Beschreibung

In "The Story of My Experiments with Truth," Mahatma Gandhi presents a profound narrative that intertwines his personal evolution with his moral philosophy. Written with an intimate voice, the text offers readers insight into Gandhi's life, detailing his struggles with ethical dilemmas, his commitment to non-violence, and his search for spiritual truth. The literary style blends autobiographical reflection with philosophical discourse, setting it within the broader context of early 20th-century Indian nationalism and the struggle for independence. It stands as both a memoir and a manifesto, urging individuals to pursue truth with steadfast determination. Gandhi, a pivotal figure in global peace movements, was influenced by diverse philosophical traditions, including Hinduism, Jainism, and Western thought. His commitment to truth and non-violence, shaped by his personal experiences in South Africa and India, culminated in this seminal work. The evolution of his thoughts is a mirror to the socio-political landscape of India, showcasing how personal ethical decisions can ripple into collective freedom. This book is not only a recount of Gandhi's life but also serves as a guiding light for anyone seeking to grapple with their own ethical and moral challenges. Readers are invited to explore Gandhi's insights, gaining valuable lessons on integrity, resilience, and the pursuit of truth in their own lives, making it an essential read for those interested in philosophy, ethics, or social justice.

    Short stories have always been a sort of instant access into an author’s brain, their soul and heart.  A few pages can lift our lives into locations, people and experiences with a sweep of landscape, narration, feelings and emotions that is difficult to achieve elsewhere. 
     
    In this series we try to offer up tried and trusted ‘Top Tens’ across many different themes and authors. But any anthology will immediately throw up the questions – Why that story? Why that author?  
     
    The theme itself will form the boundaries for our stories which range from well-known classics, newly told, to stories that modern times have overlooked but perfectly exemplify the theme.  Throughout the volume our authors whether of instant recognition or new to you are all leviathans of literature. 
     
    Some you may disagree with but they will get you thinking; about our choices and about those you would have made.  If this volume takes you on a path to discover more of these miniature masterpieces then we have all gained something. 
     
    In this decade Europe is recovering from the Great War yet already the poisonous seeds for the next, even greater calamity, are taking root.  Our literary leviathans bring tales of pain and heartache, sorrow and humanity into every narrative.  Genius has many names.

    “I was born, raised and lived in a Jehovah’s Witness family for forty-two years. In 2009, I left with my ten-year-old daughter. For many years, I didn’t see my parents, my brother or my son again. The experience left a deep impression on me.”
    Lucid and often funny despite the dilemmas she faces, Sophie Grimbert describes her inner struggle between the little soldier of God she was taught to be and the free woman she always dreamed of becoming. At a time when “new religions” are gaining ground, this hopeful book is both a demonstration of the strategies developed by fundamentalist movements and an indispensable instruction manual for anyone hoping to escape them.

     “Ordinary morality is only for ordinary people.” 
    “A man who is doing his True Will has the inertia of the Universe to assist him.” 
    “Intolerance is evidence of impotence.” 
    “The pious pretense that evil does not exist only makes it vague, enormous, and menacing.” Aleister Crowley 
     
    Aleister Crowley was born on October 12, 1875. He was an English occultist, ceremonial magician, poet, painter, novelist, and mountaineer. He founded the religion of Thelema, identifying himself as the prophet entrusted with guiding humanity into the Æon of Horus in the early 20th century. A prolific writer, he published widely over the course of his life. Born to a wealthy family in Royal Leamington Spa, Warwickshire, Crowley rejected his parents' fundamentalist Christian faith to pursue an interest in Western esotericism. He was educated at Trinity College at the University of Cambridge, where he focused his attention on mountaineering and poetry. Some biographers allege that here he was recruited into a British intelligence agency, further suggesting that he remained a spy throughout his life. In 1898 he joined the esoteric Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, where he was trained in ceremonial magic. Moving to Boleskine House by Loch Ness in Scotland, he went mountaineering in Mexico before studying Hindu and Buddhist practices in India. He married Rose Edith Kelly and in 1904 they honeymooned in Cairo, Egypt Crowley declared his followers should "Do what thou wilt" and seek to align themselves with their True Will through the practice of magick. Herein is a treasury of his long-lost writings as well as many devilish surprises! 
     
    In this rare one-of-a-kind audiobook adventure the listener is met with the unexpected nature of a grand literary trek.

    The World Wars of the 20th century caused massive upheavals all over the world. Often overlooked by history are the extraordinary true-life stories of the brave women from the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand who enlisted in the Allied forces in their thousands to serve as nurses behind the front lines, at great danger to themselves. And while men shot to kill in the North African, European, and the Pacific theaters of war, nurses served right behind them, armed with tools of healing rather than warfare. 
    These untold true stories of women heroes of WWII paint a vivid picture of life as a military nurse—from makeshift field hospitals in France to bombed-out station hospitals in Belgium to journeys fraught with danger on ambulance trains, air ambulances, and hospital ships.

    ●      how these women confronted changing social norms around gender and race, 
    ●      true stories of survival at the hands of enemy forces in Japanese prisoner-of-war camps, and more. 
    The stories of these brave women are an inspiring record of duty and selflessness. If you haven’t yet met heroes such as Vivian Bullwinkel and Margot Turner, you’ll definitely want to listen to this book.
