From the 1990s the British developed an interest in
natural burial, also known as woodland, green, or ecological
burial. Natural
burial constitutes part of a long, historical legacy for British
funeral
innovation; from Victorian cemetery monuments and garden cemeteries
through the
birth and rise of cremation to the many things done with cremated
remains. The
book sets natural burial in the context of such creative dealing
with death,
grief, mourning, and the celebration of life. Themes from sociology
and
anthropology combine with psychological issues and theological
ideas to show
how human emotions take shape and help people consider their own
death whilst
also dealing with the death of those they love.
The authors explore the variety of motivations for
people to engage with natural burial and its popular appeal, using
interviews
with people having a relationship with one natural burial site
created by the
Church of England but open to all. They illustrate people's
understandings of
life and death in the sacred, secular and mixed worlds of modern
Britain.
In 1919 Rudolf Steiner spoke about the future physical incarnation
of the being of Ahriman. This would take place before 'a part' of
the third millennium had passed, and was inevitable - but it was
also necessary that people were aware of this event and recognized
it, for earthly culture would be destroyed if the world were to
fall completely to Ahriman. The situation we find ourselves in
today shows Ahriman's unmistakable signature: the rapid destruction
of nature, zoonotic diseases and pandemics, huge social
inequalities, and the overall dominance of high finance. In this
short book Peter Selg presents a timely overview of the challenges
we face, beginning with a pithy and concise survey of Steiner's
commentary on Ahriman's incarnation and the conditions that would
characterize it. This is followed by a study of Ahriman's depiction
in the mystery drama The Souls' Awakening. Steiner's remarkable
personification of Ahriman on stage - portraying his strategies and
activities - provides vital instruction for humanity. Selg
concludes with an evaluation of 'the Battle for Human Intelligence'
taking place in contemporary culture through materialistic ideas
such as transhumanism. In their recent book Covid-19: The Great
Reset, for example, Klaus Schwab and Thierry Malleret propose
wholesale economic, geopolitical, environmental and technological
revisions to society - ideas that need to be understood and
confronted in human thought and consciousness. The Future of
Ahriman is a crucial aid to comprehending our times.

This is a collection of thirty-five spiritual discourses that
explains to the reader seeking truth that the end of fulfilment of
life is self-realisation through self-knowledge. Dr. Thind teaches
us how to transcend pain and pleasure and taste the source. He
explains that one must renew one's self, go back to his original
source, put a halt to the eternal flux, and enter divine presence,
there to be renewed by God's regenerative and sustaining powers and
come back to the natural world at will. This is the true meaning of
meditation.

What if we lived in a world of abundance? In the Beatitudes, Jesus
offers nine sayings that move us beyond our first instincts and
instead embrace the deeper reality of the kingdom of God. They name
the illusions and false beliefs that have kept us chained and
imprisoned. We've learned to live from a mentality of anxiety and
greed, but what if a world of abundance with solace and comfort are
actually near? We've learned to live by striving, competition, and
comparison, but what if we all have equal dignity and worth? Mark
Scandrette shows how the Beatitudes invite us into nine new
postures for life. Instead of living in fear, we can choose radical
love. It's often assumed that the good life is only for the most
wealthy, attractive, and powerful. Poor, sad, and suffering people
are left out. But the ninefold path of the Beatitudes is for
everyone. Whatever your story, whatever your struggle, wherever you
find yourself, this way is available to you.
"The Laws of Love" offers a rare in-depth look at the causes of
suffering and the way out of it. Drawing from many Wisdom
Traditions, the Course integrates the insights of Paul Ferrini's 30
books on Spirituality into a comprehensive and powerful whole. Like
a beautiful and intricately woven tapestry, the ten major spiritual
principles are described and illustrated. Paul's unique ability to
synthesise the wisdom of the Taoist, Zen, Sufi and Hasidic Masters
with the heart centred teachings of Jesus makes this material a
delight to encounter. Presented with absolute clarity, this
material will help you align your life with the highest teachings
available on the planet! The is a companion CD set.
'The day after my 35th birthday, I had a near death experience,
caused by a sudden brain haemorrhage. Ironically, this brush with
death became the conduit for the most powerful healing in my life.
I connected to an eternal light which, I came to realise, is
available to us all should we choose it. My wish for you in reading
this book is to feel this loving light, peace and joy in your life
now. The question is: how brightly do you wish to shine?' Roisin
Fitzpatrick In this ground-breaking book, Roisin Fitzpatrick takes
the reader on the remarkable journey of her near death experience,
and shares how we can all integrate the light and love of the
afterlife into our daily existence. In doing so, she lends fresh
insight into our ancient Irish myths and stone monuments,
connecting our past, present and future to this powerful eternal
light. Taking Heaven Lightly is a book to be cherished by all those
who wish to embrace and enjoy a meaningful life. 'A brilliant book
with an unforgettable message' Dr Chrisine Ranck, co-author of the
bestselling Ignite the Genius Within
Offers essays and dialogues by well-known Buddhist and Christian
scholars on topics that were of primary interest to Frederick J.
Streng, in whose honour the volume was created. Topics include
interreligious dialogue, ultimate reality, nature and ecology,
social and political issues of liberation, and ultimate
transformation or liberation.
'How can our souls unite with the etheric Christ, experienced in
the etheric world since the end of the last century? What steps
should we take, in the second century of the age of Michael, to
unite with Him?' At the centre of humanity's evolution stands the
Mystery of Golgotha, through which the Christ impulse entered the
earth. Anthroposophy, said Rudolf Steiner, was given at the
beginning of the last century to prepare for the second major
Christ event - the etheric Second Coming - beginning in 1933. This
Event is the portal that leads to the mighty and transformative
happenings taking place in the etheric world right now, enabling us
to meet the etheric Christ, Michael and Anthroposophia. At the
heart of this book is an existential question. Early in his
anthroposophical work, Ben-Aharon came to realize that without the
light of spiritual science, the meeting with the etheric Christ
remained simply a personal experience. Likewise, without the new
life forces streaming from the etheric Christ, anthroposophy was
merely a body of knowledge, frozen in time. Both needed each other.
But how was that mutually-enlivening bridge to be built? Speaking
candidly of his personal spiritual path and inner struggles of
consciousness, Ben-Aharon tackles this fundamental dilemma as a
prelude to the forthcoming, second edition of his book The New
Experience of the Supersensible. Contents include: The Ur-Phenomena
of the Modern Christ Experience, Paul's Christ Experience and the
Birth of Christian Platonism; The Michaelic Yoga; The
Platonic-Aristotelian Essence Exchange at the End of the Twentieth
Century; The Meeting with the Etheric Christ; The Abyss and the
Event of the Threshold; The Knowledge Drama of the Second Coming;
The Meeting with Michael; The Meeting with Anthroposophia.
The Burden Of Freedom explains that too many people use past
oppression to remain mired in hatred and irresponsibility today.
The spirit of oppression has specific telltale effects on
individuals, communities, and nations. These are identified by
Myles Munroe as a hatred for work, laziness, fear, low self-esteem,
selfishness, lack of creativity, low initiative, and distrust of
those in authority. To break free from these self-replicating
cycles of oppression there must be a mental transformation.
Paradoxically, freedom requires the need to impose control on self,
require more responsibility than slavery, and the decision to
accept a destiny of freedom, recognizing the process and discipline
that personal and political freedom require. Simply put, The Burden
Of Freedom should be available to every citizen and on the shelves
of every high-school, college, and community library in the
country.

