There is a moment many of us have known. You are standing at a kitchen window, or pausing beside a garden bed, or driving past a stretch of lawn kept green and tidy — and feeling, underneath it all, a question you cannot quite form. Something has been lost. Something is asking to be tended. Life is Relationship begins in that moment — and walks you gently forward from it.

Belief: surely it's a relic from the past, a hangover from a superstitious age that is totally out of sync with today's rational, science-led culture? In today's science-driven, rational world, belief is dismissed as an artefact of a bygone era – something absurd at best, harmful at worst. The prevailing narratives paint belief as primitive, weird, even dangerous. But as life grows ever more confusing and our societies more atomised, contemplating something bigger than ourselves has never been more vital.

Letters from a Stoic is one of the essential works of Roman Stoic philosophy, offering a series of moral reflections on virtue, discipline, friendship, time, grief, mortality, wealth, simplicity, and the art of living well. Written as letters addressed to Lucilius, these meditations combine practical advice with deep philosophical insight, showing how reason, self-command, and inner freedom can help a person face uncertainty, loss, desire, and fear.

In this thought-provoking book, Antony Latham shows how science and philosophy provide evidence for the existence of God. There was a beginning of the universe, which requires an explanation beyond itself. The exquisite fine-tuning of the physical laws necessary for life has all the hallmarks of...

في الواقع، وكما ذكرنا ذلك سابقًا، تقترن درجة الوعي بمدى حساسية الكينونة. فكلما ازداد وعينا بالواقع كنا أكثر حساسية ضمنه، وستزداد، بذلك، قابليتنا لاختبار الشعور الكثيف بالفرح والمعاناة على حد سواء. إن نزعتنا إلى السعادة أو إلى التعاسة تنبع لاحقًا من تصوّرنا لحياة سعيدة، لأننا إذا اعتقدنا أن تحقيق السعادة يشترط عدم معرفة المعاناة، فسنتموقع آليًا، وعلى نحو من المفارقة، ضمن منظورٍ يُعزّز المعاناة بما أنّ الحياة لن تستجيب أبدًا لمثل هذه الانتظارات اللاواقعية، وسنكون بذلك في صراع دائم ضدّها.

This series is designed to help the lay Christian confidently proclaim and defend the faith. Too many Christians know "what" they believe, but not necessarily "why" they believe it.

Über das Hörbuch: "Epikurs Hauptlehren", überliefert durch Diogenes Laertios, fassen die wichtigsten Prinzipien der epikureischen Philosophie in 40 knappen Lehrsätzen zusammen.

You can argue about God forever, and not change your mind. Believers and non-believers often talk at cross purposes, both failing to grasp what is really going on when we argue about God. So where do we go when the facts run out? Philosophy. Braiding the thought of the Stoics, Spinoza, Kant and other leading philosophers together with meditations on religious experience, Christopher Insole takes us beyond the limits of reason to a place where we might find empathy and reverence for all of our fellow persons, each in the struggle to live a meaningful life.

Bhagavad-gita As It Is explores life's most enduring questions: Who am I? Why do I exist? How should I act in a world filled with uncertainty and conflict? Spoken on a battlefield at a moment of profound crisis, the Bhagavad-gita delivers timeless spiritual wisdom through a dialogue between Lord Krishna and the warrior Arjuna. As Arjuna stands paralyzed by doubt and moral confusion, Krishna guides him to a deeper understanding of the self, the purpose of action, and the principles of dharma, or the responsible action that leads to inner clarity and peace.

Transcendence for Beginners examines life writing and philosophy across certain European and Indian traditions, exploring questions of childhood and mortality, art and religion, beauty and loss. Informed by her experience as a biographer of Søren Kierkegaard and George Eliot as well as her own life, Clare Carlisle asks what one human existence can reveal, and how writing can transmit its truth.

In a world overflowing with to-do lists and self-help manuals, where pragmatism has a strong gravitational pull, it may feel like spending time in contemplation of the beauty and glory of the Lord is at best impractical and at worst irresponsible. After all, there is so much to do. Yet before we...

Jesus Said Stuff strips away centuries of dogma to provide a radical, pragmatic, and refreshingly honest look at the original "red letter" teachings as a practical manual for modern life. Cut through the centuries of dogma and political framing to rediscover the raw, unfiltered essence of the most influential figure in history. Jesus Said Stuff isn’t a dense theological treatise or a repetitive Sunday school lesson; it is a radical, pragmatic dive into the "red letters" of the Gospels.

Before the 10 Commandments, there were questions. Join Moses as he wrestles with whether God exists, whether beauty, morality, and truth are illusions, whether Zeus and Ra are actually atheists, and how he’s going to carry these two massive stone tablets down the mountain all by himself. Part novel, part philosophical debate, part mythological war of the gods, part irreverent screenplay about fighting demon-snakes—this book is the odd genre-mashup you can’t quite look away from.

The Unbecoming will help you to : See how identity, ego, and expectations can blur our experience of the present moment. Understand what real detachment looks like - free from fear and greed. Realize that creativity is born from stillness, not struggle. Embrace honest, authentic self-expression...

Em algum momento homens e mulheres se perdem no caminho da vida. É quando se perguntam sobre o real sentido de viver e, apesar de imersos em inseguranças e medos de mudar, sentem que é hora de trocar as lentes da alma para enxergar sob novas perspectivas. Nesta obra, Ingrid Guerra Azevedo compartilha experiências que Isabel, testemunha viva desse processo, atravessa durante o seu despertar de consciência, livre de religiões/filosofias, ao mesmo tempo permeado por diversos elementos que as compõem.

Since time immemorial, yogis, sages and mystics have forsaken the pleasures of the ordinary world and gone to secluded places to meditate, eager to attain even a momentary vision of Sri Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Fifty centuries ago that same Krishna descended from the transcendental world to reveal on earth His eternal spiritual pastimes, and the great sage Vyasadeva carefully recorded them in a book called the Bhagavata Purana. Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead is translated from that Purana by His Divine Grace A. C.

We all want to make sense of life—the good, the painful, the miraculous. Through eight lyrical and reflective essays, one of today's most thoughtful spiritual writers, Steven Garber, explores the idea of the "proximate"—a word from the Latin "proximatus," to draw near. Garber invites us to draw near to the deepest realities of life and to see with greater clarity and compassion—recognizing what is true, right, and beautiful in the world, even as we see the suffering all around us.
