Metaphysics Philosophy

A Brief History of the Philosophy of Time covers subjects such as time and change, the experience of time, physical and metaphysical approaches to the nature of time, the direction of time, time travel, time and freedom of the will, and scientific and philosophical approaches to eternity and the beginning of time. Bardon keeps technical language to a minimum in bringing the resources of over 2500 years of philosophy and science to bear on some of humanity's most fundamental and enduring questions.

Are you interested in philosophy? Do the greatest thinkers from the past influence the way you think and act? Philosophers have been shaping the world for centuries. Their ideas have shaped the way we act as individuals and groups for as long as we can remember, and their deep thought processes have been marveled at and replicated by millions across the world.

Aristotle’s Metaphysics examines what can be asserted about any being insofar as it is and not because of any special qualities that it may possess. Three questions lie at the core of the book: What is existence, and what sorts of things exist in the world? How can things continue to exist, and yet undergo the change we see about us in the natural world? And how can this world be understood? The book also deals with different kinds of causation, form and matter, the existence of mathematical objects, and God as a prime-mover.

As we navigate through life we instinctively model time as having a flowing present that divides a fixed past from open future. This model develops in childhood and is deeply saturated within our language, thought, and behavior, affecting our conceptions of the universe, freedom, and the self. Yet as central as it is to our lives, physics seems to have no room for this flowing present. What Makes Time Special? demonstrates this claim in detail and then turns to two novel positive tasks.

The secret to success has been around since our ancestors crawled out of their cave, and went looking for a Mastodon for lunch. It’s a positive attitude. But even those with that attitude need a boost now and then, and here’s an hour of great ideas to listen to on that commute, so you will hit the ground running. A story masterfully told by that voice from “Down Under”, Denis Daly.

Does the real world, defined as a world of objects that exist independent of human interests, concerns, and cognitive activities, really exist? Jan Westerhoff argues that we have good reason to believe it does not. His discussion considers four main facets of the idea of the real world, ranging from the existence of a separate external and internal world (comprising various mental states congregated around a self), to the existence of an ontological foundation that grounds the existence of all the entities in the world.

Within the concentric circles of Trump's regime lies an unseen culture of occultists, power-seekers, and mind-magicians whose influence is on the rise.

"The Twilight of the Idols", Nietzsche says in Ecce Homo: “If anyone should desire to obtain a rapid sketch of how everything before my time was standing on its head, he should begin reading me in this book. That which is called ‘Idols’ on the title-page is simply the old truth that has been believed in hitherto. In plain English, The Twilight of the Idols means that the old truth is on its last legs.

In "Life is real only then, when I am" Gurdjieff gives answers to the fundamental human questions: how do I really live and what are the requirements to lead a real life? What is reality? What is existence? Has every man a given I or what must he do to acquire a real I? First of all, we have to accept that we are not awake, but asleep. The vast majority of mankind never awakens through its whole life. Only those are given the chance to become awake, who fight for it with their whole hearts and beings.

El pensamiento es el gran poder del universo, pero para entenderlo debemos conocer sus principios fundamentales, las leyes inflexibles que sigue y que brindan libertad ilimitada al individuo. Thomas Troward nos muestra el inmenso poder que pueden otorgar las palabras «Yo Soy» o «el Verbo», escritos en la Biblia y que ninguna corriente filosófica ha podido igualar; además, nos muestra que a través de la palabra podemos alcanzar la Ley Perfecta, la cual es, en realidad, la ley de la libertad.

Neville Goddard's "The Power of Awareness" explores the profound idea that your consciousness is the key to shaping your own reality. He introduces the concept of the Law of Assumption, stating that your dominant beliefs and assumptions dictate your experience.

"Ce petit écrit est une grande déclaration de guerre ; et pour ce qui en est de surprendre les secrets des idoles, cette fois-ci ce ne sont pas des dieux à la mode, mais des idoles éternelles que l'on touche ici du marteau comme on ferait d'un diapason, - il n'y a, en dernière analyse, pas d'idoles plus anciennes, plus convaincues, plus boursouflées... Il n'y en a pas non plus de plus creuses." F. Nietzsche.Véritable résumé sans concession et sans détours de la philosophie de l'auteur, ce volume contient les chapitres suivants.
