Philosophy Consciousness

The transgender movement has hit breakneck speed. In the space of a year, it’s gone from something that most Americans had never heard of to a cause claiming the mantle of civil rights. But can a boy truly be “trapped” in a girl’s body? Can modern medicine really “reassign” sex? Is sex something “assigned” in the first place? What’s the loving response to a friend or child experiencing a gender-identity conflict? What should our law say on these issues? When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment provides thoughtful answers to all of these questions.

Author Anderson Silver has compiled teachings from Stoicism and other schools of thought in this third volume of a three-book series to help you identify what it is you can control and how you can take absolute control over it.

The Analysis of the Mind by Bertrand Russell is a collection of 15 lectures he delivered in 1920. Russell was a highly reputed philosopher, mathematician, and social critic, and would go on to win the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1950.

This text draws together central components of Hegel's philosophical system as he explores the development of Mind (Spirit, Geist) in its individual, communal and conceptual aspects. Translator William Wallace writes (1894): 'I here offer a translation of the third or last part of Hegel's encyclopaedic sketch of philosophy, Philosophy of Mind. The volume, like its subject, stands complete in itself. But it may also be regarded as a supplement or continuation of the work begun in my version of his logic.'

In 2018, I had a dream of a coming second American Revolution/Civil War. In this dream, I saw events that are now unfolding at a rapid pace. I saw the conclusion of our present trauma, and the triumph over the evil that has been subduing our land. I saw how this victory will be accomplished. This is what I saw.

"Le titre de cette conférence est "L'âme et le corps", c'est-à-dire la matière et l'esprit, c'est-à-dire tout ce qui existe et même, s'il faut en croire une philosophie dont nous parlerons tout à l'heure, quelque chose aussi qui n'existerait pas. Mais rassurez-vous. Notre intention n'est pas d'approfondir la nature de la matière, pas plus d'ailleurs que la nature de l'esprit. On peut distinguer deux choses l'une de l'autre, et en déterminer jusqu'à un certain point les rapports, sans pour cela connaître la nature de chacune d'elles.

This book invites you into a realm where green life—plants, forests, moss, roots, and leaves—take on voice and meaning, forming a hidden structure that slips past the limits of ordinary perception. In this territory, plants are no longer mere scenery or passive decoration. They emerge as full participants in the world’s unfolding story. They send signals and make decisions. They remember, nurture, and maintain connections in silence. They think—but their thought is not a spark of sudden brilliance; it is a slow, continuous current.

The consciousness is far bigger than once perceived. We have lived our whole life thinking and believing that the brain was at the center core of all that is and all that will ever be in this life. Science, medicine, and spirituality have afforded us the truth about what causal is and based on that where you are going. Consciousness, soul, and spirit are fundamental in this universe. Knowing this, take a moment, contemplate: where are you, where are you going?

Does free will exist? The question has fueled heated debates spanning from philosophy to psychology and religion. The answer has major implications, and the stakes are high. To put it in the simple terms that have come to dominate these debates, if we are free to make our own decisions, we are accountable for what we do, and if we aren't free, we're off the hook.

Drawing on a wide variety of influences, from literature to Zen Buddhism, biology to neuroscience, Enough Is Enough lays out the habits anyone can develop to turn them into just the kind of hard-working, deep-thinking ideal they’ve always wanted to be.

Is stress a deadly disease on the rise in modern society? Can mind-body practices from the East help us become well? When it comes to healing, we believe we must look beyond doctors and drugs; we must look within ourselves. Faith, relationships, and attitude matter. But why do we believe such things? From psychoanalysis to the placebo effect to meditation, this vibrant cultural history describes mind-body healing as rooted in a patchwork of stories, allowing us to make new sense of our suffering and to rationalize new treatments and lifestyles.

A new field of collective intelligence has emerged in the last few years, prompted by a wave of digital technologies that make it possible for organizations and societies to think at large scale. This "bigger mind" - human and machine capabilities working together - has the potential to solve the great challenges of our time. So why do smart technologies not automatically lead to smart results?

On those long nights when your mind is racing and the clock slowly ticks its way to dawn, sleep seems unattainable and precious. The three sessions on this audiobook offer time-honoured skills from the yoga tradition that will help you to enjoy a natural, nourishing night’s sleep. In the first session you learn to calm your mind and relax your body using a deep breathing technique with visualisations. The second session is a deep relaxation practice known as yoga nidra, or psychic sleep. It is used here as a self-hypnosis strategy for inducing sleep.

Without consciousness there is nothing. Have you ever wondered why and how the world around you came to exist, and whether there might be an afterlife experience awaiting you after our physical bodies die? Might there actually be a God and a heaven of some sort? The hypothesis presented in this book is that our seemingly physical universe of matter and energy is a virtual simulation which is thought into existence by a universal consciousness which we call God.

Wicca is a belief system that celebrates life and nature. It focuses on the changing cycles of the year, as well as changing cycles of our own life. While our culture promotes development and progress, fast living and constantly pushes us to work more, buy more, and have more, Wicca stands for a peaceful and harmonious way of life in which people make an effort to slow down and notice the world around them.

This is an ideal introduction to the ideas of a man whom many regard as the greatest thinker of our time. Here we encounter the stages in the development of his unique philosophy of consciousness, his key intellectual breakthroughs, his theory of history, and his diagnosis of the political ills of the modern age. The book provides a veritable catalog of the thinkers who created the intellectual foundation of the twentieth century.

What is the soul?

Les chemins mystérieux de la mémoire, de la pensée et de la conscience. Par quel mystère est ce que je perçois, je traite des informations et j'agis ? Partant de l'observation comparée de deux patients, l'un atteint d'une maladie de Parkinson, l'autre d'une maladie d'Alzheimer, Yves Agid déroule un scénario captivant qui nous entraîne sur les chemins de la mémoire, de la pensée, de la conscience et de l'émotion, ces facultés immatérielles "sécrétées" par l'organe le plus complexe du corps humain. L'organisation du cerveau expliquée en détail.

From Silicon Valley boardrooms to rural communes to academic philosophy departments, a seemingly inconceivable idea is being seriously discussed: that the end of humanity’s reign on earth is imminent, and that we should welcome it. Anthropocene antihumanism has been inspired by revulsion at...
