The scene is a cobblestone road on the outskirts of Ancient Rome,
at about the time of Caesar. An impeccably uniformed young
Centurion drives a chariot erratically at full speed for a hundred
meters or so, then, he stops, gets out and kicks the bloody body
tied to the chariot. He again mounts the chariot, and whips the
horses to a sudden start hoping to break the neck of the victim and
bring this cruel ordeal to an end. Finally, the body fails to
respond to the kicks.
Standing beside the once handsome body of a powerful athlete,
but unseen to his executioner, is the indwelling spirit of Antonius
giving thanks to the gods that his ordeal is finally over. He takes
one last look at what had been his body, sadly turns his back on
the world of flesh with all its pain and blends with the light of
the unfamiliar realm of the gods.
For the past half-hour, Anne Armstrong, a petite young woman (my
wife, Anne Armstrong), affectionately known to her friends and
husband as Eddie, had lain upon a couch in the suburbs of
Sacramento, California nearly 2,000 years later, reliving every
excruciating moment of the torture.
Part II
"If I, Kundalini, appear reluctant, when you begin to re-direct me
to the higher centers, it is because I wish to experience the most
powerful expression of which I am capable. So I ask, how am I to be
used? If I am to move up the spine, will I be given the proper
encouragement and dedication that is necessary for me, Kundalini,
to achieve my purpose? If this is not a serious intent there will
be reluctance on my part to even listen. For I want to express
myself in the most powerful way. At a personality level I really
have no preference as to how I express myself-at the sexual level
or as illumination. I am energy and I want my potency to be used in
its entirely.
Originally published in 1967. Representing the viewpoints of
philosophers, psychologists, anthropologists, physicists,
psychoanalysts, parapsychologists, psychiatrists and biologists,
this volume discusses many aspects of ESP. The general theme is
that the phenomena is very valid and can no longer be ignored.
Do the fractious groups of Arabs and Israelis actually need each
other? Can the Pentagon find new enemies to replace the USSR? Are
married couples held together by a shared sense of enmity toward
outside parties and even each other? Who is more likely to
cultivate enemies - men or women? Is the "devil" a created enemy?
Is the need for enemies psychological, sociological, or biological?
These and other fascinating questions are explored by David P.
Barash as he skillfully combines findings from biology, psychology,
sociology, politics, history, and even literature to shed new and
unexpected light on the human condition.
Barash also offers startling and controversial observations about
who we are as human beings and why we seem to thrive on adversarial
relationships. He argues that we create and perpetuate our "enemy
system" by "passing the pain along" - from child abuse to ethnic
antagonism. We may well harbor a vestigial "Neanderthal mentality,"
which induces us to behave in ways that were adaptive in our
evolutionary past but which have broad and even global implications
today. Beloved Enemies concludes with a hopeful message: We can
overcome, not simply our enemies, but our need to have enemies, and
our penchant for creating them. To those who seek a better
understanding of the nature of conflict and to those who remain
confident that we can find answers to seemingly endless and complex
antagonisms, Beloved Enemies offers much food for thought.
Every week thousands of people in Europe and the USA consult
psychic practitioners. Communication is crucial to the performance
of psychic powers in a range of settings. Psychic practitioners use
language to demonstrate their powers, whether they are reporting
the words of their spirit contacts or interpreting the spread of
Tarot cards. Their clients also accept or reject this information
through talk. This book presents the first sustained study of the
verbal interaction between the various kinds of psychic
practitioners and their clients. Using conversation analysis, Robin
Wooffitt examines the structure of the interaction, focusing on the
ways in which psychic practitioners and their clients establish the
authenticity of the claimed paranormal powers. Adopting a neutral
standpoint towards the status of the claims of psychic
practitioners, the book raises important issues about the role of
social science in understanding the activities of psychic
practitioners and other kinds of parapsychological phenomena. This
highly original study will appeal to students and scholars of
discourse studies, and to sociologists interested in conversation
analysis. It is written in a style accessible to non-specialists,
and will also interest parapsychologists and social scientists
studying psychic phenomena and the paranormal.
