Softcover. Condizione: used. 1. Jeffrey Kripal here recounts the spectacular history of Esalen, the institute that has long been a world leader in alternative and experiential education and stands today at the center of the human potential movement. Forged in the literary and mythical leanings of the Beat Generation, inspired in the lecture halls of Stanford by radical scholars of comparative religion, the institute was the remarkable brainchild of Michael Murphy and Richard Price.Set against the heady backdrop of California during the revolutionary 1960s, Esalen recounts in fascinating detail how these two maverick thinkers sought to fuse the spiritual revelations of the East with the scientific revolutions of the West, or to combine the very best elements of Zen Buddhism, Western psychology, and Indian yoga into a decidedly utopian vision that rejected the dogmas of conventional religion. In their religion of no religion, the natural world was just as crucial as the spiritual one, science and faith not only commingled but became staunch allies, and the enlightenment of the body could lead to the full realization of our development as human beings.An impressive new book. . . . [Kripal] has written the definitive intellectual history of the ideas behind the institute.-San Francisco ChronicleKripal examines Esalens extraordinary history and evocatively describes the breech birth of Murphy and Prices brainchild. His real achievement, though, is effortlessly synthesizing a dizzying array of dissonant phenomena (Cold War espionage, ecstatic religiosity), incongruous pairings (Darwinism, Tantric sex), and otherwise schizy ephemera (psychedelic drugs, spaceflight) into a cogent, satisfyingly complete narrative.-Atlantic MonthlyKripal has produced the first all-encompassing history of Esalen: its intellectual, social, personal, literary and spiritual passages. Kripal brings us up-to-date and takes us deep beneath historical surfaces in this definitive, elegantly written book.-Playboy.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. A visionary new worldview of the cosmos, human consciousness and their intimate connection, by a prominent Professor of Religion.Why do we know so much more about the cosmos than our own consciousness? Are there limits to the scientific method? Why do we assume that only science, mathematics and technology reveal truth?The Flip shows us what happens when we realise that consciousness is fundamental to the cosmos and not some random evolutionary accident or surface cognitive illusion; that everything is alive, connected, and 'one'. We meet the people who have made this visionary, intuitive leap towards new forms of knowledge- Mark Twain's prophetic dreams, Marie Curie's seances, Einstein's cosmically attuned mind. But these forms of knowledge are not archaic; indeed, they are essential in a universe that has evolved specifically to be understandable by the consciousnesses we inhabit.The Flip peels back the layers of our beliefs about the world to reveal a visionary, new way of understanding ourselves and everything around us, with huge repercussions for how we live our lives. After all, once we have flipped, we understand that the cosmos is not just human. The human is also cosmic.

Appendix: documentary film and video resources for teaching on Kali and Fierce Goddesses/Sarah Caldwell. Select bibliography. Index. "Encountering Kali explores one of the most remarkable divinities the world has seen. The Hindu Goddess Kali is simultaneously understood as a blood-thirsty warrior, a deity of ritual possession, a Tantric sexual partner, and an all loving, compassionate mother. Popular and scholarly interest in her has been on the rise in the west in recent years. Responding to this phenomenon, McDermott and Kripal's volume focuses on the complexities involved in interpreting Kali in both her indigenous South Asian settings and her more recent western incarnations. Through the shifting lenses of scriptural history, temple architecture, political violence, feminist and psychoanalytic criticism, autobiographical reflection, and the Goddess's recent guises on the internet, the contributors pose questions that illuminate our understanding of Kali while addressing the problems and promises inherent in every act of cross cultural interpretation."

Da: Agapea Libros, Malaga, Spagna
Condizione: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Colección: Sabiduría perenne. El mundo académico ha desacreditado la investigación de lo paranormal alegando que se trata de pseudociencia y de un menester frívolo propio de majaretas y crédulos. Autores de lo imposible representa un serio desafío intelectual a las suposiciones epistemológicas que rigen tanto en el trabajo de los científicos como en el de los estudiosos de la religión. Jeffrey Kripal nos invita a un cambio de paradigma para dar cuenta de lo extraño, lo anómalo y lo inexplicable. Y es que la historia de los fenómenos paranormales es una fuente de acceso a lo sagrado que está aún por descubrir. Kripal centra su estudio en el trabajo realizado por cuatro figuras cardinales de lo paranormal: el investigador psíquico Frederic Myers; el escritor y humorista Charles Fort; el astrónomo, informático y ufólogo Jacques Vallée; y el filósofo y sociólogo Bertrand Méheust. A través de un amenísimo análisis de estos pensadores, Kripal nos sumerge en un mundo cautivador, situado en algún lugar entre la realidad, la ficción y el fraude. Es la historia cultural de la telepatía, la teleportación y los ovnis; una historia fantasmagórica de amor; la dimensión oculta de la ciencia ficción; el espionaje psíquico de la guerra fría; el colonialismo galáctico; y la relación íntima entre la consciencia y la cultura. Todo estos vectores convergen en Autores de lo imposible, una mirada brillante a la forma cómo lo paranormal vincula lo sagrado y lo científico. Jeffrey J. Kripal es profesor en filosofía y pensamiento religioso en la Universidad de Rice. Es autor de numerosos libros, entre los que destaca Esalen: America and the Religion of No Religion y The Serpent's Gift: Gnostic Reflections on the Study of Religion.
