Sinopsis

Soul Weighing explores the captivating concept of how ancient cultures envisioned the evaluation of souls in the afterlife. This book examines diverse beliefs about judgment and the criteria for determining a soul's worth, revealing fundamental human anxieties about morality and accountability. For instance, ancient Egyptians meticulously depicted the weighing of the heart against the feather of Ma'at, symbolizing truth and justice. Similarly, other civilizations developed intricate systems of rewards and punishments based on ethical conduct during life. The book uniquely analyzes various cultural traditions, from Egypt and Greece to Eastern religions, identifying both common themes and divergent approaches to soul weighing. It traces the evolution of these beliefs and their influence on ethical thought, supported by religious texts, archaeological findings, and art. Soul Weighing progresses by first introducing the core concept, then analyzing its evolution across cultures, and finally exploring its lasting impact on art, literature, and contemporary discussions of ethics and mortality. This comparative mythology sheds light on the universal human quest for meaning beyond death.

    What if you could dive deeply within and understand why you interpret the world the way you do and behave a certain way in different situations? What if you could see, with vivid clarity, the unpolished aspects of someone’s character when making critical decisions involving them? Imagine the difference this would make when choosing your life partner, business partner, next employee, future employer or governing leaders. 
    In HUMAN BEING – illuminating the reality beneath the facade, Ashkan Tashvir supports you to adopt an ontological (‘let’s get real’) approach to understanding human beings – yourself and others. It follows his best-selling book, BEING, in which he deeply examines a radical paradigm he engineered after a decade of intensive studies called the Being Framework™ and the philosophy behind it. Explored in this book in a clear, tangible way, the Being Framework zooms in on, breaks down and articulates the qualities behind and drivers of our decisions, behaviours and actions. 
    Whether you are building a career, a startup, a family, a relationship or an organisation, this book provides you with the tools to identify and transform the elusive root causes behind the blockages holding you back and gives you a lens to observe the same in others. Ultimately, it supports you to prioritise your intentions, express your authentic self, enjoy successful relationships and lead a life of influence, well-being and fulfilment. Discover how to see through your and others’ Being by decoding the fundamental qualities that influence our behaviours and decisions and drive our results.

    Given the growing success of this book, first published in 2009 and then updated in 2014, this third edition has been fully revised and updated by the author, incorporating the latest expressions of social chaos, instrumentalized by the powers that be for the past eight years.
    How to become the masters of the world in the age of the Internet? The good-old method of the pyromaniac fireman still works. Renamed “shock strategy” or social engineering, it consists of plunging populations into crisis and anguish to better centralize order and power in the hands of an oligarchy usurping the identity of the savior. In the twentieth century, politics has moved from the art of persuasion to technical issues of hacking minds and optimizing group management. To that end, several disciplines and approaches are applied—cybernetics, marketing, management—to trap the masses into organized chaos, while they try to respond to the panic provoked by a transhumanist computer dictatorship based on biometrics, the all-digital, the vaccine pass, and eventually the suppression of cash and privacy.

    Dismissals such as "boys will be boys" and "not all men" are ingrained in our world. And the purity culture of our youth sold the same excuses with a spiritual spin. Can we break the toxic cycle and recover a healthy identity for men? 
     
     
     
    In Non-Toxic Masculinity, Zachary Wagner tells men, "If you are in Christ, this is your problem—and you should be part of the solution." 
     
     
     
    Reflecting on his own coming of age in the purity culture movement and ongoing recovery from sexual shame, Wagner confronts harmful teaching from the American church that has distorted desire, sex, relationships, and responsibility. For those—both men and women—who feel disillusioned and adrift, this book offers a renewed vision for Christian male sexuality founded in empathy and selflessness.

    The Eurasian Century - Hot Wars...

    We often think of the modern era as the age of American power. In reality, we're living in a long, violent Eurasian century. That giant, resource-rich landmass possesses the bulk of the global population, industrial might, and potential military power. Eurasia is a strategic prize without equal—which is why the world has been roiled, reshaped, and nearly destroyed by clashes over the supercontinent. 
     
     
     
    Since the early twentieth century, autocratic powers have aspired for dominance by seizing commanding positions in the world's strategic heartland. Offshore sea powers, namely the United Kingdom and America, have sought to make the world safe for democracy by keeping Eurasia in balance. America's rivalries with China, Russia, and Iran are the next round in this geopolitical game. If this new authoritarian axis succeeds in enacting a radically revised international order, America and other democracies will be vulnerable and insecure. 
     
     
     
    Hal Brands argues that a better understanding of Eurasia's strategic geography can illuminate the contours of rivalry and conflict in today's world. The Eurasian Century explains how revolutions in technology and warfare, and the rise of toxic ideologies of conquest, made Eurasia the center of twentieth-century geopolitics—with pressing implications for the struggles that will define the twenty-first.
