Elements of metaphysics

E. A. Taylor

Sinopsis

In "Elements of Metaphysics," A. E. Taylor offers a rigorous exploration of the foundational issues in metaphysical thought, skillfully balancing analytical clarity with philosophical depth. The text delves into core themes such as existence, reality, and the nature of the universe, employing a precise, logical style that reflects the philosophical rigor of early 20th-century discourse. Taylor situates his work within the context of contemporary metaphysical debates, engaging with figures like Kant and Hegel while drawing on the ideals of British Idealism to illuminate complex concepts. A. E. Taylor, a prominent scholar in the realm of philosophy, was known for his contributions to both metaphysics and ethics, as well as his influence on the development of modern philosophical thought. His academic journey, marked by an engagement with classical philosophy and a keen interest in the coherence of metaphysical systems, undoubtedly shaped his approach in this work. Taylor's extensive background, combined with his role as a lecturer at the University of Edinburgh, allowed him to synthesize and articulate intricate ideas with remarkable eloquence. This book is highly recommended for anyone seeking a thoughtful and accessible introduction to metaphysical concepts. Whether you are a student of philosophy or a curious reader, Taylor's incisive examination challenges assumptions and invites readers to ponder profound questions about existence and reality.

Henry David Thoreau - A Very...

Lawrence Buell

Henry David Thoreau was a leading figure in the American Transcendentalist movement and the era of US literary emergence, an intellectual with worldwide influence as essayist, social thinker, naturalist-environmentalist, and sage. Thoreau's Walden, an autobiographical narrative of his two-year sojourn in a self-built lakeside cabin, is one of the most widely studied works of American literature. It has generated scores of literary imitations and experiments in back-to-basics living. Thoreau's essay, "Civil Disobedience," is a classic of American political activism and a model for nonviolent reform movements. Thoreau also stands as an icon of modern American environmentalism, the father of American nature writing, a forerunner of modern ecology, and a harbinger of freelance spirituality. 
 
 
 
Thoreau is also a controversial figure. He was an advocate for individual self-sufficiency who never broke away from home, a self-professed mystic now also acclaimed as a pioneer natural and applied scientist, and a seminal theorist of nonviolent protest who defended the most notorious guerrilla fighter of his day. All told, he remains a rather enigmatic figure both despite and because we know so much about him. Lawrence Buell gives due consideration to all these aspects of Thoreau's art and thought, framing key issues and complexities in historical and literary context.

When Dream and Reality Merge...

Omananda

This magical, true and epic story is a wild ride through adventures around the world with explorations of other-dimensional realms and beings. The author’s wisdom gained through decades-long self-experimentations with non-ordinary states of consciousness are integrated in this book that shows how tangible projects such as films and activist movements can readily manifest when we follow our dreams.
In this fascinating story, Omananda describes how he lived with indigenous medicine tribes in Mexico, the Huicholes. These ancient medicine cultures have used psychoactive cacti, like the peyote, to pray in sacred ceremonies. The author spent years making films that, together with the combined effort of passionate people, helped to kick out billion dollar Canadian mining companies from Mexico that were in direct violation of the law and a threat to the indigenous cultures. The German-born author and filmmaker transmits what he has learned about the indigenous ways of life.
In the first two books of this series, readers experienced more travel stories and less contemplative content, but in this third part, channeled information appears in periodic intervals and the author gets more philosophical towards the end of the book where he lists easy-to-practice, non-religious, yet powerful, spiritual methods and exercises for personal transformation.
When Dream and Reality Merge into ONE is the continuation of the author’s transcendental journeys. Character names have been changed to protect the individuals' privacy. Everything else remains authentic to the facts as it was experienced.
