  In the Mind of Stalin

  On 1 October 1939, Winston Churchill, First Lord of the Admiralty and soon to be the UK’s wartime leader, described Russia as ‘a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma’. The same can certainly be said of Stalin. How can this paradox of a man, who on the one hand had once exhibited great tenderness and kindness to his daughter Svetlana, and on the other sent millions – including members of his own family - to their deaths, be explained? 
   
  It is impossible to quantify the total number of deaths attributable to the policies of Stalin, but the ‘Excess Mortality’ (i.e., deaths over and above what would normally have been expected during the period in question) gives an approximate figure in excess of 40 million. 
   
  However, this is only part of the story of the amount of misery inflicted by the Stalin regime through torture, deliberate starvation, neglect, separation from loved ones, cold and hypothermia (e.g. in the prisons of Siberia), which is unquantifiable and unimaginable. 
   
  Svetlana confessed that she ‘would never undertake to “explain” what motivated all my father’s actions, simply because I do not possess the psychological genius of [Russian novelist] Dostoevsky, who knew how to “penetrate” into another man’s soul and “examine it from within”’.

  The Holodomor, a man-made famine that devastated Ukraine between 1932 and 1933, has its roots in the policies of the Soviet Union under Joseph Stalin. While the famine itself was a tragedy of immense proportions, its causes can be traced to the larger political and economic strategies of the Soviet regime. 
  The Soviet Union, in its quest for rapid industrialization, implemented harsh agricultural policies, which included forced collectivization. The idea was to consolidate small farms into larger collective farms, thereby increasing agricultural output and facilitating the redistribution of food to feed the growing industrial centers. However, this policy had disastrous effects on Ukraine, where agriculture was the backbone of the economy. 
  Collectivization forced Ukrainian peasants, who were traditionally independent farmers, into state-run collective farms. This not only disrupted agricultural production but also led to widespread resistance, as many Ukrainians viewed this as a direct attack on their way of life. The Soviets, determined to break this resistance, responded with brutal force. Those who opposed collectivization were often punished or executed, and the fertile lands of Ukraine were systematically confiscated. 
  Stalin’s government implemented the policy of grain requisitioning, where large amounts of grain were forcibly taken from Ukraine to support other areas of the Soviet Union. Ukraine, known as the “breadbasket” of the Soviet Union, became the primary target of these requisitions. The grain was not only taken for export but also used to fuel the industrial ambitions of the Soviet state. This left the Ukrainian population without sufficient food for survival, pushing them into a state of extreme deprivation.

  The Meaning of Truth

  The Meaning of Truth by William James is a collection of essays exploring the nature of truth through the lens of pragmatism. James argues that truth is not a fixed, abstract concept but rather a practical relationship between ideas and their consequences. He proposes that the "truth" of an idea lies in its ability to guide action and produce positive results in the world. This pragmatic approach to truth contrasts with traditional philosophical views that often emphasize the correspondence between ideas and reality.

  Laboratories of Terror explores the final chapter of Stalin's Great Terror in Soviet Ukraine. 
   
   
   
  When the Communist Party Central Committee and the Council of People's Commissars of the USSR halted mass operations in repression in November 1938, large numbers of mainly Communist purge victims whose cases remained incomplete were released. At the same time, hundreds of NKVD operatives who had carried out the Great Terror were scapegoated and arrested. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on materials from the largely closed archives of the Soviet security police, this collection of essays by an international team of researchers illuminates the previously opaque world of the NKVD perpetrator. It uncovers the mechanics and logistics of the terror at the local level by examining the criminal files of a series of mid-level NKVD operatives from across Ukraine. The result offers new perspectives on both Stalin's central role in the architecture of the terror and NKVD perpetrators' agency in implementing one of the most horrific episodes of twentieth-century mass violence.

  The Kybalion - A Study of The...

  Initiates Three

  Since 1908, The Kybalion has served as a study of basic Hermetic teachings that outline an ageless wisdom and touch upon the inner workings of nature. In ancient times and even today, these teachings were not understood by the lay person, but were readily understood by students after the axioms and principles had been explained and exemplified by the Hermetic Initiates and Masters to their Neophytes. An occult classic, this edition of The Kybalion is prefaced with an intriguing and thought-provoking foreword by Summum. 
  ''The purpose of this work is not the enunciation of any special philosophy or doctrine, but rather is to give to the students a statement of the Truth that will serve to reconcile the many bits of occult knowledge that they may have acquired, but which are apparently opposed to each other and which often serve to discourage and disgust the beginner in the study. Our intent is not to erect a new Temple of Knowledge, but rather to place in the hands of the student a Master-Key with which he may open the many inner doors in the Temple of Mystery through the main portals he has already entered.'' -- The Kybalion
