Synopsis

In his seminal work, "Report on State of the Colony of New South Wales," John Thomas Bigge provides a meticulous examination of the early colonial experience in Australia during the early 19th century. Written in a clear and authoritative style, the report combines empirical observation with statistical analysis, portraying the socio-economic conditions, governance, and potential of New South Wales. This extensive document served as a critical resource for understanding the challenges and opportunities present in this fledgling colony, situating it within the broader context of British imperial expansion and colonial policy reform. John Thomas Bigge was commissioned by the British government in 1825 to investigate the conditions in New South Wales and report on its administration and land usage. His background in law and finance, coupled with his experience in colonial issues, positioned him uniquely to deliver a thorough account. Bigge's findings not only highlight the complexities of colonial management but also reflect his own views on land reform and social order, rooted in Enlightenment ideals of progress and rational governance. This book is essential reading for historians, political scientists, and anyone interested in the nuances of colonial studies. Bigge's insights provide a foundational understanding of New South Wales' development, making this report indispensable for comprehending the dynamics of British colonialism and its lasting impact on Australian society.

    Over the last few years, I have spent considerable time deepening my spiritual quotient. It all started in 2013 when I took up Vipassana meditation and started practicing seriously, and later developed an interest in reciting certain mantras. 
    ​​I have titled it "UnSexy Spirituality". The reason for this title is pretty straightforward, I am sharing insights into the core concepts of Sanatana Dharma (Indian Spirituality) without any hype. The intent is to share the insights I have gained from my journey thus far. 
    You will find many books on the shelf that mix mysticism with Indian spirituality, my attempt is to present Indian spiritual concepts as is without mysticism and hence the play of the word Unsexy. 
    The Audiobook is thoughtfully designed for people to “Listen”; and “Contemplate”. The process of repeat listening and then contemplating the concepts mentioned in the audiobook is the key to fully digesting these concepts. It allows seekers to find clarity as well as uplift themselves to higher awareness levels. 
    I have compiled this wisdom into 14 chapters that simplify the core concepts which have kept me as well as other Indians and many westerners confused.

    A collection of the most influential speeches by Marcus Tullius Cicero, Rome’s greatest orator and statesman, The Orations of Cicero showcases his rhetorical brilliance, political principles, and defense of the Roman Republic. Spanning legal arguments, public denunciations, and philosophical reflections, these speeches reveal Cicero’s efforts to uphold justice, combat corruption, and resist the rise of autocracy—most notably in his fierce opposition to Mark Antony in the Philippics . Written with eloquence and moral conviction, Cicero’s orations remain foundational texts in the study of rhetoric, law, and classical political thought. They offer invaluable insight into the turbulent final years of the Roman Republic and the mind of a man who believed deeply in the power of words to shape history, preserve liberty, and defend the rule of law.

    James Hillman is the father of Archetypal Psychology. This rare program focuses on Education, Imagination and Myth with James Hillman. 
     
    The emergence of C.G. Jung’s Red Book from years of storage in a Swiss vault has re-kindled interest in active imagination. This method of self-exploration involves actively engaging one’s own imagination in dialogue, through writing, art, or the spoken word. 
     
    In this 2.5 -hour streaming video program, James Hillman —noted author, psychologist, and the first Director of Studies at the Jung Institute in Zurich — introduces the method and delves deeply into the therapeutic value it offers in an increasingly noisy and demanding world. 
     
    Hillman considers the history and theory of active imagination in Jung, its relationship to making art, and offers examples for scrutiny and discussion. He discusses the fear of inviting demons and opening wounds, and addresses the difference between the voices of inner figures and auditory hallucinations. 
     
    The major re-examination of Jung’s original ideas and inspiration doesn’t stop there, though. Hillman goes on to examine the role of imagination in contemporary culture, and whether imagination itself might need re-imagining. 
     
    Hillman’s seminar was taped December 9, 2009, in California.
