DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is a book for brave, nonconformist women (or for those who aspire to be), written from the heart and soul of a spiritual rocker chick. Lifelong psychic Lisa Marie Selow leads you to uncover your true self, reveal your life purpose, and carve out your spiritual path. She invites you to engage in positive rebellion by subverting your good-girl persona, letting go of limiting beliefs that you’ve inherited, and creating your own definition of perfect. Lisa encourages you to be a different type of rebel, one that defies the stereotype of a misfit loner without a cause. Instead, you’re called to make a difference, rocking the world with your unique gifts and talents. Through enjoyable, engaging exercises, you’ll create your very own manual for living according to your own rules. You can, as a modern mystic, drop out of the School of Hard Knocks, for instance. Lisa shares compelling stories from her own life as well as those of other women (including mentors from history) to illustrate how you can radically rewrite your life story. Starting your journey from the premise that you already are perfect, A Rebel Chick Mystic’s Guide will help you excavate the real you—and, in the process, you’ll be guided to design action plans to move forward with the dreams and goals that make you the unique and amazing person you are.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this book, author Ge Ling Shang provides a systematic comparison of original texts by Zhuangzi (fourth century BCE) and Nietzsche (1846–1900), under the rubric of religiosity, to challenge those who have customarily relegated both thinkers to relativism, nihilism, escapism, pessimism, or anti-religion. Shang closely examines Zhuangzi's and Nietzsche's respective critiques of metaphysics, morals, language, knowledge, and humanity in general and proposes a conception of the philosophical outlooks of Zhuangzi and Nietzsche as complementary. In the creative and vital spirit of Nietzsche, as in the tranquil and inward spirit of Zhuangzi, Shang argues that a surprisingly similar vision and aspiration toward human liberation and freedom exists—one in which spiritual transformation is possible by religiously affirming life in this world as sacred and divine.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAmong Anglo-American philosophers, interest in mysticism has typically been limited to the question of whether or not mystical and religious experi ences provide evidence for, or knowledge of, the existence and nature of God. Most authors conclude that they do not, because such experiences lack certain qualities needed in order to be counted as cognitive. In this study I examine some current philosophical opinions about mysticism and objec tions to its epistemic significance in the context of a detailed study of the writings of a single mystical author, the Spanish Carmelite Saint John of the Cross (1542-1591). I argue that from his works one can draw a coherent theory of what takes place in the Christian mystical life, and will indicate how acceptance of this theory might be defended as rational through a type of inference often referred to as the "Argument to the Best Explanation. " In this way I hope to show that mysticism still has a significant bearing on the justification of religious faith even if it cannot be used to "prove" the exis tence of God. The nature and advantages of my own somewhat unusual approach to mysticism can perhaps best be explained by contrasting it with the way other authors have dealt with the subject. One of the most striking develop ments in recent decades has been the growing fascination with mysticism, meditation, and the experiential aspects of religion.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe transgressive writing of Georges Bataille (1897-1962) and the rigorous ethical philosophy of social activist and Christian mystic Simone Weil (1909-1943) seem to belong to different worlds. Yet in the political ferment of 1930s Paris, Bataille and Weil were intellectual adversaries who exerted a powerful fascination on each other. Saints of the Impossible provides the first in-depth comparison of Bataille's and Weil's thought, showing how an exploration of their relationship reveals new facets of the achievements of two of the twentieth century's leading intellectual figures and raises far-reaching questions about literary practice, politics, and religion.

The aristocrat and squirarchy have also been strangely drawn to this calling. The sense of infallibility peculiar to the English has been the hallmark of their eccentricity.
