This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). As you sit there in front of the comforting glow of the television screen, the world outside continues as normal. Often, we are oblivious to the fact that ours is but one of many empires that have risen and fallen throughout the course of human history. Yet ours is not an empire of a single state, ruled by some emperor. Ours is a global empire – an empire of connection, technology, and consumption. To most, the thought that this globalised, technologically advanced world, is just as fragile as those that came before us seems absurd. Yet the deserts are littered with the great crumbling monuments of once seemingly invincible nations, the citizens of which would have thought the same. Those who understand the patterns of human civilisation cannot look around and think that what they see will last forever. The great works we build today will be the crumbling monuments of some future desert. We must therefore look to the past to understand both present realities and future possibilities. So, join us now as we explore the rise and fall of past empires. You shall journey through vast cities, witness the creation of grand architecture marvels, worship strange gods long forgotten, and see a reflection of ourselves in the citizens of these empires.Show book
The Moche civilization emerged along the northern coast of present-day Peru, flourishing between approximately 100 and 750 CE. This society developed in a region marked by arid deserts, fertile river valleys, and proximity to the Pacific Ocean, which shaped its economy, culture, and political structure. The Moche were not a singular unified state but rather a collection of regional polities connected through shared traditions, artistic styles, and religious beliefs. Their rise was influenced by earlier Andean cultures, particularly the Cupisnique and Chavín, which had already laid the foundations for complex societies in the region. The origins of the Moche civilization can be traced to the early centuries of the Common Era when small communities along the coast began to expand due to agricultural advancements and increasing social stratification. The region's rivers, fed by Andean runoff, allowed for irrigation-based farming that supported large populations. Over time, leaders emerged who controlled land, labor, and water resources, leading to the development of hierarchical societies. These early rulers likely solidified their power through religious authority, military strength, and their ability to organize large-scale construction projects. One of the defining aspects of Moche civilization was its adaptation to the harsh environment. The coastal deserts of northern Peru posed challenges for sustaining large populations, yet the Moche mastered irrigation technology, channeling river water to expand arable land. This agricultural innovation provided surplus food, which in turn fueled urban growth, specialization of labor, and the rise of elite classes. Moche settlements grew into centers of political and religious activity, with monumental architecture such as pyramids and temples becoming focal points of their cities.Show book
Beyond The Game: A Rowing Romance (Varsity Hearts Athletics, Short Story) Two rowing rivals, a sweaty London locker room, and a tension so thick it could sink a scull. Freddy, a disciplined, senior-squad rower and corporate architect, lives by the clock: 5 AM training, tight work deadlines, and zero emotional distractions. When his intense focus is broken by a gorgeous blonde guy in an upscale Richmond café, Freddy’s perfect schedule is thrown overboard. Andy, a semi-pro photographer with a knack for trouble, is new to the development rowing squad. He should be focused on proving his athletic worth, but all his attention—and his most explicit fantasies—are suddenly focused on the beautiful, snobbish rower he keeps accidentally flashing. Their lives clash when Andy’s leg brushes Freddy’s under a table at a swanky Fulham bar, turning a casual drink into a high-stakes game of seduction. From judging PEI oysters and Tattinger champagne to revealing explicit photography on a phone screen, the lines between rivalry and reckless lust blur completely. They’re teammates. They’re competitors. And in the damp, secretive corners of the boat club, they might just become each other's dirtiest secret. If you love sizzling tension, high-stakes sport, and unexpected encounters, grab this fast-paced, high-heat short story. It's the perfect taste of what happens when two athletes let their desire run wild.Show book
Today, we do not use our ancient cosmic orientation to relate to the natural world as we once did. It's no longer determined by where we are or what time it is by the Sun's daily motion across the sky. Our perception of the outside world has changed, and we have lost our sense of wholeness within a great system. Factors such as our work and play rhythms, clothing, diet, and travel are affected by climatic and seasonal factors. These factors affect our unconscious sense of timing and our ability to communicate with nature, which we often overlook. Often we marvel at the apparent serenity and spiritual confidence of ancient people, forgetting that their tools were taught and used within an environment that encouraged them to recognize and embrace natural and divine forces. These tools enabled one to maintain a profound sense of cosmic orientation, keep it, and view one's role as actual spiritual work. In ancient Egypt, a man named Al was gifted with a sense of cosmic orientation. As dams have been constructed in our era, the Nile no longer produces an annual flood, but understanding the rhythm of that event and others associated with it is essential to understanding Egyptian rituals and ceremonies. To restore cosmic orientation, we need to leave our temporal field of time and enter the visible universe of ancient Egypt, where cosmic rhythms sustained human life, nature, and even the gods.Show book
