Philosophy Consciousness

Среди изданных в эмиграции книг Н.А. Бердяева следует назвать Новое средневековье, О назначении человека, О рабстве и свободе человека, Русская идея, и, наконец, Самопознание, опубликованное посмертно. Самопознание — одно из последних произведений Бердяева, своеобразный итог его размышлений. Опыт философской автобиографии — так автор определил жанр своей книги, основными темами которой являются личность и время, личность и эпоха, личность и ее внутренняя свобода.

El arte de ser feliz es una pequeña joya literaria y un valioso libro de cabecera, que reúne cincuenta reglas para la vida que cualquier persona puede aplicar. Arthur Schopenhauer solía dedicarse a la redacción de pequeños tratados como este, a los que concebía como textos para su uso práctico personal.

Neste volume, Débora Morato Pinto analisa e expõe com clareza o modo como, na Modernidade, o tema da consciência é majoritariamente concebido em termos de rememoração, e investiga a novidade de Henri Bergson ao associar a consciência à memória e à vida, sem fazer dela uma coisa entre outras coisas, sem tampouco reduzir a vida psíquica à vida cerebral.

The goal of this book is not merely a study of the past. It also raises questions about the goal of human life and its amazing creative potentialities.

Is there something in these geniuses’ lives and works that we can apply to our present dilemmas? It’s certainly worth taking a closer look at the greatest geniuses in all of history.

Ruby Wax - comedian, writer and mental health campaigner - shows us how our minds can jeopardize our sanity. With her own periods of depression and now a Masters from Oxford in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy to draw from, she explains how our busy, chattering, self-critical thoughts drive us to anxiety and stress.

Every year, we are given a fixed number of days. Some days pass us by without leaving a trace and some days we remember forever. Do you remember your first kiss? Or how the first rays of the spring sun feel? Or how about the best meal you ever had? These memorable experiences are characterised by intensity of perception, depth of feeling or sense of profound significance causing them to stand out in our mind and involve a heightened sense of wonder and awe.

Science, by definition, is an open-ended approach to understand how the world works by observation, experimentation, and modeling. But underlining this human process is our ability to be wrong, to be corrected, and to change our views over time. While Francis Bacon (1561-1626) is often regarded as the first Western thinker to properly codify what is commonly known today as the scientific method, it may come as a surprise to learn that Jain philosophy, which dates back to before the 6th century BCE, has three core beliefs that are contributive and elemental for any budding scientist.

"Le titre de cette conférence est "L'âme et le corps", c'est-à-dire la matière et l'esprit, c'est-à-dire tout ce qui existe et même, s'il faut en croire une philosophie dont nous parlerons tout à l'heure, quelque chose aussi qui n'existerait pas. Mais rassurez-vous. Notre intention n'est pas d'approfondir la nature de la matière, pas plus d'ailleurs que la nature de l'esprit. On peut distinguer deux choses l'une de l'autre, et en déterminer jusqu'à un certain point les rapports, sans pour cela connaître la nature de chacune d'elles.

Pulitzer Prize winning reporter Penelope Drayton Spence has been hired by two of the world’s richest men to track down and interview enlightened people who may have arrived at the Fourth Awakening. The problem, as fast she can locate a potential candidate, they have a nasty habit of mysteriously vanishing. These Chronicles are written in the "Serial Novel" format Charles Dickens famously used for the “Pickwick Papers” and many of his later books.

This book provides a wide overview of Darwin's views on a variety of subjects. It also draws out some of the implications of his groundbreaking work on psychology and philosophy.

One of the deepest questions we can ask is: What happens after we die? For the past centuries, with the rise of scientific materialism, the prevailing answer to this has been: nothing. Bestselling author Daniel Pinchbeck (Breaking Open the Head, 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl) builds the philosophical foundation for a new understanding and acceptance of our existence as souls and spirits within a larger continuum of consciousness, connecting contemporary scientific knowledge with ancient esoteric and shamanic wisdom traditions.

Imagine that tomorrow you woke up, went out and won the lottery. Now imagine that tomorrow you woke up, went out and lost a limb. Which would make you happier? Amazingly, science suggests that after both of these scenarios, you would most likely return to the same happiness level as before within a relatively short window of time. The Fun Habit shows that fun, unlike happiness, is an action you can take almost anywhere, anytime. Fun is connected to behaviour and habits rather than goals, which means it’s possible to get more fun into your life with intention.

This is a book about Nothing. You could also say it’s a book about Everything. Most accurately perhaps, it’s a book about Nothing-as-Everything and Everything-as-Nothing. It takes as its spine an account of a specific experience that seemed to happen to me, during which there wasn’t very much “Me” around. There have been many names given to these kinds of “non-experiences”, depending on what tradition or viewpoint they are being seen from.
