Pragmatism

William James

In this book, James argues that the most important criterion for evaluating ideas and beliefs is their practical usefulness in real-life situations, rather than their abstract truth or correspondence to reality. James introduces the concept of "pragmatism," which he defines as a method of approaching philosophical questions by examining their practical consequences. He argues that truth is not an absolute and fixed entity, but rather a relative and changing one that is determined by the practical outcomes of our beliefs and actions. Read in English, unabridged.

The Shocking Truth about Online...

Zoey Fraisers

The rise of online education has been nothing short of revolutionary. Once considered an alternative to traditional schooling, it has now become a dominant force in the academic world. Institutions worldwide have embraced digital learning platforms, promising accessibility, affordability, and convenience. Students can earn degrees from prestigious universities without ever stepping into a classroom, and working professionals can upskill at their own pace. The appeal is undeniable, but beneath the surface, there are unsettling truths that often go unnoticed.
This book seeks to uncover the realities of online education—both its promises and its pitfalls. While it has opened doors for many, it has also introduced challenges that institutions and students alike struggle to address. The marketing around digital learning often highlights its flexibility and cost-effectiveness, but it rarely delves into issues such as hidden expenses, declining academic quality, and the mental health impact of isolated learning. Many students enroll in online programs believing they are receiving the same level of education as their on-campus counterparts, only to discover that the experience falls short of their expectations.
The influence of big tech companies has further complicated the landscape. These corporations play a major role in shaping the future of education, often prioritizing profits over student outcomes. From data privacy concerns to the rise of artificial intelligence in grading and instruction, online learning has become as much about business as it is about education. Meanwhile, employers remain skeptical about online degrees, leaving graduates questioning the true value of their qualifications.

The Six Gosvami's Of Vrndavana -...

B.H. Mangalniloy Maharaj

The Six Goswamis of Vrindavan was a group of scholars and devotees who lived in Vrindavan during the 16th century. The group consisted of Rupa Goswami, Sanatana Goswami, Jiva Goswami, Gopal Bhatta Goswami, Raghunatha Bhatta Goswami, and Raghunatha Dasa Goswami. They were instrumental in the development of the Gaudiya Vaishnavism tradition and the spread of the Bhakti yoga movement. They were known for their scholarship, devotion, and austere lifestyle, and were revered by the people of Vrindavan and beyond. 
 
The Six Goswamis of Vrindavan left a lasting impact on the development of Hinduism, particularly the Gaudiya Vaishnavism tradition. They wrote extensively on the philosophy, theology, and practices of Bhakti, and their works continue to be studied and revered by scholars and devotees alike. Their teachings emphasized the importance of devotion to Krishna as the ultimate path to liberation, and their writings provide insight into the practices and rituals of Bhakti, as well as the historical and cultural context of the Bhakti movement. The legacy of the Six Goswamis of Vrindavan continues to inspire and guide those who seek a deeper understanding of the path of devotion. 
 
With selections from The Yoga Library. Narrated by Emmy-nominated actor and lifelong yogi Sripad Jagannatha Das

My life shattered when I met the cocky football quarterback. 
He’s broken my mind…everything is spiraling out of control.

He knows I’m hooked now. He knows how to extract everything I own. 
He’s even infiltrated my business. I was the CEO, but now he’s making the decisions. 
I worry about the consequences…but this feels too good to stop.
