Metaphysics Philosophy

The Neville Goddard Lecture Series will be presented in a 12-volume set, 25 lectures per volume. This is Volume V.

We are all supremely interested in one subject. There is one thing that means more to us than all the other things in the world put together, and that is our search for God and the understanding of his nature. The aim of the metaphysical movement is to teach the practice of the presence of God.

Physics and mysticism are explored in A New Model of the Universe by P.D. Ouspensky. He explores esoteric schools of thought and links them to modern physics and philosophy. Topics include the fourth dimension, symbolism of the tarot, yoga, dreams, and mysticism. This audiobook takes a pragmatic and scientific look at New Thought philosophies flowering at the turn of the 19th century.

In "Life is real only then, when I am" Gurdjieff gives answers to the fundamental human questions: how do I really live and what are the requirements to lead a real life? What is reality? What is existence? Has every man a given I or what must he do to acquire a real I? First of all, we have to accept that we are not awake, but asleep. The vast majority of mankind never awakens through its whole life. Only those are given the chance to become awake, who fight for it with their whole hearts and beings.

More than at any other time in human history, we live in an age defined by movement and mobility; yet, we lack a unifying theory which takes this seriously as a starting point for philosophy. The history of philosophy has systematically explained movement as derived from something else that does not move: space, eternity, force, and time.

Global warming is perhaps the most dramatic example of what Timothy Morton calls "hyperobjects" - entities of such vast temporal and spatial dimensions that they defeat traditional ideas about what a thing is in the first place. In this book, Morton explains what hyperobjects are and their impact on how we think, how we coexist with one another and with nonhumans, and how we experience our politics, ethics, and art.

Las personas desconocen la existencia de ciertos instrumentos que son útiles para el logro de sus objetivos y de la excelencia. Algunos logran acercarse a ellos y alcanzan ciertos propósitos; otros, los ignoran por completo y viven erráticos, alejándose poco a poco de sus metas e ideales; finalmente, están aquellos que logran encontrar la "llave maestra" y alcanzan la cúspide. Pero, ¿qué simboliza esta llave? ¿qué puertas te abre? Y sobre todo, ¿qué puertas te permite cerrar?

Are your manifestations taking too long to show up? And are you tired of waiting? Divine timing is a phrase that’s been floating around the spiritual community for quite some time now. It is the idea that everything in the Universe happens at "just the right moment" without you having any control over it. There are many missing links when it comes to law of attraction teachings. And one of the biggest ones is knowing how to close the gap between where you are and where you want to be. And even if you can't see a way out of your current reality, there is one.

This short, smart book tells you everything you need to know about "nothing". What remains when you take all the matter away? Can empty space - "nothing" - exist? To answer these questions, eminent scientist Frank Close takes us on a lively and accessible journey that ranges from ancient ideas and cultural superstitions to the frontiers of current research, illuminating the story of how scientists have explored the void and the rich discoveries they have made there.

The Alchemist's Handbook has long been an essential contribution to the study of alchemy since its first publication in 1960. It still stands as a groundbreaking work presenting in clear, concise language a practical manual of working knowledge that was formerly handed down under oath of secrecy. The scope of alchemical work is to provide both a means to synthesize all the other sciences and the necessary training of the intellectual and spiritual faculties. This edition includes a new foreword by Robert Allen Bartlett, author of Real Alchemy.

While the original intention behind the group working instructions contained in Volume I was to externalise eventually through groups of nine integrated disciples, the work of nine subjectively organised groups (hence the name "Groups of Nine" given to this work), this second volume contains the teaching given between the years 1940 and 1949 after the group had been reduced and reorganised into one group, "the new seed group."

Socrate est souvent qualifié de "père de la philosophie". S'il n'en est peut-être pas le fondateur, il est le premier à se détourner de l'étude de la nature et à insister pour que la réflexion philosophique s'intéresse désormais, et exclusivement, aux "affaires humaines". En raison de cette stature, et du fait qu'il n'ait jamais laissé d'écrit, on a longtemps cherché dans les œuvres de Platon, de Xénophon, d'Aristophane ou encore d'Aristote, la trace du vrai Socrate, du Socrate historique.

Why are we here? Human beings have asked themselves this question for centuries. Modern science largely argues that human beings are chance products of a purposeless universe, but other traditions believe humanity has an essential role and responsibility in creation. Lachman brings together many strands of esoteric, spiritual and philosophical thought to form a counter-argument to the nihilism that permeates the twenty-first century.

Does the real world, defined as a world of objects that exist independent of human interests, concerns, and cognitive activities, really exist? Jan Westerhoff argues that we have good reason to believe it does not. His discussion considers four main facets of the idea of the real world, ranging from the existence of a separate external and internal world (comprising various mental states congregated around a self), to the existence of an ontological foundation that grounds the existence of all the entities in the world.

Fascinated by the mysterious power of human intention to make things happen? Discover its real-world applications by exploring the breakthrough research of psycho-energetic science. Does the physics of consciousness have you scratching your head? Want to know how being intentional can improve your life? Ever wondered where science and spirituality intersect?

Combining spiritual and philosophical ideas made popular in Valiant Thor's other books, The Art of Ascension is a how-to guide for the new millennium. Inspirational, timely, and practical, this book is the perfect prescription for survival and growth.

The Critique of Pure Reason, published in 1781, by German philosopher Immanuel Kant, cornerstone of modern philosophy, is one of the most important works on metaphysics ever published and is often seen as the culmination of centuries of early-modern philosophical thought. The Critique of Pure Reason, also known as The First Critique, incorporates in-depth discussions on empirical reason, "pure" reason, human knowledge as a whole, space and time, cause and effect, and much, much more.

"Ce petit écrit est une grande déclaration de guerre ; et pour ce qui en est de surprendre les secrets des idoles, cette fois-ci ce ne sont pas des dieux à la mode, mais des idoles éternelles que l'on touche ici du marteau comme on ferait d'un diapason, - il n'y a, en dernière analyse, pas d'idoles plus anciennes, plus convaincues, plus boursouflées... Il n'y en a pas non plus de plus creuses." F. Nietzsche.Véritable résumé sans concession et sans détours de la philosophie de l'auteur, ce volume contient les chapitres suivants.

La Doctrina Secreta de Helena Petrovna Blavatsky es un libro que analiza e interpreta Las Estancias del Dzyan, uno de los libros más antiguos de la humanidad, el cual está compuesto de siete Estancias que contienen un lenguaje simbólico tan críptico que develarlo y explicarlo necesitaría varios cientos de páginas. La Doctrina Secreta es, por consiguiente, la obra más importante que existe sobre la metafísica. Una síntesis importante de ciencia, religión y filosofía; un documento necesario y útil para todo estudiante sincero y consagrado a dicho estudio.

Schopenhauer, the "philosopher of pessimism", makes it very plain that he regards the world and our life in it as a bad joke. But if the world is indifferent to our fate, it doesn't thwart us on purpose. The world's facade is supported by what Schopenhauer calls the Universal Will, blind and without purpose. This Will brings on all our misery and suffering; our only hope is to liberate ourselves from its power and from the trappings of individualism and egoism that are at its mercy.
