For the millions who want to find peace, love, and purpose without religion, Cambridge-educated scientist, wisdom teacher, and leadership expert Nick Jankel sets out a radical new life philosophy that reunites cutting-edge science with timeless wisdom about human consciousness to help us make better life choices, understand our place in the universe, and transform our life, love, and leadership challenges so we thrive.
"Eye-opening... a nuanced way to expand the views of even a hardened atheist." Kirkus Reviews
"A taboo-smashing book." Bookbag
Spiritual Atheist is a ground-breaking 'philosophical memoir' that draws on the author's knowledge of cutting-edge neuroscience, physics, and psychology; his insights into wisdom traditions like Taoism, Kabbalah, Advaita Vedanta, Buddhism, Zen, and Sufism; and twenty years experience leading hundreds of major organizations, and tens of thousands of individuals, to transform themselves.
Unable to find lasting happiness with religion, reason, pills, therapy, partying, wealth, success, or entrepreneurship, the author discovered the life-changing and heart-expanding benefits of 'spiritual' enlightenment. But not satisfied with New Age ideology, he spent years meticulously joining the dots between science and spirituality to form a rigorous philosophy for the 25% of the population who call themselves 'spiritual but not religious' who want to flourish in their inner lives, relationships, and careers.
If you trust science, and relish reason, but also sense that your life has purpose, your consciousness is real and that love is a force for good - all phenomena that conventional atheism denies - then spiritual atheism will help you have it all without dogma or superstition of any kind. Not limited to revolutionizing your own happiness and wellbeing, spiritual atheism can ensure that, together, we recalibrate capitalism, reinvent politics, and make AI, business, and technology work for all.
This book is ideal for those looking for answers to the biggest questions in life; as well as and fans of books like The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, Waking Up by Sam Harris, and The Science Delusion by Rupert Sheldrake. It includes a summary of the key principles of Spiritual Atheism and an accessible glossary of essential philosophical, scientific, and spiritual terms to support awakening. The book offers a condensed summary of what makes our modern world tick... and what is causing it to fall apart, exploring the history and philosophy behind:
Religion and Atheism
Psychology and Psychotherapy
Travel and Anthropology
Science and Materialism
Music, Dance, and Ecstasy
Philosophy and Postmodernism
Capitalism and Consumerism
Technology and Entrepreneurship
Wisdom and Enlightenment
Healing and Transformation
Purpose & Leadership
The biology-based philosophy of spiritual atheism draw on the work of cutting-edge scientists like Rex Jung, Robin Carhart-Harris, Stuart Kauffman, Stuart Hameroff, Dan Siegel, David Bohm, Bessel van der Kolk, and Christoph Koch; the greats of modern psychology like William James, Carl Jung, Viktor Frankl and Frederick W. H. Myers; titans of philosophy like Plato, Feuerbach, Nietzsche, Whitehead, Spinoza, Descartes and Marx; and modern thought leaders like Pierre Hadot, Charles Taylor, Robert Bellah, Jordan Peterson, Thomas Kuhn, Bertrand Russell, Jean Baudrillard, Michel Foucault, Roger Penrose, Galen Strawson, Mircea Eliade, Thomas Picketty, and Stan Grof.

Описание: This Critical Theory and Contemporary Society volume re-examines critical theory in light of the challenges raised by today`s digital revolution.
As Albert Einstein said: "actual problems can't be solved with the same way of thinking that existed at the moment that these problems came to be." It seems obvious, but it isn't Think about it: how many problems have you solved always thinking the same way? We're all part of the same system...
A useful system to identify a series of relationships that make our social and professional lives harder.
Life's problems concern today's sectors They can be economic problems, familiar, personal...
How did you learn to face these problems? Did you develop some kind of method, or did you keep thinking that they'd solve themselves?
I've heard many times people around me saying, "you have to change your mentality," or "don't be so negative," but let's speak clearly; CHANGING YOUR MENTALITY isn't as easy as it sounds. Plus, just continuously repeating it won't help anyone
Telling someone to change is very simple; eradicating a thought and turning the mentality that you've always had upside down isn't
But no This can't be an excuse to stay inside your personal bubble, especially if it's corrupt
Who said it was corrupt? If it wasn't, why are you here seeking for help?
If it wasn't, you would already have found a solution to your problems, but you haven't Am I right?
I wrote this book for MANY reasons, one of which was to help people open up their minds. I took a lot of time to understand that System Thinking is a way of reasoning that targets the relationships between contexts and integrated content.
It represents an alternative to our traditional scientific way of reasoning called "investigation" that's used to break down complex phenomena into many smaller components.
You're a combination of your own thoughts that influences the way you behave. Did you know that?
So, what is this book really good for? SYSTEM THINKING will be your guide towards the creation of a Critical way of Thinking, useful to identify your personal point of view, to recognize its fallibility, and to teach you how to hold your ground during an argument.

Описание: The Expanded View by Laura A. Brusca guides the reader toward a broader understanding of sacred teachings asserted by spiritually enlightened masters and mystics, revealing key principles that take us beyond spiritual development to complete conscious expansion. This book moves us past ordinary belief and explores belief founded on wisdom while confirming that we can live beyond the confines of duality in a space of oneness, also known as Advaita. The Expanded View also highlights language barriers that block us from true understanding and keep us confined in limited beliefs. Laura brings an inspiring message through commentaries on the revelations of multiple spiritual exponents who seek to guide us out of darkness and into a world of unencumbered joy. She attempts to bring new insight and understanding of spiritual scripture that has been honored and worshiped by many but often misunderstood. It is her mission, not to necessarily change, but widen the view to which we see our universe and empower our quest for enlightenment.
