Ten Contemplations
Author: Gordon LaFargue
Publisher: The Press at Thornton Field
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 34
Book Description
Take a break from frenetic activity to ponder. There is too much doing and not enough thinking. It has always been that way. Nearly everyone has been out in the world trying to "get things done" since before recorded history. And if you stop such people to ask them if they've thought seriously about whether what they are getting done really needs to be done, they hurry away, breathlessly muttering about not having time for navel-gazing. Pondering makes your actions more purposeful. But the truth is that activity will only be good by chance if you don't take a break to think about what you're doing. To spend a few minutes a day pondering whether what you're doing is really worth doing can't hurt anything, can it? Contemplating for insight This little book provides ten starter contemplations for insight. As the introduction says, "Read one contemplation every now and then, and ruminate. After you’ve gone through all of them, take some time off, and then pick up one again. You’ll find that you probably think differently about it. This is the beginning of a lifelong process of deliberate thinking that can offset some of the hectic doing that takes up so much of our days." Take a break Take a break from doing and think a little bit. It really can help you to see your life in a new light.

The Books of Contemplation
Author: Mark Verman
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438422881
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 283
Book Description
The earliest medieval Jewish mystical writings, or kabbalah, date from the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. This is the first book to focus on the most prodigious group active at that time—the 'Circle of Contemplation'. The 'Circle of Contemplation' generated a mystical theology that differs radically from mainstream kabbalistic theosophy. Two of this group's penetrating speculations on God and the origins of the universe are The Book of Contemplation and The Fountain of Wisdom. A meticulous and systematic study of these writings forms the core of this book. Verman discovered that the 'Circle of Contemplation' produced a series of distinct treatises, each entitled The Book of Contemplation and attributed to the same fictitious author. These treatises, embodying one of the most intriguing puzzles of medieval literature, are included here. The author concludes that these writings were a product of thirteenth-century Spain, not France, as claimed by Gershom Scholem. His conclusion engendered a critical evaluation of the premises of Scholem's historiography of early medieval Jewish mysticism.