Practical Wisdom in Management is the first in-depth case-study
book to explore how practical wisdom from spiritual and
philosophical traditions inspires corporate culture and leadership.
The outcome of the Practical Wisdom Initiative, between The Academy
of Business in Society (ABIS) and Yale University Center for Faith
and Culture, it seeks to construct a bridge between the worlds of
management and the spiritual and philosophical traditions. Covering
ten major worldwide religions, Theodore Malloch provides an
overview of the practical wisdom of the major faith traditions for
management. It includes case studies of over twenty multinational
corporations focusing on their values, spiritual inspiration and
business strategy. It features case studies on corporations
including: Ascension Health; Michelin; DANONE Group, Walmart; TOMS;
Marriott; HSBC; Four Seasons; Guangzhou Eversunny Trading and
Toyota. It is essential reading for business leaders, researchers
and students of business ethics and spirituality courses and
includes full teaching guidance.
In a major original study, Graham Maddox analyses the role of
religion in the development of democracy from the tribes of ancient
Israel to the present day. The book contrasts Athenian direct
democracy with the Old Testament monarchy in which the concept of
religious opposition - vital to modern democracy - arose. Maddox
then develops his discussion of the relationship between religion
and democracy through early christianity to the Reformation and
Calvinism, ending with a chapter on modern democracy. Maddox's
contentious thesis concerning the development of democracy is truly
interdisciplinary drawing on political science, religious history
and theology.
In Depression and the Soul, John Peteet proves the old adage that
the best physician is also a philosopher. He considers how to
approach the problem of depression within a larger context, and
reviews current concepts of successful living relative to the heart
(emotion and volition), the mind (cognition and coping), and the
soul (the self in relation to transcendent reality). Each chapter
goes on to further explore the relationship between depression and
the context of a patient's entire life. This is done through
consideration of how the existential struggles of depressed
individuals engage their spiritual lives, by reviewing current
empirical literature on depression and spirituality, comparing the
perspectives of various spiritual traditions or world views, and
summarizing ways that spirituality and depression interact.
Well known for his appearances on TV and radio, as well as for his
books Finding Sanctuary and Finding Happiness, Christopher Jamison
once again shows his ability to communicate spiritual insights in
an accessible way. Finding the Language of Grace: Rediscovering
Transcendence focuses on the transcendent experiences of grace that
we struggle to talk about in today's very business-like culture.
Abbot Christopher shows how the ways we listen and speak, read and
write can all be channels of grace. This is illustrated through
books as diverse as the medieval legend of the Holy Grail, Silence
by Japanese writer Shusaku Endo, the writings of Spanish mystics
and the novels of Pulitzer Prize winner Marilynne Robinson. The
power and the pain of grace resonate throughout the book, offering
a new perspective on healing the loneliness and mistrust
experienced by many, as well as on the turbulence and political
extremes of today's world. How do we restore trust? How can we
listen well? What is the right way to read the signs of the times?
And how can we revitalise the language of grace in our day?
