  The Age of Enlightened Despots -...

  The Age of Enlightened Despotism was a period in European history during the 18th century when absolute monarchs, inspired by the ideas of the Enlightenment, sought to combine their centralized power with reforms aimed at improving the welfare of their subjects. These rulers, often referred to as "enlightened despots," were influenced by the rationalist philosophy that emphasized reason, science, and progress. However, they did not embrace the democratic principles of the Enlightenment, opting instead to preserve their absolute authority while implementing select reforms to improve governance, society, and the economy. 
  At the heart of enlightened despotism was the belief that monarchs could act as benevolent rulers who used their absolute power to guide their countries towards prosperity and progress. These monarchs saw themselves as enlightened figures, tasked with leading their nations in line with the principles of the Enlightenment but without relinquishing control over the state. In contrast to traditional autocratic rulers, enlightened despots were often receptive to new ideas about governance, education, legal systems, and the treatment of their subjects. They embraced reforms that were designed to modernize their societies, often implementing policies that reflected Enlightenment thinkers such as Voltaire, Montesquieu, and Rousseau. 
  Frederick the Great of Prussia, Catherine the Great of Russia, and Joseph II of Austria were the most prominent examples of enlightened despots. Each of these rulers used their power to implement a range of reforms. Frederick, for instance, was known for his military prowess and his efforts to modernize the Prussian state, introducing reforms that improved the legal system, promoted education, and supported religious tolerance.

  In their new book, “Because It’s Just And Right: The Untold Back-Story of the US Recognition of Jerusalem as the Capital of Israel and Moving the US Embassy to Jerusalem", Leonard Grunstein and Farley Weiss share the riveting political drama of how the Jerusalem Embassy Act of 1995 was first promulgated by Senator Jon Kyl, negotiated and then passed, on a bipartisan basis, by an overwhelming majority of Congress. It also describes the arduous process for over two decades that led to its finally being implemented. The Bible, Jewish History, International and US Law, as well as legal precedents are brought to life in a way that is both enlightening and entertaining. 
  This book is a must read for anyone seeking to understand the significance of this historic event and it's impact on US-Israel relations. 
  David Friedman, US Ambassador to Israel from 2017-2021, also weighs in on the book, calling it “essential reading for a complete understanding of why Jerusalem is, and must always remain, the undivided, eternal capital of the Jewish State.” 
  Senator Joe Lieberman, one of the key players in enabling bipartisan support for the Act, noted: “In this book, Farley Weiss and Len Grunstein tell the dramatic story of how the United States Congress enacted legislation to move our Embassy in Israel to Jerusalem in 1995, and how twenty-three years later in 2018, it was finally moved there because, as the book’s title says, it was “Just and Right.” 
  Other testimonials include those by Governor Mike Huckabee and Professor Alan Dershowitz. Senator John Kyl provided a Foreword for the book.

  A guide to your spiritual journey of transformation using the Enneagram.   “The Enneagram of the Soul invites us on a journey of profound self-discovery.” —from the foreword by Russ Hudson, bestselling coauthor of The Wisdom of the Enneagram  The Enneagram of the Soul is inspired by over two decades of inner and outer work with the Enneagram by leading expert Nhien Vuong. Nhien provides a path to wholeness for the self, enabling the reader to be steered gently yet firmly away from the trap of solely identifying with their personality type, so they can live more fully from their divine nature.   This book is divided into two parts. Part 1 shares nine Enneagram-informed principles that guide one’s journey of transformation using the Enneagram, nine contemplative practices to propel and support the transformational process, and nine prayers to lend heart to the journey. Part 2 offers forty activations, which consist of very brief questions, reminders, or practices on forty different themes customized for each of the nine Enneagram personality types. When we begin to access the wholeness of all nine Enneagram energies working in concert, we experience a greater sense of inner peace, purpose, and fulfillment.   “An important and uniquely useful contribution to the Enneagram literature in that she provides a pathway for the types, built around practices and principles.” —Beatrice Chestnut, author of The Enneagram Guide to Waking Up
