Ken Wilber

Autor: Frank Visser

Número de Páginas: 348

This is the definitive guide to the life and work of Ken Wilber, widely regarded as the most comprehensive and passionate philosopher of our times. In this long overdue exploration of Wilber's life and work, Frank Visser not only outlines the theories of this profound thinker, but also uncovers his personal life, showing how his experiences influenced and shaped his writing. Wilber's impressive body of work, including nineteen books in more than thirty languages, brings together science and religion, philosophy, art, culture, East and West, and places them within the all-encompassing perspective of evolution. Visser's book follows Wilber's four distinct phases as he reveals not only the story behind Wilber's writing, but also the man behind the ideas. In recounting the course of Wilber's life and the motives that led him to the subjects he has written so much about, Visser uncovers the intricacies of one of the world's most important intellectuals. Included in this indispensable resource is a complete bibliography of Wilber's work.

¿Por qué se es responsable jurídicamente?

Número de Páginas: 408

La aventura de conocer el significado de la responsabilidad, entendida como noci¢n propia y reveladora de la vigencia de un ordenamiento jur¡dico, e incluso como argumento demostrativo de la necesidad de que exista el ordenamiento jur¡dico, ser la noci¢n de sujeto jur¡dicamente responsable. La noci¢n de sujeto, situado en cada situaci¢n jur¡dica, operando o siendo afectado en cada situaci¢n jur¡dica, y cuyos actos son previstos por el conjunto de las normas jur¡dicas aplicables en un ordenamiento jur¡dico, es el facto imprescindible para que, cuando estudiemos la noci¢n de responsabilidad, no consideremos solamente algo que imaginamos abstractamente, sino algo que afecta concretamente a su sujeto.

Integral Theory in Action

Autor: Sean Esbjörn-hargens

Número de Páginas: 483

In a world as complex as ours, an integral approach is needed to help sort through a dynamic landscape and respond effectively to individual and collective challenges. Integral Theory in Action provides the first multi-authored overview of such an approach. Integral Theory is the result of 30 years of research and is being applied in over 35 distinct disciplines. This volume brings together two dozen leading scholar-practitioners who are actively applying integral principles and who address a range of issues from an integral perspective including: climate change, embodiment, feminist aesthetics, community discourse, treatment of depression, developmental theory, and global ethics. The strengths, limitations, and potential of Integral Theory and Ken Wilber's AQAL model are weighed by each contributor. This collection pushes the field of Integral Theory in new ways and new directions, and provides a comprehensive overview that makes it an invaluable resource for any integral effort.

Illuminism Contra Discordianism

Autor: Brother Cato

Número de Páginas: 493

"Philosophy is a battle against the bewitchment of our intelligence by means of language." – Wittgenstein. We use language to think, to talk to each other, to write, to form beliefs, religions, philosophies, and so on. But what if we are using the wrong language? Do we have "wrong thoughts" because we are using the wrong language? Do we have wrong religions and philosophies for exactly the same reason? What's the right language? If we could find the right language, could we then think correctly, without error, without delusion, without fantasy? Would the right language give us the right religion, the right philosophy? Would it explain reality to us? Discordians hate Truth. The struggle between the Discordians (in all their various forms) and the Illuminati is the most important there is. The soul of humanity is at stake. The Truth itself is the prize to be won or lost.

Integral Ecology

Autor: Sean Esbjorn-hargens, Ph.d. , Michael E. Zimmerman, Ph.d.

Número de Páginas: 835

Today there is a bewildering diversity of views on ecology and the natural environment. With more than two hundred distinct and valuable perspectives on the natural world—and with scientists, economists, ethicists, activists, philosophers, and others often taking completely different stances on the issues—how can we come to agreement to solve our toughest environmental problems? In response to this pressing need, Integral Ecology unites valuable insights from multiple perspectives into a comprehensive theoretical framework—one that can be put to use right now. The framework is based on Integral Theory, as well as Ken Wilber’s AQAL model, and is the result of over a decade of research exploring the myriad perspectives on ecology available to us today and their respective methodologies. Dozens of real-life applications and examples of this framework currently in use are examined, including three in-depth case studies: work with marine fisheries in Hawai’i, strategies of eco-activists to protect Canada’s Great Bear Rainforest, and a study of community development in El Salvador. In addition, eighteen personal practices of transformation are provided for you to increase...

