  Has the US strategy in Ukraine reached an impasse? What is the Russian conduct of military operations? When will the Ukrainian counter-offensive take place? Does Western weaponry really make a difference in Ukraine? Who are the winners of this war? What changes in the world are we witnessing since February 24, 2022? What is the reality of the losses on the Ukrainian and Russian sides? Can Western industry compete with Russian industry in Ukraine? Why is a negotiated solution not being sought? How is our perception of the conflit serving Ukraine?
  
  To answer these questions and many others, Jacques Baud relies on information from Western intelligence services and American documents that were leaked in April 2023. After the best-sellers Putin, Game Master? and Operation Z, both works praised world-wide, Baud returns to the war in Ukraine by analyzing the facts and nothing but the facts. Whether one is for or against the position of Ukraine, one must nevertheless deal with the field of operations and to analyze what is happening there. This is the only way to find a path to peace—because peace will not come by relying on illusions.

  Rama Speaks - The Teachings of...

  “You don’t need a teacher perpetually. You need them to show you how to get through the doorway, but once you get through the doorway, you’re on your own. Then you have to grow and experience Enlightenment. Then you come back—if you want to go through a higher doorway—and so on and so on. They show you how to refine yourself until you’re able to enter into nirvana on your own. Then no more teacher. Guess what? Only Enlightenment everywhere.” Rama-Dr. Frederick Lenz, 1992 
  We think that the classic Enlightenment of the Buddha is far beyond our reach. What if it wasn’t? 
  As more and more people have found meditation and mindfulness beneficial, there has been little information on the underlying process, which Dr. Frederick Lenz (1950-1998), known to his students as Rama, called “self-discovery.” Self-discovery is the pathway to enlightenment, in which you realize that your ego is like an island in the middle of an ocean. Each meditation is taking a swim in that ocean. Self-discovery is becoming the ocean. While many of the things he taught can be found in spiritual books, many cannot, and none all in the same place. 
  At its core, this book presents the self-discovery process. Rama recorded 120 talks for his students covering it; the book's nearly 200 excerpts are him speaking to his students. Each chapter is devoted to an interdependent group of topics and presents the different aspects that he emphasized at different times, so that you get a complete picture. The chapters are arranged in a developmental order, beginning with the basics and culminating in the samadhis. 
  "Beyond the world of thought and sensorial impressions, there are planes and dimensions of perfect light, knowledge and radiant perfection. Meditation is simply a process of moving your awareness field from the awareness of this world, from the awareness of time and space, into eternity, into the eternal dimensions.” Rama-Dr. Frederick Lenz, 1992

  Critical Theory - Challenging...

  Critical theory is an interdisciplinary approach designed to critique and transform society rather than merely understanding it. Originating from the Frankfurt School in the early 20th century, with key figures like Max Horkheimer, Theodor Adorno, and Herbert Marcuse, critical theory examines how power structures, ideologies, and social conditions shape human experiences. 
    
  The scope of critical theory includes an analysis of historical and social contexts that give rise to various forms of domination and oppression. It investigates how historical events and social structures influence contemporary practices and ideologies. A significant focus is on power dynamics and ideological constructs that perpetuate inequality and social injustice, scrutinizing how power operates across politics, economy, and culture. 
    
  Critical theory employs an interdisciplinary approach, integrating insights from philosophy, sociology, political science, and cultural studies to provide a comprehensive analysis of social phenomena. It also critiques modernity and its associated ideologies, such as capitalism and positivism, challenging the assumptions and values underlying these systems.

  Hope by Terry Fox

  Featuring excerpts from Terry’s very own Marathon of Hope journal, Hope by Terry Fox shares the untold story of a well known hero — the goofy, resilient, and courageous 21-year-old who rallied a nation behind his mission.
  		 
  In 1976, when Terry Fox was just eighteen years old, he was diagnosed with osteosarcoma and his right leg was amputated just above the knee. It quickly became his mission to help cure cancer so others would not have to endure what he had gone through. He dreamed up a Marathon of Hope — a fundraising run across Canada, from St. John’s, Newfoundland, to Victoria, British Columbia. 5,300 miles.
  		 
  When he set off on April 12, 1980, Canadians were dubious. But as he continued across the country, enthusiasm grew to a frenzy. Sadly, Terry’s cancer returned, and after 143 days and 3,339 miles, he was forced to stop his Marathon of Hope. He passed away in 1981, but the nation picked up his mission where he left off, and the annual Terry Fox Run has even spread to cities around the world, raising more than $850 million to date — well over Terry’s goal of one dollar for every Canadian.
  		 
  After conducting over fifty interviews with people throughout Terry’s life — ranging from his siblings, nurses, and coaches to volunteers during the Marathon of Hope — editor Barbara Adhiya discovers how Terry was able to run a marathon a day. Through their stories, passages from Terry’s marathon journal, and over 200 photos and documents, Hope by Terry Fox shows that with enough resilience, determination, humility, and support, ordinary people can do impossible things.

  Philosophy for Beginners How to...

  Philosophy - the term sounds fascinating, beautiful, somehow romantic and harmonious, and at the same time like great intellectual effort. Yet philosophy is actually neither particularly romantic nor particularly strenuous.
  It is true that one has to use one's brain, and perhaps some things exceed normal common sense, but basically philosophy only means to be interested in man and the world. The image one has in one's mind of ancient Greek philosophers strolling in their long robes in the Athenian sun while exchanging their thoughts may seem romantic, but they often dealt with serious topics and many did not only make friends with their sometimes revolutionary thoughts.
  In this guide, I would like to give you a first insight into the great subject of philosophy and also bring it closer to you in a practical way. After an explanation of what philosophy is exactly and what it deals with concretely, I would like to introduce you not only some important philosophical currents and wisdoms of the philosophers, but also give you some exercises and tips on the way so that you can easily integrate philosophy into your life.
