Mental Philosophy

Unsere moderne Welt ist schnelllebig, chaotisch und sie schickt uns oft auf eine emotionale Achterbahnfahrt. Wir kämpfen darum, uns über Wasser zu halten, während wir von der Flut von Social Media, dem ständigen Verglichenwerden, dem Bedürfnis nach Erfolg und einem Mangel an Mäßigung mitgerissen werden. Wenn Sie bereit sind, diesem Wahnsinn ein Ende zu setzen, sind Sie nicht allein. Tatsächlich suchten schon die alten Griechen nach einem Weg, die Einfachheit in ihr Leben zurückzubringen.

Offering a unique insight into human behaviour, this book explains why we behave the way we do and what happens when humans interact with the world and each other. Starting with evolutionary biology and what it physically means to be a human being, this book moves on to include a wide range of topics such as artificial intelligence, virtual reality and how we are evolving as we interact with new technology.

By refusing to let other people's opinions about you influence your outlook on life, you reclaim power and learn to carve your path through the hurdles that might be thrown in your way. You may think right now that your existence is transient. You may believe with all certainty that you are unlovable and too flawed and too much or too less and too small or too big! What you don't realize is that this world was created solely for you to see among billions of beating hearts and blinking eyes!

What if human intelligence is actually more of a liability than a gift? After all, the animal kingdom, in all its diversity, gets by just fine without it. At first glance, human history is full of remarkable feats of intelligence, yet human exceptionalism can be a double-edged sword. With our unique cognitive prowess comes severe consequences, including existential angst, violence, discrimination and the creation of a world teetering towards climate catastrophe. What if human exceptionalism is more of a curse than a blessing?

More than two thousand years ago Stoicism revealed a way of living with less suffering and more happiness. Even though the Ancient Stoics lived a long time ago they had startling insights into the human condition which have lasted until this day. Stoicism sought answers to questions such as "how can I be more happy?" or "what is the purpose of life?" and much more. Stoicism can help us put things into perspective, let go of worry, overcome adversity, and improve our overall experience of life.

We have intrigued the topics of narcissism for decades, and social scientists now agree that the topic has become a new epidemic. The term narcissism started about 2000 years ago when Ovid wrote the Myth of the Narcissus, which tells the story of Narcissus, a beautiful Greek hunter who one day looks and loves his reflection in a water pool. He has his own appearance obsessed and can not leave his reflection until he dies. The concept of narcissism was first suggested by the famous psychoanalyst.

Everyone knows that boys are falling behind in education. Largely left out of the discussion are parents of boys, who are most aware that their bright, eager sons hit an invisible wall somewhere near fourth grade, after which they become disengaged, discouraged, and disaffected. There are dozens of books on underachieving boys, but most parents brave enough to lift one off the shelf are instantly intimidated by the footnotes, graphs, case studies, and academic-speak addressed almost entirely to educators.

Think back to when you were in school. Do you remember learning how to think critically? You were probably taught these skills in your English class while learning how to read and comprehend information. And while now you may do it automatically, at the time it was a process. A sometimes slow, painful process. Why is that? Because unfortunately, many educators do not know how to properly teach critical thinking skills (because they weren’t taught either).The improved intellectual quality of work happens when critical thinking is taught and nurtured in developmental stages.

Five years ago, I asked myself: Was I living or just existing? This led me on a journey of deep research and discovery, both of the outer world around me and my own inner world. I realized a lack of understanding leads to a lack of fulfillment and purpose in life, so this audiobook is an honest assessment of hard-hitting questions about beliefs and traditions we as a species have held for eons.

Por que temos o costume de dar importância apenas ao lugar mais alto do pódio? Por que somos tão obcecados pela perfeição? Será que nessa busca incessante pela excelência não estamos deixando de lado valores mais importantes, como a compaixão e a cooperação? Instigado por essas questões, o psiquiatra Daniel Martins de Barros se deparou com os lemas do Arcadismo, um antigo movimento artístico e literário que exaltava a simplicidade, a moderação e a reflexão.

La liberazione dell'eros nelle sue forme neglette e represse è il solo serio antidoto al predominio mortifero della Norma e del capitalismo. Si tratta, dice Mieli, di aprire una breccia nella psiche mutilata dalla dittatura della normalità per lasciar emergere la transessualità sepolta in ciascuno di noi, "l'ermafroditismo originario e profondo di ogni individuo".

Thomas Troward (1847-1916) was the founder of a syncretic metaphysical system, which he called Mental Science. He claimed that his philosophy was supported by the Bible, which he quoted copiously in his various books. In this pamphlet, published while the First World War was raging, Troward sought to demonstrate that the prophetic utterances in the Bible indicated that his readers were living in the End Times. However, Troward claimed that this apocalyptic period was not the end of the world, but the end of an age.
