  In this 2023 interview with Justine Willis Toms, Carolyn Baker, Ph.D discusses an imminent "global dark night of the soul." Baker believes humanity is poised on a threshold of a global crisis that is not asking us to simply “make things better” or invent new ways of living. It’s demanding that we surrender to a transformation so radical that we become a new variety of the human species. "Our assignment is to become sacred activists." 
  Carolyn Baker, Ph.D. has been a psychotherapist in private practice and a college professor of psychology and history. Through her webinars, podcasts, live workshops, books, and articles, as well as one-on-one life coaching, Carolyn is touching the lives of thousands to assist them in deeply adapting and becoming resilient in the face of the unprecedented changes confronting humanity. She works closely with Andrew Harvey for the Institute for Sacred Activism. She is the author of Undaunted: Living Fiercely into Climate Meltdown in an Authoritarian World (Apocryphile Press 2022) and Radical Regeneration: Sacred Activism and the Renewal of the World (co-author Andrew Harvey) (Inner Traditions 2022)

  King David: The History and...

  Before any type of unified political entity named Israel existed, the Jewish groups whose descendants would later form Israel identified themselves by their particular tribe. If asked their nationality or country of origin, they would likely identify themselves as Danites (from the tribe of Dan; Ex. 31:6) or Ephraimites (from the tribe of Ephraim; Judg. 12:5), etc. The main way to differentiate these tribes from other tribes in Canaan was their common worship of the deity YHWH, but in terms of language or other cultural characteristics, it would have been difficult to tell a Canaanite from an Israelite.  
  	Before David’s rise, the prophet Samuel emerged as the supreme spiritual authority, serving as the bridge between the will of Yahweh and earthly power and holding the sacred authority to appoint and remove kings. After rejecting Saul for his transgressions, Samuel was sent by God to Bethlehem, in the heart of the territory of the tribe of Judah. It is here that the Biblical narrative turns its focus to the origins of David. Modern historical scholarship quickly dismantles the romantic image of David as a poor shepherd boy of humble origins - his father Jesse was in fact a respected elder of Bethlehem, a prosperous landowner with significant land and large herds of livestock. 
  	The family's internal dynamics were not without tension. David was the youngest son, and given the demographic pressures mentioned above and the system of primogeniture, his prospects of receiving a meaningful share of the inheritance were slim. This pushed him to leave home and quickly develop other skills to get by: he became both a formidable warrior and a skilled lyre player, an instrument that signaled his belonging to a well-off class. Furthermore, David's complete absence when the prophet Samuel arrived, left tending the flock in the fields while his brothers took part in the ritual, highlights his initially marginalized and underestimated position, even in his own father's eyes.

  Childhood Denied

  Throughout history, violence against children has taken every possible form (physical, emotional, psychological, sexual, neglect, and child labor), at times adopting quite strange shapes. He went on to say that in ancient times, even the right to life had to be conferred by a rite; before that, a kid with no rights might be disposed of as casually as an aborted fetus.Throughout much of history, adult-adolescent sexual interaction was not only permitted but often the standard; adult-child sexual interaction was somewhat less common but still reasonably prevalent. Many famous historical characters demonstrate that adult/adolescent, and to a lesser extent adult-child, sexual behavior was widespread and generally tolerated. The man-boy partnerships that were frequent in ancient Greece and Rome are one of the most well-known examples. Individual examples include St. Augustine, and Mahatma Gandhi.Child abuse and neglect do not often have visible warning signals. However, by learning to spot the indicators of a problem, you can make a significant impact on a child's life. Child abuse is more than simply black eyes. While physical abuse is horrifying because of its scars, not all indications of child abuse are as visible. Ignoring a child's needs, leaving them unsupervised in risky settings, exposing them to sexual situations, or making them feel worthless or foolish are all forms of child abuse and neglect that can leave profound, lasting scars on children.Abuse and neglect of any kind leave permanent scars. Some of these scars may be physical, but emotional scarring has long-term consequences, affecting a child's sense of self, future relationships, and capacity to perform at home, work, and school.Individuals who have been traumatized as children face unique issues that can be addressed via various healing techniques. The approach used and its efficacy differ from person to person and frequently change over time as the nature of trauma and healing shifts.

  Warmly narrated by Christian Coulson with atmospheric music and sound design,this audiobook offers listeners a gentle and reflective listening experience. 
   
  From the author and illustrator of the international bestseller Big Panda and Tiny Dragon comes a beautifully illustrated exploration into the journeys we take for self-discovery and the connections we make along the way. 
  In a distant city, an old cat considers himself as wise as can be, until he hears of an ancient pine far away, under the boughs of which infinite wisdom can be found. Thus, the Cat embarks on a journey deep into the forest to search for the tree. Along the way, he meets new friends—the Hare, the Magpie, the Wolf Cub, the Monkey, the Tortoise, and the Tiger—and comes across the energetic young Kitten. What wisdom does the Cat have to impart to his friends, and, perhaps more importantly, what does he still have to learn? 
  Inspired by Zen stories, The Cat Who Taught Zen has wisdom to offer all readers.
