Angewandte Menschlichkeit
by Dada BhagwanJeder Mensch führt ein Leben, aber wieviel Menschlichkeit besitzt er? Geburt, Ausbildung, Beruf, Ehe, Kinder, Familie und am Ende... der Tod! Ist dies der Standardzyklus des Lebens, dem man folgen muss? Was ist das Endziel eines solchen Lebens? Warum werden wir geboren? Was wollen wir? Der menschliche Körper, den wir erhalten haben, sollte die Aufgabe erfüllen, menschlich zu sein. Im Leben sollte Menschlichkeit sein. Aber was ist laut Param Pujya Dadashri, dem Gnani Purush (dem Erleuchteten),Menschlichkeit? Die Definition von Menschlichkeit ist, dass es dir nicht gefällt, wenn dich jemand verletzt, dir Schwierigkeiten macht. Deshalb solltest du auch niemanden verletzen. Das ist Seiner Meinung nach die größte Menschlichkeit. Wer das versteht und im Leben anwendet, weiß, was Menschlichkeit ist. Einen menschlichen Körper zu bekommen bedeutet, dass man die Freiheit hat, in jede der vier Lebensformen (Gattis) zu gehen. Eine davon ist die menschliche Form, die anderen drei sind die tierische Form, Devgatti(Himmel/Himmlisches Wesen) und NarakGatti(Hölle/bestialische Form). Was auch immer die Ursachen sind, so sind auch die Wirkungen. Wenn wir Menschlichkeit zeigen, werden wir in der nächsten Geburt einen menschlichen Körper bekommen. Wenn wir unmenschlich sind, werden wir in der Tierform wiedergeboren. Wenn wir extrem schlecht und unmenschlich sind, werden wir in NarakGattiwiedergeboren. Wenn wir unser Leben damit verbringen, anderen Gutes zu tun, und ihnen ohne irgendwelche Erwartungen zu helfen, dann erhalten wir ein Leben in Devgatti. In diesem Buch hat Param Pujya Dadashri die Konzepte der Menschlichkeit mit der bescheidenen Absicht erörtert, damit das menschliche Leben der Menschen, wenn sie etwas über Menschlichkeit lernen,fruchtbar sein wird.
The Angola Prison Seminary: Effects of Faith-Based Ministry on Identity Transformation, Desistance, and Rehabilitation (Innovations in Corrections #1)
by Michael Hallett Joshua Hays Byron R. Johnson Sung Joon Jang Grant DuweCorrections officials faced with rising populations and shrinking budgets have increasingly welcomed "faith-based" providers offering services at no cost to help meet the needs of inmates. Drawing from three years of on-site research, this book utilizes survey analysis along with life-history interviews of inmates and staff to explore the history, purpose, and functioning of the Inmate Minister program at Louisiana State Penitentiary (aka "Angola"), America’s largest maximum-security prison. This book takes seriously attributions from inmates that faith is helpful for "surviving prison" and explores the implications of religious programming for an American corrections system in crisis, featuring high recidivism, dehumanizing violence, and often draconian punishments. A first-of-its-kind prototype in a quickly expanding policy arena, Angola’s unique Inmate Minister program deploys trained graduates of the New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in bi-vocational pastoral service roles throughout the prison. Inmates lead their own congregations and serve in lay-ministry capacities in hospice, cell block visitation, delivery of familial death notifications to fellow inmates, "sidewalk counseling" and tier ministry, officiating inmate funerals, and delivering "care packages" to indigent prisoners. Life-history interviews uncover deep-level change in self-identity corresponding with a growing body of research on identity change and religiously motivated desistance. The concluding chapter addresses concerns regarding the First Amendment, the dysfunctional state of U.S. corrections, and directions for future research.

The Angry Therapist: A No BS Guide to Finding and Living Your Own Truth
by John KimTackling relationships, career, and family issues, John Kim, LMFT, thinks of himself as a life-styledesigner, not a therapist. His radical new approach, that he sometimes calls “self-help in a shot glass” is easy, real, and to the point. He helps people make changes to their lives so that personal growth happens organically, just by living. Let’s face it, therapy is a luxury. Few of us have the time or money to devote to going to an office every week. With anecdotes illustrating principles in action (in relatable and sometimes irreverent fashion) and stand-alone practices and exercises, Kim gives readers the tools and directions to focus on what's right with them instead of what's wrong. When John Kim was going through the end of a relationship, he began blogging as The Angry Therapist, documenting his personal journey post-divorce. Traditional therapists avoid transparency, but Kim preferred the language of "me too" as opposed to "you should." He blogged about his own shortcomings, revelations, views on relationships, and the world. He spoke a different therapeutic language —open, raw, and at times subversive — and people responded. The Angry Therapist blog, that inspired this book, has been featured in The Atlantic Monthly and on NPR.

The Anna Karenina Fix: Life Lessons from Russian Literature
by Viv Groskop“In this hilarious, candid, and thought-provoking memoir, [Groskop] explains how she used lessons from Russian classics to understand herself better.” —Gretchen Rubin, #1 New York Times–bestselling authorAs Viv Groskop knows from personal experience, everything that has ever happened to a person has already happened in the Russian classics: from not being sure what to do with your life (Anna Karenina), to being hopelessly in love with someone who doesn’t love you back (Turgenev’s A Month in the Country), or being socially anxious about your appearance (all of Chekhov’s work). In The Anna Karenina Fix, a sort of literary self-help memoir, Groskop mines these and other works, as well as the lives of their celebrated creators, and her own experiences as a student of Russian, to answer the question “How should you live your life?” This is a charming and fiercely intelligent book, a love letter to Russian literature and an exploration of the answers these writers found to life’s questions.“[Groskop is] a delight, a reader’s reader whose professional and personal experiences have allowed her to write the kind of book that not only is complete unto itself, but makes you want to head to the library and revisit or discover the great works she loves.” —The Washington Post“Learn how to hack life nineteenth-century Russian style! You’ll totally be like Anna Karenina without getting (spoiler alert) run over by a train!” —Gary Shteyngart, New York Times-bestselling author“For anyone intimidated by Russia’s daunting literary heritage, this humorous yet thoughtful introduction will serve as the perfect entrée.” —Publishers Weekly
