We all need to make a retreat. To find a few moments in our busy lives to try to stop worrying and fretting about so many different things, and to sit in silence at God’s feet and just to listen. A retreat is simply an attempt to see beyond the 101 cares and occupations we normally have and to ask ourselves, ‘Where it is all leading? What’s the purpose of it all?’ Time to Change takes the basic format and principles of The Spiritual Exercises of St Ignatius and allows us to make a retreat without interrupting too much your ordinary daily life and all the things you have to do.

Seeking a memorial to his reign that would last longer than any coin or statue, a benevolent king seeks out the Wisdom of the Ages. Farmers and physicians, laborers and soldiers, teachers and priests - the citizens of his kingdom share their wisdom; and when all have been heard, the king discovers a great truth that can change the way we live.

What is consciousness? This audiobook presents an understanding of life that transcends matter. More importantly, it transcends the difference between what you are and what I am. Despite its reliance on what is known through Western Science, it is a transcendence of the Western understanding of reality. It does not begin with a world and then try to figure out how life evolved within it; it begins with life and extrapolates where the world came from.

WAS KANN ICH WISSEN? Wie gewinne ich Erkenntnisse von der Welt, wie sicher sind diese Erkenntnisse? WAS SOLL ICH TUN? Welche Handlungen aus der Fülle der Möglichkeiten sind ethisch vertretbar? WAS DARF ICH HOFFEN? Kann es vernünftig sein, an Gott zu glauben? WAS IST DER MENSCH? Welche Stellung hat der Mensch im Kosmos, in der Geschichte der Evolution? Professor Harald Lesch befasst sich mit dem Allergrößten und dem Allerkleinsten: Der Astrophysiker hat den Kosmos im Blick und die Grundbausteine der Materie. Und gleichzeitig denkt er über die Grundfragen der Menschheit nach, er lehrt Naturphilosophie an der Hochschule für Philosophie in München.

Author Johnathan Borschkey brings his biting wit and not-so-common sense to his latest title: Kill Your ISMs. Inside, he examines the result of what happens when you choose to surrender your brain to the people who claim to have a monopoly on the one true thought system for living out the rest of your days. Liberalism, communism, evangelicalism, pacifism, creationism, fascism, environmentalism, conservatism, objectivism - there are far more "one true thought system" out there than you can possibly imagine.

Antike und Mittelalter: Platon und Aristoteles verstanden die Tugenden als Charaktereigenschaften jedes Einzelnen. Die christliche Theologie hat den Tugendkatalog der Antike übernommen, ihm aber eine ganz andere Wertigkeit, vor allem eine andere seelische Qualität gegeben. (28 Min.)

Being a student at Americus High School was the worst experience of Greg Wittkamper's life. Greg came from a nearby Christian commune, Koinonia, whose members devoutly and publicly supported racial equality. When he refused to insult and attack his school's first black students in 1964, Greg was mistreated as badly as they were: harassed and bullied and beaten.

Born in Sag Harbor, Long Island, Prentice Mulford sailed to San Francisco on a clipper in 1856 and remained for 16 years. He left for a long tour of Europe in 1872 and then settled in New York City where he became known as a lecturer, author of poems and essays, and a columnist for the New York Daily Graphic (a serial). He's credited with building the body of knowledge of the philosophy known as New Thought.

Horace Mann was the founder of the free public school movement in Massachusetts then America and, by inference, the whole world. This was his great mission, which he accomplished.

A system can describe what we see (the solar system), operate a computer (Windows 10), or be made on a page (the 14 engineered lines of a sonnet). In this book, Clifford Siskin shows that system is best understood as a genre - a form that works physically in the world to mediate our efforts to understand it. Indeed, many Enlightenment authors published works they called "system" to compete with the essay and the treatise.

When Mark Zuckerberg announced in front of a cheering Oprah audience his $100 million pledge to transform the Newark Schools - and to solve the education crisis in every city in America - it looked like a huge win for then-mayor Cory Booker and governor Chris Christie. But their plans soon ran into a constituency not so easily moved - Newark's key education players, fiercely protective of their billion-dollar-per-annum system.

Human analysis differs from every other system of character analysis in that it classifies man into five types according to his biological evolution. No person achieves success or happiness when compelled to do what he naturally dislikes to do, since likes and dislikes stay with him to the grave. One of the biggest modern problems is that of helping men and women to discover and to capitalize on their inborn traits. Each of the five types is discussed in detail, with specific and detailed examples.

Rudolf Eisler stellte schon vor über 100 Jahren fest: "Die organisierten Massen haben zu allen Zeiten eine wichtige Rolle im Völkerleben gespielt, niemals aber in solchem Maße wie heute. Die unbewusste Wirksamkeit der Massen, die an die Stelle der bewussten Tatkraft der einzelnen tritt, bildet ein wesentliches Kennzeichen der Gegenwart." Eine Masse von Intellektuellen ist nicht besser als eine Masse von Proletariern. Eine Masse ist immer nur Gefühlen und einfachen Parolen zugänglich, niemals der Logik.
