  Living With OCD - How to Stop...

  Listen, your mind isn't broken - it's just doing what minds do when they get stuck in rigid, irrational thinking patterns. After decades of clinical practice, I've seen how OCD operates: it's not some mysterious force, but a pattern of demanding absolute certainty in an uncertain world. 
  This book cuts through the mystification and gets to what works: learning to accept uncertainty, challenging perfectionist demands, and building tolerance for discomfort. No sugar-coating, no magical thinking - just evidence-based techniques for reducing your suffering. 
  You'll learn to spot the difference between healthy concerns and obsessive thinking, develop more flexible responses to triggering situations, and most importantly, stop fighting with your own thoughts. Because here's the reality: the more you desperately try to control your thoughts, the more they control you. 
  Let's get to work on transforming your relationship with uncertainty. It won't always be comfortable, but neither is living under OCD's thumb.

  Journey of Insight Meditation -...

  This is an audiobook of the classic title Journey of Insight Meditation by Eric Lerner, narrated by Jonathan Nelson.
   
  --------------------------------
   
  "I set out to study and practice Vipassana meditation in India fifty years ago. Then, as now, I characterized myself as both a spiritual seeker and a writer. During the six months that I sojourned in meditation centers and monasteries, observing the strict rules of retreat, I nevertheless spent several hours a day feverishly filling notebooks by lamplight with tightly packed script legible only to me, recording my internal experiences.
   
  I wanted to tell a story, because I am by nature a story teller, but on my return to America I was a bit disconcerted to find that my detailed accounts read like data recorded by a naturalist hidden in the bush observing the behavior of a strange creature in the wild, information that would have little interest to anyone except an extreme specialist in the field.
   
  Up until then my unpublished works were lightly fictionalized autobiographical accounts of my young life, but fiction wouldn’t be accurate enough to tell this tale. Instead, I created a protagonist, a bit of a hero, who was both me and not me, Eric Lerner. I re-created the external world of people and teachers and places he’d encountered, as well as ideas and beliefs adopted and discarded. In other words, a setting and a plot. All of it was real, or real enough, the product of memory and interpretation, a new veracity. A memoir."

  Death Has Very Little Meaning -...

  Jiddu Krishnamurti

  Death has very little meaning - 17 April 1980 
  • Is there a totally different way of approaching the whole turmoil of life? 
  • As long as the centre is creating darkness, and thought is operating in that dark 
  ness, there must be disorder, there must be everything as society now is. To 
  move away from that you must have insight. 
  • Insight can only come about when there is a flash which abolishes not only the 
  darkness but the creator of darkness. 
  • Human beings have been acting according to one pattern, responding to 
  hatred by hatred and so on. There are those few, perhaps many, who did not. 
  Why has this division taken place? 
  • The man who is living in darkness can move away at any time to the other. That 
  is the point: at any time. 
  • What happens to a mind that has no conflict?

  Laughter in Ancient Rome - on...

  Mary Beard

  What made the Romans laugh? Was ancient Rome a carnival, filled with practical jokes and hearty chuckles? Or was it a carefully regulated culture in which the uncontrollable excess of laughter was a force to fear—a world of wit, irony, and knowing smiles? How did Romans make sense of laughter? What role did it play in the world of the law courts, the imperial palace, or the spectacles of the arena? 
   
   
   
  Laughter in Ancient Rome explores one of the most intriguing, but also trickiest, of historical subjects. Drawing on a wide range of Roman writing—from essays on rhetoric to a surviving Roman joke book—Mary Beard tracks down the giggles, smirks, and guffaws of the ancient Romans themselves. From ancient "monkey business" to the role of a chuckle in a culture of tyranny, she explores Roman humor from the hilarious, to the momentous, to the surprising. But she also reflects on even bigger historical questions. What kind of history of laughter can we possibly tell? Can we ever really "get" the Romans' jokes?
