Showing results for "Cross" in Philosophy

With His gentle hand He wounded my neck And caused all my senses to be suspended. Part poetic masterpiece, part mystic treatise, The Dark Night of the Soul by 16th century Carmelite monk, St. John of the Cross, addresses the feeling of being forgotten by the Presence of the Almighty that every Christian desirous of walking more closely with God must pass through in order to learn to walk by faith and not by sight.

In G. K. Chestertons captivating third novel, The Ball and the Cross, we are introduced to a unique blend of fantasy, farce, and theology. The story revolves around Evan MacIan, a tall, dark-haired, blue-eyed Scottish Highlander and devout Roman Catholic, and James Turnbull, a short, red-haired, gray-eyed Scottish Lowlander who is a naive atheist. Their paths collide dramatically when MacIan, outraged by a blasphemous poster in Turnbulls atheist journal office, smashes the window and challenges Turnbull to a duel. This unexpected confrontation sparks a series of comic misadventures as the two ...

Breakthroughs in genetics present us with a promise and a predicament. The promise is that we will soon be able to treat and prevent a host of debilitating diseases.

At the center of The Dark Night of the Soul (La noche oscura del alma) is a poem written by the 16th century Spanish poet and mystic St John of the Cross. Consisting of eight stanzas, each of five lines, the poem outlines the journey in pursuit of divine union, within which the only source of light comes from the soul. This recording in English includes the poem itself and St John's two accompanying treatises (1584-1585), essentially commentaries, which offer line-by-line explanations of the poem. Many modern listeners have found guidance and consolation in this work.

The Dark Night of the Soul explores not only the torments and elations of a soul’s spiritual journey, but also expounds on man’s relationship with God and the natural longing for union with the Creator. Known as a doctor of mysticism, St. John of the Cross uniquely and profoundly delves into the intimidating world of spirituality and Christianity. In this work there are ideas explored that bring light to the deep afflictions of the soul as well as the true exaltation and joy that occurs closer on the path to communion with God.

Set on the shore of Lake La Quinta, we explore the crossroads of spirituality and science to seek a deeper understanding of our existence—Who are we? Why are we here? Where are we going?
