Download or read book Thoughts from the Cosmic Field in the Life of a Thinking Insect A Latter Day Saint written by Haresh Patel and published by Strategic Book Publishing. This book was released on 2009-03 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Haresh loves his mother Pushpa intensely. As a seven year old girl, she garlanded Gandhi at Bhadran, while he was on his famous Dandi March in 1930. Haresh was born in Bhadran in l943, prior to India's Partition. As his Hindu grandfather was a hypocrite, belonging to a Demonic Cult, Haresh started his spiritual journey at 12, after having read Gandhi's autobiography, "My Experiments with Truth." It ignited his consciousness and led him to be a jurist. He studied most of the scriptures of people and philosophy. But, being truthful, he could not succeed in a corrupt society. During the emergency days of 1975, Haresh actively participated with George Fernandese in the underground activities of the 'Baroda Dynamite Conspiracy.' In 1980, Sri Aurobindo's invisible presence initiated Haresh in the occult world of 'Savitri.' In 1982, Sri Shankar Giri, his Spiritual Master, initiated him into the mysterious occult science of Atharvana. Haresh was led to an LDS Church in Chicago, wherein he was baptized and ordained into Aaronic Priesthood. He was also gifted with the 'Holy Ghost'. On October, 22, 1994 of the same year he was mysteriously transformed into Christ Consciousness. At the insistence of Elder James Maddux, he has recorded his Epistolary Autobiography from 1994 up to 2008. Gandhi experimented with Truth all his life. He never experienced it. Unlike Gandhi, Haresh has not only experienced Truth, he lives it from moment to moment, in accordance with inner promptings from 'Holy Ghost.' This book is a story of Haresh, who is He Himself.

Leave the World Behind explores how our closest bonds are reshaped—and unexpected new ones are forged—in moments of crisis. Amanda and Clay head out to a remote corner of Long Island expecting a vacation: a quiet reprieve from life in New York City, quality time with their teenage son and daughter, and a taste of the good life in the luxurious home they’ve rented for the week. But a late-night knock on the door breaks the spell. Ruth and G. H. are an older couple—it’s their house, and they’ve arrived in a panic. They bring the news that a sudden blackout has swept the city. But in this rural area—with the TV and internet now down, and no cell phone service—it’s hard to know what to believe. Should Amanda and Clay trust this couple—and vice versa? What happened back in New York? Is the vacation home, isolated from civilization, a truly safe place for their families? And are they safe from one other?

Download or read book Cosmic Consciousness written by Ali Nomad and published by . This book was released on 2012-12-19 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Man is essentially a spiritual being. The source of this spiritual Omniscience we may not, in our finite intelligence, fully cognize, because full cognition would preclude the possibility of finite expression. The destiny of man is perfection. Man perfected becomes a god. Mortality is the manifest--the stage upon which "man in his life plays many parts." Immortality, is what the word says it is--godhood re-cognized in the mortal. "Im" or, "Om"--the more general term--stands for the Changeless. Birthless. Deathless. Unnamable Power that holds the worlds in space, and puts intelligence into man. Always there must remain the Unknownable--the Absolute. "Om," therefore, is the word we use to express this Omniscient, Omnipotent and Omnipresent power.The object of this book is to call attention to some of the more pronounced instances of cosmic Illumination, and to classify them, according as they have been expressed through religions enthusiasm; poetical fervor; or great intellectual power. But we have also one other argument to make, and this we present with a conviction of its truth, while conceding that it must remain a theory, until proven, each individual, man or woman, for himself and herself. The postulate is this: immortality (i.e. godhood) is bi-sexual. No male person can by any possibility become an immortal god, in, of and by himself; no female person can be complete without the "other half" that makes the ONE. Each and every SOUL, therefore, has its spiritual counterpart--its "other half," with which it unites on the spiritual plane, when the time comes for attainment of immortality.Sex is an eternal verity. The entire Cosmos is bi-sexual. Everything in the visible universe; in the manifest, is the result of this universal principle.Some of the topics covered in this life changing treatise: The New Birth; Man's Relation to God and to His Fellow Men; Areas of Consciousness; Self-Ness and Selflessness; Instances of Illumination and its After Effects; Examples of Cosmic Consciousness, Who Have Founded New Systems of Religion; Moses; Gautama; Jesus; Paul; Mohammed; Swedenborg; Modern Examples; Illumination as Expressed in the Poetical Temperament; methods of Attainment. This is a special book that touches on many different levels.

