The Initiatory Ecstasy From Giordano Bruno to Arturo Reghini

Nicola Bizzi

Beschreibung

What exactly is ecstasy (from the Greek ἔκστασις, literally "being outside"), that psychic state of suspension and mystical elevation of the mind, which is perceived by those who experience it intensely as "estranged" from the body? What are its links with Philosophy (to be understood as Sacred Knowledge or as love for Divine Wisdom) and above all with mystical death and the initiatory experience of the ancient Mysteries? What is thought and how to control it to rise to higher levels of consciousness?
All the great initiatory schools of the past taught that one must die and be reborn in order to then ascend. But can this ascension be comparable to Philosophical Ecstasy?
Great philosophers of antiquity, from Plotinus to Porphyry, spoke to us about the experience of Philosophical Ecstasy as a reunion with the Absolute, with the Supreme End. And what if it also and above all involved a full connection with the Anima Mundi or with the Akashic Records? From Giordano Bruno to Tommaso Campanella, up to Arturo Reghini and Amedeo Rocco Armentano, some authentic Initiates have attempted to answer these questions.

Economic and Social History of...

Anya Solace

El Salvador, the smallest country in Central America, has a rich and complex history shaped by its geographic location, indigenous cultures, and colonial experiences. This chapter serves as an introduction to the key historical, economic, and social factors that have defined El Salvador’s development, providing essential context for understanding its contemporary challenges and achievements.
The country’s geographic features, including volcanic mountain ranges, fertile valleys, and extensive coastlines, have significantly influenced both its early human settlement and later economic development. El Salvador’s topography has led to a concentration of population in the central valley area, where the capital, San Salvador, is located. Over time, this concentration of population has resulted in social and economic disparities between urban and rural areas. Additionally, El Salvador’s location at the crossroads of ancient Mesoamerican civilizations played a key role in the cultural and economic foundations of its indigenous groups, such as the Pipil and Lenca, who developed sophisticated agricultural and trade systems long before Spanish colonization.
The indigenous peoples of El Salvador had complex social and political systems, with distinct languages, traditions, and economies. The arrival of Spanish conquistadors in the early 16th century brought dramatic changes. The conquest led to the decimation of indigenous populations through disease, warfare, and forced labor. Spanish colonization introduced European economic systems such as the encomienda system, which granted settlers control over indigenous labor in exchange for protecting and converting them to Christianity. This marked the beginning of a long history of exploitation and social stratification in El Salvador, which would have lasting effects on the country’s development.

Economic & Financial Crises -...

Fredrich Hazelton

This book contains the following titles: 
- The 2023 Inflation Surge: The year 2023 witnessed an unprecedented surge in inflation across multiple global economies, challenging both policymakers and citizens. This inflationary spike had far-reaching implications, reshaping how individuals and businesses approach spending, saving, and investment. For many, the cost of living soared, driven by rising prices on essential goods and services. The effects were not limited to any one region; they were felt in both developed and emerging economies, exacerbating the economic struggles that had already been heightened by the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain disruptions. 
  
- The Collapse of the Soviet Union: The Soviet Union, once the most powerful socialist state on the planet, dominated global politics and economics for much of the 20th century. From its establishment in 1922 until its disintegration in 1991, the USSR stood as a superpower, rivaling the United States in military strength, technological innovation, and ideological influence. The Soviet Union was not just a political entity; it was the manifestation of a grand vision of socialist governance that sought to reshape the world. Its rise to power was marked by revolution, war, and the forging of a unique socio-economic structure that stood in stark contrast to the capitalist world.

Keep Left - Red Paper on...

Pauline Bryan

This book has a message for everyone concerned about the direction of politics in Scotland, the UK and beyond: do not despair. There are realistic, left alternatives to being stuck in a political 'doom loop'. 
In 1975 the Red Paper on Scotland, edited by the young, radical Gordon Brown was a seminal publication; it helped create, not just catch, the mood of the day.  
Fifty years later a new group of writers have come together to write about what we can learn from the past and how we can shape what lies ahead. 
The authors of this book believe only a radical redistribution of wealth and power within a democratic economy will engage Scottish voters. It calls on us to Keep Left.
