Philosophy Consciousness

What we experience as “waking consciousness” is only a fraction of the total scope of consciousness available to us. This audiobook will introduce you to the concept of turiya, or pure consciousness, and explain how you can tap into this vast storehouse of knowledge and awareness. Most of us go through life without ever suspecting that there’s a higher level of consciousness that we can access. We’re content to go about our lives, day in and day out, without questioning reality's true nature. But what if there was more to consciousness than what we’re currently aware of?

Nothing seems more real than the minds of other people. When you consider what your boss is thinking or whether your spouse is happy, you are admitting them into the "mind club". It's easy to assume other humans can think and feel, but what about a cow, a computer, a corporation? What kinds of minds do they have? Daniel M. Wegner and Kurt Gray are award-winning psychologists who have discovered that minds - while incredibly important - are a matter of perception.

"Los hechos son testarudos y el incosciente tiene buena memoria", recuerda Anne Ancelin Schützenberger en este libro en el que presenta su terapia transgeneracional psicogenealógica contextual, un punto de vista que concibe al ser humano como un eslabón en la cadena de generaciones.

Sense and Sensibilia 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.

In Meditation Now or Never, Steve Hagen, a Zen priest and best-selling author of Buddhism Plain and Simple, provides an accessible and thorough manual on meditation for both newcomers and experienced practitioners. In the modern world, our lives are more frenetic than ever. We live with a burning sense that we have to get something done. But what do we really achieve? And why are we never satisfied? This book is an invitation to switch off and to enjoy stillness - right now.

This new book from Zen teacher, psychiatrist, psychoanalyst, and critical favorite, Barry Magid, inspires us to outgrow the impossible pursuit of happiness, and instead make peace with the perfection of the way things are. Including ourselves! Using wryly gentle prose, Magid invites readers to consider the notion that our certainty that we are broken may be turning our pursuit of happiness into a source of more suffering.

In this inspiring and incisive offering, Barry Magid uses the language of modern psychology and psychotherapy to illuminate one of Buddhism's most powerful and often mysterious technologies: the Zen koan. What's more, Magid also uses the koans to expand upon the insights of psychology (especially self-psychology and relational psychotherapy) and open for the listener new perspectives on the functioning of the human mind and heart.

Ce voyage au fin fond de la dépendance, cette invitation au gai acquiescement de soi emprunte deux versants. Sous la forme d'un traité, sont explorées les voies qui conduisent à la grande santé, au joyeux dire oui. En contrepoint, dans des fragments, une autre voix se donne à entendre. À la troisième personne, lointaine et pourtant si intime, l'auteur narre sa singulière quête de liberté en plein chaos. Chemin faisant, Alexandre Jollien nous livre un carnet de route, un véritable traité de déculpabilisation.

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.

Julia Cameron shares beautiful prayers of empowerment followed by potent declarations and reflections on the nature of change and coping. They extend beyond affirmations to facilitate a powerful awakening of the potential of the human soul and to revitalize our abilities to transform our lives in the face of whatever the universe may put in our life's path. Transitions will help guide the soul and draw listeners toward the source of their inner strength. Whether listened to in one sitting, or over time, this is an audiobook no thoughtful being will want to be without.

The new field of evolutionary philosophy, unlike its aborted predecessors of the past, is primarily concerned with understanding why Homo sapiens are philosophical in the first place. It is not focused on advocating some specific future reform, but rather in uncovering why humans are predisposed to ask so many questions which, at least at the present stage, cannot be answered.

Stoische Ruhe: Wie auch Sie mit der alten Philosophie der Stoiker ganz einfach zu umfassender Ruhe und Gelassenheit kommen! Mit zahlreichen Anwendungsgebieten und Übungen. Stoische Gelassenheit - das klingt für Sie nach einer traumhaften Wunschvorstellung, scheint aber gleichzeitig nicht mehr als eine unerreichbare Redewendung zu sein?

Sie möchten, dass endlich nicht mehr die Situation Sie kontrolliert, sondern Sie die Situation?

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.

Why do I act the way I do? How can I think one thing, and do another? I know better! Why do I feel like a different person some days, on top of the world sometimes, and horrible at other times? There are answers to all of these questions. Anderson Silver has compiled teachings from stoicism and other schools of thought in Your Duality Within to help you navigate through them. A follow-up to the very successful Your User’s Manual, Your Duality Within is the second book in a three-book series tackling the most basic questions of our humanity.

In this briskly written volume, a case is made that a value is a belief as to how one live one's life if one's psychological architecture is to retain its integrity, and a case is thereby made that intention is an operationalized value. This analysis makes it possible to distinguish between minds that do and minds that do not host selves. (Selves are minds that have values; minds that are not selves do not.) The relationship between weakness of the will and self-deception is made clear, and it is explained how it is that one can knowingly act in self-destructive ways.

Un ricercatore e una studentessa, pur non conoscendosi direttamente, iniziano una fitta corrispondenza epistolare. Nel rapporto si inserisce il protagonista-narratore che, entrato in contatto con il ricercatore, instaura con lui un intenso dialogo, dal quale emergono le paure, le angosce e i desideri più reconditi che attanagliano l'uomo moderno, mai come in questo inizio millennio bisognoso di certezze.

Finding your ikigai—the thing that makes you jump out of bed in the morning—is one of the most important things you can do for yourself. The concept of ikigai is closely linked to the idea of finding one's passion in life. If you want to live a life of meaning and passion, you’ll have to start by facing your deepest fears and desiring a life worth living. If you don’t have this desire, your life becomes a journey of self-improvement with nothing else to define you. In this audiobook, you will learn what Ikigai is all about.

No-Point (2022) might be a tighter exploration and continuation of what was explored in No-Point Perspective (2020). Justin Allen and Andreas Müller continue their talks about nothing and still have nothing really to say; even less to say in fact. Allen and Müller are still able to turn something like talking about the weather, or in this case, nothing, into an exploration.

Gerade die unscheinbaren Nebenaspekte des Alltags können die wichtigsten Lebensfragen beinhalten. Wilhelm Schmid beschreibt in seinem Hörbuch "Die Kunst der Balance" 100 Facetten der Lebenskunst. Auf heitere Art beleuchtet er die kulturelle Bedeutung des Wurstsalats, spricht über die Kunst des Pfeifens und bringt dem Leser das kleine Glück einer lästigen Erkältung näher.

Do racing thoughts keep you awake night? Do you find it hard to focus? Does constant mental chatter hinder your concentration? Do you have difficulty relaxing your mind. Do you feel like you can't control your thoughts. Do you feel like you can't get out of your head? Is your attention span shorter than a gnome with ADD?