Download or read book Our Cosmic Habitat written by Martin Rees and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2017-11-21 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our universe seems strangely ''biophilic,'' or hospitable to life. Is this happenstance, providence, or coincidence? According to cosmologist Martin Rees, the answer depends on the answer to another question, the one posed by Einstein's famous remark: ''What interests me most is whether God could have made the world differently.'' This highly engaging book explores the fascinating consequences of the answer being ''yes.'' Rees explores the notion that our universe is just a part of a vast ''multiverse,'' or ensemble of universes, in which most of the other universes are lifeless. What we call the laws of nature would then be no more than local bylaws, imposed in the aftermath of our own Big Bang. In this scenario, our cosmic habitat would be a special, possibly unique universe where the prevailing laws of physics allowed life to emerge. Rees begins by exploring the nature of our solar system and examining a range of related issues such as whether our universe is or isn't infinite. He asks, for example: How likely is life? How credible is the Big Bang theory? Rees then peers into the long-range cosmic future before tracing the causal chain backward to the beginning. He concludes by trying to untangle the paradoxical notion that our entire universe, stretching 10 billion light-years in all directions, emerged from an infinitesimal speck. As Rees argues, we may already have intimations of other universes. But the fate of the multiverse concept depends on the still-unknown bedrock nature of space and time on scales a trillion trillion times smaller than atoms, in the realm governed by the quantum physics of gravity. Expanding our comprehension of the cosmos, Our Cosmic Habitat will be read and enjoyed by all those--scientists and nonscientists alike--who are as fascinated by the universe we inhabit as is the author himself.

Download or read book Callings written by Gregg Michael Levoy and published by Harmony. This book was released on 1998-09-08 with total page 349 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we know if we're following our true callings? How do we sharpen our senses to cut through the distractions of everyday reality and hear the calls that are beckoning us? is the first book to examine the many kinds of calls we receive and the great variety of channels through which they come to us. A calling may be to do something (change careers, go back to school, have a child) or to be something (more creative, less judgmental, more loving). While honoring a calling's essential mystery, this book also guides readers to ask and answer the fundamental questions that arise from any calling: How do we recognize it? How do we distinguish the true call from the siren song? How do we handle our resistance to a call? What happens when we say yes? What happens when we say no? Drawing on the hard-won wisdom and powerful stories of people who have followed their own calls, Gregg Levoy shows us the many ways to translate a calling into action. In a style that is poetic, exuberant, and keenly insightful, he presents an illuminating and ultimately practical inquiry into how we listen and respond to our calls, whether at work or at home, in our relationships or in service. Callings is a compassionate guide to discovering your own callings and negotiating the tight passages to personal power and authenticity.

Download or read book Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha written by Daniel Ingram and published by Aeon Books. This book was released on 2020-01-20 with total page 715 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The very idea that the teachings can be mastered will arouse controversy within Buddhist circles. Even so, Ingram insists that enlightenment is an attainable goal, once our fanciful notions of it are stripped away, and we have learned to use meditation as a method for examining reality rather than an opportunity to wallow in self-absorbed mind-noise. Ingram sets out concisely the difference between concentration-based and insight (vipassana) meditation; he provides example practices; and most importantly he presents detailed maps of the states of mind we are likely to encounter, and the stages we must negotiate as we move through clearly-defined cycles of insight. Its easy to feel overawed, at first, by Ingram's assurance and ease in the higher levels of consciousness, but consistently he writes as a down-to-earth and compassionate guide, and to the practitioner willing to commit themselves this is a glittering gift of a book.In this new edition of the bestselling book, the author rearranges, revises and expands upon the original material, as well as adding new sections that bring further clarity to his ideas.

Download or read book Blindsight written by Peter Watts and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2006-10-03 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hugo and Shirley Jackson award-winning Peter Watts stands on the cutting edge of hard SF with his acclaimed novel, Blindsight Two months since the stars fell... Two months of silence, while a world held its breath. Now some half-derelict space probe, sparking fitfully past Neptune's orbit, hears a whisper from the edge of the solar system: a faint signal sweeping the cosmos like a lighthouse beam. Whatever's out there isn't talking to us. It's talking to some distant star, perhaps. Or perhaps to something closer, something en route. So who do you send to force introductions with unknown and unknowable alien intellect that doesn't wish to be met? You send a linguist with multiple personalities, her brain surgically partitioned into separate, sentient processing cores. You send a biologist so radically interfaced with machinery that he sees x-rays and tastes ultrasound. You send a pacifist warrior in the faint hope she won't be needed. You send a monster to command them all, an extinct hominid predator once called vampire, recalled from the grave with the voodoo of recombinant genetics and the blood of sociopaths. And you send a synthesist—an informational topologist with half his mind gone—as an interface between here and there. Pray they can be trusted with the fate of a world. They may be more alien than the thing they've been sent to find. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
