If we are to right the world, we must first rectify our hearts, and this is why every revelation has been granted to humanity: to make firm our hearts.
Hearing the shofar on Rosh HaShana is, by some counts, the most spiritually potent moment of the year, and yet we model our performance of this holy mitzvah on Sisera’s hateful mother. How could the rabbis dignify her with this honor?

PREFACE
This book belongs to the most rare of men. Perhaps not one of them is yet alive. It is possible that they may be among those who understand my "Zarathustra": how could I confound myself with those who are now sprouting ears?--First the day after tomorrow must come for me. Some men are born posthumously.
The conditions under which any one understands me, and necessarily understands me--I know them only too well. Even to endure my seriousness, my passion, he must carry intellectual integrity to the verge of hardness. He must be accustomed to living on mountain tops--and to looking upon the wretched gabble of politics and nationalism as beneath him. He must have become indifferent; he must never ask of the truth whether it brings profit to him or a fatality to him... He must have an inclination, born of strength, for questions that no one has the courage for; the courage for the forbidden; predestination for the labyrinth. The experience of seven solitudes. New ears for new music. New eyes for what is most distant. A new conscience for truths that have hitherto remained unheard. And the will to economize in the grand manner--to hold together his strength, his enthusiasm...Reverence for self; love of self; absolute freedom of self.....
Very well, then! of that sort only are my readers, my true readers, my readers foreordained: of what account are the rest?--The rest are merely humanity.--One must make one's self superior to humanity, in power, in loftiness of soul,--in contempt.

--Let us look each other in the face. We are Hyperboreans--we know well enough how remote our place is. "Neither by land nor by water will you find the road to the Hyperboreans": even Pindar1,in his day, knew that much about us. Beyond the North, beyond the ice, beyond death--our life, our happiness...We have discovered that happiness; we know the way; we got our knowledge of it from thousands of years in the labyrinth. Who else has found it?--The man of today?--"I don't know either the way out or the way in; I am whatever doesn't know either the way out or the way in"--so sighs the man of today...This is the sort of modernity that made us ill,--we sickened on lazy peace, cowardly compromise, the whole virtuous dirtiness of the modern Yea and Nay. This tolerance and largeur of the heart that "forgives" everything because it "understands" everything is a sirocco to us. Rather live amid the ice than among modern virtues and other such south-winds! . . . We were brave enough; we spared neither ourselves nor others; but we were a long time finding out where to direct our courage. We grew dismal; they called us fatalists.

This document provides guidance on resisting Marxist tactics and the Black Lives Matter movement. It argues that BLM promotes a false gospel that undermines personal responsibility and leads to victimization. The document warns Christians not to compromise biblical principles or join with angry crowds promoting anarchy. It characterizes BLM as a dangerous cult that threatens Christian civilization and families. Readers are encouraged to stand up for the truth of Scripture alone against what it depicts as Marxist deception and revolutionary tactics.
The UNICEF estimates that an average of 353,000 babies are born each day around the world, with a global crude birth rate of 18.9 births per 1,000 population or 255 births per minute. During pregnancy, mothers and children swap cells via the placenta that sometimes persist in the mother's body for years. Childbirth involves three stages of labor culminating with the birth of one or more infants, and is rated as more painful than 20 bones fracturing simultaneously. Despite advancements, complications during pregnancy and childbirth still cause over 500,000 maternal deaths annually worldwide.
050a - CIVILIZATION AND CHRISTIAN COMMUNITIES, HYPOTHESIS OF COLLABORATIONS W...OrdineGesu
1. The document outlines the civil communities of the Order Jesus Redeemer and discusses the nature of man. It proposes alternative Christian communities that ban consumerism and promote sobriety, friendship, respect and positive thought.
2. It discusses the importance of awareness and conscience, stating that man limits himself to his own awareness and it is difficult to know ourselves without reflection. Religions must help people understand the truths of life.
3. It briefly defines conscience as feeling that man is pushed to live beyond himself. Self-knowledge and overcoming selfishness and egoism are keys to spiritual evolution, which is ensured for all men through laws like evolution, karma, reincarnation and forgiveness of sins.
Scapegoat theory, based on Rene Girard's ideas of mimetic desire and scapegoating, proposes that: 1) humans imitate each other's desires, which can lead to rivalry and violence; 2) societies defuse violence by unanimously directing it towards a scapegoat, who becomes the "other"; 3) examples can be seen in biblical texts like Deuteronomy that rationalize violence against enemies; 4) Osama bin Laden used similar rhetoric to justify violence against the West. An alternative view is that the crucifixion of Christ highlights humanity's capacity for violence rather than requiring an innocent sacrifice.
The document discusses how Jesus conquered death and removed its power through his victory on the cross. It provides three key points:
1) Death derives its power from sin, as sin is what brings death into the world. Its sting comes from the guilt and fear of punishment for sin.
2) Jesus destroyed the power of death by dying on the cross as an atonement for sin. Through faith in Christ, believers are forgiven of their sins and no longer fear death's punishment.
3) Believers can now experience victory over death, as Jesus conquered death through his resurrection. They no longer need to be in bondage to the fear of death because of their faith in Christ's victory.

