  Bridging Spirit and Science -...

  Spirit and Science are viewed as opposing views. I have lived my life in the middle of this divide. Trained as an engineer and scientist, I was taught to trust logic, mathematics, and experimental proof.  
  Yet my personal experiences — from moments of prophecy to direct awareness of subtle energies — convinced me that there is more to reality than conventional science admits.  
  For years I tried to keep the two worlds separate: the rational and the mystical. But over time, the boundary dissolved. I realized that both perspectives describe the same universe from different vantage points.  
  My work, and this book in particular, is about restoring the unity that once existed between them. 
  The purpose of this book is not to replace science with mysticism, nor to reduce spiritual experience to chemistry or neurology. Rather, it aims to show that consciousness, energy, and matter are aspects of a single integrated system.

  पाशुपत सम्प्रदाय का उद्भव एवं...

  Pashupat religion under Shaivism was adorned as the oldest sect. The emergence of Pashupat religion was virtually between sixth and fifth century BC. Its creative foundation was primarily confined to the existence of tradition as a result of traditional exchange. Firstly, the concept of Vedic Rudra-Pashupati and the rituals located in its sanctum gave the philosophical foundation of the Pashupat-sect. The influence of the non-Aryan tradition is visible on the upper sides of Pashupat-Dharma. In the third place, in the seventh-century CE, the Muni-Shravan-ideology created that atmosphere, which resulted in the origin of Pashupat-Sampradaya. The Tapasic tradition is the highest belief in the Pashupat sect, its main reason being the influence of the Muni-Shramana ideology. Hence the presentation of this conclusion seems to be justified that the Pashupat-Sampradaya was acclaimed as a byproduct of the devotional and ascetic aspect of the religious revolution that took place in the seventh century AD.

  The Fight for Privacy -...

  Privacy is disappearing. From our sex lives to our workout routines, the details of our lives once relegated to pen and paper have joined the slipstream of new technology. As a MacArthur fellow and distinguished professor of law at the University of Virginia, acclaimed civil rights advocate Danielle Citron has spent decades working with lawmakers and stakeholders across the globe to protect what she calls intimate privacy—encompassing our bodies, health, gender, and relationships. When intimate privacy becomes data, corporations know exactly when to flash that ad for a new drug or pregnancy test. Social and political forces know how to manipulate what you think and who you trust, leveraging sensitive secrets and deepfake videos to ruin or silence opponents. And as new technologies invite new violations, people have power over one another like never before, from revenge porn to blackmail, attaching life-altering risks to growing up, dating online, or falling in love. 
   
   
   
  A masterful new look at privacy in the twenty-first century, The Fight for Privacy takes the focus off Silicon Valley moguls to investigate the price we pay as technology migrates deeper into every aspect of our lives: entering our bedrooms and our bathrooms and our midnight texts; our relationships with friends, family, lovers, and kids; and even our relationship with ourselves.

  A Short History of European Law brings to life 2,500 years of legal history, tying current norms to the circumstances of their conception. Tamar Herzog describes how successive legal systems built upon one another, from ancient times through the European Union. Roman law formed the backbone of each configuration, though the way it was used and reshaped varied dramatically from one century and place to the next. Only by considering Continental civil law and English common law together do we see how they drew from and enriched this shared tradition.
