Titoli in Coscienza e pensiero

Среди изданных в эмиграции книг Н.А. Бердяева следует назвать Новое средневековье, О назначении человека, О рабстве и свободе человека, Русская идея, и, наконец, Самопознание, опубликованное посмертно. Самопознание — одно из последних произведений Бердяева, своеобразный итог его размышлений. Опыт философской автобиографии — так автор определил жанр своей книги, основными темами которой являются личность и время, личность и эпоха, личность и ее внутренняя свобода.

Many of us often feel challenged by the question of what gives our lives true meaning. What are we searching for? How do we know we are on the right path? In Playing Dead, Robert Sheehan shares intimate reflections on his own search for purpose, looking back at this journey so far and sharing the lessons he has learnt along the way. Meditation is at the heart of Robert's route to awakening and here he reveals how we can welcome practice into our daily lives to nurture a quiet mind and content heart.

Марк Твен умел несколькими словами выразить истинную суть любого явления, охарактеризовать человека или описать ситуацию так, что это становилось афоризмом. Всю жизнь он изучал человечество, бездны его пороков и вершины величия. В своих произведениях Марк Твен смеялся над ним – иронично, зло, с состраданием. Он как будто подносил зеркало и говорил: смотрите, люди, вы вот какие, исправьтесь. Никто вам не поможет: ни царь, ни бог, ни герой, ни демократия. Давайте сами. Предлагаем и вам, дорогие читатели, посмотреться в это зеркало. Приобщиться к искусству размышлять о времени и о себе.

What is truth and what is reality? Anything that thought thinks about or reflects upon or projects, that is reality. And that reality has nothing to do with truth. The art of seeing is to place reality where it is, and not move that in order to get truth. You can’t get truth. How am I to empty that consciousness and yet retain knowledge – otherwise I couldn’t function – and reach a state which will comprehend reality?

So memory, experience, knowledge is the background of thought. But thought which is always old can never be free, it may express itself freely but it is always old; and therefore thought can never see anything new. So when I understand that, very clearly, the mind becomes quiet.

The problems of life do not demand a method, because they are so vital and alive that if we approach with a method we totally misunderstand and don’t adequately meet that problem. Where there is efficiency there is ruthlessness. The means and the end are not separate. Reality or God is something that cannot come by a technique, a means, or through a long determined practice and discipline. Aloneness implies no means. You are not alone when you have a means.

Our education is concerned with the accumulation of knowledge. Very few of us are capable of living a life without the influence of specialists. What is the point of going to a university, getting a degree and disappearing into the vast structure of society? Q: How shall we approach the idea of study? If you express from something already accumulated it is a deadly bore, but if you are all the time watching, not only yourself but the world, you are learning.

Can a mind be free of authority so that there is no impingement of the past, so that the mind is always alert, learning in the present? Can the mind experience, go through a challenge so completely that it leaves no mark? The mind must purge itself of the social morality in order to be moral. Has experience any value at all? Attention is the highest form of the good. What is the relationship between two human beings when there are no images? What is wisdom?

There is no mind without idea, thought and verbalization. There is no experiencer and the experience; there is only a state of experiencing. One cannot think about immortality. If one can live in the state of only experiencing then there is a state in which ideation has stopped altogether. Is it possible to have direct experience of that which is not thinkable and which cannot be put into words?

Living together amicably, creatively, in complete relationship with one another – if that is what is essential then we need not only a different kind of mind but also a different quality of affection, love. What is the function of a religious mind? Our struggle in life is dualistic: good and bad, right and wrong, holy and unholy, the ideal and the fact. There is only the fact, not the ideal. Is it possible to look at life as though you are looking for the first time? What is the content of the unconscious?

Ser humano es un arte. No es una ciencia. Si fuera una ciencia, tendríamos definiciones aceptadas, teorías confirmadas, respuestas unívocas, protocolos y manuales para la vida. Pero no los tenemos. Ser humano es un arte. Un arte que cada individuo—con todos los deseos, incertidumbres, dudas, miedos y derrotas que son inherentes a nuestra existencia—tiene que dominar. Sólo así podremos alcanzar nuestra humanidad, la cual nos permitirá vivir en la verdad, crear belleza, ser justos, tener compasión.

En Cabaret místico se da estructura a los encuentros que, desde hace años, Alejandro Jodorowsky viene manteniendo con el público que acude a sus conferencias. Más de un centenar de chistes e historias iniciáticas le sirven de base para analizar al ser humano sin su «máscara», con sus problemas, miedos, inseguridades y carencias. El amplio número de ejemplos y comentarios, que el autor ofrece sobre las causas que impiden nuestra felicidad y nuestro desarrollo hacia una Consciencia plena, ayudará al lector a sanar la relación consigo mismo, con los demás, con la vida y con su entorno.

OM C. Parkin führt in den weiten Raum innerer Stille. "Es ist dieses Innerste, das Bewusstsein selbst, welches die Welt absorbiert, transzendiert – anstrengungslos. Es ist nichts einfacher, als loszulassen und einzukehren in dich selbst. Du kennst diesen Ort, er ist dir nicht fremd, er ist dein Zuhause. Es ist deine Seele, die dein Zuhause ist. Folge diesem Ruf, der leise ist, schweigsam, still."