The document discusses the perceived inferiority of women compared to men and aims to challenge those perceptions. It argues that while women may be physically weaker in some respects like muscle strength, they far surpass men in their ability to bear pain and care for children. It notes that women live longer than men and have greater patience. It also argues that women are more capable of love, compassion, beauty, music and dance. Overall, the document promotes a more balanced view of the strengths and capabilities of both women and men.
1) The document discusses how Christianity transformed views of death by teaching that those who die "in Jesus" will be resurrected when He returns, finding comfort in Jesus' own death and resurrection.
2) It provides examples from early Christians who faced death with joy and hope rather than sorrow, assured that their departed loved ones were with God.
3) It argues that believing "Jesus died and rose again" gives victory over death, as evidenced by how Christianity empowered and transfigured its early followers despite their facing death.
This document provides an overview of Islam's teachings regarding foods, drugs, smoking, and alcohol. It discusses the importance that Islam places on maintaining a healthy diet and body. It outlines which foods are permissible and prohibited according to the Quran and hadith. Prohibited items include carrion, blood, pork, and food invoked with other than Allah's name. The document also emphasizes the principle of moderation in eating and provides hadith stating the Prophet's teachings on this. Regarding drugs, it cites Quranic verses and many hadith declaring that all intoxicants are forbidden in Islam.
This document provides a summary of key concepts from a lecture on death and dying. It discusses different views of immortality, including living forever on Earth versus living forever elsewhere after death. It also examines how various religious and cultural traditions have portrayed immortality, often viewing an eternal life on Earth as dangerous or a violation of morality. While some hope science may find a way to prolong life or cure aging, most traditions accept mortality as inevitable. The document also discusses views of the afterlife and how they relate to ideas of judgment and morality.
The document discusses several social issues such as poverty, hunger, environmental degradation, and human well-being. It provides statistics showing that billions live in poverty without adequate food, water, or basic necessities. Much of the world's food is wasted while many go hungry. It argues that addressing these issues requires challenging the power of elites and prioritizing people over profits. Faith and spirituality and seen as important to empowering people and fostering compassion.
This document provides an introduction to the book "Purification of the Heart" which discusses spiritual diseases of the heart according to Islamic tradition. It acknowledges those who helped compile and translate the text. The introduction then discusses the importance of the heart in various religious and cultural traditions, and how the heart is seen as the spiritual and emotional center of a person. It explores various metaphors involving the heart and provides context on the heart's role and function in Islamic teachings.
"No one abuses without consequences.
Diseases share excesses...
Obsessions ride Imbalances...
Prisons segregate delinquency...
Expiatory reincarnations accompany follies...
Let us correct ourselves, before the world corrects us. We all know how to proclaim the merits of positive thinking; however, there is no positive thinking for good without straight thinking.
Time is that tireless advisor, who teaches each of us today, tomorrow and whenever no one can really play to live."
