The Teaching of the Buddha: Being Happy Now By David Paul Boaz
2020 | 373 Pages | ISBN: 1947637533 | EPUB | 1 MB
The reach of this engaging and very readable book is as unique as it is profound. Its scope involves the reader in an integral, yet non-scholarly coming to meet of the freeing, subjective non-conceptual wisdom of the East with the pragmatic objective conceptual knowledge of the West. The result is a potential personal and collective unification of our two human cognitive voices-exoteric objective material, and esoteric subjective spiritual-the prior and present unity of Science and Spirit.This often-amusing book will serve its readers as a brief, directly experiential introduction to the profound teaching of the Buddha of this present age-Siddhartha Gautama The Buddha. This is a book that will immediately enhance the reader's awakening to "innermost" human happiness by taming "the wild horse of the mind" through calming, selfless mindfulness practice. From this peaceful inner space, the reader will quickly learn to open and directly connect to the "always already present" Presence of bright indwelling Buddha heart/Buddha mind, by whatever name, concept, or belief.This is an important book. It will benefit both fully engaged Buddhist practitioners and non-practitioners alike. A bit surprisingly, it is also a book for philosophers of physics and cosmology, and for students of metaphysics, philosophy of mind and consciousness studies who wish to integrate their Western understanding with the profundity of Buddhist ontology and epistemology. Thus, will the specialist reader be referred to some mildly scholarly appendices.The reader will in these pages engage such diverse themes as The Prior Unity of Science and Spirit; Quantum Nonlocality and Buddhist Emptiness; Buddhist Dzogchen; The Primordial Unity of Self and No-Self; and The Buddhist View of Human Happiness.Dr. David Paul Boaz (Dechen Wangdu) is Founding Director of Copper Mountain Institute, Inc., a tax-exempt Buddhist Temple and Research Institute. He has taught philosophy and religious studies for over forty years. David is author of four books and over fifty articles and essays (visit davidpaulboaz.org). He has been a student of Dzogchen Master Adzom Rinpoche since 1999.

The Temporality of Festivals: Approaches to Festive Time in Ancient Babylon, Greece, Rome, and Medieval China
by Anke Walter
English | 2024 | ISBN: 3111364860 | 101 Pages | PDF | 20 MB

How can time become festive? How do festivals manage to make time 'special', to mark out a certain day or days, to distinguish them from 'normal', everyday time, and to fill them with meaning? And how can we reconstruct what festive time looked like in the past and what people thought about it?
While a lot of research has been done on festivals from the point of view of several scholarly disciplines, the specific temporality of festivals has not yet attracted sufficient attention. In this volume, scholars from different fields provide answers to the questions raised above, based on a fresh analysis of astronomical documents, calendars, and literary texts. Cultures as diverse as ancient Babylon, Greece and Rome, and medieval China all share a sense of calendrically recurring festive time as something special that needs to be carefully mapped out and preserved, often with great sophistication, and that gives us precious insights into the broader religious, political, and social dimensions of time within past cultures.

The Terrifying Realm of the Possible: Nearly True Stories by Brett Gelman
English | March 19, 2024 | ISBN: 0063315971 | True EPUB | 272 pages | 3.4 MB
A daring, hilariously neurotic literary debut from the acclaimed actor and comedian Brett Gelman (Stranger Things, Fleabag).

Enter the wonderfully weird, always uncomfortable, side-splittingly funny world of The Terrifying Realm of the Possible, where your worst fears of who you are or might become are always just around the corner. In these masterful short stories from the singular mind of the actor and comedian Brett Gelman, you'll meet five individuals, each navigating a uniquely strange stage of life:
- ABRAHAM AMSTERDAM (the child)
- MENDEL FREUDENBERGER (the teenager)
- JACKIE COHEN (the adult)
- IRIS BELOW (the senior)
- Z (the dead)
Our characters face the big issues; the ones we all face. As they traverse the prickly terrain of morality, family, sex, fame, religion, and death they search for answers to life's unanswerable questions. In the futility of that search comes the absurdity, along with the comedy. The composite portrait is an existential (mis)adventure of Rothian proportions. Gelman's remarkable first book is a bold, unforgettable debut that challenges our assumptions about what it means to be human.

