Consciousness Science

The Greek philosopher Socrates once asked his student Phaedrus: "Where have you come from and where are you going?" These two simple questions are at the heart of "real" Greek philosophy. We all want to know where the universe came from, and what is our place in it. We also want to choose the best, most fulfilling and happiest life for ourselves in the years ahead.

Grandes líderes, pensadores, artistas, atletas e visionários têm uma característica em comum: a capacidade de alcançar a quietude. Cínicos às vezes a confundem com ociosidade e indecisão, mas a verdade é que a quietude é a chave para ter autodomínio, disciplina e foco. É impossível avançar na vida sem ela. A quietude ajuda as pessoas a controlar impulsos, evitar distrações e ter grandes ideias. Sobretudo, permite que encontrem a felicidade e façam a coisa certa.

A Pagan Polemic curates the evolving perspective of Jack Loeffler—itinerant wanderer, environmental warrior, storyteller, and story collector—whose true education began when he was marched into the Nevada desert one day at dawn to play "The Stars and Stripes Forever" during an atomic bomb test a scant few miles away. Since that day in 1957, Jack's mission in life has been to record peoples of the borderlands and to bring "indigenous mindedness" to the forefront of the conversation about our precarious environments and our decaying planet.

Para expresarme en Twitter bajo el lema ¡Re-evolución poética, la Conciencia al poder!, al contrario de quienes utilizan este medio para hablar de ellos mismos, me prometí entrar en el terreno de lo impersonal, hablando sólo de temas exentos del aroma a ombligo que se desprende de tantos tweets. La tarea se convirtió en un juego enriquecedor: cualquier pensamiento tenía que ser condensado en una frase de 140 caracteres como máximo. A las frases, por su implacable impersonalidad, las llamé metaforismos.

¿Cómo hago de la meditación parte de mi vida cotidiana? Cuando la mente y los pensamientos desaparecen, te vuelves consciente. ¿Qué es atención plena? Es la consciencia. Osho explora los obstáculos internos y externos que impiden llevar más consciencia a todas nuestras actividades diarias. Él enfatiza que, si bien las técnicas pueden ser útiles para señalar el camino, en sí mismas no son meditación. Por el contrario, la meditación es, en última instancia, un estado del ser en el que somos capaces tanto de acción como de quietud.

Una volta cadute dall'Iperuranio dove le aveva poste Platone e svestite del carattere di Verità, le idee sono entrate nella storia, hanno assunto un significato nella tradizione e nel tempo, sono diventate episodiche e discontinue, rinviano di continuo ad altro, non sono più una faccenda di puro intelletto, muovono le emozioni e svolgono un'azione seduttiva, sono oggetto del pregiudizio di ciascuno ma sono in grado anche di erodere, corrompere e modificare il pensiero tramite la loro comunicazione.

If you are feeling unheard in life or are constantly being told that you are not being listened to by those around you, if you find that you are unable to or have stopped listening to yourself, listen to this audiobook, Be Heard to Be Rich. Be heard or die - how can being heard save lives? This is the point at which from great overwhelm can come great change for many people. Change may be necessary when you decide that good is not good enough, and the status quo is not the path or the blueprint for your future.

Modern thought tends to divide life into categories, but in the process of living, all the currents mix and mingle, and worthwhile answers only come from finding a harmonious relation to the whole. Seeking holistic understanding, this book ranges through psychology, art, science, religion, relationships, culture, mythology, philosophy, and the world’s wisdom traditions. Although no one can be expert in all these areas, the living of life does not offer the choice of avoiding any of them.

Thinkers everywhere are conscious of two things, first, that the region of mystery has never before been so clearly defined, and secondly, that that region can be entered more easily than has hitherto been the case; it may, therefore, perhaps be induced to render up some of its secrets if investigators of all schools pursue their search with determination.

"Das Bewusstsein, die einzige Realität" von Neville Goddard ist eines seiner tiefgründigsten Werke und offenbart die zentrale Wahrheit seines gesamten Lehrsystems: Alles, was wir im Außen erleben, ist ein Spiegel unseres inneren Bewusstseinszustands. Neville zeigt auf, dass nicht äußere Umstände unser Leben formen, sondern allein unsere Überzeugungen, Gedanken und inneren Annahmen. Wir sind nicht passive Beobachter der Welt – wir sind ihre Schöpfer. In klaren und eindringlichen Worten erklärt er, dass Bewusstsein die einzige Realität ist.

Far more than a mere history of the practice of yoga and beyond a study of psychedelic-substance use to aid the pursuit of enlightenment, Who Am I? is a broad, expansive journey told through the eyes of a scholar and researcher - a pilgrim in search of the meaning of life.

Während der Jahre des Ersten Weltkrieges widmete sich Steiner intensiv der Verteidigung seiner anthroposophischen Geisteswissenschaft gegen zeitgenössische Kritiker. Die Schrift ›Von Seelenrätseln‹ von 1917 ist Ausdruck dieser Bemühungen. Steiner legt darin Wert darauf, die Anthroposophie methodisch klarer zu fassen als in früheren Texten und deren Forschungsansatz methodisch gegenüber dem naturwissenschaftlichen Paradigma zu verorten.

The real value of money is not to buy more things, it’s to “buy” more time to spend with people and on activities we cherish most. Time is the most used word in the English language, its meaning so obvious, until we try to explain it. By listening to this book, you will learn how science has revealed the true nature of time, how to understand it, value it, and experience more of it.

The Problems of Philosophy is a 1912 book by Bertrand Russell, in which the author attempts to create a brief and accessible guide to the problems of philosophy. Focusing on problems he believes will provoke positive and constructive discussion, Russell concentrates on knowledge rather than metaphysics: If it is uncertain that external objects exist, how can we then have knowledge of them but by probability.
