Qualitative Freedom - Autonomy in Cosmopolitan Responsibility
In the light of growing political and religious fundamentalism, this open access book defends the idea of freedom as paramount for the attempt to find common ethical ground in the age of globality. The book sets out to examine as yet unexhausted ways to boost the resilience of the principle of liberalism. Critically reviewing the last 200 years of the philosophy of freedom, it revises the principle of liberty in order to revive it. It discusses many different aspects that fall under its three main topics: the metaphysics of freedom, quantitative freedom and qualitative freedom.Open societies worldwide have come under increasing pressure in the last decades. The belief that politics and markets fare best when guided by the principle of liberty presently faces multiple challenges such as t...

Explorations in Consciousness: A New Approach to Out-of-Body Experiences
In Explorations in Consciousness, Frederick Aardema, a clinical researcher, provides a profound account of the out-of-body experience, covering some of the most mystifying aspects of this experience. Throughout the book, the author seamlessly weaves in his own travels into different fields of consciousness, including experiences in the personal field, where he is confronted with the constructs of his own psyche, as well as visitations to collective and archetypal fields of consciousness that appear to have an independent existence beyond the eye of the beholder. Highly original and groundbreaking, Explorations in Consciousness presents a model of reality in which nothing can ever be taken for granted. It proposes that consciousness is embedded within a wider field of possibilities that be...

Supermundane is the fourteenth book from the Agni Yoga Series which is composed of fourteen books. In them is found a synthesis of ancient Eastern beliefs and modern Western thought and a bridge between the spiritual and the scientific. Unlike previous yogas, Agni Yoga is a path not of physical disciplines, meditation, or asceticism—but of practice in daily life. It is the yoga of fiery energy, of consciousness, of responsible, directed thought. It teaches that the evolution of the planetary consciousness is a pressing necessity and that, through individual striving, it is an attainable aspiration for mankind. It affirms the existence of the Hierarchy of Light and the center of the Heart as the link with the Hierarchy and with the far-off worlds. Though not systematized in an ordinary se...

At times we feel that our lives must have a higher purpose and we long to connect to our individual truth. Should our life’s challenges become extremely difficult to bear, we might refer to it as the dark night of the soul.
Sophia, a young woman who feels trapped and disillusioned with her life, decides to embark on a journey through the dark night of the soul in her quest for freedom and greater meaning. ‘To be truly free, you have to face yourself’, the wise old man of the forest tells Sophia early on in her journey.
The Veils of Illusion is an allegory; a mystical journey in which Sophia undergoes many tests and trials, encountering unique and intriguing characters, each providing her with the often arduous task of learning greater wisdom. Yet Sophia’s ultimate goal...

Everything Flows: Towards a Processual Philosophy of Biology
This is an open access title available under the terms of a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 International licence. It is free to read at Oxford Scholarship Online and offered as a free PDF download from OUP and selected open access locations.Everything Flows explores the metaphysical thesis that the living world is not made up of substantial particles or things, as has often been supposed, but is rather constituted by processes. The biological domain is organised as an interdependent hierarchy of processes, which are stabilized and actively maintained at different timescales. Even entities that intuitively appear to be paradigms of things, such as organisms, are actually better understood as processes. Unlike previousattempts to articulate processual views of biology, which have tended to use Alfred North...

MY ROAD TRIP AMERICA is a journey that will take you through the heart and soul of the United States on a trip you will never forget.The Road Trip is an American tradition. It gives us the chance to begin anew, to start again. This can be for the better or worse, we never really know the result of our actions before they take place. This is the coin we flip, the philosophy of the road trip. We walk to the edge of the cliff, we take it to the limit, go beyond the horizon. All road trips have two sides. One is the external, the experiences waiting for you on the road. The beauty, the danger, the possibilities. The second is internal, what is happening inside of you. Your memories, your hopes, your dreams, your fears, your relationships, your expectations - past, present and future. Ia...

Sons of the Gods, Children of Earth: Ideology and Literary Form in Ancient Greece
In this ambitious and venturesome book, Peter W. Rose applies the insights of Marxist theory to a number of central Greek literary and philosophical texts. He explores major points in the trajectory from Homer to Plato where the ideology of inherited excellence—beliefs about descent from gods or heroes—is elaborated and challenged. Rose offers subtle and penetrating new readings of Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, Pindar's Tenth Pythian Ode, Aeschylus's Oresteia, Sophokles' Philoktetes, and Plato's Republic.Rose rejects the view of art as a mere reflection of social and political reality—a view that is characteristic not only of most Marxist but of most historically oriented treatments of classical literature. He applies instead a Marxian hermeneutic derived from the work of the Frankfurt ...
