Poder, Política y Cambio: ¿Cómo puedo ayudar a hacer del mundo un lugar mejor?

by Osho

El poder no corrompe, asegura Osho, es el hombre corrupto quien encuentra en las circunstancias una manera de expresar lo que lleva dentro. Poder, política y cambio es un libro que plantea la problemática de una realidad que alcanza a la humanidad entera y que es posible cambiar. Si bien los regímenes de gobierno y la religión son los blancos más visibles de estas reflexiones, la ambición es parte intrínseca de cada persona, por lo tanto, es necesario partir del espíritu propio para cambiar al mundo. El hombre iluminado da, simplemente. No porque quiera sacar algo de ti; tú no tienes nada para darle. Él da porque tiene mucho, lleva una sobrecarga. Da porque es una nube cargada de lluvia, tan llena de agua que tiene que llover. No importa dónde, sobre qué: las piedras, el suelo fértil, los jardines, el mar; es igual. La nube sólo quiere descargarse.

The Poems of Jesus Christ

by Willis Barnstone

The words of Jesus Christ are restored to their original poetic form ?in this extraordinary volume. Jesus Christ, whose teachings have been on the lips of millions for two millennia, is revealed here as one of the greatest poets of all time. What happened to deafen us to the poetic nature of his words? In migrating from Aramaic speech into written Greek translation, and later into English translation, the lyrics got locked up as prose. In The Poems of Jesus Christ Willis Barnstone unveils the essential poetry of the Gospels by taking the direct speech of Jesus from Mark, Matthew, Luke, and John, and lineating and titling Jesus's words as individual poems. Jesus's poems are wisdom lyrics and narrative parables, rich with garden, animal, and nature imagery. Austere and poignant, they carry the totality of the Gospels' message through the intensity of a single voice--the Gospel of Jesus.

The Poems of St. John of the Cross

by Willis Barnstone

Saint John's poetry of love and joy describes the soul's passage through dark night to final illumination in mystical union with Absolute Being. The allegory the poet uses is that of earthly love, and the poems are strikingly effective on the immediate level of personal experience, quite apart from their theological meanings. Many critics regard the work of Saint John of the Cross (1542-91), the 16th-century mystic, to be among the finest poetry Spain has produced. This bilingual edition, the first in modern English, was originally published in hard cover in 1968 by the Indiana University Press. Most of these poems were written during a period of nine months, in 1577-78, when Saint John (San Juan de la Cruz) was imprisoned and tortured in the dungeon of a small Carmelite monastery in Toledo, and their recurrent motifs are both metaphysical and deeply personal.

Poems, Protest, and a Dream

by Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz Margaret Sayers Peden

Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz (1648-1695) wrote her most famous prose work, La Respuesta a Sor Filotea, in 1691 in response to her bishop's injunction against her intellectual pursuits. A passionate and subversive defense of the rights of women to study, to teach, and to write, it predates by almost a century and a half serious writings on any continent about the position and education of women. Moreover, notes Ilan Stavans in his introduction, it has become "a cornerstone of Hispanic-American identity ... at once a chronicle of the tense gender relations in the Western Hemisphere, a rich portrait of the social behavior that prevailed more than a century before independence from Spain was gained in 1810, and the very first intellectual autobiography written by a criolla in a hemisphere known for its solipsism, introversion, and allergy to public confessions. Also included in this wide-ranging selection is a new translation of Sor Juana's masterpiece, the epistemological poem "Primero Sueno, " as well as revealing autobiographical sonnets, reverential religious poetry, secular love poems (which have excited speculation through three centuries), playful verses, and lyrical tributes to New World culture that are among the earliest writings celebrating the people and the customs of this hemisphere.
