Tap in. We are in the book of Revelations. This audiobook is for those who are asleep and awoke. This book is an accumulation of thoughts that I've been writing in my journal since 2016. As someone who use to suffer from night terrors, this book will help prepare you for peaceful sleep. This book is broken down into two sections. The Dream side is guided meditation that is best experienced with headphones before bed.

Introduction: Dialogues at the Crossroads of Belief In an increasingly diverse world, where opinions span a vast spectrum and beliefs intermingle more than ever, dialogues about faith and atheism are commonplace. The discourse between believers and non-believers has existed for centuries, but today, the conversations are more nuanced, enriched by science, philosophy, and cultural shifts. "How to Win an Argument With an Atheist" is not a guide to 'defeating' someone in debate, but rather a tool to foster understanding, provide sound reasoning, and bridge the gap between two seemingly opposed...

Theism or Atheism, published in 1921, examines not only arguments for and against the existence of God, but also the practical usefulness of such a concept. The author writes, “Atheism would mean in practice an enormous concentration of energy upon purely human affairs, and a judgment of conduct in terms of human happiness and prosperity.”

What happens when we die? Life begins with an orgasm, can this be topped at the end? The greatest moment of the author's life was watching his mother-in-law die. At this moment, observing her in a state of ecstasy, he came to understand death maybe is not the end. This began his years of work as a hospice volunteer and a student of the sometimes supernatural dying process.

Have you ever pondered how you came into existence, why you are here, the purpose of your life, and what awaits you after you depart from this world? These profound questions are a natural part of your existence, woven into the very fabric of your being by your creator, urging you to seek God and the meaning and purpose of your existence. The pursuit of meaning and purpose serves as a powerful driving force in your life.

Trying to give religion definition is an almost impossible quest. The concept of faith is a contradiction; it can mean many different things to many different people. All religions preach peace and love and yet perhaps more people have died in its name than any other reason. Such is the conflict of trying to apply limited human laws and rules to divinity. What you are about to discover in this book will dramatically change the way you think and feel about everything in your life.

This is the Search for Meaning and Purpose, a journey into the uncharted territories of the human spirit, where every step holds the potential to rewrite the script of existence. So fasten your seatbelts, adjust your existential compass, and prepare to be transported…to the Celestial Zone.

This book may allow some people to overcome their fear of the vengeful, cruel God they were taught to believe in as children. It may allow more people to speak out when they hear religious leaders use their God to incite people to harm others. It may even allow more of us to admit, "I could be wrong."

The God Concept investigates concepts of the divine, tracing the origins of religious belief, its development through cultural evolution from polytheism to the rise of monotheism, and the emergence of Judaism, from which Christianity and Islam developed. As ancient civilizations developed in the Middle East, Mesopotamia and Egypt emerged as centres of polytheism. The Mesopotamian roots of the Abrahamic religions are demonstrated by comparison of the Babylonian creation epic with the Genesis account of creation. Additionally, many of the laws in the Babylonian Code of Hammurabi are compared ...

Creer o no creer en Dios. Esa parece ser la dialéctica histórica en cuanto al fenómeno espiritual y religioso en el ser humano. Sin embargo, olvidamos que existe otra posición intermedia entre ambos polos: el agnosticismo. Este pequeño ensayo hace un repaso a algunos de los «agnósticos» más famosos de la historia, e intenta explicar esa posición vital que ni cree ni descree en lo sobrenatural, sino que se mantiene prudente y expectante a pruebas empíricas que avalen una posición u otra. CAPÍTULOS: Introducción. Definición de agnosticismo. Breve historia de los fundamentos del...

One of the greatest thinkers on the origins of Christianity and a renowned expert on Gnostic and Hermetic literature presents, in this snug volume first published in 1907, the lost teachings of Jesus. Not found in the canonical Gospels and, indeed, frequently dismissed as blasphemous or heretical or "reworked" by later editors to comply with perceived tradition, this beautiful hymn is not just of interest to Christian mystics but to anyone who values wise words well spoken. For those interested in mysticism, Gnosticism, and esoteric traditions.

A text structured in the form of dialogues with some of the most brilliant minds in human history: Baruch Spinoza, Saint Augustine of Hippo, Albert Einstein, Kurt Gödel, and Saint Thomas Aquinas. Within these pages are addressed some of the questions that have challenged human reason since the dawn of time: How can the existence of God be proven? How and why did the Universe come into being? What is life? Why does evil exist in the world? What is the meaning of life? What is the ultimate purpose of human existence?With meticulous and profound insight, this work interweaves the rigour of ...

Decem Mandata: ¿Y si los pecados que nos condenan no son los que nos contaron? En el principio no hubo palabra, sino miedo. Y de ese miedo, nació la Ley. Tallada en piedra, en sangre, en fuego, los Diez Mandamientos se erigieron no como una guía de virtud, sino como una advertencia sombría de nuestra propia fragilidad. Pero, ¿qué sucede cuando lo sagrado se convierte en el yugo del poder? ¿Cuando la fe ciega desata la violencia, y la obediencia es más letal que el pecado? "Decem Mandata" no es un evangelio. Es una profecía invertida. Toni Mederos te invita a un viaje perturbador a ...

This work is the first letter to my friend Aloysius regarding the “Virtue of the Gods.” It has been made available to you the reader in what shall be multiple formats. In the letter, I discuss the first virtue required to be one with the gods, which is: “a god walks through fire.” This encompasses many ideas, including that a god fears not pain nor suffering, a god has confidence, self-belief, has concern for the present and future of humanity, a god has agency and intent. A god does not succumb to threats of hellfire. A god knows that faith is not a virtue – faith is lazy. ...

These miniatures are one person’s observations of daily life. They serve as invitations to stop, look, and listen to the world before us. In doing so, readers will find opportunities for spiritual reflection and meditation.

It’s easy to see how science has advanced over the years, discovering truths and laws that unite people from all over the world. Yet religion remains simplistic and divisive. Religion is supposed to be the branch of knowledge that explains God and life's purpose. It’s supposed to be as insightful as biology, geology, or physics. Yet religious affiliation is declining because the old and new age religions fail to offer valuable insights. The Puzzle of Religion isn't another compilation of spiritual anecdotes and clichés, nor is it another history lesson on religion. Instead, Douglas ...

No, it’s not that God is tired or wants to give up trying to save all the ungrateful and disobedient masses in the world. It’s just that God’s intention, from the beginning, was to occupy a much more intimate place in our personal lives than that of a “god” that we worship and fear. What God always wanted to be will blow your mind and fill your life with new excitement. And, what about Jesus? He is an important part of this story.
