The Tapestry of Being - Understanding Samkhya and Yoga

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

In "The Tapestry of Being: Understanding Samkhya and Yoga," we embark on a profound journey into the ancient Indian philosophies of Samkhya and Yoga, unveiling their timeless wisdom and transformative power. Delving into the core principles of these traditions, this book offers a comprehensive exploration of reality, consciousness, and the human condition.

Samkhya, with its rigorous metaphysical framework, presents a compelling vision of the cosmos as a dynamic interplay between Purusha, the pure consciousness, and Prakriti, the primordial energy. This interplay gives rise to the phenomenal world, characterized by the three Gunas—Sattva, Rajas, and Tamas—which govern the qualities and interactions of all matter and consciousness.

Yoga, the practical counterpart to Samkhya, offers a transformative path to self-realization and liberation. Through various practices such as meditation, breathwork, and ethical conduct, Yoga seeks to dissolve the illusion of separateness, leading to an experience of unity and harmony with the universe. By aligning our actions, thoughts, and emotions with the principles of Yoga, we can cultivate inner peace, clarity, and a profound sense of well-being.

The exploration of Samkhya and Yoga is not merely an intellectual pursuit; it is a transformative journey that has the power to reshape our perception of reality and guide us towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life. By delving into the depths of these ancient wisdom traditions, we can discover a path to self-knowledge, liberation from suffering, and the realization of our true potential.

Throughout this book, we will explore the profound insights of Samkhya and Yoga, examining their metaphysical foundations, ethical principles, and practical applications. We will trace their historical development, examining their influence on Indian thought and culture, and exploring their relevance to contemporary life. Whether you are a seasoned practitioner of yoga and meditation or a newcomer to these traditions, this book will provide a deeper understanding and appreciation of their transformative power.

As we embark on this journey together, may we find inspiration and guidance in the timeless wisdom of Samkhya and Yoga, uncovering the tapestry of being and realizing the interconnectedness of all existence.

"The Tapestry of Being" is an essential guide for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of these ancient Indian philosophies and their profound implications for our lives. Its comprehensive approach and accessible style make it an invaluable resource for scholars, practitioners, and anyone interested in exploring the depths of consciousness and the nature of reality.

Betrayed By Hope

Malashri Lal, Namita Gokhale

Michael Madhusudan Dutt (1824--1872), a maverick who changed the scope of Bengali poetry in the nineteenth century, especially with his free-verse epic, 'Meghnadhbadh Kabya', was a genius who never got his due. Throughout his life, Madhusudan was caught in an identity crisis: he wrote in the English language, changed his religion and was a restless traveler, yearning to belong somewhere. After an extended sojourn in London and Paris, with misery and poverty as his constant companions, the poet finally found his metier in his mother tongue. Betrayed By Hope, a play-script based on the letters Michael Madhusudan Dutt wrote to friends, well-wishers and patrons, paints the portrait of an artist as he plunges headlong into crisis after crisis, even as his imagination and creativity soar. Namita Gokhale and Malashri Lal pay tribute to his extraordinary life in a story that will lay bare our deep-set contradictions about art and life.
The audio version is directed by Giriraj Kiradoo and Priyanka Sharma.

How to Flourish - An Ancient...

Aristotle, Susan Sauvé Meyer

Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics is one of the greatest guides to human flourishing ever written, but its length and style have left many readers languishing. How to Flourish is a colloquial new translation by Susan Sauvé Meyer that makes Aristotle's timeless insights about how to lead a good life more engaging and accessible than ever before. 
 
 
 
For Aristotle, flourishing involves becoming a good person through practice, and having a life of the mind. To that end, he draws vivid portraits of virtuous and vicious characters and offers sound practical advice about everything from eating and drinking to managing money, controlling anger, getting along with others, and telling jokes. He also distinguishes different kinds of wisdom that are essential to flourishing and offers an unusual perspective on how to appreciate our place in the universe and our relation to the divine. 
 
 
 
Omitting Aristotle's digressions and repetitions and overly technical passages, How to Flourish provides connecting commentary that allows listeners to follow the continuous line of his thought. The result is an inviting and lively version of an essential work about how to flourish and lead a good life.

Strange Archaeology of Canada

George Mitrovic

Who would think that some of the oldest human remains found in North America would be found in Canada. This is on top of, or should I say beneath, the remains of Viking Settlements and even earlier Irish Settlements. Who else has visited Canada in the Past? You will have to listen to the book to find out. After all, Gardar, the seat of the Bishops in Greenland, with its own cathedral, was only 570 miles to the east of the Newfoundland coast. This is virtually a short boat trip to the Vikings. And what of the massive stone ruins found at Ungava Bay, well past the Arctic Circle. All these and more are in this book. I hope that you enjoy it.

The Spanish Influenza Of 1918

Mike Parson

The 1918 Influenza Pandemic moved worldwide in three waves, infecting up to 500 million people and causing over 40 million deaths. Several things tended to be present in areas that ended the pandemic with lower mortality rates than average. These include low rates of poverty, widespread access to healthcare, well-funded and general public health measures, and well-managed record keeping. Areas that ended the pandemic with high mortality rates tended to lack the above – they had high rates of poverty, limited access to healthcare, public health measures were unfunded or ineffective, and recordkeeping and communication were unreliable or unclear. It is essential to learn from the success and mistakes of nations passed so that we as a planet are better prepared for any pandemics that should arise in the future. Preparing involves high vaccination rates, fighting drug-resistant pathogens, and working to lower global poverty.
