Book Description
We all wish to know whence we have come and whither we are going. In these conversations of a solitary man with the mountains, the stars, the animals, the plants--in a word, with his brothers and sisters on this earth--we learn about the meaning of death. The mighty book of Nature begins to speak and to answer our anxious questions in great images and analogies. In the spirit of the great German mystics, the author Hans Kury seeks answers to such questions as: - Why do people believe in the immortality of the human soul? - Is there a key to understanding the soul's fate after death? - To what extent is the body a reflection of the soul? - Are the animals and other creatures of the natural world messengers of the hereafter?

Gateways to God
Author: Robert Hater

ISBN: 1612781888
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
Grace for Daily Living Theologian Fr. Robert Hater explores the manifold ways sacraments work as gateways that lead us to encounters with God. All creation is sacramental because it is the gateway that reveals God's presence in the universe. Jesus described Himself as the gate to salvation and eternal life. His Church is the gateway to the kingdom of God, and the sacraments are the seven gateways to life-giving grace. Gateways to God explores the nature and meaning of sacraments. Using Scripture, history, and pastoral practice, Fr. Hater shows you how to approach the seven sacraments of the Church as gateways to divine life, how to receive them with expectant faith, and how to let them strengthen you for daily Christian living.

Book Description
The papers in this volume were delivered and responded to at the Third Conference of the International Society for the Study of Time. The meeting took place during sunny days, punctuated by an occasional brief storm, in the confer ence facilities of the Österreichisches College in Alpbach, Austria, from ]uly 1 to ]uly 10, 1976. In the middle of it came ]uly 4, the 200th anniversary of the Declaration ofindependence, and in honor ofparticipants from the United States there was a special session of papers on the subject of Freedom and Time. [See Fraser, Park in this volume. ] The effect of the papers was kaleidoscopic; reading the table of contents one can surmise the experience of those enthusiasts, and there were several, who heard them all. I think that most people who have been puzzled about time will agree that it is not clear wh at the puzzle is or from what direction the insights will come that will enable us to understand the situation a litde more clearly. As one of the participants wrote afterwards, "After all , we do not know apriori whether there exists areal unity in studies about time, but if one exists it must reveal itself progressively in the course of successive experiences such as these lectures. If it were easy to find, it would have been found already without the Society's help.

The Selected Writings of Jan Patocka
Author: Jan Patocka
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 1350139122
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 393
Book Description
Jan Patocka's contribution to phenomenology and the philosophy of history mean that he is considered one of the most important philosophers of the 20th century. Yet, his writing is not widely available in English and the Anglophone world remains rather unfamiliar with his work. In this new book of essential Patocka texts, of which the majority have been translated from the original Czech for the first time, readers will experience a general introduction to the key tenets of his philosophy. This includes his thoughts on the relationship between philosophy and political engagement which strike at the heart of contemporary debates about freedom, political participation and responsibility and a truly pressing issue for modern Europe, what exactly constitutes a European identity? In this important collection, Patocka provides an original vision of the relationship between self, world, and history that will benefit students, philosophers and those who are interested in the ideals that underpin our democracies.
