Between the Dark and the Daylight
Author: Joan Chittister

ISBN: 0804140944
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 177
Book Description
“There is a part of the soul that stirs at night, in the dark and soundless times of day, when our defenses are down and our daylight distractions no longer serve to protect us from ourselves,” writes beloved author, Joan Chittister. “It’s then, in the still of life, when we least expect it, that questions emerge from the damp murkiness of our inner underworld…These questions do not call for the discovery of data; they call for the contemplation of possibility.” In words as wise as they are inspiring, Between the Dark and the Daylight explores the concerns of modern life, of the overworked mind and hurting heart. These are the paradoxical—and often frustrating—moments when our lives feel at odds with everything around us. Only by embracing the contradictions, Chittister contends, may we live well amid stress, withstand emotional storms, and satisfy our yearnings for something transcendent and real. By delving into the chaos, this book guides us through the questions that seemed easier to avoid and enlightens what has been out of focus. With her signature elegance, wit, and spirit, the bestselling author of The Gift of Years and Following the Path opens our eyes and hearts in these times of confusion. With simple and poignant meditations, Between the Dark and the Daylight reveals how we can better understand ourselves, one another, and God.

The Darkness and the Light
Author: Charles Hartshorne
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 9780791403389
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 452
Book Description
In this book Charles Hartshorne continues his contribution to the field with autobiographical reflections, showing the causal conditions which made his career possible. There is some advantage in associating philosophical beliefs with specific life situations. The reader will find suggestions for a philosophy of life and of religion. The religion is not the orthodox Protestant Christianity which I grew up in, although it is closely related, but also includes Judaism, Buddhism, and some forms of Hinduism. It will in some ways be found close to the beliefs of C.S. Peirce and also those of A.N. Whitehead. Of the persons, famous or not famous, that I have known, I recall many things that seem worth making available to others, sometimes witty remarks, expressions of outstanding goodness, remarkable wisdom, or ludicrous foolishness. In such ways the book is a celebration of life in its variety, depths, and heights. Charles Hartshorne

The Dark Between Stars
Author: Atticus
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1982104880
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
From the internationally bestselling author of Love Her Wild comes The Dark Between Stars, a new illustrated collection of heartfelt, whimsical, and romantic poems from Instagram poetry sensation, Atticus. Atticus, has captured the hearts and minds of nearly 700k followers (including stars like Karlie Kloss, Emma Roberts, and Alicia Keys). In his second collection of poetry, The Dark Between Stars, he turns his attention to the dualities of our lived experiences—the inescapable connections between our highest highs and lowest lows. He captures the infectious energy of starting a relationship, the tumultuous realities of commitment, and the agonizing nostalgia of being alone again. While grappling with the question of how to live with purpose and find meaning in the journey, these poems offer both honest explorations of loneliness and our search for connection, as well as light-hearted, humorous observations. As Atticus writes poignantly about dancing, Paris, jazz clubs, sunsets, sharing a bottle of wine on the river, rainy days, creating, and destroying, he illustrates that we need moments of both beauty and pain—the darkness and the stars—to fully appreciate all that life and love have to offer.

Creation—Path of the Soul
Author: John Michael Paul

ISBN: 150434040X
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 122
Book Description
We were never intended to be dominated by all the negation and inharmony that exists in the world. We were fashioned, equipped, and given power for one purpose only, and that is to transmute every negative and inharmonious condition which exists in the world. Yet, we find very few that know this is the reason for which we were created. We do not know what our true purpose is because we do not know the real foundation of our being and are not familiar with the laws of creation. We do not understand the reasoning behind the things we do in our metaphysical rituals and practices. By studying creation, we receive all the answers. CreationPath of the Soul gives an understanding of creation from the Void, to the Cosmic, to the Cosmos, down to our very soul, so we can understand what the will of the Cosmic is and what the meaning of life and our purpose in being are. CreationPath of the Soul, uses the Kabbala to go through creation step-by-step, making creation easy to understand. By understanding the laws of creation, more questions are answered than are asked. CreationPath of the Soul, looks into such topics as astral travel, the Akashic records, reincarnation, cause and effect, the conscious, subconscious and superconscious minds, and other metaphysical areas of interest. CreationPath of the Soul, has practical exercises for astral travel, reading the Akashic records for past life regression, coordinating the conscious and subconscious minds to increase intuition and transmuting the darkness.
