Sinossi

In "The Natural State," U. G. Krishnamurti presents a profound exploration of the human condition, dissecting the very essence of thought and existence. Employing an unadorned yet penetrating literary style, Krishnamurti eschews complex philosophical jargon, favoring direct dialogue that invites the reader to question their own perception of reality. The book exists at the intersection of Eastern mysticism and Western philosophical inquiry, situating itself within the broader context of spiritual literature that challenges conventional beliefs, aiming to unveil the illusion of the self and the true state of being. U. G. Krishnamurti, a notable figure in the realms of non-duality and spiritual awakening, tirelessly engaged with themes of liberation throughout his life. His unique perspective stemmed from a deep, personal journey which questioned the very foundations of identity and thought. Dismissed by many traditional spiritual paths, he drew inspiration from a diverse range of influences—his unconventional insights challenge readers to confront their deeply held assumptions about existence, consciousness, and the nature of freedom. This book is an essential read for anyone navigating the complexities of modern life. Krishnamurti's radical simplicity and authenticity make "The Natural State" a transformative experience, encouraging readers to embark on their own quest for understanding. This work will invigorate those seeking clarity in a world filled with noise, inviting them to explore the profound silence of what it means to truly be.

Asatru For Beginners - A...

AMANDA XAVIER

Throughout the past decades, everyone associated Viking culture with a barbarian and hostile race. Lawless in nature, savage in rituals, and mindless in their actions. Not that the Vikings didn't invade and pillage their fair share of lands, but while they were a warring society, violence was not their identity. The misconception regarding Nordic peoples could be traced back in history to the Christianization of Scandinavia, the severe shortage of Scandinavian historical accounts, and the Christian historians' view of pagan religions. It was only in modern times when a few enthusiasts decided to dig a little deeper behind the popular image of Vikings. That is when they realized the buried treasure that is Norse mythology. They stumbled upon the Nordic belief that the universe is composed of nine realms, all resting safely on the branches of the universal tree, Yggdrasill. They also found the endless tales of gods like Odin, the wanderer, the all-father, the magician, and the God of poets. Thor, the thunderer and the protector of Asgard and mankind. Tyr, the God of justice and war formalities.
