The Poetic Discourse in the Work of J.R. Jiménez

Ибероамериканские тетради October 17, 2024 M. S. Burak

This paper analyses the poetic discourse in the work of J.R. Jiménez. Certain extracts from the poem «Espacio» and several verses from the «Eternidades» collection are concerned. Despite the differences in form and style, both prove the Time-concept to be relevant in the author’s work and show affinity in key points. All of them pass over the every-day life concepts. Thus, the author remains...

Scientific Reports October 16, 2024 Andreas Krabbe, Pilleriin Sikka, Jussi Jylkkä 9 citations

Increased psychological flexibility (PF) may underlie the lasting positive effects of psychedelic experiences on mental well-being.

Journal of Noesantara Islamic Studies October 15, 2024 Yogi Fery Hidayat

The Philosophical Faith of Father Sergius Bulgakov

Toronto Journal of Theology October 1, 2024 N. Gonotskaya, Nikita Vladimirovich Garadzha

Abstract:The Article examines the world view evolution of Father Sergius Bulgakov; namely, the stage of his radical reorientation to the problems of philosophical idealism and religious metaphysics. That world view is shaped by a tension between his mystical spiritual experiences described in his diary and jos attempts to externalize them as Christian politics. He articulates the relationship...

Good and Evil

October 1, 2024 William Kingsland

The problem of Good and Evil—or, as it is more generally termed, the problem of Evil, as if Good were not just as much of a problem—is only a special aspect of the more general problem of duality , of the “pairs of opposites ” which the Mind constructs, and which the intellect obstinately refuses to overpass. It is part of the general problem of Reality and Appearance, or Being and Becoming, or...

God, Knowledge of

October 1, 2024 William Kingsland

The mystical teaching concerning knowledge of God is simply that God is unknown to or by any but Himself. It is linked up with the teachings of the Divine Nature of Man. Man can only know God as he himself becomes God. The lower personality, governed only by the rational mind or intellect, can neither know or legitimately postulate anything about God. This knowledge of God in virtue of man’s...

Can Consciousness Have Blind Spots? : A Renewed Defence of Sri Aurobindo's Opaque Cosmopsychism

Journal of Consciousness Studies October 1, 2024 S. Medhananda 2 citations

This article defends the cosmopsychist doctrine of the Indian philosopher-mystic Sri Aurobindo, arguing that it has distinct advantages over rival panpsychist positions. After tracing the dialectical trajectory of recent philosophical debates about panpsychism up to the present, I bring Aurobindo into dialogue with Miri Albahari, who has defended a form of panpsychist idealism based on the...
