Beschreibung

Step into the compelling narrative that delves into the tapestry of the Kennedy dynasty, unraveling their ascent to unprecedented national and global eminence. "Power & Ambition: The Kennedy Family and the Tragedy of an American Dynasty" is a meticulously researched book that vividly portrays ambition, triumph, and tragedy. This book meticulously traces the Kennedy family's journey from humble Irish roots to the corridors of power. Anchored by Joseph P. Kennedy's unyielding ambition to shield his kin from the turbulent tides of discrimination, this work explores how his aspirations birthed a legacy that reshaped American history. Among their accomplishments, however, were a series of sad tragedies, ranging from whispered rumors of bootlegging to the heartbreaking threat of mental infirmity, from terrifying plane disasters to haunting echoes of assassinations. This book unravels the catastrophe threads that seemed to follow the Kennedys, weaving together historical, sociological, and psychological insights to untangle the enigmatic Kennedy "curse."

    When roughly classed, the myths and legends generally show two points of departure for migrations of the human race, as these were rendered in the stellar and solar mythology. One is from the summit of the celestial mount, the other from the hollow underworld beneath the mount or inside the earth. The races that descended from the mount were people of the pole whose starting-point in reckoning time was from one or other station of the pole-star, determinable by its type, whether as the tree, the rock, or other image of a first point of departure. Those who ascended from the nether-world were of the solar race who came into existence with the sun as it is represented in the legendary lore… –from “The Exodus from Egypt and the Desert of Amenta” It goes unappreciated by modern Egyptologists, but it is embraced by those who savor the concept of a “hidden history” of humanity, and those who approach all human knowledge from the perspective of the esoteric. Gerard Massey’s massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World–first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar–redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs

You will be only half of what you are. The awakened one is one that loves all. And that is to love the all inside of yourself. And that is one who flies and falls, goes left and right, up and down, heavy and light, dark and light. One that knows that they are the whole palette but understands equally that within that palette that are human.""See those that appear ignorant clearly by seeing their fear. For when you see their fear you will not see them as other, you will not see them as separate and ignorant, you will see them as beings in fear. And, when you understand they are in fear, and that they are not being driven by some nefarious force of darkness, then you will see that they are just loving beings in fear and you will be able to love them—then you will discover the compassion, the compassion of the awakened one,"
