Showing results for "The Prophet" in Philosophy

On the face of it, a simple book of 26 poem fables sharing one man’s wisdom. But The Prophet is so much more than that. It has inspired people from John F Kennedy to The Beatles and became the '60s Bible of counterculture – all because of the timeless truths it shared. Each poem takes a different theme – pleasure, beauty, freedom, joy and sorrow – as the fictional Al Mustapha shares his thoughts and experiences as he prepares to travel back to his island home.

In My Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary reader. His unique approach - thematic rather than verse by verse - makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible. In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships.

Twelve years - that's how long the prophet Almustafa has been waiting for the ship that is to take him back home. The people of the City of Orphalese ask him to tell them about his insights regarding human life: work, love, death, for example. In the ensuing 26 speeches, he does just that. Ever since its first publication in 1923, millions of copies of "The Prophet" were sold, making it one of the best sellers in spiritual literature.

Lautstark schwingen sich selbsternannte Tribunen des Volkes, esoterische "Querdenker" und autoritäre Demagogen zu Verteidigern der demokratischen Ordnung auf, deren Werte sie eigentlich ablehnen. Um Gefolgschaft zu organisieren, schüren sie Ängste vor drohendem Chaos und spinnen Verschwörungstheorien über anonyme Mächte, die das Schicksal der Nation bestimmen. Vorschläge zur Lösung komplexer gesellschaftlicher Probleme sind ihre Sache nicht.

Almustafá, el bien amado, el elegido, luz de su día, abrazo de su noche, espero doce años en Orfalese que regresara el barco que lo regresara a su isla, y esto sucedió en el mes de las cosechas, lo que llenó de alegría su corazón, que pronto se entristeció porque pensó: En esta ciudad pasé muchos días de dolor y largas noches de soledad, ¿y quién puede dejar sin pena su dolor y su soledad? Mucho de mí quedó en estas calles, no dejo una túnica sino mi propia piel, no dejo mi hambre y mi sed sino mi propio corazón.

Ocho años antes de su muerte un profeta abandona el pueblo donde ha vivido y antes de irse la gente le pide que hable de ciertos temas, cada uno de los cuales forma un capítulo del libro.
