Synopsis Practicing Transcendence by : Christopher Peet
This book introduces readers to the concept of the Axial Age and its relevance for a world in crisis. Scholars have become increasingly interested in philosopher Karl Jaspers’ thesis that a spiritual revolution in consciousness during the first millennium BCE decisively shaped world history. Axial ideas of transcendence develop into ideologies for world religions and civilizations, in turn coalescing into a Eurasian world-system that spreads globally to become the foundation of our contemporary world. Alongside ideas and ideologies, the Axial Age also taught spiritual practices critically resisting the new scale of civilizational power: in small counter-cultural communities on the margins of society, they turn our conscious focus inward to transform ourselves and overcome the destructive potentials within human nature. Axial spiritualities offer humanity a practical wisdom, a profound psychology, and deep hope: to transform despair into resilience, helping us face with courage the ecological and political challenges confronting us today.

Synopsis The Power of Transcendence by : Mason Bennett
The Power of Transcendence: Transcendental Meditation Practices Transcendental Meditation (TM) is a simple, natural meditation practice focused on achieving a deep state of relaxation and heightened awareness. This book delves into the origins and foundations of TM, a technique that was introduced to the Western world by Maharishi Mahesh Yogi in the 1950s, but which has millennia-old roots in the Vedic traditions of India. Designed to be accessible to everyone, regardless of their culture or religion, TM has been widely adopted around the world for its multiple applications, from promoting general well-being to reducing stress. The book explores in detail how the regular practice of TM can positively impact physical and mental health, supported by a wide range of scientific research. Among the documented benefits are a significant reduction in stress, improved cardiovascular health, a strengthened immune system, relief from anxiety and depression, and an overall increase in creativity and productivity. The book also addresses the subjective experience of the practice, highlighting how the repetition of a personally chosen mantra can lead the mind into states of “alert rest”, where the body relaxes deeply while the mind remains awake. In addition to the practical and scientific aspects, the book encourages a broader understanding of TM as a tool for personal and spiritual development. With accessible language and practical examples, this guide is ideal both for those just starting out on their TM journey and for practitioners who wish to deepen their experience. The book is an invitation to explore the transformative power of Transcendental Meditation, providing a more balanced, healthy life in harmony with the universe.

Synopsis The Gift of Adversity by : Norman E Rosenthal MD
Now in paperback—this acclaimed book from Norman Rosenthal, the New York Times–bestselling author and research psychiatrist, shows how life’s disappointments and difficulties provide us with the lessons we need to become happier and more resilient human beings. Winner of the 2014 Nautilus Award represents “Better Books for a Better World”—the Silver Award in the category of Heroic Journeys. Adversity is an irreducible fact of life. Although we can and should learn from all experiences, both positive and negative, bestselling author Dr. Norman E. Rosenthal, believes that adversity is by far the best teacher most of us will ever encounter. Whether the adversity one experiences is the result of poor decision-making, a desire to test one’s mettle, or plain bad luck, Rosenthal believes life’s most important lessons—from the value of family to the importance of occasionally cutting corners—can be best learned from it. Running counter to society’s current prevailing message that “excellence” must always be aspired to, and failure or mistakes of any sort are to be avoided at all costs, Rosenthal shows that engaging with our own failures and defeats is one of the only ways we are able to live authentic and meaningful lives, and that each different type of adversity carries its own challenges and has the potential to yield its own form of wisdom. Using stories from his own life—including his childhood in apartheid-era South Africa, his years after suffering a violent attack from a stranger, and his career as a psychiatrist—as well as case studies and discussions with well-known figures like Viktor Frankl and David Lynch, Rosenthal shows that true innovation, emotional resilience, wisdom, and dignity can only come from confronting and understanding the adversity we have experienced. Even when life is hardest, there are meanings to be found, riches to be harvested, and gifts that can last a lifetime. Rosenthal illustrates his message through a series of compact, memorable chapters, each one drawn from episodes in the lives of his patients, colleagues, or himself, and concluded with a take-away maxim on the lesson learned.

Synopsis Transcendence, Immanence, and Intercultural Philosophy by : Nahum Brown
This book presents detailed discussions from leading intercultural philosophers, arguing for and against the priority of immanence in Chinese thought and the validity of Western interpretations that attempt to import conceptions of transcendence. The authors pay close attention to contemporary debates generated from critical analysis of transcendence and immanence, including discussions of apophasis, critical theory, post-secular conceptions of society, phenomenological approaches to transcendence, possible-world models, and questions of practice and application. This book aims to explore alternative conceptions of transcendence that either call the tradition in the West into question, or discover from within Western metaphysics a thoroughly dialectical way of thinking about immanence and transcendence.

For a time, The compassionate One had wandered from one village to the next. His purpose or intent was veiled from those who often viewed him as nothing more than a simple beggar.

And on this day, and at this particular moment, those in this village knew a man deeply enfolded in samadhi had appeared. But with time and exposure, this man of considerable insight provoked the village elders' conscience. His words bit into their souls. His example put theirs to shame.

But with time and further experience, they would reunite once again when the time was most appropriate and the girl was finally prepared to listen.

'Hearts in Transcendence' offers an insightful exploration of transcendental consciousness states that challenge the boundaries of human potential. These exceptional states of consciousness have been captured throughout literature, but seldom is the real, tangible, and practical significance of exceptional experiences discussed in the modern world. This book sets out to do just that - to uncover the greater potential of the human being through a practical, applied approach to consciousness states and cosmic experiences of transcendence.
