  Digital Age The - A Critical...

  Is the digital revolution, which is unfolding at breathtaking speed, a curse or a blessing for humanity? Is it delivering on its promise of almost limitless freedom? And what consequences does digitalization have for the development of human consciousness and for our souls?The Wisdom teacher OM C. Parkin offers an astonishing and comprehensive view of the digital age. He shows that the fear of limitation, of human mortality, which manifests itself in the individual fear of death, leads to an inflationary preoccupation with the insignificant. As we immerse ourselves in the ever-accelerating virtual world, our souls become lost and humanity moves further and further away from the true desire for knowledge. "The thinking minds of the digital world conquerors are dominated by the belief in a religion-substituting doctrine of salvation for all humanity through technological progress. In my words: they confuse the seemingly endless creative possibilities of the digital revolution and the life-improving circumstances for many people worldwide that it can create with a path to awakening for humanity. A path to awakening is an inner path, and the leaders of this revolution probably do not even know what an inner path is. "The good news is that healing is possible if we recognize the cause of our misguided drives and reflect on our true purpose – the realization of true human potential. To this end, it is essential to rediscover an appreciation for slowness, as well as for places of tranquility, both in the outside world and, above all, within ourselves."What I definitely predict is that all forms of external hyperactivity will be reduced to a healthy level. And it is this reduction that we collectively urgently need in order to heal – not endless growth. " OM C. Parkin

  Flying Through the Ranks - The...

  Air Marshal G.A. 'Black' Robertson

  The inspiration for this brilliant anthology is the "I Learnt About Flying from That" articles that first appeared in the RAF flight safety magazine Air Clues in the 1940s and continue to feature in the magazine to this day. Flying Through the Ranks gets a five-star start with an extraordinary tale from a marshal of the Royal Air Force and continues in the same vein. Men and women of every rank—pilots, navigators, engineers, a RAF regiment officer, and airmen too—reveal similar intriguing experiences in both war and peace. Exciting, amusing, poignant too at times, their stories say as much about the development of the RAF and the making of the Cold War warrior as they do about the individuals themselves. It's impossible not to be moved by these rousing stories of courage and leadership, risk-taking and pressure, invention and adventure. Starkly exposing human fallibility at times, they highlight the skill and improvisation central to the flying business. Other common themes across some uncommon accounts are the sheer exhilaration of flying, the role that luck plays in everyone's life, and the unspoken bond of respect that binds aviation professionals together. Strap yourself in for a top flight experience!

  What is Evidence? Understanding...

  This book is about evidence. Its purpose is to shed light on the nature of evidence and to do away with the mystique associated with the meaning of the word. Concepts falling within the subject are defined and explained, as are the different categories of evidence. Without dealing with the question of causation, an explanation of the nature of evidence would not be complete. Part of a complete treatment of the subject is to explain the place and importance of causation. This, the book does, showing the reader how to identify causal relationships and how to answer the question of causation according to the context at hand. Whether you are a student of law, a debater, or someone interested in assessing the evidentiary value of claims or arguments, this book, I trust, will be an indispensable aid to you.

  Wiserwoof presents The Stoics Collection.  In this first release we give you a collection of the best Epictetus quotes.  Epictetus was born nearly 2,000 years ago in Hierapolis (present-day Pamukkale in Turkey) as a slave in a wealthy household. Epaphroditus, his owner, gave him the permission to pursue liberal studies and it is how Epictetus discovered philosophy through the Stoic Musonius Rufus who became his teacher and mentor. Later, Epictetus obtained his freedom shortly after emperor Nero's death and started teaching philosophy in Rome for nearly 25 years. This lasted until emperor Domitian famously banished all philosophers in Rome. Epictetus fled to Nicopolis in Greece where he founded a philosophy school and taught there until his death.
