Iqbal Al Lawati
Acerca de esta escucha
Inspired by D. E. Wittkower’s The Philosopher’s Book of Questions and Answers, author Iqbal Al Lawati set out to examine his own views and responses to the questions posed therein. In doing so, he felt passionate about sharing his views with others, hoping to create a spark to get them also to think about their take on these matters.
Exploring topics ranging from faith and the soul to society and morals, Refracted Reflections: Faith, Morals, and Society endeavors to highlight some of the steps toward gaining and achieving a perfected coordination and synchronization of the outward aspects of conduct and the inner aspects of thought within the self, whether related to understanding the intricacies and characteristics of the cosmos, or dealing with matters related to soul, birth, life, death, and beyond. Al Lawati discusses the importance of happiness in life, linking true happiness to the acts of giving and charitable deeds.
Offering a broad perspective our world and environment, this study considers matters of soul, death, life, afterlife, morals, and social issues, providing deeper awareness of the self as we journey through life.

In this explosive new book, Sam Harris tears down the wall between scientific facts and human values, arguing that most people are simply mistaken about the relationship between morality and the rest of human knowledge. Harris urges us to think about morality in terms of human and animal well-being, viewing the experiences of conscious creatures as peaks and valleys on a "moral landscape".

The Dalai Lama, at his most compassionate and outspoken, here elaborates and deepens his vision for the nonreligious way. Transcending the mere "religion wars", he outlines a system of secular ethics that gives tolerant respect to religion, those that ground ethics in a belief in God and an afterlife, and those that understand good actions as leading to better states of existence in future lives. And yet, with the highest level of spiritual and intellectual authority, the Dalai Lama makes a claim for what he calls a third way.

Loving Life demonstrates that morality is not a matter of divine revelation nor social convention nor personal opinion but a matter of the factual requirements of human life and personal happiness. Biddle shows how a true morality is derived logically from observable facts, what in essence such a morality demands, and why it is a matter of pure self-interest.

Logical thinking is something everyone tries, but only some succeed. Do you think logically? You may be surprised by the answer. Perhaps you have come a long way; I am sure you have. But there is more to learn. There is more to explore and discover. So here is my suggestion, Einstein: I believe your brain has great potential, but only if you use it. My invitation is to use it by listening to this book. And I would be crazy if I wouldn’t reveal some of the specific topics you will be faced with.

By listening to this audiobook, one develops internal observations and approaches that did not previously exist within. This audiobook is intended for contemplation of spiritual terms. To the extent that we are integrated with these terms, we begin to unveil the spiritual structure that surrounds us, almost as if a mist had been lifted.

First published in 1930, Civilization and Its Discontents is one of the most influential works of pioneering psychologist Sigmund Freud. Focusing on the tension between the primitive drives of the individual and the demands of civilization for order and conformity, Freud draws upon his psychoanalytic theories to explain the fundamental structures, conflicts, and consequences of society.

For all the thousands of books that have been written about religion, few until this one have attempted to examine it scientifically: to ask why - and how - it has shaped so many lives so strongly. Is religion a product of blind evolutionary instinct or rational choice? Is it truly the best way to live a moral life? Ranging through biology, history, and psychology, Daniel C. Dennett charts religion’s evolution from “wild” folk belief to “domesticated” dogma.
