I had to dedicate this piece of work to our long, long struggle because after all which we have experienced, we have not given up. We have been pushed way beyond our limits and we are now learning that we have all strengths, all powers, that we truly do not have any limitations so we should also know that we should have no fears. In this cosmic battle taking place on this physical plane, on a planet call Earth, it is the warrior within the soul, which has carried us thus far, it is the warrior component of our being, which has allowed us to say to this day, we want back the planet. Without the warrior’s aspectability, our warrior within, how would we have been able to clear the paths within our hearts to even want to fight back, about the coffle lines, after the dungeons, after the sailing labyrinths, after the plantations, after the united states constitution, after the ghetto isolations, after the prison camps, after the drug epidemic then our dis-uniting which has evolved into a civil war, it is our warrior, which has carried us this far. We are on two fronts fighting, the worst enemy ever, in a land which is dangerous, far from home, surrounded and completely infiltrated by this enemy, mentally, physically, spiritually, psychologically, genetically, with the lost of our gods, our language, our connection to the universe. Our only means to survive and to win is for our warrior within, to prepare to kill and to die. But first, our warriors within must defend, defeat and clean, our inner atmosphere, our inner demons, our inner enemies. Only with the warrior’s aspectability can the will be used with the mind and heart to achieve complete victory, complete harmony with ourselves and our universe, our GODS.

While most works on Nicholas of Cusa concentrate either on his early career as author of the monumental 'Catholic Concordance' or on his later career as writer of remarkable philosophical/theological works such as 'On Learned Ignorance' and 'The Vision of God', the essays included here attempt to address the whole Cusanus, sharing common contexts, issues and themes. Following chapters on the legacy of conciliarism and ecumenicity, the story begins with the Council of Basel for which Cusanus wrote 'The Catholic Concordance', but from which he broke away, raising issues of private conscience as well as the balance between papal authority and representative councils in the pursuit of reform. The story then turns to the 'matrix' between Constantinople and a new council in Ferrara when Cusanus received a ship-board gift from the 'Father of Lights' and began to write his great philosophical/theological treatises. When taken together the essays in this book not only form a cohesive whole, they also enlighten aspects often left in the shade, such as the enigmatic aspects of Cusanus' participation in the council, and his mystical theology that reveals a man of faith in search of certainty beyond the well-trod paths of philosophical reflection.

In this provocative essay collection, an award-winning writer shares her personal and reportorial investigation into America’s search for meaning. A Los Angeles Times Bestseller A Lit Hub | Chicago Review | Ms. Magazine March Pick A Lambda Literary Most Anticipated Book When Jordan Kisner was a child, she was saved by Jesus Christ at summer camp, much to the confusion of her nonreligious family. She was, she writes, “just naturally reverent,” a fact that didn’t change when she—much to her own confusion—lost her faith as a teenager. Not sure why her religious conviction had come or where it had gone, she did what anyone would do: “You go about the great American work of assigning yourself to other gods: yoga, talk radio, neoatheism, CrossFit, cleanses, football, the academy, the American Dream, Beyoncé.” A curiosity about the subtle systems guiding contemporary life pervades Kisner’s work. Her celebrated essay “Thin Places” (Best American Essays 2016), about an experimental neurosurgery developed to treat severe obsessive-compulsive disorder, asks how putting the neural touchpoint of the soul on a pacemaker may collide science and psychology with philosophical questions about illness, the limits of the self, and spiritual transformation. How should she understand the appearance of her own obsessive-compulsive disorder at the very age she lost her faith? Intellectually curious and emotionally engaging, the essays in Thin Places manage to be both intimate and expansive, illuminating an unusual facet of American life, as well as how it reverberates with the author’s past and present preoccupations. “An unsettling and an endlessly curious read.” —Sarah Neilson, Electric Literature

"Medieval documents reveal that for centuries of European history, singing for a person at the moment of death was considered to be the ideal accompaniment to a life's ending. Rituals for the dying were well developed, practiced widely, and thoroughly integrated with music. Indeed, these rituals reveal that music, rather than the Eucharist, held a privileged position at the final breath. Music in Medieval Rituals for the End of Life examines and recovers, to the extent possible, the music sung for the dying during the Middle Ages. The book offers a view of the plainchant repertory through the sources of individual institutions. The first four chapters contain a series of "case studies": close readings of rituals from diverse communities, each as they appear in a single source. The rituals' chants are transcribed into modern notation and analyzed, both for their relationships between text and melody and for their functions within the rituals. Created for the powerful and the poor, the educated and the uneducated, women and men, monastics, clerics, and laity, these manuscripts offer a glimpse into the religious practices that distinguished communities from one another and bound them together within a single tradition. The book provides the first editions of the rituals' chants and considers the functions of the music. Why was music given such a prominent position within the deathbed liturgies? Why did communities gather and sing when a loved one was dying? The manuscripts reveal a lost art of comforting the dying and the grieving"--
