. We're excited to find that they work equally well from the boardroom to the classroom. The reader's art becomes adapting them for what you do, who you are, and an uncertain future - ultimately identifying the optimal process for everyone in their constellation.

Download or read book We Have No Idea written by Jorge Cham and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-05-08 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Prepare to learn everything we still don’t know about our strange and mysterious universe Humanity's understanding of the physical world is full of gaps. Not tiny little gaps you can safely ignore —there are huge yawning voids in our basic notions of how the world works. PHD Comics creator Jorge Cham and particle physicist Daniel Whiteson have teamed up to explore everything we don't know about the universe: the enormous holes in our knowledge of the cosmos. Armed with their popular infographics, cartoons, and unusually entertaining and lucid explanations of science, they give us the best answers currently available for a lot of questions that are still perplexing scientists, including: * Why does the universe have a speed limit? * Why aren't we all made of antimatter? * What (or who) is attacking Earth with tiny, superfast particles? * What is dark matter, and why does it keep ignoring us? It turns out the universe is full of weird things that don't make any sense. But Cham and Whiteson make a compelling case that the questions we can't answer are as interesting as the ones we can. This fully illustrated introduction to the biggest mysteries in physics also helpfully demystifies many complicated things we do know about, from quarks and neutrinos to gravitational waves and exploding black holes. With equal doses of humor and delight, Cham and Whiteson invite us to see the universe as a possibly boundless expanse of uncharted territory that's still ours to explore.

Book excerpt: A young psychiatric patient, known as Lili, is having a profound effect on both fellow inmates and medical staff alike. As she begins to unravel the truth of her hospital admittance, she persuades her sceptical psychiatrist, Katherine Kolinsky, to begin a search for Truth in her own self. Thousands of miles away in eastern Canada a young fisherman, Averi, is about to be capsized, both in the sea and in the heart. At first troubled and resistant, Averi surrenders at last to the inner journey, coming to see through the loving guidance of his friend and confidante, Nyx, the Reality of his own existence. As Truth unfolds and falsity is wiped clean, so it becomes clear that Averi and Lili are not separate, that the former lives in the mind of the latter, an alter ego and a signpost to Self-recognition. It shall take the delicate unpicking of a densely woven tapestry to cut through the layers of 'psychosis' and delusion. Only then shall Katherine the psychiatrist be convinced that 'madness' is not all as it seems.

Download or read book The Unknown written by Vence Delyane Barnett and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-05-10 with total page 103 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The unknown book is formulated on fictional events that can or may have taken place in maybe your life or someone close to you. Not in as much as an actual event that has taken place in the reality of this life but in a reality of a life that we have no awareness of. But we create our own realities in our own minds based off what we choose to be, real and unreal. A lot of these choices that we make are based off fear, doubt, and a nonexistent understanding, which allows our narcissism to peak overwhelmingly, thereby leaving us with a naked, skeletonized truth of who we really are, therefore leading us into the place in which I like to call the Unknown.

Download or read book Luminous Darkness written by Deborah Eden Tull and published by Shambhala Publications. This book was released on 2022-09-27 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A resonant call to explore the darkness in life, in nature, and in consciousness—including difficult emotions like uncertainty, grief, fear, and xenophobia—through teachings, embodied meditations, and mindful inquiry that provide us with a powerful path to healing. Darkness is deeply misunderstood in today’s world; yet it offers powerful medicine, serenity, strength, healing, and regeneration. All insight, vision, creativity, and revelation arise from darkness. It is through learning to stay present and meet the dark with curiosity rather than judgment that we connect to an unwavering light within. Welcoming darkness with curiosity, rather than fear or judgment, enables us to access our innate capacity for compassion and collective healing. Dharma teacher, shamanic practitioner, and deep ecologist Deborah Eden Tull addresses the spiritual, ecological, psychological, and interpersonal ramifications of our bias towards light. Tull explores the medicine of darkness for personal and collective healing, through topics such as: Befriending the Night: The Radiant Teachings of Darkness Honoring Our Pain for Our World Seeing in the Dark: The Quiet Power of Receptivity Dreams, Possibility, and Moral Imagination Releasing Fear—Embracing Emergence Tull shows us how the labeling of darkness as “negative” becomes a collective excuse to justify avoiding everything that makes us uncomfortable: racism, spiritual bypass, environmental destruction. We can only find the radical path to wholeness by learning to embrace the interplay of both darkness and light.