The document discusses the kingdom of God as presented through Jesus' actions. It describes the kingdom of God as found in Jesus' blessings of health, life, justice and forgiveness for people. These works of Jesus focused on life for human beings, mediated through his practice, rather than just proofs of his divinity. Behind Jesus' acts of healing and restoring people was an affirmation of human dignity and offering a counter-culture through his values of relationships and restoring people to community.
Black Lives Matter - a new Religious CultPeter Hammond
Black Lives Matter is described as a new religious cult that promotes a false gospel through Marxist ideology. It teaches victimization and revolution rather than personal responsibility. While claiming to support black lives, it also supports practices like abortion that disproportionately harm African Americans. The document argues that BLM should be resisted as it seeks to replace biblical authority with political correctness and undermines families, gender norms, and Christianity.
This document presents statistics about the demographics of a hypothetical village of 100 people that represents the global population. There would be 57 Asians, 21 Europeans, and 14 from the Americas. 6 people would own 59% of the world's wealth. 80 would live in substandard housing and 70 would be unable to read. It encourages the reader to appreciate what they have and work, love, dance, sing and live life to the fullest.
1. The song "One Day" by Matisyahu expresses hope for a future where people stop fighting, there are no more wars, and children can play in peace. The lyrics describe struggling through hard times but having faith that "some day it'll all turn around."
2. The document discusses how issues like climate change, water scarcity, and women's empowerment are interconnected globally. Solutions to problems in one area must help address challenges in other areas as well. It also notes how water and air have become polluted globally.
3. The brief news snippets cover a range of international stories, including celebrations in Spain for different religions, soccer matches between Mexico and Chile, a court ruling in Kenya,
At the 2016 CCIH Annual Conference, Dr. Dan O'Neill examines the theology behind sustainability, the Christian call to development, and how that relates to the Global Goals.
This document discusses healing in the biblical context. It begins by summarizing the story in Exodus where after being delivered from Egypt, the Israelites found bitter water in the wilderness and Moses healed it by throwing a log in it. God then revealed himself as Yahweh-Rophe, the Lord who heals. The document then discusses different aspects of healing in the Old and New Testaments. It focuses on healing meaning wholeness in body, mind and spirit. It provides suggestions for how to receive inner healing such as through faith, resting in God, holiness, forgiveness and giving. An example is given of John D. Rockefeller finding healing through changing his purpose to serving others.
The document discusses the transition from the modern to the postmodern world. Some key aspects of this transition include moving from exclusivity to inclusivity, from claims of inerrancy to allowing for correction, and viewing changes in conclusions similar to how science updates models over time based on new evidence. It also addresses the challenges of developing a Christian identity in a postmodern, multi-faith world.
This document contains prayers and reflections for peace from various religious traditions. It includes prayers from Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Jainism, Taoism, Sikhism, Zoroastrianism and Shinto. The prayers call for peace within oneself, between neighbors, in families, communities and nations so that peace may prevail on Earth. They emphasize cultivating compassion, kindness, forgiveness and love as paths to overcome conflict, violence and war.

