Modern Knowledge

It’s time for a childbirth revolution. Childbirth has always been, and always will be, a significant rite of passage that transforms a woman into a mother. However, the modern approach to maternity care fails women, families, and care providers with outdated practices that center the needs of institutions rather than individuals. In this audiobook, Rachel Reed demonstrates how childbirth can be reclaimed to center women and support birth physiology.

A paradigm-shifting work that revolutionizes our understanding of the origins and structure of science.

Its central themes are the structure of sensibility and the activity of understanding. Space and time are not external things but forms through which ...

Everyone's a cynic, yet few will admit it. Today's cynics excuse themselves half-heartedly - "I hate to be a cynic, but...." - before making their pronouncements. Narrowly opportunistic, always on the take, contemporary cynicism has nothing positive to contribute. The Cynicism of the ancient Greeks, however, was very different. Bold and shameless, it was committed to transforming the values on which civilization depends.

Detailed connections between emptiness, modern relativity, and the nature of time are also explored.

Within these pages, the reader encounters: The collapse of false authority The anatomy of control systems disguised as civilization The lost science of inner sovereignty The architects who built reality before it was named Drawing from Gnostic texts, pre-flood ...
