Profile of the Human Condition (Hardcover): Dan Meehan Profile of the Human Condition (Hardcover)

In Profile of the Human Condition, the author takes direct aim at currently held positions on science, philosophy, and religion by closely examining the facts. Convinced that there is an underlying simplicity to complicated and vague issues that beguile our thinking, he set out to find a simple formula that provides answers. How we have learned what we have learned and become what we have become begins with recognizing we are part of a universe comprised of three of something at every level, hence, the term Triology. Scientific, philosophical, and religious ideas, theories, and beliefs are challenged and shown to be not only wrong, but aberrations of truth and common sense. Principle among these concepts are intelligence and time, concepts that have been presented in confusing and vague terms, leading to greater confusion and fallacies. While the author does not present new facts, his application is fresh, clear, and simple, not resorting to mystical concoctions.

R2,222 Discovery Miles 22 220 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The authors of these papers vary in age, nationality and professional background. They share a belief that all too often older people are not treated justly or fairly, and also a belief that this is particularly true with regard to a proper respect for their dignity as people and a proper allocation of medical and social resources. Their papers, in various ways, give evidence as to what is happening and arguments, based on philosophical ethics, as to why it is wrong. The authors also have a range of proposals, backed by argument and evidence, and drawing on factual material as well as philosophical argument, as to what could be done to improve the situation. This is a book for anyone, whether themselves elderly, looking after an older person, professionally involved in working with older people, or simply realising that one day they will be old, who wants to learn about what is wrong with the present situation and how it might be made better.

Life is all about being successful and happy. Many of us have everything and yet find the real happiness missing. We are constantly in pursuit of that joy which has eluded us forever, thus far. When we realize our true nature and origin, it enables our progression towards attaining a happy and fearless state in life. Each one of us is a divine Soul; unborn, unchanging, immutable and eternal; an inseparable potency of that Supreme God, who dwells in us eternally. Though each one of us has the potential to experience a divine existence, being immortals, we have chosen to take birth in this mortal world; taking birth to die and dying to take birth again, in some 8.4 million bodies. There is a mismatch in what is happening to us. We are immortals, but the bodies we acquire in this world are not. We can attain the divine, eternal world of God, if we realize our imperishable relationship with God, who alone can grant us the state we all seek. With that realization, we can transcend causes and effects of this karmic world, overcoming grief and pain. We not only achieve material success, but also live a useful life, for the self, for our families and for the society.

This is an autobiographical sketch of selected events, with emphasis on church memberships and experiences, which affected my religious philosophy that evolved into my present convictions that all major world religions and their underlying written documentation are the works of men, to some of whom divine inspiration is attributed; that their deities are either nonexistent fabrications of the authors, interpreters, and practitioners of their particular religions, or human beings who claim to be divine, or prophets of a deity or deities, or who were determined by their followers to be such; and some related essays.

With deep reading in myth and literature, one's cognition becomes as a rich mother loam wherein spirit can dwell and build that interior castle, from which the indwelling spirit begins to speak through the imagination, the body, and the intellect of the individual. Over time, body, mind, and spirit become one. Then this 'one' can and often does experience the merging within the One.
Through the merging of intuition and intellect, we will comprehend the acceleration of consciousness that is overtaking us. Functioning within a state of universal awareness of our oneness will, in the long run, prove to be much easier than defining ourselves into small groupings of discordant persons and nations. The education and evolution of vibrant communities is our beginning task. The creation of a world with a universal consciousness of oneness is our ultimate realization.
"To act in accord, to make a bridge to new ways of thinking, and in the belief that the reported experiences of individual journeys in our studies, and in our consciousness, can be of great significance now-at this point in time with the world in a general state of confrontation and conflict-we offer this report from our own research and from within this frame of reflection."

"The First Pancake" provides guidance for those undergoing a life transition using an original, understandable pancake metaphor that normalizes the transition process and encourages the reader to strive for more delectable pancakes.

Tory Wilcox is a psychotherapist who provides the ingredients for managing life changes through the five stages one goes through when enjoying a batch of pancakes: the wake-up call, then the first pancake, through the blender to the perfect pancake, and finally digestion. The wake-up call encourages an examination of initial life decisions like careers and life partners. Wilcox asks us to pitch the less fulfilling pancakes or choices and start over, causing our emotions to be tossed around in a blender. Once we have realized more perfect pancakes, we can digest the changes, feel confident about making more rewarding choices and remember to keep adding to our stack. Wilcox offers concrete coping tools, self-help exercises, and resource recommendations along with real-life examples and proven strategies.

Through her innovative approach to teaching others how to successfully handle inevitable life transitions, Wilcox provides comfort and empowerment to those who believe self-fulfillment can be achieved in life through a new way of thinking and acting about change.

As long as the human race battles with an internal need to judge and discriminate against others, chances and opportunities will continue to favor and disfavor individuals and groups differently. Playing God shares a discourse for those with an inquisitive mind and those struggling to reconcile the puzzles in life with such relatable topics as nature, religion, morality, global politics, power, control, greed, and many others. Brown Ogwuma, a clinical social worker, has worked in the human services field for twenty years and appreciates philosophy and original thinking. He shares his practical glimpse at life that he hopes will encourage others to take a realistic approach to the way they live their own lives. In his reflections that stem from the complexities and convoluted nature of life, Ogwuma discusses concrete and actual situations-both his own as well as those of other people-in order to explore and advocate ideas and principles beyond the ordinary. In its no-nonsense study of the authenticity of life, Playing God lets others know that seeing life in an unconventional way can free us to structure our lives so that the meaningful takes precedence over what others expect of us.

Henri Bergson was a great French philosopher whose life overlapped that of Charles Darwin. He had serious concerns about Darwins atheistic concept of man and animals evolution. Bergson also presented ideas of Intelligent Design almost 200 years prior to it's regeneration in the 20th century. My book separates God from Evolution of the cosmos and all it contains by espousing the "elan vitale" as "of God" and the true creater of the Universe.
