Описание:
In Religious but Not Religious, Jungian analyst Jason E. Smith explores the idea, expressed by C.G. Jung, that the religious sense is a natural and vital function of the human psyche. We suffer from its lack.
The symbolic forms of religion mediate unconscious and ineffable experiences to the field of consciousness that infuse our lives with meaning and purpose. That is why we cannot be indifferent toward the decline of traditional religious observance so widely discussed today. The great religions house the accumulated spiritual wisdom of humankind, and their loss would be catastrophic to the human soul.
As human beings, we hunger for spiritual experience. To be "spiritual but not religious" is one possible response, but it often doesn't go far enough. All too easily it can become a kind of do-it-yourself spirituality, which lacks the capacity to effect the kind of growth and transformation that is the true goal of all the religious traditions.
Smith argues that we need to be "religious but not religious." We need an approach to religion that recognizes the essential importance of the individual spiritual adventure while also affirming the value of collective religious tradition. He articulates an understanding of religion as a participation in the symbolic life as opposed to a mere content of belief. By recovering our personal sensitivity for symbolic experience together with a symbolic understanding of religion, we facilitate a profound encounter with life and with the human condition through which one may be tested, tried, and transformed.

Описание:
This book provides an analysis of the individual and social dynamics of racism and hatred, an analysis of the specific characteristics of the most malignant leaders and monsters in history as well as social analyzes of why huge populations of people have chosen to follow these monsters. Their conclusions come back to the existential issues we all face as human beings as well as the social influences perpetuated by an authoritarian patriarchy. The mechanisms of manipulation of totalistic movements are clearly described and upon reflection will be familiar to any reader.
The Monsters who have devastated civilization and murdered hundreds of millions of people have always had special advantages that allowed them to keep their subjects in a state of fear, they have controlled the media and had special access to finances, justice departments, military forces, and more often than not had secret police organizations that terrorized people to maintain control behind the scenes.
At the same time, we are facing a crisis in the world that threatens our survival. Although our societies have relied on science and reason, we have largely lost the spiritual dimension that used to unite societies of people. It is astonishing that through quantum physics and science the existence of this underlying reality has been confirmed and has given rise to incredibly powerful momentums for social change and the restoration of human dignity.
The last section of the book brings together the areas of wisdom explored and focuses especially on the role of the individual who is, after all, the only one to whom the soul is given. Each one of us is responsible for our role in society and the world. The Statue of Liberty on the East Coast was a tremendous symbol of hope for many immigrants who came to America. Annie Moore, was the first Irish immigrant to arrive. It is time that a Statue of Responsibility be built on the West Coast to acknowledge that each one of us has the responsibility of fulfilling our own personal destiny in life and facing our existential ultimate concerns.
The role of parents and society remain immensely important and these must be addressed together. Steven Pinker has shown that reason, science and humanism have, in fact, made the world a better place and we must continue these endeavors. We must strengthen our internal spiritual dimensions and both males and females must learn how to better embrace the feminine principle that allows us access to our internal world of feelings and the intuitions of our unconscious. We are being swept up into an amazing and powerful renaissance of change that has the power to restore our human dignity and this is a gift we have the choice of receiving with all our hearts.

Описание: What stands out about racism is its ability to withstand efforts to legislate or educate it away. In The Racist Fantasy, Todd McGowan argues that its persistence is due to a massive unconscious investment in a fundamental racist fantasy. As long as this fantasy continues to underlie contemporary society, McGowan claims, racism will remain with us, no matter how strenuously we struggle to eliminate it. The racist fantasy, a fantasy in which the racial other is a figure who blocks the enjoyment of the racist, is a shared social structure. No one individual invented it, and no one individual is responsible for its perpetuation. While no one is guilty for the emergence of the racist fantasy, people are nonetheless responsible for keeping it alive and thus responsible for fighting against it. The Racist Fantasy examines how this fantasy provides the psychic basis for the racism that appears so conspicuously throughout modern history. The racist fantasy informs everything from lynching and police shootings to Hollywood blockbusters and musical tastes. This fantasy takes root under capitalism as a way of explaining the failures and disappointments that result from the relationship to the commodity. The struggle against racism involves dislodging the fantasy structure and to change the capitalist relations that require it. This is the project of this book.

This critical analysis investigates the causes that brought about one of the most tumultuous periods in modern Egyptian history - the clashes between the Muslims and Copts during the 1970s. A unique retrospective, it features probing interviews with Egyptian intellectuals, writers, political and religious leaders, as well as common citizens from both the Muslim and Copt communities. Within a framework of economic, political and ideological factors, Nadia Ramsis Farah is able to synthesize a compelling portrait of a troubled national conscience in the face of religious strife.

The study shows that theological resistance and political and social inhibitors can, ironically, make the human rights concept inappropriate for gaining rights for religious women.

Описание:
Human rights and their principles of interpretation are the leading legal paradigms of our time. Freedom of religion occupies a pivotal position in rights discourses, and the principles supporting its interpretation receive increasing attention from courts and legislative bodies. This book critically evaluates religious pluralism as an emerging legal principle arising from attempts to define the boundaries of freedom of religion. It examines religious pluralism as an underlying aspect of different human rights regimes and constitutional traditions. It is, however, the static and liberal shape religious pluralism has assumed that is taken up critically here. In order to address how difference is vulnerable to elimination, rather than recognition, the book takes up a contemporary ethics of alterity. More generally, and through its reconstruction of a more difference-friendly vision of religious pluralism, it tackles the problem of the role of rights in the era of diverse narratives of emancipation.
