Aclamado como una parábola para los tiempos modernos, Erasmo de Rotterdam es la biografía de un gran humanista que, cuando se le pidió una confesión de fe, dijo: “Amo la libertad, y no serviré ni puedo servir a ningún partido”. En ningún momento Zweig menciona a Hitler por su nombre, pero es obvio que esta biografía de un hombre que trató de mantenerse por encima de la batalla.

Das Ich und das Es: Wie funktioniert die Psyche? Laut Freud wird das Seelenleben durch drei Instanzen bestimmt: Das Es, das Ich, das Über-Ich. Dieses genetische Strukturmodell der Psyche entwickelte Freud 1923 - es ist bis heute von großer Bedeutung für die psychoanalytische Theoriebildung.

From Silicon Valley boardrooms to rural communes to academic philosophy departments, a seemingly inconceivable idea is being seriously discussed: that the end of humanity’s reign on earth is imminent, and that we should welcome it. Anthropocene antihumanism has been inspired by revulsion at...

Dr. Hawkins begins this lecture by saying that our spirit will be where it must be as a consequence of that which it is. Everything is exactly precisely where it has brought itself through its own decision. He states: "There is nobody paddling the canoe except yourself!" However, with the progression of consciousness, the "I" is less and less limited and ultimately becomes the source of Knowingness itself.

Das Glück sucht jeder Mensch. Doch was ist das Glück? Höchstes Gut, ein Zustand der Seligkeit oder sinnvolle Tätigkeit? Diese Hörbuch Box voller philosophischer Gedanken gibt überraschende Antworten!

Gerade die unscheinbaren Nebenaspekte des Alltags können die wichtigsten Lebensfragen beinhalten. Wilhelm Schmid beschreibt in seinem Hörbuch "Die Kunst der Balance" 100 Facetten der Lebenskunst. Auf heitere Art beleuchtet er die kulturelle Bedeutung des Wurstsalats, spricht über die Kunst des Pfeifens und bringt dem Leser das kleine Glück einer lästigen Erkältung näher.

Dieses Buch ist kein Ratgeber wie jeder andere! Philosoph Wilhelm Schmid geht der Frage nach, was Glück eigentlich bedeutet und wie man glücklich wird - und gelangt dabei zu teils verblüffenden Einsichten. Ist Glück vielleicht eine reine Frage der Einstellung? Und ist es sogar möglich, dass wir viel zu viel Wert auf das Glück legen? Schmids ungewöhnliche Überlegungen regen zum Nachdenken an und machen dieses Buch zu einer idealen Lektüre nicht nur für Philosophiefreunde.

Dialogul Despre mânie aşează o oglindă în faţa omului mâniat şi-i arată chipul strâmb şi negru. Un chip care nu mai este al unui om. Ca să nu te pierzi în acest război cu tine însuţi, învaţă să nu-l începi. Este în puterea ta, pentru că "mânia nu îndrăzneşte nimic singură, ci doar cu acordul sufletului".

Die psychoanalytische Theorie nimmt an, dass der Ablauf der seelischen Vorgänge automatisch durch das Lustprinzip reguliert wird, das heißt, dass wir in unserer ganzen Existenz durch Vermeidung von Unlust oder Erzeugung von Lust getrieben sind. Aber es gibt darüber hinaus noch stärkere, unbekanntere "Triebe". Und Sigmund Freud geht auf die Suche nach jenen fundamentalen und kreatürlichen Dingen in der Seele, die ihm in der Arbeit als Therapeut begegnet sind, Wie zum Beispiel der Wiederholungszwang. Mit Hilfe von Hypothesen und in einer professoralen Sprache schlägt er sich Bahn.

The gentle movements and relaxation practices in this audiobook are recommended by Gillian as a daily routine for maintaining a healthy spine, for alleviating back problems and for helping to prevent osteoporosis. Track one introduces energising breathing techniques and includes a sequence of gentle movements using the breath to both relax and strengthen your back. Track two is a deep relaxation practice known as yoga nidra in which you lie on your back and rotate your awareness passively through your body, allowing it to relax.

The two half-hour practices in this audiobook take you into deeply healing states of relaxation. The first practice releases stress and revitalises your whole body by guiding you through four different patterns of yogic breathing. In the second practice, known as yoga nidra or psychic sleep, you gently rotate your awareness through your body, letting go of tension. In both practices your self-healing and relaxation response is deepened with the use of sound vibration and light visualisations.

In the first of the two yoga sessions in this audiobook, Gillian guides you through gentle stretches and simple yoga postures with special emphasis on your breathing. The exercises are interspersed with meditative pauses and accompanied by soothing classical music. The second yoga session introduces you to a deep breathing technique and then takes you into a state of deep relaxation where, with the help of sounds from nature, you are guided into the experience of being different animals.
