Imagine time as the force driving existence, rather than just a procession of events. How can that concept enhance how we regard science, religion, philosophy, and our daily living?

This audiobook provides a simplified imperative of two concurrent integrated realms, one of unity where everything occurs, and one where the results of action in unity are displayed dimensionally.

Cómo podemos ser más conscientes cuando el mundo está j*dido?

Cómo mantenerse humano en un mundo j*dido es la respuesta fresca y atractiva a esta importante pregunta. Si has intentado la atención plena y has fallado, le entendemos.

The Objective Standard is a quarterly journal of culture and politics written from an Objectivist perspective (Objectivism being Ayn Rand’s philosophy of reason, egoism, and laissez-faire capitalism). The journal is based on the idea that for every human concern - from personal matters to foreign policy, from the sciences to the arts, from education to legislation - there are demonstrably objective standards by reference to which we can assess what is true or false, good or bad, right or wrong.

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.

Stop Wasting Your Time is an audiobook that has been written to provide wisdom on how to build a great legacy. Contained within, Dr. Miller shares critical keys, so that each listener may have a successful future as well.

This book, more or less, demonstrates that time is most likely an illusion, its speed depends on age, and from a physical point of view, time, as such, may not make sense. Why should all this matter to us? Just as people suffered and died, they will continue to suffer and die. I have nothing to say to that. It’s true. And nothing can be done about it.
