The Analects are a collection of Confucius’s sayings brought together by his pupils shortly after his death in 497 BC. Together they express a philosophy, or a moral code, by which Confucius, one of the most humane thinkers of all time, believed everyone should live. Upholding the ideals of wisdom, self-knowledge, courage and love of one’s fellow man, he argued that the pursuit of virtue should be every individual’s supreme goal.

As in walking we learn to harmonize with the law of gravity, so in living we learn to harmonize with the natural order. By this understanding of the term, one must develop a certain mastery of Taoist philosophy in order to remain alive. What departs the Way is already doomed, posits Lao, thus validating this understanding of his teachings as a nature philosophy which, like the nearly contemporaneous Athenian enlightenment, crested thousands of years ahead of its modern reawakening.

For the Chinese philosopher Sun Tzu, war was synchronic with life. Tzu viewed the world as a network of combat zones where the stakes were high, struggle was the primary mode of being, no one was to be trusted, and survival depended on nothing less than unconditional victory.

Augmented by commentary and anecdotes, this audio edition maintains the pure, near-poetic tone of the original work.

Living transcendentally is not the same as "having the answers to life". The intention with which this book is written is to help you identify the God within yourself. Religion is a guidepost, but not the answer. Philosophy is a guidepost, not the answer. People who over-identify with one group or tribe for ideological reasons invariably meet with disappointment because there will always be some tenets they internally oppose and disagree with. Yet they ignore their inner voice in order to "fit in with the rest".

"Penetre" heißt der Kater, der so seltsam ist wie sein Name. Er spricht die Sprache der Menschen, doch worüber diese gewöhnlich reden, spricht er nie. Noch kein einziges Mal hat man ihn sagen hören, dass er hungrig sei oder müde. Dafür geht es um Fragen wie: Warum lebt der Mensch?, Was ist Glück?, Muss man zur Arbeit gehen?, Ist die Erde wirklich rund? oder Was passiert, wenn wir sterben? Seine Meinungen unterscheiden sich vollkommen von denen der Menschen.

Michael Carrithers guides us through the complex and sometimes conflicting information that Buddhist texts give about the life and teaching of the Buddha. He discusses the social and political background of India in the Buddha's time, and traces the development of his thought. He also assesses the rapid and widespread assimilation of Buddhism and its contemporary relevance. Well-paced and informative, this introduction will enlighten not only those who study Buddhism and comparative religion but anyone intrigued by the remarkable philosophy of one of the greatest religious thinkers.

Cibran, Yakın, Orta ve Uzak Doğu'nun geleneksel öğretilriyle Batı düşüncesini karşılaştırmış, bireysel ve toplumsal olgulara çeşitli sentezler getirmiştir. Yapıtlarında şiirsel bir anlatım kullanmış, doğu düşüncesini batı diliyle yazmıştır. Bu nedenle Cibran'ın eserlerini dinleyenler, bir bakıma peygamberlerin kitaplarını dinliyormuş izlenimine kapılırlar. Tıpkı kutsal kitaplardaki gibi yazım büyük önem taşır. Aforizmalarını sanki meydanlarda yüksek sesle okusunlar diye yazmış gibidir. Her kitapta kurgu aşağı yukarı aynıdır. Bir "öğreten" bir de ondan "öğrenenler" vardır. Konu da az çok aynıdır: Doğa, toplum ve insanoğlu.

"Ceci est l’histoire de Virata, que son peuple célébrait par les quatre noms de la vertu, mais dont le nom n’est pas inscrit dans les chroniques des princes ni mentionné dans le livre des sages, et dont les hommes ont oublié jusqu’au souvenir." S'inspirant de la Bhagavad-Gita, l'un des textes sacrés de l'hindouisme, Zweig nous livre une nouvelle atypique teintée de spiritualité dont le personnage principal, Virata, ne trouvera la sagesse et la paix paix qu'au prix d'un grand sacrifice, celui de son humanité.
