Sunrise to Sunset (And Back Again) by Devon Williams Pdf

"Sunrise to Sunset (And Back Again)" is a poignant collection of poetry crafted during the formative years of adolescence. Through lyrical prose, the author, traversing the tumultuous journey from sophomore to senior year of high school, delves into the intricate intersections of love, mental health, and queer identity. Within these pages, readers embark on an emotive expedition, exploring the depths of passion, the complexities of self-discovery, and the nuances of mental well-being through an extended metaphor of the sun's journey each day. Beginning with 'Sunrise', life's normalcy shifts into the deeper questions and complexities of 'Sunset', with 'Midnight' characterizing the author's lowest low before hope and growth are restored with 'Dawn Again'. Through this four-part tribute to coming of age, the author invites readers to witness the kaleidoscope of emotions that shape their evolving sense of self. Themes of acceptance, defiance, and empowerment thread through the tapestry of their verse, offering solace and solidarity to those grappling with similar struggles. "Sunrise to Sunset (And Everything in Between)" is not merely a collection of poems but a testament to the transformative power of self-expression and the resilience of the human spirit. It stands as a beacon of hope for anyone navigating the turbulent waters of adolescence, love, and identity.

Hegel's Ladder by H. S. Harris Pdf

A two-volume set. Print edition available in cloth only. Awarded the Nicholas Hoare/Renaud-Bray Canadian Philosophical Association Book Prize, 2001 From the Preface: Hegel's Ladder aspires to be . . . a ‘literal commentary’ on Die Phänomenologie des Geistes. . . . It was the conscious goal of my thirty-year struggle with Hegel to write an explanatory commentary on this book; and with its completion I regard my own ‘working’ career as concluded. . . . The prevailing habit of commentators . . . is founded on the general consensus of opinion that whatever else it may be, Hegel’s Phenomenology is not the logical ‘Science’ that he believed it was. This is the received view that I want to overthrow. But if I am right, then an acceptably continuous chain of argument, paragraph by paragraph, ought to be discoverable in the text.

Shamanism [2 volumes] by Mariko Namba Walter,Eva Jane Neumann Fridman Pdf

A guide to worldwide shamanism and shamanistic practices, emphasizing historical and current cultural adaptations. This two-volume reference is the first international survey of shamanistic beliefs from prehistory to the present day. In nearly 200 detailed, readable entries, leading ethnographers, psychologists, archaeologists, historians, and scholars of religion and folk literature explain the general principles of shamanism as well as the details of widely varied practices. What is it like to be a shaman? Entries describe, region by region, the traits, such as sicknesses and dreams, that mark a person as a shaman, as well as the training undertaken by initiates. They detail the costumes, music, rituals, artifacts, and drugs that shamans use to achieve altered states of consciousness, communicate with spirits, travel in the spirit world, and retrieve souls. Unlike most Western books on shamanism, which focus narrowly on the individual's experience of healing and trance, Shamanism also examines the function of shamanism in society from social, political, and historical perspectives and identifies the ancient, continuous thread that connects shamanistic beliefs and rituals across cultures and millennia.

Measure Solar System Objects and Their Movements for Yourself! by John D. Clark Pdf

Instead of taking somebody's word for it about the basic size and distance statistics for the solar system, this book shows amateur astronomers how to measure these things for themselves. This is an enriching experience for any amateur astronomer - to understand and personally measure some fundamental astronomical quantities and distances. A basic knowledge of geometry is required, but it is amazing how simple the geometry can be. Readers are led through the geometry as gently as possible - and in a light-hearted way - presuming that most non-academics will have half-forgotten most of their mathematics. The practical astronomical equipment recommended is no more than a typical commercially-made amateur telescope and a camera of some sort - these days a webcam works very well. Apart from that all the reader will need is access to a computer, the know-how to download free software, and an enthusiasm to expand his knowledge of the basis of scientific astronomy.

A Poet in the Bardo by Shyamal Bhattacharjee Pdf

Shyamal Bhattacharjee's second English novel A Poet in the Bardo tells the story of a man who is dying in an accident. In those moments of death the man sees his whole life in some flashes wherein human concepts of space and time have no bearing. Even all the events that could have happened but did not happen in life become some miraculous visual experiences and lead him to overcome various bonds and obstacles towards a peaceful death. As the movement of a newly deceased soul towards a desired rebirth or void is described within the pattern of Tibetan Bardo Thodol or Book of the Dead, this novel also describes an equivalent experience. The amazing epicness of the language of that description belongs to Shyamal Bhattacharjee's own poetic style.

The Egypt Code by Robert Bauval Pdf

Why did the ancients align their monuments so precisely with the stars? What were the practical and symbolic reasons behind these mysterious configurations? From the author of The Orion Mystery, the best-selling book that introduced the revolutionary star-correlation theory about the Giza pyramids, The Egypt Code reveals an amazing Grand Unified Plan behind the legendary temples of upper Egypt. Robert Bauval, one of the world’s most prominent and controversial Egyptologists, completes his groundbreaking investigation of astronomy as related to Egyptian monuments and related religious texts. The Egypt Code revisits the Pyramid Age and the Old Kingdom, proposing a vast sky-ground correlation for the Memphite-Heliopolis region, and presenting the possibility of a grand plan spanning three thousand years of Pharaonic civilization and involving pyramids and major temple sites along the Nile. The central idea of the book is that the cosmic order, which the ancients referred to as "Maat," was comprised of the observable cycles of the sun and stars, in particular the star Sirius, and that the changes that took place due to the precession of the equinoxes and the so-called Sothic Cycle are reflected in the orientation and location of religious sites.
