A obra de Clarice Lispector tem sido lida, interpretada e criticada ao longo dos anos sob diversos prismas. Entretanto, com sua imagem forte e com suas questões existenciais latentes, a autora dificilmente é lida a partir da ótica da religião. O presente livro apresenta uma leitura da religião em Clarice Lispector não a partir de uma ótica institucionalizada, mas a partir da problemática existencial perene no problema religioso e entrelaçada com a cultura e com as expressões culturais.

Friends, the next voice you hear might be God's! Wouldn't it be wonderful if this were true? Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could hear the Voice of God? And perhaps we can. Perhaps we all have heard the Voice of God but haven't recognized it.

Registrazione della conferenza tenuta a Firenze nel 2009 da Marco Ferrini, direttore del Centro Studi Bhaktivedanta, nella quale l'esperto di cultura vedica crea un affascinante parallelo tra la prima grande opera della letteratura italiana e il poema sacro più importante dell'epica induista. Divina Commedia e Bhagavad-Gita, universali monumenti del pensiero occidentale e orientale, dialogano tra loro, svelando inattese analogie tra le due culture, solo apparentemente distanti.

A Flaming Arrow in God's Bow is a mixture of narrative or prose poetry, autobiography, and thoughts on God. Jesus Christ plays a major role in this book, as is fitting since he's really stepped up to playing a major role in my day to day life. I wrote this book with boldness, trying to show one person's unique view on sin, forgiveness, hope, repentance, and reawakening of the spirit. I wanted the book to be unique, and I believe I accomplished that goal. Buy this book, and judge for yourself.

Elizabethan Demonology: An Essay in Illustration of the Belief in the Existence of Devils, and the Powers Possessed By Them, as It Was Generally Held during the Period of the Reformation, and the Times Immediately Succeeding; with Special Reference to Shakespeare and His Works This Essay is an expansion, in accordance with a preconceived scheme, of two papers, one on The Witches in Macbeth, and the other on The Demonology of Shakespeare, which were read before the New Shakespeare Society in the years 1877 and 1878.

Christmas should be a time of peace, togetherness, and celebration; yet it can leave all too many of us feeling overwhelmed by loneliness, stress and worry. In This Light is a timely collection of thoughtful meditations. The Most Revd Justin Welby, Archbishop of Canterbury, leads contributions from celebrities, business leaders, athletes, politicians and others, whose names you might not know but whose stories you will come to love.

Plus l'Humanité se raffine et se complique, plus les chances de désordre se multiplient et leur gravité s'accentue ; car on n'élève pas de montagne sans creuser des abîmes, et toute énergie est également puissance pour le bien et pour le mal. Tout ce qui devient souffre et pèche. La vérité sur notre attitude en ce monde, c'est que nous y sommes en croix.

Much has been written about the concept of Trinity or three parts over the centuries. From simply meaning God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit to what we hear in many churches is disturbing. Debates about predestination and subordination seem to never end. Due to the great number of denominations, the definition of a Christian has suffered, watered down in a corrupt world. From the simplicity of the Bible has come a rash of new doctrines that boggles the mind. What used to be straightforward in the 1st century is now twisted and turned into many ways of thinking about the Bible.

"This is a free book. Free from ancestral prejudices. Free from the chains of heteropatriarchy. Free from the racket of the male god—yes, in lowercase—that has caused so much harm to all of us. And I say to all of us because those who do not notice it either cannot—or will not—open their eyes and face reality: From religions—and within them—the intrinsic value of women has been scorned. By action and/or omission, they have been relegated to the role of servants rather than servants of God. They have been blamed for provoking their male brothers into the sin of lust by the way ...

El silencio es la base fundamental sobre la cual se establece el sentido de todo aquello que no es silencio. La música, por ejemplo, no existiría sin el silencio; el lenguaje en sí mismo no sería posible sin él y por ende el pensamiento. No es este el silencio al que se refiere el Dr. Núñez en la colección de reflexiones, que constituyen la presente obra y que nos ofrece para nuestra reflexión. El silencio es peligroso, no es una obra más del Dr. Núñez, sino aquella que nos ayuda a entender el para qué y el porqué del conjunto de su obra, es muy intimista en este sentido. El ...

"Have you ever seen an artisanal fisherman plunge his hands into a river’s waters and catch a fish bare-handed? My friend, Dr. Miguel Ángel Núñez, does just that with this difficult topic he has chosen to 'fish.' He immerses himself in the complex implications of the matter of honoring relentlessly toxic parents. Like a fish in open waters, the subject is slippery—it is easier to see it pass by than to even touch it. The author did not just dare—he ventured into the depths of the subject and captured it. The reader will not have to dive into a library; Dr. Núñez, backed by a ...

With all of the issues we face in our society today, there has been a tendency to assign blame as a starting point for solving these issues. While many of us point our fingers outward, finding fault with situations, systems and people outside of ourselves, Lawrence Cherry holds up the mirror of the Word and challenges us to look within. The problem it seems is with us: our misconceptions, misunderstandings and myths about ourselves and the world which we’ve imbibed and that keep us from seeing the Truth which can save us. A Call to Repent 2: Freedom in Christ invites us to a deeper look ...

Making Friends is a collection of essays discussing the qualities, names, forms and attributes belonging to the entity commonly addressed as "God". “Krishna’s age, His beauty, His bugle, His flute, His conchshell and His pleasing attitude all provoke love in friendship for Him. His exceptional joking abilities, exhibited sometimes by His pretending to be a royal prince, or even the Supreme Personality of Godhead, also give impetus to devotees developing love for Krishna in friendship.” (The Nectar of Devotion, Ch 42)

The word pass is very close to the word weigh, to the act of putting something on the scales. One does not spend time well without knowing its weight, the meaning that each one is capable of adding to it. Not making good use of it is a cause of regret. Time is the element common to both the builders of life and to those who watch it pass by undisturbed. It is the most precious intangible value that enriches rich and poor alike. As the hours go by, it is the product of those who make time have weight, not weight. It has weight to know how to differ, because like life itself, the truth, ...

"Love is the deepest and truest aspect of life; only through it can any enigma in the world be solved." (Albert Möser) If you have ever asked yourself, “What does it mean to love?” you are holding the book that will help you find some answers. The author—a distinguished university professor and prolific writer—has pondered the same question and confesses: “I have written these pages with the hope that love may exist among us. I have written them because I believe in love. I am one of those who still firmly believe that utopias can become reality.” "Today, as we witness a true ...

I’m on it. Here’s the English translation of the text you provided, adhering to all of the specific criteria you outlined: **Mornings are my favorite time of day. I wake up in the mornings full of energy, with enthusiasm and joy. I go to bed at night like my grandson goes to sleep, grumbling, because he has so much to do that he assumes the night is over. Life is beautiful. Reflecting is part of that gift we have received. It is my best moment. Without a telephone, or interruptions of any kind. A moment of reflection, every day I wait for it. In my mornings, while my family rests, I ...

Billions of people across the world and across time have followed the words of this ancient book. Countless numbers have died defending it. Even today, in the 21st century heated debates are fought every day over the truth which lies within. Great thinkers and intellectuals have seen something of pure wisdom and truth in it and others simply see it as an historical document, written by people from a different time and place.
