Philosophy Consciousness

What drives all of your life’s priorities, values, and decisions? In the sequel to An End to Upside Down Thinking, Mark Gober builds a science-based worldview from which we can create a compass for living. In stark contrast to his prior belief system, Gober explains why life is actually full of meaning. From this perspective, he lays out how we might approach life accordingly, along with the well-traveled “awakening” path that we’re likely to encounter. Approaching life in a new way is the antidote that our civilization desperately needs.

What happens when we accept that everything we feel and think stems not from an immaterial spirit but from electrical and chemical activity in our brains? In this thought-provoking narrative - drawn from professional expertise as well as personal life experiences - trailblazing neurophilosopher Patricia S. Churchland grounds the philosophy of mind in the essential ingredients of biology. She reflects with humor on how she came to harmonize science and philosophy, the mind and the brain, abstract ideals and daily life.

Ayurveda or ayurvedic medicine is an ancient medical system. This holistic medicine was originated in India about 3,000 years ago, and it is still going strong and expanding outside of India due to its effectiveness of healing people through diet, herbal remedies, and a holistic health approach.

Ruby Wax - comedian, writer and mental health campaigner - shows us how our minds can jeopardize our sanity. With her own periods of depression and now a Masters from Oxford in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy to draw from, she explains how our busy, chattering, self-critical thoughts drive us to anxiety and stress. If we are to break the cycle, we need to understand how our brains work, rewire our thinking and find calm in a frenetic world.

Author Anderson Silver has compiled teachings from Stoicism and other schools of thought in this third volume of a three-book series to help you identify what it is you can control and how you can take absolute control over it.

As we open up to life and love and each other, as we awaken from our dream of separation, we encounter not just the bliss of existence, but its pain, too; not only life's ecstasy, but also its agony. Healing doesn't always feel good or comfortable or even "spiritual", for we are inevitably forced to confront our shadows, fears, and deepest longings - those secret parts of ourselves that we have denied, repressed, or deemed "negative" and unworthy of our love.

Susan Shumsky is a successful author in the new age/spirituality field, writing books on meditation, intuition, prayer, auras, chakras, and the like. But in the 1970s, she was one of only a handful of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s personal attendants and administrators, in India, Switzerland, and elsewhere. Following the teachings of Maharishi displaced Susan’s devotion to the hippie lifestyle, as she learned about meditation and grew spiritually self-aware. Maharishi founded the spiritual movement TM (Transcendental Meditation).

Epistemic vices are character traits, attitudes, or thinking styles that prevent us from gaining, keeping, or sharing knowledge. In this book, Quassim Cassam gives an account of the nature and importance of these vices, which include closed-mindedness, intellectual arrogance, wishful thinking, and prejudice. In providing the first extensive coverage of vice epistemology, an exciting new area of philosophical research, Vices of the Mind uses real examples drawn primarily from the world of politics to develop a compelling theory of epistemic vice.

What is the connection between physics and consciousness? In this groundbreaking new audiobook, Samuel Avery presents the quantum screen, a paradigm-shifting model of perceptual consciousness and of the world. This model looks to the enigmas of modern physics to demonstrate the primacy of consciousness - the essential oneness of spirit and matter.

Without consciousness there is nothing. Have you ever wondered why and how the world around you came to exist, and whether there might be an afterlife experience awaiting you after our physical bodies die? Might there actually be a God and a heaven of some sort? The hypothesis presented in this book is that our seemingly physical universe of matter and energy is a virtual simulation which is thought into existence by a universal consciousness which we call God.

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.

Dis-moi ce que tu ne peux concevoir et je te dirai les limites de ta pensée! Pourquoi est-il si difficile d'envisager sereinement le contraire de nos opinions? Les oppositions semblent pourtant indispensables à la structuration de notre esprit. À commencer par le bien et le mal, le vrai et le faux, le juste et l'injuste. Philosopher à travers les contraires est un combat à pratiquer avec nous-mêmes pour enfin réfléchir. À recommander pour se libérer des raideurs qui nous paralysent et prendre plaisir à entrevoir l'unité de l'être à travers ses oppositions.

ما زالت المكتبة العربية بحاجةٍ ماسّة إلى الكتب الجديدة في علم النفس والتربية، على الرغم من النشاط الكبير الذي نلاحظه في هذه السنوات الأخيرة في إخراج الكتب العلمية ونشر البحوث المتنوعة في الفلسفة والعلوم الاجتماعية، ولا شكَّ في أنَّ إقبال الجمهور على قراءة كل ما يُطرح في أمور النفس وأسرارها ومشاكل التربية واتجاهاتها المختلفة كبير جدًا ويدعو إلى الغبطة والتفاؤل.

Während der Jahre des Ersten Weltkrieges widmete sich Steiner intensiv der Verteidigung seiner anthroposophischen Geisteswissenschaft gegen zeitgenössische Kritiker. Die Schrift ›Von Seelenrätseln‹ von 1917 ist Ausdruck dieser Bemühungen. Steiner legt darin Wert darauf, die Anthroposophie methodisch klarer zu fassen als in früheren Texten und deren Forschungsansatz methodisch gegenüber dem naturwissenschaftlichen Paradigma zu verorten.
