Sinopse

THE following pages are derived from "The Book of the Golden Precepts," one of the works put into the hands of mystic students in the East. The knowledge of them is obligatory in that school, the teachings of which are accepted by many Theosophists. Therefore, as I know many of these Precepts by heart, the work of translating has been relatively an easy task for me.

The Book of the Golden Precepts — some of which are pre-Buddhistic while others belong to a later date — contains about ninety distinct little treatises. Of these I learnt thirty-nine by heart, years ago. To translate the rest, I should have to resort to notes scattered among a too large number of papers and memoranda collected for the last twenty years and never put in order, to make of it by any means an easy task. Nor could they be all translated and given to a world too selfish and too much attached to objects of sense to be in any way prepared to receive such exalted ethics in the right spirit. For, unless a man perseveres seriously in the pursuit of self-knowledge, he will never lend a willing ear to advice of this nature.

    This audiobook narrated by John Telfer introduces listeners to Jung's groundbreaking ideas about synchronicity
    
    C. G. Jung was intrigued from early in his career with coincidences, especially those surprising juxtapositions that scientific rationality could not adequately explain. He discussed these ideas with Albert Einstein before World War I but first used the term "synchronicity" in a 1930 lecture, in reference to the unusual psychological insights generated from consulting the I Ching. A long correspondence and friendship with the Nobel Prize–winning physicist Wolfgang Pauli stimulated a final, mature statement of Jung's thinking on synchronicity, originally published in 1952 and reproduced here. Together with a wealth of historical and contemporary material, this essay describes an astrological experiment Jung conducted to test his theory. Synchronicity reveals the full extent of Jung's research into a wide range of psychic phenomena.

    Modernising Irish Government presents the major historical turning points in the development of Irish public services with a particular focus on the civil service, covering the mid-nineteenth-century reforms, the foundations of the State and the Lemass-Whittaker economic initiative. It introduces the Strategic Management Initiative, its origins and its impact, discussed in terms of efficiency, responsibility and democracy.
    Authors Neil Collins, Terry Cradden and Patrick Butler examine the current, key issues within the Civil Service, including the contentious issue of decentralisation. Providing reviews of the institutional framework for regulating monopolies in such sectors as telecommunications, aviation and retail competition, they present a critique of the new kinds of relationships between government and the people by reviewing Social Partnership, the Citizen Charters of government departments and other similar instruments.
    This textbook at once examines the scale, scope and structure of the delivery of services to the public and their relationship to the civil service, government departments, commercial semi-state companies and other public bodies, while identifying a number of significant failures in service delivery in detail and offering an analysis for their reasons.

    The Holy Roman Empire - A...

    The Holy Roman Empire traces its origins to a time of shifting power dynamics, spiritual authority, and the enduring legacy of Rome. It was neither wholly holy, Roman, nor an empire in the traditional sense, but it stood as a significant political and spiritual entity in European history for nearly a millennium. The story begins with the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 CE, which left a power vacuum in Europe. Centuries later, Charlemagne, King of the Franks, would revive the idea of a Roman imperium in the West. In the year 800, Pope Leo III crowned Charlemagne as Emperor of the Romans, symbolically linking his rule to the legacy of ancient Rome and establishing a precedent for divine sanction of imperial authority. 
    While Charlemagne’s empire did not last beyond his heirs, his imperial title endured in memory and ambition. The true foundations of the Holy Roman Empire, however, are often credited to Otto I, Duke of Saxony, who became King of East Francia in 936. Through military successes and strong alliances with the Church, Otto consolidated his power. In 962, he was crowned Emperor by Pope John XII, an act widely regarded as the formal beginning of the Holy Roman Empire. Otto’s coronation re-established the notion of a Christian emperor in the West and initiated a tradition that would persist for centuries. 
    This early period also marked the beginning of what would become a recurring struggle between secular rulers and the papacy for supremacy. The Investiture Controversy, though it would fully erupt later, had its roots in the growing tensions between emperors who believed they had the right to appoint bishops and popes who insisted on spiritual independence. This rivalry between church and state would shape the development of the empire’s political structure, often blurring the lines between religious and secular authority.
