  Your brain was never built for infinite scroll. Mastering Motivation in the Age of Instant Reward explores the real neuroscience behind dopamine, habit formation, and the modern struggle to stay focused in a world of constant stimulation. Cutting through the myths of “detox culture,” this book explains how dopamine actually works — not as a pleasure chemical, but as the engine of curiosity, learning, and perseverance. It offers a clear, practical framework for rewiring reward systems through deliberate effort, anticipation, and balance, helping you regain control over attention, energy, and purpose. Grounded in modern psychology and motivation science, it’s a guide for anyone seeking meaning in an era of endless distraction — not by rejecting pleasure, but by redefining it.

  Learning Happiness - The...

  The Sutra of 42 Chapters is a scripture complied in the first century CE.  Each saying comes from Buddha, but the whole work was a new anthology created especially for introducing Buddhism in a new country. That's why it makes such a good, basic introduction to the world view of Gautam Buddha. It is very simple in its approach, very direct. It is, in essence the whole of Buddha's message, but very simple, not elaborate and very scholarly as other Buddhist scriptures are.
  Osho extracts the kernel of Buddha's profound insight and understanding and presents his everlasting message to the contemporary listener in a manner that is lucid, straightforward and humorous. Far from being just a statue, here Buddha is an amazing human being so far ahead of his time that even now he is only just beginning to be more widely understood.
  In these talks Osho discusses the need for doubt and argument in the spiritual search, the nature of desire and the discipline of non-attachment.
  The talks in this audiobook are a series of original OSHO Talks, titled "The Discipline of Transcendence, Vol.2".

  Kushan Empire The: The History...

  Long before it was known as Afghanistan, and even longer before it acquired its current reputation, Afghanistan’s modern borders were fairly congruent with the ancient country known as Bactria. Bactria was the seat of several different kingdoms during the course of many centuries, but none were as successful as the Kushan Empire, the dominant political entity in Central Asia from the early 2nd century BCE until the early 3rd century CE, during which time the Kushan rulers played a major role in the first iteration of the trade networks known collectively as the Silk Road. The Kushans began as nomadic steppe warriors who eventually grew tired of constantly migrating and subsequently put their skills and experience to use by conquering Bactria and creating a kingdom that was stronger economically than it was militarily. Taking advantage of their location on the Silk Road trade routes, the Kushan kings charged fees and tolls for goods passing through their empire and developed over-land and sea routes that brought goods from China to Rome and vice versa. But silk, textiles, gold, silver, and other commodities were not the only things that entered the Kushan Empire from the East and West; the Kushan Empire was a focal point for the spread of ideas, diplomats, and diseases. Although the Romans and the Chinese never had direct contact, they both had diplomatic relations with the Kushan kings, who proved to be outstanding diplomats. The Kushan Empire eventually became a transit point of people and ideas, where enormous wealth was exchanged alongside early forms of monotheism, such as Zoroastrianism and Buddhism. The Kushan kings recognized these cultural benefits and so practiced a policy of patronizing different religious philosophies and maintaining peaceful relations with other powers along the Silk Roads to keep the flow of goods moving.
