The explanation is contained in 7 Dictums (one set of seven principles each for the Left and the Right). Further, the book demonstrates how the Dictums are relative and explanatory to the rise and fall of empires and the causes of war.

Theresia Enzensberger kann nicht schlafen. Also schreibt sie ein Buch über den Schlaf und folgt dabei den verschiedenen Stadien, die wir in der Nacht durchleben. So beginnt sie in der zähneknirschenden Leichtschlafphase mit einem Essay über die Moralisierung von Schlaf, Traum als politische Metapher und die Folgen allgemeinen Schlafmangels. Fast unmerklich wird ihr Text in der Tiefschlafphase privater, innerlicher, und eröffnet uns eine intensivere, persönlichere Sicht auf die Welt, die Kunst, die Literatur.

Following the same principles as those of “Think and Grow Rich”, “The Master Key System” and “The Science of Getting Rich”, the Science of Being Well focuses on your attitude of mind, and the importance of thinking “health” at all times. This book discusses the Principle of Health and the importance of performing the voluntary functions of life in a healthy manner. These voluntary functions are eating, drinking, breathing and sleeping, and if we perform these functions in a perfectly healthy way, we must have perfect health.

In this prize-winning essay for the 2021 Bigelow Institute for Consciousness Studies essay contest, Dr. Ruickbie examines the evidence for the survival of consciousness after death (“life after death”). Initially skeptical, he found that there was sufficient evidence from a wide variety of sources, including apparitions, reincarnation, near-death experiences, after-death communication, and premonitions, that met the contest’s criteria of being “beyond reasonable doubt.”

¿Cómo hago de la meditación parte de mi vida cotidiana? Cuando la mente y los pensamientos desaparecen, te vuelves consciente. ¿Qué es atención plena? Es la consciencia. Osho explora los obstáculos internos y externos que impiden llevar más consciencia a todas nuestras actividades diarias. Él enfatiza que, si bien las técnicas pueden ser útiles para señalar el camino, en sí mismas no son meditación. Por el contrario, la meditación es, en última instancia, un estado del ser en el que somos capaces tanto de acción como de quietud.

Warum positives Denken uns nicht weiterbringt, Schimpfen aber schon. Dieses Hörbuch ist ein Aufruf zum Widerstand gegen die Ideologie unserer Zeit: den Zwang des Glücks. Ratgeber und Duschbäder fordern uns auf, positiv zu sein. Wir sollen Scheitern als Chance begreifen und ständig unser Selbst entfalten. Doch der Terror des Positiven nervt, belastet uns alle und schwächt den Zusammenhalt: Wir betrachten Glück als Prestige und verstehen politische Probleme als persönliches Versagen. Das zeigt nicht nur die psychologische Forschung, sondern auch die Geschichte.

Igor Sibaldi, "Prigioni: Le pene collettive". ARGOMENTO: "La mente mente!" Non è solo un modo di dire. È, anche se pochi oggi se ne sono accorti, l'intuizione del limite a cui giunge la nostra capacità di accorgerci di ciò che sappiamo e di ciò che siamo. Da quel sistema psichico che chiamiamo "mente" e dai suoi principali strumenti, che sono le parole della nostra lingua, dipendono limiti artificiosi della nostra esistenza, vere e proprie prigioni in cui viviamo e alle quali ci adattiamo fin dall'infanzia.

Finding Meaning is a little book on finding inner meaning in a dynamic outer world in constant flux.

We place such overinflated importance on originality and uniqueness that we are prime candidates for being fooled, by thought, that our creations are indeed unique and very original. We are 100 percent unable to see ourselves in the perspective of seven billion minds thinking thoughts all day long. To think that anything we come up with is new and original, is astonishingly naive. To think that our particular opinion on any topic is the right one, the smart one, the educated one, is severely delusional.

Life is short, and it can be sweet. Contemplating death is looking into a mirror that allows us to see these simple facts clearly, as if for the first time. We have every reason to believe that we have but one life to live - and no good reasons to believe otherwise - and death marks the termination of each life. Examining this reality opens doors to understanding ourselves, each other, connection, love, and life itself in an entirely new way.

This audiobook discusses the history and foundation of Stoicism in detail. It also explores the three main disciplines of Stoicism as well as the modern-day gurus of Stoicism. To understand and practice Stoicism is to also understand and internalize the history of this philosophical school and to know the foundations of it. Where we are right now and who we are as a people is because of the history we have behind us. To truly become a Stoic, you must understand the great Stoics of ancient philosophy.
