Metaphysics Philosophy

What makes us who we are? Many think that we are just complicated machines, or animals that are different from machines only by being conscious. Richard Swinburne comes to the defense of the soul and presents new philosophical arguments that are supported by modern neuroscience. When scientific advances enable neuroscientists to transplant a part of brain into a new body, he reasons, no matter how much we can find out about their brain activity or conscious experiences, we will never know whether the resulting person is the same as before or somebody entirely new.

This book is a three-part journey into the rabbit hole we call the nature of reality. Its ultimate destination is a plausible, living validation of transcendence. Each of its three parts is like a turn of a spiral, exploring recurring ideas through the prisms of religious myth, truth, and belief, respectively. With each turn, the book seeks to convey a more nuanced and complete understanding of the many facets of transcendence.

The Externalisation of the Hierarchy concerns the emergence of the spiritual kingdom into the world of humanity’s daily living. But this will only happen when our motives and values begin to mirror those of the soul. This book shows the encouragement humanity has received (and is receiving) to choose the right path. But human freewill – such a hotly debated subject – cannot be interfered with, however urgent the danger, or great the opportunity.

Neville Goddard's "The Power of Awareness" explores the profound idea that your consciousness is the key to shaping your own reality. He introduces the concept of the Law of Assumption, stating that your dominant beliefs and assumptions dictate your experience.

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.

Science may be known for banishing the demons of superstition from the modern world. Yet just as the demon-haunted world was being exorcized by the enlightening power of reason, a new kind of demon mischievously materialized in the scientific imagination itself. Scientists began to employ hypothetical beings to perform certain roles in thought experiments―experiments that can only be done in the imagination―and these impish assistants helped scientists achieve major breakthroughs that pushed forward the frontiers of science and technology.

The final volume in this treatise on the seven rays contains the fundamental spiritual structure on which the next presentation of the Ageless Wisdom teaching will build. The book is in two parts; the first part enumerates and details the Fourteen Rules for Group Initiation. These are the rules for disciples and initiates, paralleling on a higher turn of the spiral, the rules for applicants contained in the book "Initiation, Human and Solar".

There is perhaps no modern psychic more fascinating than Edgar Cayce and no better authors to explore the intricate details and eye-opening stories of the people who received his readings than Sidney and Nancy Kirkpatrick. The Kirkpatricks, with decades of experience and research, take us on a journey into the archives and history of these psychic passages, finding the most interesting case studies and exploring the most astounding results of the Cayce work in so many people's lives.

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.

Immanuel Kant’s Critique of Pure Reason is a core text of modern philosophy. Presenting an examination of the nature of human reason, its central argument is that the way in which man perceives his environment is a direct consequence of the mind’s ability to act on this environment and convert it into something meaningful. The work brings together two opposing schools of philosophy—rationalism and empiricism—and proposes a third way, which came to be known as transcendental idealism. The work proved to be hugely influential, not least on Marx, Heidegger and Nietzsche.

In Artificial You, Susan Schneider says that it is inevitable that AI will take intelligence in new directions but urges that it is up to us to carve out a sensible path forward. As AI technology turns inward, reshaping the brain, as well as outward, potentially creating machine minds, it is crucial to beware. Homo sapiens, as mind designers, will be playing with "tools" they do not understand how to use: the self, the mind, and consciousness.

Immanuel Kant (1724-1804) was one of the most influential philosophers of all time. His profound thoughts on aesthetics, ethics, and knowledge has had an enormous impact on all subsequent philosophy. Kant asked questions like “What is morally permissible, and what is morally obligatory?” and explored the answers in Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals. Kant's idea of the categorical imperative is a logical proof of the golden rule and the centerpiece of this work.

"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.

A metaphysical interpretation of the New Testament, which teaches oneness as the only truth, and surrender (or letting go) as the practice that leads to spiritual enlightenment. NTI stresses the importance of willingness, acceptance, gratitude, mind-watching, and trust on the path of enlightenment while teaching the listener to let go of unworthiness, fear, guilt, and false (or separation-based) thinking. NTI has been described as a love letter and as a loving approach to letting go of the ego. NTI teaches us how to experience the oneness of God here and now.

Divine Love and Wisdom has been called the most profound work of the Enlightenment scientist and seer Emanuel Swedenborg. It demonstrates how God's love, wisdom, and humanity are reflected in creation and in ourselves, and suggests that the act of creation is not a mystery of the past, but a miracle ongoing in every instant of the present. Like a blueprint of things unseen, Divine Love and Wisdom makes visible the hidden design of the universe, as well as the qualities of its architect.

This is the third volume in the All and Everything series, consisting of four books. These audiobooks are written according to entirely new principles of logical reasoning and strictly directed toward the solution of the following three cardinal problems. The third volume deals with the assistance of the arising, in the mentation, and in the feelings of the listener, of a veritable, non-fantastic representation not of that illusory world which they now perceive, but of the world existing in reality.

Crafted by satirical philosopher and literary trickster George Kevers, The Uncertainty Principle is a thought experiment dressed in academic robes and running shoes. It spirals through epistemology, solipsism, metaphysics, and the mess of modern meaning—equal parts intellectual farce and spiritual séance.
