Presenting vivid pictures of Gautama Buddha's life, teaching, suffering, death and subsequent nirvāṇa, the Mahāparinibbānasutta is one of the principal Buddhist texts. In Hermann Beckh's words, it describes '...one of the greatest human beings that ever lived, who stood at the threshold of the super-human – a teacher and leader of humanity.' Prof. Beckh's translation of this important sutta achieved a quality and faithfulness that was based on decades of extensive study and meditation. From his academic and spiritual knowledge, Beckh added insightful editorial material, including an introduction, commentary and notes. The English rendering here, by Indologist and long-standing Buddhist practitioner Dr Katrin Binder, is based on both the original Pālī and Beckh's German translation. An afterword by Thomas Meyer, informed by Rudolf Steiner's research, traces the development of Buddha's individuality in the afterlife. Departure of the Perfected One brings to a conclusion the publication of Beckh's great triad of works on the subject of Buddha, including Buddha's Life and Teaching and From Buddha to Christ. Through a contemporary reading, these books open up vast new perspectives on the world of sacred Buddhist scriptures to anyone interested in spiritual development.

Most studies of the history of interpretation of Song of Songs focus on its interpretation from late antiquity to modernity. In My Perfect One, Jonathan Kaplan examines earlier rabbinic interpretation of this work by investigating an underappreciated collection of works of rabbinic literature from the first few centuries of the Common Era, known as the tannaitic midrashim. In a departure from earlier scholarship that too quickly classified rabbinic interpretation of Song of Songs as allegorical, Kaplan advocates a more nuanced reading of the approach of the early sages, who read Song of Songs through a mode of typological interpretation concerned with the correspondence between Scripture and ideal events in Israel's history. Throughout the book Kaplan explores ways in which this portrayal helped shape a model vision of rabbinic piety as well as of an idealized vision of their beloved, God, in the wake of the destruction, dislocation, and loss the Jewish community experienced in the first two centuries of the Common Era. The archetypal and idealized language of Song of Songs provided, as Kaplan argues, a textual landscape in which to imagine an idyllic construction of Israel's relationship to her beloved, marked by mutual devotion and fidelity. Through this approach to Song of Songs, the Tannaim helped lay the foundations for later Jewish thought of a robust theology of intimacy in God's relationship with the Jewish people.

The Perfect Book is a scientific-religious book that reveals great unprecedented facts about where Allah was before the beginning of this world, how He began it, and the true theories related to the origin of the universe and the creation of everything. These facts and theories are discussed in a well-organized and logical order that challenges the religious heritage underlying human thought for centuries, to make it easier for the readers to understand the secrets of the earliest days of this universe.One of the most important scientific facts covered in this book is that the first thing created was water, then the Divine Throne, inside which an atomic body was created in a heterogeneous, unstable state that did not allow such orderly and sophisticated patterns of atoms to make chemical reactions or produce chemical elements. Then, that primordial body was parted, and its atoms formed the elements in the heavens and the earth, from which the bodies of creatures were created. Finally, Allah gave souls by breathing or ordering to these bodies to make them living beings.The book contains an illustration of how the universe looked after it was created in 14 days and how it is surrounded by water, above which lies the Divine Throne.The book shows that the ancient Egyptians were the first to discover atoms and the role of carbon in the life of everything. They were skillful at transforming staffs and ropes into activated carbon that could attract dust just as a magnet attracts iron, so the staffs and ropes would look as if turning into moving snakes when thrown on the ground. Prophet Moses brought for them the Message of Torah, which revolved around atoms, the source of everything, to show them that their atomic knowledge was only a reflection of Allah's Power over creation, by ordering Moses' staff to turn into a real snake.The book scientifically differentiates between the human self (soul) and the human Spirit ; clarifies that the human self (soul) has its own senses, and heart; and explains the concepts of death and lesser death, how the Spirit works with the body in the life, and how it works with human self after lesser death.The book discusses how Prophet Solomon could communicate with the jinn, birds, the mountains, and the wind; the Gospel as a Divine Message focused on the soul of living beings and how it is given by Allah; how Prophet Jesus was created with the power to breathe life into a clay bird, with the Permission of Allah.Only this book can tell you about the language used by Prophet Jesus and in which the Gospel was revealed to the Children of Israel, as well as the phases of human life from childhood to elderliness, and the two types of carbon that affect these phases.The book concludes with an assertion that challenges the claim of moon landing: The moon is composed of glassy carbon (a type of carbon that becomes glassy when exposed to a direct source of heat in the absence of elements that can react with it, particularly oxygen and hydrogen). As such, it is impossible for anything to approach or touch the surface of the moon, because the atoms of lunar carbon are excited by the absorbed solar energy, which causes it to send light to the earth. Also, one of its hemispheres is hot and activated, while the other is melted down and hot. As a result, anything that gets near to it will definitely melt down.This book is the translated version of Almastor book By Sameh Nagi Abdu Farag, "Almastor book" (in Arabic) means, The perfect book.