Black Holes Are Souls

Autor: Mike Hockney

Número de Páginas: 616

Any theory – any theory at all – that begins with false assumptions will produce false results. Therefore, the most fundamental task of all is to examine and get right the assumptions that underlie a theory. How do science's fundamental assumptions stand up to scrutiny? Science falls apart at a particular aspect of existence that can be defined exactly – at singularities. The whole logic of science collapses when singularities are encountered. This is fantastically problematic for science given that black holes are centred on singularities, photons are singularities, and the whole of the Big Bang Universe came from a Singularity. What, ontologically, are singularities? Descartes gave us the answer hundreds of years ago. Singularities are minds, and from that single fact, science is turned on its head. Mind does not come from matter; matter comes from mind.

The God Secret

Autor: Mike Hockney

Número de Páginas: 429

Even God has an ultimate secret, and, since the dawn of time, humanity has sought to discover it. Our finest minds, noblest souls and most adventurous spirits have quested for the Holy Grail, the Philosopher's Stone and the mystical Blue Flower of transcendent perfection. Prometheus stole the fire of the gods to give to humanity, and suffered a terrible punishment for his beneficence and audacity. Faust obsessively pursued the infinite and unreachable, and was willing to pay any price, even if it cost him his soul. Lowest humanity gets on its knees and belly to "God". Highest humanity will never rest until it knows the Mind of God, and takes possession of the key to the innermost secrets of existence. This book provides the astonishing answer to the supreme question – what is the meaning of life? The answer is as wondrous as it ought to be. Despite appearances, we really do live in the best of all possible worlds, one that is gradually turning us into exactly what we want to be – the Gods themselves.

Is The Universe An App? Exploring the Physics of Awareness

Autor: Andrea Diem-lane , David Lane

Número de Páginas: 159

The idea that the world is an illusion which betrays its real origin has a long tradition and can be found in the writings of Hindu rishis, early Greek philosophers, and Christian gnostics. What is perhaps surprising is to find such a rich literature on the subject in neuroscience and quantum physics. The latest, and perhaps most provocative, idea to gain some currency in varying scientific disciplines is the hypothesis that the universe is the result of a computational simulation and, as such, is an incredibly rich and detailed illusion which has ultimately tricked us into believing otherwise.

Magic, Matter and Qualia

Autor: Mike Hockney

Número de Páginas: 429

Magic illusions are all about misdirection: making sure that the audience is looking away from what's really going on. For humanity, both religious faith and scientific materialism misdirect us away from truth and reality. Magicians claim to pull rabbits out of empty hats. The God of Abraham pulls a whole universe out of nothing whatsoever, while scientific materialism performs the greatest magic trick of all by abolishing God and pulling the entirety of existence out of its opposite – non-existence – through nothing other than a random accident, with no conceivable explanation or sufficient reason. Scientific materialism puts all magicians to shame. It manages to magic life out of lifeless atoms, and mind out of mindless atoms. That's some trick!

So Close to Freedom

Autor: Jean-luc E. Cartron

Número de Páginas: 255

During World War II many escape-line organizations contributed to the Allied cause by funneling hundreds of servicemen trapped behind enemy lines out of occupied Europe. As the Germans tightened their noose around the escape lines and infiltrated them, the risk of discovery only grew for the servicemen who, in ever-increasing numbers, needed safe passage across the Pyrenees. In early 1944 two important escape-line organizations operated in Toulouse in southwestern France, handing over many fugitives to French passeur Jean-Louis Bazerque (“Charbonnier”). Along with several of his successful missions, Charbonnier’s only failure as a passeur is recounted in gripping detail in So Close to Freedom. This riveting story recounts how Charbonnier tried to guide a large group of fugitives—most of them downed Allied airmen, along with a French priest, two doctors, a Belgian Olympic skater, and others—to freedom across the Pyrenees. Tragically, they were discovered by German mountain troopers just shy of the Spanish border. Jean-Luc E. Cartron offers the first detailed account of what happened, showing how Charbonnier operated, his ties with “the Françoise” (previously “Pat...

