Sinopse

'The Books of Chinese Wisdom' presents a rich tapestry of philosophical thought and strategic insights that have shaped not only Eastern philosophy but also imparted wisdom to the global intellect. The anthology spans an array of literary styles, from the aphoristic pearls of Confucian ethics to the stratagems of Sun Tzu's military genius, all woven into the narrative fabric of ancient Chinese discourse. The collection, enhanced by both attributed and anonymous works, represents a spectrum of historical epochs, each piece resonating with the timeless appeal of understanding life's complexities. Notable are the philosophical treatises and the articulate translations that bring forth the subtleties of Eastern wisdom to the Western mind. The compendium benefits immensely from the diverse backgrounds of its authors and editors, each a luminary in their respective realms—be it philosophy, military strategy, or sinology. These contributors collectively illuminate the thematic cores of morality, governance, and strategy, aligning with Confucian and Taoist thought streams, as well as practical military philosophies. The anthology serves as a confluence where historical narratives and cultural dialogs meld, providing a comprehensive understanding of ancient Chinese ideologies and their persistent relevance in contemporary discourse. 'The Books of Chinese Wisdom' is an essential read for scholars, strategists, and anyone intrigued by the profundity of ancient Chinese culture. It offers a unique opportunity to explore diverse philosophical landscapes through a single, cohesive volume. The collection not only educates but also enriches one's perspective, encouraging a deep engagement with ideas that have sustained over millennia. This anthology promises to be a cornerstone for those who wish to delve into the depths of Eastern thought and its influence on universal wisdom.

    This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
     
    This audiobook delves into the enigmatic world of the Illuminati and secret societies, unveiling their history and influence over global affairs. The Illuminati, real and fictional, are portrayed as elusive elites shaping our world. Their origin dates back to the late 1700s with the Bavarian Illuminati, founded by Adam Weishaupt and guided by the enigmatic 'Father of Illumination'. Since then, numerous groups have claimed Illuminati status, their links to Weishaupt's vision uncertain. These legends have fostered a culture of secrecy and fear, intertwining conspiracies of unimaginable power with Illuminati symbolism. Celebrities, musicians, and politicians have been implicated in this narrative, but does the Illuminati truly wield world control? 
     
    This audiobook investigates the historical ties between the Illuminati and secret societies and their impact on global events. We delve into Weishaupt's legacy and explore potentially nefarious activities within these organisations. The audiobook scrutinizes whether these groups possess the power to dominate the world and, if so, contemplates potential countermeasures. 
     
    Join us on this illuminating journey as we plunge into the shadowy realm of the Illuminati and secret societies that exert influence over our world.

    Embracing Exile - The Case for...

    Jewish people have always wandered. According to their origin story, they wandered from Ur of Chaldees to Canaan, then Egypt, and then back to Canaan. From there, they were exiled to Babylon, where they lived for centuries. They also settled in Persia, Egypt, Morocco, Spain, Italy, Turkey, Poland, Ukraine, England, and the United States, among other places. Diaspora became normal to Jews, and though they may have hoped for a return to their "Promised Land" at the "End of Days," they made sense of their many homes, defending diaspora as the realm where Jewish life could grow and they could fulfill their obligations to God. 
     
     
     
    Embracing Exile analyzes biblical and rabbinic texts, philosophical treatises, studies of Kabbalah, Hasidism, and a multiplicity of modern expressions. It offers revised readings of the Bible's book of Esther, a survey of Talmudic treatments of exile, an in-depth analysis of the thought of the Maharal of Prague, as well as the work of Philip Roth, among other modern authors. David Kraemer shows that Diaspora Jews through the ages insisted that God joined them in their exiles and that, as citizens of the world, Jews could only live throughout the world. The result is a convincing assertion that lament has not been the most common Jewish response to diaspora and that Zionism is not the natural outcome of either Jewish ideology or history.

In this brilliant guide he presents hands-on techniques for managing stress by rewiring our brains to approach potentially difficult situations through a lens of positivity. To do so, Dr. King explores what stress is, where it comes from, and what it does to our bodies and brains.

    This is an audiobook of Bodhi Leaves No. 54 by John Andrew Storey, Rebirth narrated by Christa Michel. The print edition can be found in the Pariyatti Edition of Collected Bodhi Leaves Vol. 2. The eBook of Bodhi Leaves No. 54 can be downloaded from the BPS website.
     
    Excerpt:
     
    There has been a prevailing tendency in science to take a wholly materialistic view of life and the universe. This has perhaps been a natural reaction against the superstitions of past ages which have often masqueraded as religious truth. Happily this extreme reaction is now less apparent than it was, and there now seems to be among scientists a more open-minded approach to life and its phenomena. Parapsychological phenomena, which only a decade ago were not considered to be worthy of serious attention, are now being studied with considerable interest.
     
    ...
     
    The aim of this essay is to review the evidence and examine the arguments for rebirth in an attempt to make a modest contribution to our understanding of the doctrine. We shall see first that the doctrine is very ancient and very widespread. We shall see that it reflects the natural order which from our observations we know to be cyclical. We shall have a brief look at the evidence from the claimed memories of former lives. We shall try to determine the nature of that which is reborn. And finally we shall examine one of the ways by which the process of rebirth may take place. In this way I hope to make our survey comprehensive so that our evaluation can be truly scientific.
