  Decolonization Movements - The...

  Decolonization refers to the process through which colonies gained independence from colonial powers, transitioning from subjugation to self-rule. This process unfolded across the globe, but particularly after the end of World War II, when the political, economic, and social landscapes of the world were rapidly changing. Decolonization was not merely a political transition; it also involved profound shifts in cultural, economic, and social structures. It marked the end of European empires, the dismantling of colonial systems, and the establishment of new nation-states. The effects of decolonization were not only seen in the immediate transfer of power but also in the long-lasting impacts on national identity, social cohesion, and global politics. 
  Historically, colonialism began in the 15th century as European powers, driven by the desire for resources, land, and global dominance, began to expand across the world. Colonies were established in Africa, Asia, the Middle East, and the Americas, often resulting in the exploitation and oppression of indigenous populations. Colonialism shaped the economies and cultures of colonized countries, as the colonial powers imposed their own systems of governance, language, and religion. 
  World War II played a significant role in the rise of decolonization movements. The war weakened the colonial powers, both economically and militarily, while at the same time igniting new ideas about self-determination and sovereignty. The brutal realities of war exposed the contradictions of imperialism, and the idea of a free and independent world began to gain ground. Additionally, the United Nations (UN) emerged after the war as an international body that championed the principles of self-determination and human rights, further encouraging movements for independence.

  Conversations with Heaven on Earth

  And so we were wanting to discuss the significance of the new book. We even know you are questioning the title of this, it wasn't about opening up your mindset, it was about understanding the significance of the written text, once again, and how that can be so profound, and absorption of the information is easier to digest. We see that the voice and the words through the videos with the sound can almost put people into a hypnotic state themselves, where they are not even able to consciously absorb and follow the information. They find that they have to keep listening to the sessions many times because they just go into a very relaxed trance state themselves where they're getting their own upgrades and epiphanies and senses of their own higher versions of selves and other multi-dimensional aspects of self. 
  This is going to be a profound book that we view this as, because this is the teachings of Jesus. And while we were giving you strong senses that we did not want you to abuse or label the name of him because of the misperceptions of who he is, and who he stands for; we see many people reluctant to be interested in what that man had to say, because they have still got a firm attachment to him being a part of a religion that may have been part of their inner childhood trauma or work, not just this lifetime. We know many who are still traumatized by being killed for a religion, either because they did not comply or they were trying to share other perspectives of religion. So there is much to be said about what religion has done to humanity. And of course, it's human free-will choices. But the truth has almost been so hidden from humanity that the truth has been so watered down and twisted with opinions. It's been a total manipulation for many. This is Earth's history. We cannot pretend it has not been as such.

  In Search of Madness - A...

  Who is 'Mad'? Who is Not? And Who Decides?
  In this fascinating new exploration of mental illness, Professor Brendan Kelly examines 'madness' in history and how we have responded to it over the centuries.
  We travel from the psychiatric institutions of modern India to scientific studies of the brain in Victorian England. We discover the beginnings of formal asylum care and witness the experimental therapies of the cavernous psychiatric hospitals of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries in Ireland, England, Belgium, Italy, Germany and the United States.
  Covering lobotomy and the Nazis' Aktion T4 campaign, as well as Freud, psychoanalysis, cognitive behavioural therapy and neuroscience, In Search of Madness examines the shift in recent times from 'psychobabble' to 'neurobabble'.
  This is an all encompassing history of one of the most basic fears to haunt the human psyche – madness – and it concludes with a passionate manifesto for change: four proposals to make mental health services more effective, accessible and just.