Aussi hautes soient les montagnes

Autor: Jean-luc Cartron

Número de Páginas: 12

Pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, de nombreux réseaux d’évasion ont contribué à la cause des Alliés en acheminant des milliers de personnes qui cherchaient à fuir l’Europe occupée par les nazis. Alors que la Gestapo resserrait sa surveillance allant même jusqu’à infiltrer ces réseaux, les risques d’arrestation ne cessaient d’augmenter pour ces fugitifs qui, en nombre toujours plus croissant, cherchaient à franchir les Pyrénées pour se rendre en Espagne. Début 1944, deux importantes organisations d’évasion opéraient dans le sud-ouest de la France, à Toulouse. Elles confièrent le sort de nombreux fugitifs à Jean-Louis Bazerque dit Charbonnier, un passeur français expérimenté qui, après de nombreuses missions réussies, subit un échec relaté minutieusement dans ce livre intitulé Aussi hautes soient les montagnes. Ce récit poignant raconte comment Charbonnier a tenté de guider un groupe de 35 fugitifs — des aviateurs alliés abattus au-dessus de l’Europe continentale pour la plupart — voyageant en compagnie d’un prêtre français, de deux médecins et d’un patineur olympique. Ils furent arrêtés à proximité de la frontière...

The Art of Multiculturalism

Autor: Roland Benedikter , Judith Hilber

Número de Páginas: 142

This book describes what an “art of multiculturalism” could be and how in turn multiculturalism could be conceived as a form of art. It focuses on the early and middle work of Indian-born U.S. writer Bharati Mukherjee, in particular on her understanding of the “fusion” of literature and painting as a tool to inspire the creation of a “new global society” by empowering minorities through fostering and multiplying “differences in unity” and “unities in difference”. The book includes, in condensed ways, an explanation of Mukherjee’s use of ancient Indian painting techniques for postmodern writing; and it provides a short introduction to the relation between multiculturalism, postmodernity and “imaginal politics”. The book is written in an easy to read style accessible to all interested in the topic: high school and university students and teachers; those generally interested in the interface between literature, the arts and politics; and specialists in multicultural studies and global and international studies. The book is particularly suited to use in teaching.

The Sam Harris Delusion

Autor: Mike Hockney

Número de Páginas: 466

There are two kinds of intellectual: Philosophers and Sophists. The former seek the absolute truth while the latter seek the "practical" truth that brings them worldly prestige and success. The weak-minded are far more influenced by Sophists than Philosophers, to the severe detriment of the intellectual progress of humanity. Philosophers have a position based on rationalism, idealism, metaphysics and mathematics, while Sophists hold a position reflecting empiricism, materialism, physics and science. One of the most prominent Sophists in today's world is Sam Harris, an American controversialist who supports scientism, atheism, and the claim that free will is illusory. All of his positions are closely connected, and the purpose of this book is to expose the fallacies that lie at the heart of the Sophists' worldview, and Harris's in particular. Ultimately, the difference between Philosophy and Sophistry reduces to the difference between mathematics and science, and how each relates to ultimate reality.