This document discusses the challenges and opportunities for Christians to develop identities and practices that are benevolent toward other religions rather than hostile. It explores how historical events, doctrines, liturgies and missions have often divided people in the past but could be reinterpreted to bring people together. The document advocates for Christians to move beyond either strongly opposing or weakly engaging other faiths, and instead model hospitality, solidarity, and building understanding across religious differences.

Purificationofthe Heart
The Heart
Allah(SWT) says,"Onthat day nothingwill benefitthe humanbeing,neitherwealthnorchildren,only
the one who bringsAllahasoundheart."A soundheartisone thatis free of defectsandspiritual
blemishes.Thoughthe spiritual heartis centered inthe physical heart,the heartbeingreferredtohere
isthe spiritual heart,notthe physical heart.InancientChinese medicine,the hearthouseswhatis
knownas "chen"whichis"a spirit."The Chinese characterfor"thinking,""thought,""love,""virtue,"and
"intendingtolisten"all containthe ideogramforthe heart.Infact,in everyculture inthe world,people
use metaphorsthatdeal withthe heart;in English,we call people whoare cruel,"hard-heartedpeople."
There isalso the ideaof having "a coldheart" and"a warmheart."People whodonothide their
emotionswell"weartheirheartsontheirsleeves."Whendeeplyaffected,we say,"he affectedme in
my heart"or "inmy core."In fact, the Englishword"core"means"innermost,"andinArabic,the
equivalent"lub"comesfromthe Latinword,meaning"heart."Thus,the core of the humanbeingis
indeedthe heart.The word"courage"alsocomesfromthe same rootword as for "heart"because
courage is centredinthe heart.The mostancientIndo-Europeanwordforheartmeans"thatwhich
leaps."The heartleapsor beatsinthe breastof man.For example,peoplesay,"myheartskippeda
beat"in reactiontoseeingsomebody.Manysuchmetaphorsare usedfor the heart.
2. Three Types of People
The ancientswere aware of the spiritual diseasesof the heart,andthisiscertainlyat the essence of the
Islamicteaching.One of the firstthingsthe Qurandoesis define three typesof people:the mu'minun,
the kafirun,andthe munafiqun.The mu'minunare peoplewhose heartsare alive while the kafirunare
people whose heartsare dead.The munafiqunare people whohave adisease orasicknessintheir

Thisis alsoinaccordance withanotherverse:"Whentheirheartsdeviated,Allahmade themdeviate

The Heart and the Brain
The actual physical heartinour breastbeatsat about 100,000 timesa day,pumpingtwogallonsof
bloodperminute,100 gallonsperhour,24 hours a day,sevendaysa week, 365 daysa year foran entire
life time!The vascularsystemthatsendsthislife-givingbloodisover60,000 mileslong:itismore than
twotimesthe circumference of the earth.Furthermore,itisinterestingtonote thatthe heart starts
beatingbefore the brainisformed;the heartbeginstobeatwithoutanycentral nervoussystem.The
dominanttheory wasthatthe central nervoussystemiswhatiscontrollingthe entirehumanbeingfrom
the brain,yetwe knownow that infact the nervoussystemdoesnotinitiatethe heartbeat.Itisactually
self-initiated;we wouldsay,itisinitiatedbyAllah(SWT).
The heart isthe centerof the humanbeing.Many people thinkthe brainisthe centerof consciousness,
yetthe Quran clearlystates,"Theyhave heartsthattheyare notable to understandwith."Accordingto
the Muslims,the centerof humanconsciousness isthe heartandnot the brainitself,anditisonly
recentlythathumanbeingshave learnedthere are over40,000 neuronsinthe heart;inotherwords,
there are cellsinthe heart that are communicating.Now,itisunderstoodthatthere istwo-way
communicationbetweenthe brainandthe heart:the brainsendsmessagestothe heart,butthe heart
alsosendsmessagestothe brain.The brainreceivesthese messagesfromthe heart,whichreachthe
amygdalaand the thalamus.The cortex receivesinputfromthe amygdalaandthalamusthatit processes
to produce emotion;the newcortex relatestolearningandreasoning.Theseprocessesare recent
discoveries,andalthoughwe donotfullyunderstandthem,we doknow thatthe heart isan extremely
sophisticatedorgan.
Accordingto the hadith,the heartisa source of knowledge.The Prophet,sallallahu'alayhi wasallam,
saidthat wrongaction iswhatirritatesthe heart.Thus,the heartactuallyknowswrong actions, andthis
isone of the reasonswhypeople cando terrible things,but,ultimately,theyare affectednegatively.In
Crime andPunishment,the brilliantRussianauthorDostoevsky'sindicatesthatcrime itself isthe
perpetrator'spunishmentbecausehumanbeingshave tolive withthe resultof theiractions:theirsouls
are affected.Whenpeople dosomethingagainstthe heart,theyactagainstthe soul,andthat actually
affectshumanbeingstothe degree thattheywill gointoa state of spiritual agitation,andpeoplewill
use manyways to coverthisup.This iswhat kufris:"kufr"means"coveringup."To hide theiragitation,
people use alcohol,drugs,andsexualexperimentation;theyalsoseekpower,wealth,andfame,
takingthemselves intoastate of heedlessness,submergingthemselvesintothe ephemeralworldwhich
