Book What If God Were My Analyst

Download or read book What If God Were My Analyst written by Stephen Tsousis and published by DoctorZed Publishing. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set against the current background of global climate disorder and breakdown, What if God were my Analyst? is a non fiction stream of consciousness where the Author as "client" enters into a therapeutic conversation of analysis with God. The book covers some of the World's most pressing issues through exploring some deep truths, taking the reader on a journey into Self and drawing upon myth, metaphysics, history, religion, psychology, politics, economics and ecology. What if God were my Analyst? is a confronting work. At times dark, sarcastic and black humoured while always challenging the rigid Fundamentalist's point of view. The hope offered in this writing calls for a timely coming together of people of goodwill throughout the World. Those who no longer want to be ruled by the corrupt who rob us of our true democratic freedoms, rights, values and spiritualities. What if God were my Analyst? is a polemic for all who have had enough and demand real responses during our time when the need for authentic and just change is roaring loudly from the four corners of the Earth- our common home. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: STEPHEN L. TSOUSIS was born in 1955. He has had a varied career as a high school teacher, youth worker, tutor, photographer, natural therapist, army officer and lecturer in psychotherapy. He is currently a practising counsellor and psychotherapist while also working as a part-time carer in mental health. He is a professional member of the Australian Counselling Association and secretary of the Hunter Region's local ACA chapter. He has spent almost thirty years studying, writing and applying psychologies, philosophies, comparative religions and metaphysics to help him make sense of his life. His primary adage is to Know Thyself, believing that the last frontier and the least well known is the inner world of a greater consciousness. What if God were my Analyst? is his first published book and he hopes to write at least two more. He is married and currently living in Sydney.

Book Gluttony

    Book Details:
  • Author : Francine Prose
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2003-11-06
  • ISBN : 0190288949
  • Pages : 128 pages

Download or read book Gluttony written by Francine Prose and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-06 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In America, notes acclaimed novelist Francine Prose, we are obsessed with food and diet. And what is this obsession with food except a struggle between sin and virtue, overeating and self-control--a struggle with the fierce temptations of gluttony. In Gluttony, Francine Prose serves up a marvelous banquet of witty and engaging observations on this most delicious of deadly sins. She traces how our notions of gluttony have evolved along with our ideas about salvation and damnation, health and illness, life and death. Offering a lively smorgasbord that ranges from Augustine's Confessions and Chaucer's Pardoner's Tale, to Petronius's Satyricon and Dante's Inferno, she shows that gluttony was in medieval times a deeply spiritual matter, but today we have transformed gluttony from a sin into an illness--it is the horrors of cholesterol and the perils of red meat that we demonize. Indeed, the modern take on gluttony is that we overeat out of compulsion, self-destructiveness, or to avoid intimacy and social contact. But gluttony, Prose reminds us, is also an affirmation of pleasure and of passion. She ends the book with a discussion of M.F.K. Fisher's idiosyncratic defense of one of the great heroes of gluttony, Diamond Jim Brady, whose stomach was six times normal size. "The broad, shiny face of the glutton," Prose writes, "has been--and continues to be--the mirror in which we see ourselves, our hopes and fears, our darkest dreams and deepest desires." Never have we delved more deeply into this mirror than in this insightful and stimulating book.

Book The Letters of Barsanuphius and John

Download or read book The Letters of Barsanuphius and John written by John Chryssavgis and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2022-06-02 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Revealing unexpected truths about early desert spirituality, this volume argues that the lives of Barsanuphius and John relate closely to contemporary urban communities and how clergy tackle social challenges. The early Desert Fathers and Mothers have exercised a particular charm and appeal in recent years, but they have often been portrayed as inaccessible and eccentric figures in the history of monastic spirituality. John Chryssavgis argues that the elders have an unusual capacity to reach into the depths of the heart to reveal the extraordinary in the very ordinary, and that the correspondence between Barsanuphius and John offers an unparalleled glimpse into the sixth-century religious, political, and secular world. It opens with an exploration into the historical context of Palestinian monasticism, followed by an evaluation of the fundamental principles and practices of Barsanuphius and John.

Book excerpt: A group of pilgrims bound for Canterbury Cathedral agree to pass the weary miles by taking turns at storytelling — thus begins English literature's greatest collection of chivalric romances, bawdy tales, fables, legends, and other stories. The 14th-century pilgrims represent a range of philosophies, professions, and temperaments, and their vivid, realistic characterizations assured the Tales an instant and enduring success. Each pilgrim's story can be read separately and appreciated in its own right; all appear here in a lucid translation into modern English verse by J. U. Nicholson.