The Theologian's Enterprise: A Very Short Introduction By Aidan Nichols, O.P.
2020 | 102 Pages | ISBN: 1621643034 | EPUB | 1 MB
In this brief guide, the internationally acclaimed theologian and Dominican priest, Fr. Aidan Nichols seeks to explain the approach to Catholic theology which he has worked out in the course of nearly forty years of publishing books and articles in the service of the Church.He looks at the nature of theology, at its status as a science that is also a wisdom, at its intrinsic principles and methods, its sources, its sub-divisions, and, not least, the qualities which the budding theologian must make his own if theol- ogy is to be authentically Christian and Catholic and assist rather than hinder the Church's mission.In a time of considerable confusion in the intellectual life of the Catholic Church, arising not only from professors but hierarchs, The Theologian's Enterprise offers comprehensive counsel to those setting out in the study of their faith, perhaps for the first time, with solid advice on the habits of mind theology requires. The text seeks to combine profundity with brevity. It would be difficult to find a more concise guide in any language.

Daniel C. Timmer, "The Theology of the Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah "
English | ISBN: 1108468691 | 2024 | 306 pages | PDF | 2 MB
The books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah address problems in and around ancient Judah in ways that are as incisive and critical as they are optimistic and constructive. Daniel C. Timmer's The Theology of the Books of Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah situates these books in their social and political contexts, examining the unique theology of each as it engages thorny problems in Judah and beyond. In dialogue with recent scholarship, this study focuses on these books' analysis and evaluation of the world as it is, focusing on both human beings and their actions, and God's commitment to purify, restore, and perfect the world. Timmer also surveys these books' later theological use and cultural reception. His study brings their theology into dialogue with concerns as varied as ecology, nationalism, and widespread injustice. It highlights the enduring significance of divine justice and grace for solid hope and effective service in our world.

The Thing about Religion: An Introduction to the Material Study of Religions by David Morgan
English | April 12, 2021 | ISBN: 1469662833 | True EPUB | 268 pages | 28.5 MB
Common views of religion typically focus on the beliefs and meanings derived from revealed scriptures, ideas, and doctrines. David Morgan has led the way in radically broadening that framework to encompass the understanding that religions are fundamentally embodied, material forms of practice. This concise primer shows readers how to study what has come to be termed material religion-the ways religious meaning is enacted in the material world.

Material religion includes the things people wear, eat, sing, touch, look at, create, and avoid. It also encompasses the places where religion and the social realities of everyday life, including gender, class, and race, intersect in physical ways. This interdisciplinary approach brings religious studies into conversation with art history, anthropology, and other fields. In the book, Morgan lays out a range of theories, terms, and concepts and shows how they work together to center materiality in the study of religion. Integrating carefully curated visual evidence, Morgan then applies these ideas and methods to case studies across a variety of religious traditions, modeling step-by-step analysis and emphasizing the importance of historical context. The Thing about Religion will be an essential tool for experts and students alike.

Jesse P. Nickel, "The Things that Make for Peace: Jesus and Eschatological Violence "
English | ISBN: 311070241X | 2021 | 325 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
This study offers fresh insight into the place of (non)violence within Jesus' ministry, by examining it in the context of the eschatologically-motivated revolutionary violence of Second Temple Judaism.

The book first explores the connection between violence and eschatology in key literary and historical sources from Second Temple Judaism. The heart of the study then focuses on demonstrating the thematic centrality of Jesus' opposition to such "eschatological violence" within the Synoptic presentations of his ministry, arguing that a proper understanding of eschatology and violence together enables appreciation of the full significance of Jesus' consistent disassociation of revolutionary violence from his words and deeds.

Sir Richard J. Evans FBA FRSL FRHistS, "The Third Reich in History and Memory"
English | ISBN: 0349140758 | 2016 | 496 pages | AZW3 | 655 KB
In this fascinating and enlightening collection of essays, one of the most important historians of our time reflects on the ways our understanding of Nazi Germany have been transformed in the twenty-first century.

