  Peacemaker - U Thant and the...

  Thant Myint-U

  In the early 1960s, a peaceful world was an imaginable goal. The United Nations was widely respected and regarded as humankind's best hope for resolving global conflicts. African and Asian nations, having recently won their freedom from colonial domination, sought dignity and influence on the world stage. At the helm of their efforts was U Thant, a practicing Buddhist from a remote town in Burma who, as the UN's first non-Western secretary-general, became the Cold War era's preeminent ambassador of peace. From the moment of his predecessor's death in 1961, Thant faced a deluge of violent conflicts. Crucially, during the Cuban Missile Crisis, he played an indispensable role in defusing tensions and helping both superpowers find a way back from nuclear confrontation. For years Thant also challenged Washington over its war in Vietnam, identifying paths to peace that could have saved the lives of millions. 
    
  Drawing on newly declassified documents, Thant's grandson, historian Thant Myint-U, gives a riveting account of how his grandfather's gentle yet willful disposition shaped his determination to avoid a third world war, give voice to the newly decolonized world, create a fairer international economy, and safeguard the environment. Rather than a vestige of an idealistic past, U Thant's fight for peace is central to a fresh understanding of our world today.

  Narrated by the author, this empowering spiritual philosophy audiobook contains seven of Story Waters' most popular introductory texts that cover a wide variety of topics and give a comprehensive overview of his core teachings. These texts were updated and expanded in 2024. This is the first book of the ‘No Religion: Consciousness Creates Reality’ compendium. The seven texts in 'The Book of Introductions' are:Chapter 1: Introduction by Seth (as originally channeled by Jane Roberts).Chapter 2: Imagined (about John Lennon, the power of imagination, and the origins of this book).Chapter 3: The Messenger (the relationship between spirit, the embodied self, and wider eternal consciousness).Chapter 4: Gnosticism & the Infinite Library (how the Gnostic/channeling process works).Chapter 5: Loving Unconsciousness (how we form our mortal self through the use of selective unconsciousness).Chapter 6: Open Your Mind (an invitation for you to have your own adventure in consciousness)."These texts have been drawn from two decades of writing — from in-depth, formal spiritual philosophy … to accessible short-form articles ... to stream-of-consciousness texts … to adapted transcripts of my spoken messages. They describe a belief system that has evolved from receiving thousands of hours of gnostic communication/channeling from the wider reality — the non-physical, timeless state of consciousness the human experience continually births from. These beliefs outline how all truth is subjective & how we are all vessels of experience. Along with your current life experiences, your diverse ‘contents’ include the other lifetimes that were instrumental in forming your intention for this life. The reality you are creating must be met & integrated, regardless of whether you identify its contents as positive or negative. It is a gift of self-transformation you have given to yourself." - from Chapter 1: Introduction by Seth.