Moeten wij van elkaar houden

Autor: Bas Heijne

Número de Páginas: 104

Gelijkheid, tolerantie, rechtvaardigheid, solidariteit keer op keer worden mensen die deze abstracties hoog in het vaandel hebben staan, ontmaskerd als akelig hypocriet, als zogenaamd hoogstaande geesten die er een dubbele moraal op na houden. Daartegenover staan nu bij uitstek menselijke behoeftes: verwantschap, eigenheid, trots. Dat gaat gepaard met een verlangen naar een zuivere gemeenschap: Restore America, Trots op Nederland, Mut zur Heimat! Wat onder vuur ligt is het naoorlogse humanisme zelf. Waar komt de even heftige als wijdverbreide reactie tegen de geloofsartikelen van de westerse democratieën vandaan? Waarom denken steeds meer mensen dat hun vrijheid alleen gewaarborgd kan worden door het inperken van de vrijheid van anderen? Waarom staat de taal van de rechtstaat machteloos tegenover de taal van het populisme? Moeten de idealen van de Verlichting opnieuw tegen het licht worden gehouden? Een persoonlijke analyse van wat misschien wel het grootste vraagstuk van deze tijd is: de verstoorde verhouding tussen individu en samenleving.

El vínculo primordial

Autor: Daniel Taroppio

Número de Páginas: 705

EL VINCULO PRIMORDIAL es un viaje apasionante desde los orígenes del Universo hasta los dramas y maravillas de los encuentros y desencuentros humanos. Y en todo su recorrido se entreteje el tema central, del libro y de la vida, las vicisitudes del hombre y la mujer de nuestros días en su búsqueda del sentido y el amor. Todo lo que existe en el Universo como parte separada añora la unidad. En nosotros esa búsqueda se llama necesidad de encuentro. Daniel Taroppio propone una mirada del ser humano contemporáneo como heredero de una cultura que ha perdido la conciencia de sus raíces cósmicas. Como respuesta a esta situación, brinda herramientas concretas para recuperar el sentido de pertenencia universal de un modo vital, experiencial, no meramente conceptual. Sólo desde esta unidad interior podemos lanzarnos al encuentro sano con el otro. Junto a su rigor expositivo, ofrece métodos prácticos (Psicoterapia, Danza Primal, Comunicación Primordial, Meditación) para sanar la alienación y la soledad existencial, recuperando el vínculo con la vida. Invita al lector a recobrar su memoria ancestral, su "cuerpo cósmico", sus raíces vitales, su pasión, su savia universal. El...

Law and Popular Culture

Autor: Michael Asimow , Kathryn Brown , David Papke

Número de Páginas: 422

Commentators have noted the extraordinary impact of popular culture on legal practice, courtroom proceedings, police departments, and government as a whole, and it is no exaggeration to say that most people derive their basic understanding of law from cultural products. Movies, television programs, fiction, children’s literature, online games, and the mass media typically influence attitudes and impressions regarding law and legal institutions more than law and legal institutions themselves. Law and Popular Culture: International Perspectives enhances the appreciation of the interaction between popular culture and law by underscoring this interaction’s multinational and international features. Two dozen authors from nine countries invite readers to consider the role of law-related popular culture in a broad range of nations, socio-political contexts, and educational environments. Even more importantly, selected contributors explore the global transmission and reception of law-related cultural products and, in particular, the influence of assorted works and media across national borders and cultural boundaries. The circulation and consumption of law-related popular culture are...

Sherpa

Autor: Federico Martin Paz

Número de Páginas: 169

La búsqueda de la inmortalidad física es una de las aventuras centrales del pensamiento y de la literatura universal, comenzando con el primer texto escrito del que tenemos registro, la Epopeya de Gilgamesh. El presente libro es una aproximación filosófica y vivencial a este anhelo milenario. El autor sintetiza las diferentes vías que en China, el Tíbet, la India los seres humanos abrieron para alcanzarlo y examina las consecuencias de la adopción de una filosofía y una práctica inmortalistas. Federico Paz muestra que si incorporamos en nuestra vida la posibilidad de no morir, cambia drásticamente nuestra percepción de todos los ámbitos de la experiencia: la sexualidad, la mística, el uso de la tecnología, el compromiso social, etcétera. La inmortalidad interpenetra, entonces, las facetas de nuestra existencia. Este ágil ensayo atrapa al lector desde la primera página. Lo conduce tras las huellas de los inmortales y de quienes superaron otros retos que, en su momento, también parecían imposibles, como los ochomilistas del Himalaya, y muy en especial, el pueblo sherpa, que a lo largo del último siglo ha protagonizado una auténtica epopeya colectiva.