Richard Evans examines new historical perspectives on the Third Reich, such as showing how it is increasingly viewed in a broader international - even global - context, as part of the age of imperialism. He investigates how Nazi policies in Europe drew on Hitler's image of the American colonisation of the Great Plains, how companies like Volkswagen and Krupp operated on a global scale and - perhaps most controversial of all - how historians have come to see the Holocaust not as a unique historical event but as a genocide with parallels and similarities in other countries and at other times. THE THIRD REICH IN HISTORY AND MEMORY explores how these new perspectives have brought dividends, but also offers a critical perspective on the ways they are changing our perception of the period.

Nasser Abourahme, "The Time beneath the Concrete: Palestine between Camp and Colony"
English | ISBN: 1478031441 | 2025 | 248 pages | PDF | 4 MB
In The Time beneath the Concrete, Nasser Abourahme argues that settler colonialism is always as much an attempt to conquer time as it is to conquer land. Taking as his primary object Palestinian refugee camps, created in the fallout of the eliminatory violence of Israel's founding, Abourahme shows how these camps become the primary place where settler colonial attempts to dominate space and time encounter Indigenous refusal. Seen from the camps, Israel becomes a settler colonial project defined by its inability to move past the past-a project stuck at its foundational moment of conquest. At the same time, the Palestinian insistence on return is a refusal to abide by the closure of the past into settler futurity. Palestinian struggle does not just happen in the open time of dispossession; it happens over this time. That struggle, Abourahme demonstrates, is a form of anticolonial refusal that draws its power not from any decisive finality, but precisely from irresolution and keeping time open.

The Tomb of the Vizier Rē'-Wer at Saqqara
by Said El-Fikey
English | 2024 | ISBN: 8888570896 | 88 Pages | True ePUB | 15.5 MB

Provides a detailed description and interpretation of a lesser-known tomb forming part of the major pyramid and temple complex of Teti at Thebes.
The tomb of Rē'-wer lies in the south-eastern corner of the mortuary temple of King Teti, first King of the 6th Dynasty, beside the pyramid of Teti, in the Old Kingdom necropolis at Saqqara. Excavations in 1906-7 and in the early 1920s were not published and the tomb was re-excavated and partly restored in 1975-7. It comprised a paved courtyard within a temenos containing the rectangular chapel tomb, with surviving structure built of fine quality limestone blocks in inner and outer walls. It is unusual in having two false doors in the west wall. The roof was missing. Nothing was recovered from a burial shaft that lies close to the tomb. The walls and false doors are adorned with inscriptions and reliefs. This facsimile reissue of Amer el-Fikey detailed description of the surviving structure, decoration and transcription of the inscriptions is accompanied by a full set of photographs and illustrations. No biographical text survived and the author considers the possible date of the tomb in relation to the adjacent architecture and the style of the reliefs, concluding that it most likely dates to the reign of Pepi I. He discusses indications for the personality, family situation and official position of Rē'-wer, which may suggest that he was father to a wife of King Pepi and that both were disgraced for some reason.

Yossi Katz, "The Tombstone in Israel's Military Cemetery since 1948: Israel's Transition from Collectivism to Individualism"
English | ISBN: 3110307987 | 2014 | 437 pages | EPUB | 7 MB
Military cemeteries are one of the most prominent cultural landscapes of Israel. Their story reflects largely the main social processes that Israeli society has been undergoing since the War of Independence (1948) until today. Until the end of the 1970s, the military tombstones and their surroundings were uniform and equal, according to rules set by the State. However, since the 1980s families of the fallen soldiers started to add on the tombstone personal expressions, as well as personal objects, photographs, military artifacts etc. Thus the military tombstone and the Israeli military cemetery became one of the expressions of the dramatic transformation, from a society which emphasized the importance of the collective, to a society which intensifies the significance of the individual. The book is based on many archival documents, as well as interviews and photographs, all of which shed light on one of the most sensitive issues in Israeli society and express its importance as a central component of Israeli identity.
