Sinopse

Ritual Foundations explores the crucial role of ancient rituals in shaping belief systems and social structures. It examines how seemingly arbitrary actions evolved into formalized practices that defined communities and transmitted cultural knowledge. Ancient rituals weren't static decrees, but dynamic systems, adapting to necessity, social interactions, and cognitive processes. For instance, the book investigates how simple, repeated actions in early agricultural societies transformed into symbolic ceremonies.

 
The book progresses methodically, starting with core concepts of ritual theory and analysis methodologies. It then explores the genesis of rituals, illustrating their evolution from simple actions to formal ceremonies. Later chapters detail ritual's role in structuring social life, reinforcing hierarchies, and shaping personal and communal identity, using examples from Mesopotamia and Egypt.

 
Finally, the book analyzes how rituals adapted to changing conditions, offering insights into the values, anxieties, and worldviews of ancient civilizations.

    Raul Baez was born and raised in the Bronx, New York. His early childhood consisted of massive traumatic experiences in a chaotic and dysfunctional family. At the age of thirteen, he dropped out of seventh grade and soon after embarked on twenty-six years of drug abuse. The addiction led to multiple incarcerations for a total of twenty-three years. Attempting to commit “suicide by cop” in a shootout with two NYPD police officers, he survived a barrage of bullets—thirty-two shots. In total, Raul had six near-death experiences. As a result of these events he faced over two hundred years in prison. He struggled with homelessness, depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. For all intents and purposes he should be dead or in prison for the rest of his life! 
    Raul unequivocally and unambiguously attributes his powerful transformation to his relationship with God. With a renewed mind, he was able to eradicate the values and belief system that subjugated him for decades. He eventually earned an associate’s degree in real estate appraisal, a bachelor’s degree in personal finance to better understand how money really works, and a master’s degree in business. He started a Sole Proprietorship, an S-CORP, and a non-profit which are the genesis of Set Your Thoughts Free. He is fully passionate about his mission to equip individuals transitioning from prison with biblical principles, character development, and financial literacy. He has developed his program with various youth organizations, high schools, and multiple prisons in New York State and New England.

    “That’s right…send another man money, then thank him for the opportunity. It feels good, doesn’t it? It feels natural.” 
    My life is spiraling out of control. I sent money to a guy on social media as an experiment, but it triggered something in my brain. 
    Each night after work, I sit in the dark while he “drains” me. My eyes glaze over as he siphons away the money I’ve worked so hard to save. Each time I hit send, I feel his hooks digging deeper into my mind. 
    We’ve agreed to meet in person. I’m scared—I’m worried he’ll bond me to him, pulling me into a universe I’ll never be able to escape. 
    But that’s exactly what I want. I need to commit to an alpha male.

    Have you ever wondered why some people have a "golden touch", while others are constantly haunted by bad luck? If you count yourself in the first category, congratulations! You're already adept at creating conscious manifestations. In this case, the techniques in this Manifestation Book will help you fulfill (even) greater desires. Often, however, reality unfolds differently: You struggle and invest incredible effort to achieve your goals. But just when things appear to be improving, the next defeat, obstacle, or setback emerges. It feels like for every two steps forward, you're thrown three steps back. 
    Author & Master of Manifestation, Neville Goddard, distilled the Law of Assumption (often regarded as the true Law of Attraction) and the Hermetic Laws to their core principles, achieving unparalleled success in manifesting. This success was not just personal but also extended to the thousands of students who mastered the art of manifestation through his teachings. Among his apprentices was Elmer O. Locker Jr. Elmer's grandson, David, has further enriched this Manifestation Book with many of his own experiences in manifestation. If you wish to harness the power of your consciousness (conscious and subconscious mind) to realize your desires, don't hesitate. Dive into the techniques & instructions provided in this book for manifesting.

    We will all be patients sooner or later. And when we go to the doctor, when we're hurting, we tend to think in terms of cause and condemnation. We often look for relief not only from physical symptoms but also from our self-blame. We want from our doctors kindness under any of its many names: empathy, caring, compassion, humanity. We look for safety and forgiveness. But we forget that doctors, too, are often in need of forgiveness—from their patients and from themselves. No doctor enters the medical profession expecting to be unkind or to make mistakes, but because of the complexity of our current medical system and because doctors are human, they often find themselves acting much less kindly than they would like to. Drawing on his work as a primary care physician and a behavioral scientist, Michael Stein artfully examines the often conflicting goals of patients and their doctors. In those differences, Stein recognizes that kindness should not be a patient’s forbidden or unrealistic expectation. This book leaves us with new knowledge of and insights into what we might hope for, and what might go wrong, or right, in the most intimate clinical moments.
