In an era in which "resistance" has become tokenized, popular Indigenous author Kaitlin Curtice reclaims it as a basic human calling. Resistance is for every human who longs to see their neighbors' holistic flourishing. We each have a role to play in the world right where we are, and our everyday acts of resistance hold us all together. Curtice shows that we can learn to practice embodied ways of belonging and connection to ourselves and one another through everyday practices, such as getting more in touch with our bodies, resting, and remembering our ancestors. She explores four "realms of resistance"—the personal, the communal, the ancestral, and the integral—and shows how these realms overlap and why all are needed for our liberation. Listeners will be empowered to seek wholeness in whatever spheres of influence they inhabit.Mostra libro
The Antichrist by Friedrich Nietzsche What if everything you believed about morality, religion, and truth was built on a lie? In The Antichrist, Friedrich Nietzsche unleashes a thunderous critique of Christianity and its moral foundations, challenging the pillars of Western thought with fiery precision. A cornerstone of his late philosophy, this work is both an assault on complacent belief systems and a bold declaration of the will to power, vitality, and individual greatness. Nietzsche, a prophet of existentialism and iconoclasm, invites the listener to confront uncomfortable truths. Through razor-sharp aphorisms, he dissects the psychology of faith, the decay of values, and the rise of decadence disguised as virtue. In powerful passages, he exposes how pity can weaken the spirit, how priestly morality undermines life itself, and how the figure of Christ has been distorted into a symbol of weakness rather than strength. Each chapter is a spark that ignites reflection, rebellion, or revelation—yet never leaves you indifferent. More than a philosophical manifesto, The Antichrist remains a cultural lightning rod. Its bold vision continues to resonate in modern debates about freedom, authenticity, and the role of religion in human progress. For thinkers, seekers, and those who dare to question, this audiobook offers a direct channel to one of history’s most electrifying minds. Narrated with the precision and poise of advanced AI voice technology, this edition ensures clarity, rhythm, and accessibility—ideal for absorbing Nietzsche’s provocative arguments while immersed in thought or motion. Dare to confront the uncomfortable. Challenge the herd. Listen to The Antichrist and enter the mind of a philosopher who burned with the desire to awaken humanity from its moral slumber. Experience it now—let the voice of Nietzsche echo through your mind.Mostra libro
Neem Karoli Baba or Maharaj-ji - was a guru, mystic, and devotee of Lord Hanuman. He is the spiritual master of a number of prominent Americans who traveled to India in the 1960s and 70s, including spiritual teachers Ram Dass, Bhagavan Das, and musicians Krishna Das and Jai Uttal. Maharaji was a lifelong adept of bhakti-yoga and encouraged service to others (seva) as the highest form of unconditional devotion to God. He has been known by different names, through the years. He gave no discourses; the briefest, simplest stories were his teachings. Usually, he sat or lay on a wooden bench wrapped in a plaid blanket while a few devotees sat around him. Visitors came and went; they were given food, a few words, a nod, a pat on the head or back, and they were sent away. There was gossip and laughter for he loved to joke. Maharaj-ji’s teachings were simple and universal. He often said, “Sub Ek” — All is One. He taught us to “love everyone, serve everyone, remember God, and tell the truth.” Strongly connected to Hanuman, Maharaj-ji taught in a non-traditional way that reflected the bhakti path of the heart. Here is the essence of his remarkable life and teachings Dr. Richard Alpert, a former Harvard professor became the much-beloved spiritual teacher Baba Ram Das.
