  A tour-de-force guide to Zen Master Dogen's most subtle and sophisticated philosophical premises: that being and time are inseparable. 
   
   
   
  Being-Time thoroughly explores Dogen's teaching on how we practice as Buddhas by understanding the relationship between being and time as it is—and as we perceive it to be. Using Dogen's Shobogenzo Uji (The True Dharma Eye, Being-Time), Shinshu Roberts offers a twofold analysis of this teaching: the meaning of the text and practice with the text, giving examples how we apply Dogen's complex teaching to our daily lives.

  The Heart Sutra - Becoming a...

  The Heart Sutra , originally a very short set of verses, was given in privacy as a message to one of Buddha's close disciples, Sariputra, specifically addressed to him. Over time the Heart Sutra became one of Buddhism's core teachings.
  In these 10 talks, Osho presents the powerful message of these ancient words and brings them to a modern audience - one with different minds and needs than the original audiences of Buddha more than 2,500 years ago. Osho's message is not about Buddha the historical figure; instead he addresses his listeners and encourages them to discover their own inner realities, their own buddhahood. Like Buddha's, Osho's message is about meditation and meditation alone - "rely only on your meditation and nothing else".
  Osho also speaks on the seven chakras, the energy centers of the human body, and their corresponding relationships to the physical, psychosomatic, psychological, psychospiritual, spiritual, spiritual-transcendental, and transcendental aspects of human growth and consciousness.

  A provocative book arguing that the workplace is where we learn to live democratically. 
   
  In The Pandemic Workplace, anthropologist Ilana Gershon turns her attention to the US workplace and how it changed—and changed us—during the pandemic. She argues that the unprecedented organizational challenges of the pandemic forced us to radically reexamine our attitudes about work and to think more deeply about how values clash in the workplace. These changes also led us as workers to engage more with the contracts that bind us as we rethought when and how we allow others to tell us what to do. 
   
  Based on over two hundred interviews, Gershon’s book reveals how negotiating these tensions during the pandemic made the workplace into a laboratory for democratic living—the key place where Americans are learning how to develop effective political strategies and think about the common good. Exploring the explicit and unspoken ways we are governed (and govern others) at work, this accessible book shows how the workplace teaches us to be democratic citizens.

  Modern culture has rendered twentysomethings trivial while simultaneously glamorizing them, leaving young adults confused about their place in the world. However, as psychologist Meg Jay argues in The Defining Decade (2012), the twenties are a transformative age that cannot be taken lightly. Based on her years of experience and research, Jay finds that this period is characterized by multiple changes, which leave young adults vulnerable to anxiety and failure. These changes affect their body, identity, career, relationships, and future endeavors. It is essential to offer them helpful mentorship and guidelines for navigating the twenties, so that they can thrive and build strong pillars for a fruitful and happy future.

  The Rise of Isis - The Formation...

  The rise of the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) stands as one of the most significant and alarming phenomena of the 21st century. Emerging from the chaos of regional conflicts and geopolitical missteps, ISIS transformed from a little-known insurgent group into a global threat that captured the world’s attention. At its height, ISIS declared a self-styled caliphate, controlling vast territories across Iraq and Syria, and wielded its influence far beyond the Middle East. Through acts of brutality, strategic propaganda, and a sophisticated recruitment network, the group redefined the face of modern terrorism.  
    
  The story of ISIS is not one of sudden emergence but rather a culmination of decades of historical, political, and social factors. Its rise cannot be fully understood without examining the regional instability created by the Iraq War, the Arab Spring uprisings, and the Syrian Civil War. These events set the stage for the group’s ascent, enabling it to exploit power vacuums, sectarian divisions, and state failures. The role of key figures, such as Abu Musab al-Zarqawi and Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, was pivotal in shaping the group’s ideology, operations, and global ambitions.  
    
  Equally crucial to understanding ISIS’s impact is its approach to governance and control. The group operated as more than a terrorist organization—it functioned as a quasi-state, establishing administrative systems, levying taxes, and providing services to populations under its rule. Its brutality, however, served as both a tool of fear and a declaration of its unyielding vision, attracting supporters and horrifying opponents. Through propaganda disseminated across digital platforms, ISIS extended its reach to every corner of the globe, inspiring attacks in cities far removed from its territorial base.
