The Collected Works of Ramana Maharshi (9781597310048)

Gambar
This work contains almost everything written by Bhagavan Sri Ramana Maharshi, his inspired compositions, and a number of translations from ancient Advaitic texts, representing the essence of his teachings. They fall into two categories-those which exemplify the path of surrender through love and devotion to the Divine, and those which are more doctrinal. The first group included the Five Hymns to Sri Arunachala, of which the first poem, The Marital Garland of Letters, "is among the most profound and moving poems in any language" and expressses the attitude of the soul aspiring for union with God. Sri Bhagavan has affirmed that seekers who study these works are certain to attain the Bliss of Liberation. Product details Format Paperback ...

Extraordinary, Ordinary People : A Memoir of Family (0307888479)

Gambar
This is the story of Condoleezza Rice that has never been told, not that of an ultra-accomplished world leader, but of a little girl--and a young woman--trying to find her place in a sometimes hostile world, of two exceptional parents, and an extended family and community that made all the difference. Condoleezza Rice has excelled as a diplomat, political scientist, and concert pianist. Her achievements run the gamut from helping to oversee the collapse of communism in Europe and the decline of the Soviet Union, to working to protect the country in the aftermath of 9-11, to becoming only the second woman--and the first black woman ever--to serve as Secretary of State. But until she was 25 she never learned to swim, because when she was a little girl in Birmingham, Alabama, Commissioner of Public Safety Bull Connor decided he'd rather shut down the city's pools than give black citizens access. Throughout the 1950's, Birmingham's black middle class largely succeeded in...

The Trial of Anne Hutchinson : Liberty, Law, and Intolerance in Puritan New England (9781469670782)

Gambar
The Trial of Anne Hutchinson re-creates one of the most tumultuous and significant episodes in early American history: the struggle between the followers and allies of John Winthrop, governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and those of Anne Hutchinson, a strong-willed and brilliant religious dissenter. The controversy pushed Massachusetts to the brink of collapse and spurred a significant exodus. The Puritans who founded Massachusetts were poised between the Middle Ages and the modern world, and in many ways, they helped to bring the modern world into being. The Trial of Anne Hutchinson plunges participants into a religious world that will be unfamiliar to many of them. Yet the Puritans' passionate struggles over how far they could tolerate a diversity of religious opinions in a colony committed to religious unity were part of a larger historical process that led to religious freedom and the modern concept of separation of church and state. Their vehement commitment to their libe...

Guerra nucleare. Il giorno prima. Da Hiroshima a oggi: chi e come ci porta alla catastrofe (9788898582525)

Gambar
Sembra di vivere nel film The day after (1983), in quella cittadina del Kansas dove la vita scorre tranquilla accanto ai silos dei missili nucleari, con la gente che il giorno prima ascolta distrattamente le notizie sul precipitare della situazione internazionale, finché vede i missili lanciati contro l'URSS e poco dopo spuntare i funghi atomici delle testate nucleari sovietiche. Questo libro ricostruisce la storia della corsa agli armamenti nucleari dal 1945 ad oggi, sullo sfondo dello scenario geopolitico mondiale, contribuendo a colmare il vuoto di informazione creato ad arte su questo tema di vitale importanza. Si è diffusa la sensazione che una guerra nucleare sia ormai inconcepibile e si è creata di conseguenza la pericolosa illusione che si possa convivere con la Bomba. Ossia con una potenza distruttiva che può cancellare la specie umana e quasi ogni altra forma di vita. Lo possiamo evitare, mobilitandoci per eliminare le armi nucleari dalla faccia della Terra. Finché siamo ...