Download or read book The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible written by Charles Eisenstein and published by North Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2013-11-05 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As seen on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday A beacon of hope in the face of our current world crises, this uplifting book demonstrates how embracing our interconnectedness is key to world transformation In a time of social and ecological crisis, what can we as individuals do to make the world a better place? This inspirational and thought-provoking book serves as an empowering antidote to the cynicism, frustration, paralysis, and overwhelm so many of us are feeling, replacing it with a grounding reminder of what’s true: we are all connected, and our small, personal choices bear unsuspected transformational power. By fully embracing and practicing this principle of interconnectedness—called interbeing—we become more effective agents of change and have a stronger positive influence on the world. Throughout the book, Eisenstein relates real-life stories showing how small, individual acts of courage, kindness, and self-trust can change our culture’s guiding narrative of separation, which, he shows, has generated the present planetary crisis. He brings to conscious awareness a deep wisdom we all innately know: until we get ourselves in order, any action we take—no matter how good our intentions—will ultimately be wrong-headed and wrong-hearted. Above all, Eisenstein invites us to embrace a radically different understanding of cause and effect, sounding a clarion call to surrender our old worldview of separation, so that we can finally create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible. With chapters covering separation, interbeing, despair, hope, pain, pleasure, consciousness, and many more, the book invites us to let the old Story of Separation fall away so that we can stand firmly in a Story of Interbeing.

Download or read book The Unknown Disciple written by Michael L. King and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-08-30 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to walk and talk with the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ? This book, "The Unknown Disciple," leads you on a a journey to the manger where Jesus lay as a new born babe, and then follows the life of one of the unknown shepherds as he comes to the know the Savior throughout his life. Taken from the pages of the King James New Testament, this book uses the actual events and words of Jesus Christ to create a historical fiction that places the reader in some of the most memorable events from the lives of those who traveled with Jesus during his ministry. Wound tightly into the stories are principles of faith, hope, love, and service that lift the reader to an understanding of the Lord's gospel from an intimate personal perspective. As one reads the accounts taken from actual events that occurred in the New Testament, one is enveloped in the Spirit of God as one sees and feels as those who walked among him must have felt as they witnessed the healings and the miracles of Jesus. You will feel what it was like to walk upon the water, eat of the bread he offered to the 5,000 and feel the heartache and tragedy of Gethsemane and Golgotha. More than anything, you will feel the infinite love of the Savior for each of his disciples. You will experience the joy of his glorious resurrection and gain a stronger witness that Jesus is the very Christ, the Son of God, and Savior of the world.

Download or read book Where Light in Darkness Lies written by Veronica della Dora and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illuminating history of both real-life lighthouses and the beacons of literature and art alike, shedding light on the multifaceted power of these liminal structures. Suspended between sea and sky, battered by the waves and the wind, lighthouses mark the battle lines between the elements. They guard the boundaries between the solid human world and the primordial chaos of the waters; between stability and instability; between the known and the unknown. As such, they have a strange, universal appeal that few other manmade structures possess. Engineered to draw the gaze of sailors, lighthouses have likewise long attracted the attention of soldiers and saints, artists and poets, novelists and filmmakers, colonizers and migrants, and, today more than ever, heritage tourists and developers. Their evocative locations, isolation, and resilience, have turned these structures into complex metaphors, magnets for stories. This book explores the rich story of the lighthouse in the human imagination.

Download or read book The Unknown History of Jewish Women Through the Ages written by Rachel Elior and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2023-05-22 with total page 974 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unknown History of Jewish Women—On Learning and Illiteracy: On Slavery and Liberty is a comprehensive study on the history of Jewish women, which discusses their absence from the Jewish Hebrew library of the "People of the Book" and interprets their social condition in relation to their imposed ignorance and exclusion from public literacy. The book begins with a chapter on communal education for Jewish boys, which was compulsory and free of charge for the first ten years in all traditional Jewish communities. The discussion continues with the striking absence of any communal Jewish education for girls until the late nineteenth and early twentieth century, and the implications of this fact for twentieth-century immigration to Israel (1949-1959) The following chapters discuss the social, cultural and legal contexts of this reality of female illiteracy in the Jewish community—a community that placed a supreme value on male education. The discussion focuses on the patriarchal order and the postulations, rules, norms, sanctions and mythologies that, in antiquity and the Middle Ages, laid the religious foundations of this discriminatory reality.
