The concept of the archetype is crucial to Jung's radical interpretation of the human mind. Jung believed that every person partakes of a universal or collective unconscious that persists through generations. The origins of the concept can be traced to his very first publication in 1902 and it remained central to his thought throughout his life. As well as explaining the theoretical background behind the idea, in Four Archetypes Jung describes the four archetypes that he considers fundamental to the psychological make-up of every individual: mother, rebirth, spirit and trickster. Exploring their role in myth, fairytale and *ure, Jung engages the reader in discoveries that challenge and enlighten the ways we perceive ourselves and others.
Here is a personal tribute to “the father of modern yoga” SriTirumalai Krishnamacharya (1888–1989), written by one of hislongtime disciples. Krishnamacharya was a renowned Indian yogamaster, Ayurvedic healer, and scholar who modernized yoga practiceand whose students—including B. K. S. Iyengar, K. Pattabhi Jois, T.K. V. Desikachar, and Indra Devi—dramatically popularized yoga inthe West. In this book, the author, A. G. Mohan, a well-respected yogateacher and yoga therapist, draws on his own memories andKrishnamacharya’s diaries and recorded material, to present afascinating view of the man and his teachings, and Mohan's own warmand inspiring relationship with the master. This portrait of thegreat teacher will be a compelling and informative read for yogateachers and students who truly want to understand the source oftheir tradition and practice.
This book examines the theology and ethics of land use,especially the practices of modern industrialized agriculture, inlight of critical biblical exegesis. Nine interrelated essaysexplore the biblical writers' pervasive concern for the care ofarable land against the background of the geography, socialstructures, and religious thought of ancient Israel. This approachconsistently brings out neglected aspects of texts, both poetry andprose, that are central to Jewish and Christian traditions. Ratherthan seeking solutions from the past, Davis creates a conversationbetween ancient texts and contemporary agrarian writers; thus sheprovides a fresh perspective from which to view the destructivepractices and assumptions that now dominate the global foodeconomy. The biblical exegesis is wide-ranging and sophisticated;the language is literate and accessible to a broad audience.
