  Jewels From The Indra Net

  These pieces on Eastern methods of inner training and realisation are not intended as theoretical instruction or entertainment. They all point to actual practice in life and hint at deeper practice. 
  The title of the book Jewels from the Indra Net refers to the fabled net of the god Indra of which the strands have a jewel of truth at each junction. The jewels reflect each other so that each one has deeper and deeper meanings in it. 
  The pieces are from a variety of traditions, some of them being based on original translations of little known Sanskrit or Japanese texts. Others come from observation or personal experience and hopefully will reflect to the reader some further gleams from the Indra Net. 
  The fundamental training is mind control and meditation which in the end have to become one pointed. Allusions to them will be found in several places and will be recognised by those who are approaching that level. Some longer pieces have been put at the beginning to give a survey of some main points.

From the psychological depths of Fyodor Dostoevsky's "Notes from Underground" to the existential dilemmas of Søren Kierkegaard's "Fear and Trembling," and the introspective reflections of Friedrich Nietzsche's "Ecce Homo," this collection encompasses a wide range of existentialist voices.Through thought-provoking narratives and philosophical musings, the selected works explore fundamental existential themes such as individuality, freedom, authenticity, despair, and the search for meaning in an uncertain world. Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis" takes readers on a surreal journey through the absurdity of existence.Spanning across different literary styles and historical periods, these works offer readers an immersive experience into the complexities of existentialism. They challenge conventional norms, question the nature of reality, and invite readers to grapple with existential questions that lie at the core of human existence. "Existentialism: Philosophical and Literary Works" serves as a valuable resource for students, scholars, and enthusiasts seeking a comprehensive understanding of existentialist philosophy and its interplay with literature. It provides a nuanced exploration of existentialism's key ideas through diverse voices, encouraging readers to engage with the philosophical and existential dilemmas that shape our understanding of self, society, and the human condition.Contents:Fyodor Dostoevsky.

  Imperial Germany’s Colonization...

  Before the mid-19th century, European intervention in much of tropical Africa was extremely difficult because of the disease gradient. The combination of malaria and yellow fever commonly killed off half of European troops stationed in West Africa each year. It was the reverse of the conquest of the Americas, where introduced diseases wiped out 50 million indigenous Americans, opening the land to settlement and greatly reducing the ability to resist. This was much less of a problem in temperate southern Africa, accounting for the Dutch being able to set up a colony there in the 17th century. 
  The political situation was also important. Germany did not exist as a nation until 1871, when the German Empire was declared, following the decisive defeat of France in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. Germany united into a single nation under the former king of Prussia, who became kaiser (meaning emperor). Previously, Germany had been a linguistic and cultural region fragmented into a welter of kingdoms, dukedoms, margraviates, bishoprics, and free cities. 
  The German Empire would prove to be the most short-lived of all, because, along with the Russian and Ottoman Empires, it did not survive World War I. In 1919, Germany lost all of its African colonies, which then accrued as League of Nations mandated territories either to France or Britain. The mandate over German South West Africa, the future Namibia, was placed under British control by proxy, and its day-to-day administration was handled from South Africa. Ultimately, South Africa absorbed South West Africa as a virtual province and resisted pressure to cede authority to the United Nations for decades. However, the contest between Germany and Britain on the African continent during the late 19th century would also create the conditions that led to the North Africa Campaign in World War II.
