Critique of Practical Reason (Kritik der praktischen Vernunft)

Immanuel Kant

Editorial: DigiCat

Sinopsis

Immanuel Kant's "Critique of Practical Reason" serves as a foundational text in moral philosophy, elucidating his pivotal concepts of duty, moral law, and autonomy. Written in a rigorous and systematic style, this work extends the exploration initiated in his earlier "Critique of Pure Reason," bridging theoretical understanding with practical application. Kant articulates the necessity of a universal moral law grounded in reason, arguing for a categorical imperative that compels individuals to act according to maxims that could be legislated as universal law. Through meticulous analysis and dense argumentation, Kant's literary form reflects Enlightenment ideals, fostering a discourse that elevates rationality as the essence of ethical principles. Immanuel Kant, a luminary of the Enlightenment, constructed his moral philosophy during a period rife with metaphysical speculation and burgeoning empirical science. His academic journey at the University of Königsberg was marked by intellectual rigor and an unwavering commitment to reason, which propelled him to question the nature of human freedom and moral accountability. The "Critique of Practical Reason" not only builds upon his critical philosophy but also resonates with his life experiences in a rapidly changing world, where the quest for moral certainty became increasingly vital. I highly recommend "Critique of Practical Reason" to readers seeking a profound engagement with ethical reasoning and the role of human agency. Kant's work challenges us to reconsider our moral responsibilities within the frameworks of rationality and autonomy, making it essential for students of philosophy and anyone invested in understanding the principles underpinning human behavior. His arguments continue to influence contemporary debates in ethics, reinforcing the timelessness of his insights and their applicability to modern moral dilemmas.

Inner Revolution Poetry - From...

Yashomatinandana Dasa

The beauty of poetry is also practical. It is said in the Vedic scripture that to be a poet is one of the divine qualities possessed by devotees of the Lord. Like an ornament it enhances the character of a person, if he is using this poetry not for own sense gratification, but for glorification of the Supreme Person. That is the only work of a poet, namely to glorify the all-attractive person, literally Kṛṣṇa.
Words that do not glorify the All-attractive Person, Kṛṣṇa, are considered by saintly persons to be like places of pilgrimage for crows. Swan-like devotees who are actually residents of the kingdom of God do not derive any pleasure there. Thus, I follow in the footsteps of my spiritual teachers who were all expert poets and writers.
2016, as a believer and traveler I came to win back faith. Finding shelter with the wisdom texts of the Vedas, a doorway to self-realisation was opened. Self-realisation is nothing cheap, but the sole purpose of human existence. This human form of life is essentially meant for inquiring about the Absolute Truth.
When this mystical door opened, I had insight into spiritual truth, substantial, enlightened and blissful. In a state of meditation this spiritual drop touched my heart and I tried to get hold of it. Expressing my experiences in words of poetry helped to channel these spiritual visions and insights.
Once I sat on the Pacific Ocean and meditated. A vast consciousness surrounded me and I felt as if I was one with that vast consciousness. Later, I came back to an individual consciousness. I would read about this oneness experience, warned that this is māyā, illusion. In retrospect, this path of illusion (Mayavada) was enlightened by the spiritual master (Prabhupāda) who felt compassion with this delusioned seeker.

Battle of Myriokephalon The: The...

Editors Charles River

The Byzantine Empire existed for over a thousand years, with a history spanning from the division of the Roman Empire in 395 until the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople in 1453. It was formed from the previous Eastern Roman Empire, and during its long existence, the Byzantine inhabitants were very proud to call themselves Romans.
However, many things changed during the long lifespan of the Byzantine Empire, starting with its Hellenization in the 6th century. The use of the Latin language diminished and Greek took its place, while the typical Roman culture gave way to a more Hellenistic one. The Hellenization of Byzantium was detrimental to the relationship with the Holy Roman Empire, and the Christian world from that point would be split in two. The subsequent strengthening of the Orthodox Church caused many civil wars and conflicts to arise during the centuries, which shattered and reshaped the territory time after time. By the end of the Byzantine Empire’s existence, the old age had weakened both the state and church, making it an easy target for invading forces.
The most notable invaders were the the Turkish-speaking Seljuks, led through a series of battles by Kutalmishouglu Suleiman, who supported different usurpers against the Byzantine emperor. The expansion of the Seljuks was so successful that when Suleiman died, he had put all of Bithynia under his control as well as several important harbor towns along the shores on the Asian side of Bosphorus. With that accomplishment, he had managed to separate the Byzantines living in Anatolia from their emperor in Constantinople. This immediately weakened the unity of the Byzantine Empire.

How to Do the Right Thing - An...

Seneca, Robert A. Kaster

How ancient Stoicism can help teach us to treat others—and ourselves—more fairly and mercifully 
 
 
 
There are times when we've all felt that we haven't been treated as we deserve—that we've been misjudged, shortchanged, or given a raw deal. And, at one time or another, other people have probably felt that we've treated them just as unfairly. How to Do the Right Thing draws on the principles of ancient Stoicism as articulated by the Roman statesman and philosopher Seneca to help listeners better navigate one of the most important practical questions of daily life—how to do right by others. 
 
 
 
Starting from the virtue of magnanimity—the opposite of small-mindedness—How to Do the Right Thing draws together lessons from Seneca's writings that stress the importance of calm and clear thinking, of judging oneself fairly before judging others, and of cutting people slack, with a bias toward mercy—all delivered in crisp and lively new translations.
