Consciousness Science

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.

Een praktische gids met de ideeën van de beroemde filosoof Friedrich Nietzsche als leidraad voor een intenser en creatiever leven. Met Nietzsche aan de keukentafel leert je met andere ogen kijken naar jezelf en de wereld om je heen. Aan de hand van praktische vragen en oefeningen word je uitgedaagd je opvattingen kritisch te bevragen en eerlijk te kijken naar wat jij belangrijk vindt. Hoe blijf je jezelf in een groep? Hoe vind je je sterke kanten en valkuilen? En bovenal: hoe geef jij betekenis aan een in wezen doelloos bestaan? Friedrich Nietzsche omschreef zichzelf als een nihilist.

We live in a world defined by duality, yet our true essence remains nondual. "Being in the world, but not of the world" encapsulates this profound truth. This Glorious Dance invites you into a nondualistic and paradoxical exploration of life, challenging conventional views of existence with piercing insights and whimsical musings.

In this book, Aaron Simmons takes us on a trip to the mountains to reflect on the meaning of life. In a world too often defined by a quest for “success” that leaves us empty, alone, and anxious, Simmons seeks “faithfulness“ outdoors with thinkers and artists from Aristotle to Kierkegaard, Sartre to Anne Lamott, and Kendrick Lamar to Donovan Woods. Simmons invites us to rethink what it means to make choices, take risks, be alone and silent while cultivating friendships, and to find our calling by facing our vulnerability.

Secondo Osho «Il silenzio è la meditazione per eccellenza, ed è la base di qualsiasi esperienzareligiosa. Ma in cosa consiste? Potresti crearlo, potresti coltivarlo, potresti importelo... ma così rimane qualcosa di superficiale, di falso, una finzione. Potresti farne una pratica, in quel casoinizierai a percepirlo e a sperimentarlo; ma proprio il tuo farne un esercizio, lo renderà una sorta di autoipnosi. Quello non è il vero silenzio. Il silenzio vero affiora solo quando la tua mente si dissolve, non a causa di un qualsiasi sforzo, magrazie a una comprensione.

“La musica è meditazione: meditazione cristallizzata in una particolare dimensione. La meditazione è musica: musica che si dissolve nell’assenza di dimensioni. Ami la musica perché intorno ad essa senti accadere la meditazione. Ne sei assorbito, inebriato. Qualcosa dell’ignoto inizia a discendere in te. Il tuo cuore batte a un ritmo diverso: sei in sintonia con l’universo. All’improvviso sei immerso in un profondo orgasmo con il Tutto. Una danza sottile penetra nel tuo essere, una soglia chiusa da sempre inizia ad aprirsi.

Warum positives Denken uns nicht weiterbringt, Schimpfen aber schon. Dieses Hörbuch ist ein Aufruf zum Widerstand gegen die Ideologie unserer Zeit: den Zwang des Glücks. Ratgeber und Duschbäder fordern uns auf, positiv zu sein. Wir sollen Scheitern als Chance begreifen und ständig unser Selbst entfalten. Doch der Terror des Positiven nervt, belastet uns alle und schwächt den Zusammenhalt: Wir betrachten Glück als Prestige und verstehen politische Probleme als persönliches Versagen. Das zeigt nicht nur die psychologische Forschung, sondern auch die Geschichte.
