Philosophy Consciousness

本書のキーメッセージは、「理不尽なのは〈世の中〉ではなく、私たちの〈頭の中〉である」。努力が報われず、抵抗が無駄に終わるのはなぜか。本書では、「世の中」と「頭の中」の関係を明らかにし、閉塞感や苛立ちの原因に迫ります。本書のタイトル、〈「無理」の構造〉は、〈理(ことわり)なきことのしくみ〉です。

Milyen világban élünk? Lehet, hogy az a „megbízható ember", aki a vezér parancsa szerint percenként képes véleményét változtatni? Valaminek vége (a nyugat alkonya?) és valami új kezdődik? De mi?

Esta é uma seleção de ensinamentos de Confúcio (551-479 a.C.), um dos maiores vultos da filosofia e da religião. Confúcio ensinava que a sobrevivência da civilização depende do exercício correto de uma cultura racional, da prática de uma moral eficaz em inibir o mal e ensejar o altruísmo e a bondade.

Don and Linda Pendleton, authors of the popular book, To Dance With Angels, probe the wisdom of the sages, miracles and angelic influences, aliens and UFOs, death and near-death experiences, spirit communication and spiritual encounters, in this definitive examination of mankind's search for the wellsprings and moving forces of the human experience.

El libro del Génesis habla de una escalera "apoyada en la tierra" cuyo "extremo toca el cielo" y de la cual suben y descienden los ángeles. Este subir de la tierra y bajar del cielo se le presenta al autor, tras la muerte repentina de su hijo, como una vía doble y simultánea para poder aliviar su dolor y acceder a la sabiduría. Paralelamente esta imagen le sugiere diferentes formas de pensar, una clara y sencilla, que poco a poco se va haciendo poesía, y otra, emocional, compleja e incierta, que se va convirtiendo en filosofía.

Lo que experimentamos como conciencia despierta es sólo una fracción del alcance total de la conciencia de que disponemos. Este libro introducirá el concepto de turiya, o consciencia pura, y explicará cómo puede acceder a este vasto almacén de conocimiento y consciencia.

Pour quelles raisons l'intelligence peut-elle conduire à l'idiotie ? Il arrive en effet que des personnes brillantes ou cultivées paraissent parfois stupides ou agissent de manière inepte : en recherchant l'inouï, la performance et la perfection ; en voulant tout comprendre et avoir raison ; en modelant le réel à leur convenance. Affirmer son intelligence au détriment de l'intelligence elle-même : c'est à ce paradoxe que cet ouvrage s'attache, partant du principe que le génie académique ne garantit pas nécessairement la sagesse ni l'ingéniosité dans la vie quotidienne.

Avec ses racines, son fût et ses branchages, l'arbre relie le ciel, la terre et le monde souterrain. Symbole parfait puisqu'il réunit tous les niveaux du réel, il lie la matière et l'esprit, l'inconscient et le conscient, le réel et le rêve. Synthèse du monde, l'arbre incarne la vie inépuisable, la réalité absolue, le sacré par excellence. Comme la poésie, le langage symbolique crée une passerelle vers les idées les plus puissantes grâce à l'imagination. Loin de la simple rêverie, la voie symbolique donne de l'unité et du sens à nos consciences souvent éparpillées.

"Acerca del alma" es una de las obras más influyentes de la historia del pensamiento occidental. En ella, Aristóteles analiza la naturaleza del alma humana, no como una entidad separada del cuerpo, sino como la forma de un cuerpo vivo, aquello que le da vida, propósito y capacidad.

Die Akasha Chronik – ein Begriff, der für viele mystisch und unerreichbar klingt, für andere jedoch ein faszinierendes Geheimnis birgt. Sie wird oft als die „Datenbank des Universums“ oder das „Gedächtnis des Kosmos“ bezeichnet. Doch was verbirgt sich hinter diesem geheimnisvollen Konzept? Was ist die Akasha Chronik und wie kann sie uns in unserem täglichen Leben unterstützen?

" Philosopher, c’est apprendre à mourir " : dans cette maxime de Montaigne, " mourir " est souvent compris comme la fin de notre vie biologique. Pourtant sa portée est plus vaste : mourir est une affaire de chaque instant, une mise en abyme continuelle de soi et de sa pensée, de sa réflexion. Et réfléchir implique de rompre momentanément avec nos schémas habituels, nos routines quotidiennes, nos croyances et nos présupposés. Cet ouvrage montre comment la pratique philosophique nous permet de " devenir nous-mêmes", en nous écartant de l’immédiateté, en cessant – un temps – de vivre.

What is human happiness and how can we promote it? These questions are central to human existence and Happiness Explained draws on scientific research from economics, psychology, and philosophy, as well as a range of other disciplines, to outline a new paradigm in which human flourishing plays a central role in the assessment of national and global progress. It shows why the traditional national income approach is limited as a measure of human wellbeing.

Can we ever truly comprehend the universe before we fully understand consciousness and the wonders, and limits, of the mind? Ulf Danielsson, an acclaimed theoretical physicist who has dedicated his career to probing the deepest mysteries of nature, thinks not. As he dismantles the arguments of esteemed mathematicians and scientists, who would substitute their mathematical models for reality and equate the mind to a computer, he makes a lucid and passionate case that it is nature, full of beauty and meaning, which must compel us.

In this short work, Allen explores the way in which our minds create and interact with our circumstances, travelling from the inner world of thoughts to the final conquest of the spirit. On the way he explores the way in which we create our own futures through the habits we choose, how bodily conditions are no excuse for spiritual weakness, and how true poverty is of the mind, not the circumstances.

On Memory is a work of the Greek philosopher and scientist Aristotle, included in the collection Parva Naturalia. The Parva Naturalia (a conventional Latin title first used by Giles of Rome: "short treatises on nature") are a collection of seven works by Aristotle, which discuss natural phenomena involving the body and the soul. They form parts of Aristotle's biology.

Consciousness is our gateway to experience: it enables us to recognize Van Gogh’s starry skies, be enraptured by Beethoven’s Fifth, and stand in awe of a snowcapped mountain. Yet consciousness is subjective, personal, and famously difficult to examine: philosophers have for centuries declared this mental entity so mysterious as to be impenetrable to science. In The Ravenous Brain, neuroscientist Daniel Bor departs sharply from this historical view, and proposes a new model for how consciousness works.
