Hypnotism is by no means a new art. True, it has been developed into a science in comparatively recent years. But the principles of thought control have been used for thousands of years in India, ancient Egypt, among the Persians, Chinese and in many other ancient lands. Miracles of healing by the spoken word and laying on of hands are recorded in many early writings.

Thought to have been lost for over 2000 years, "The Book of Enoch" resurfaced in 1773 and sparked an ongoing debate among historians and theologians on whether this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the great-grandfather of Noah.

Charles is professionally narrated by Christopher Glyn, and it aims to provide those curious to know the contents of this cryptic and mysterious book with an enjoyable way to do so.

René Descartes is often described as the first modern philosopher, but much of the content of his "Meditations on First Philosophy" can be found in the medieval period that had already existed for more than a thousand years. Does God exist? If so, what is his nature? Is the human soul immortal? How does it differ from the body? What role do sense experience and pure reason play in knowing? Descartes stands out from his predecessors because of the method he developed to treat these and other fundamental questions.

Die Berichte über Missbrauchsfälle in der katholischen Kirche reißen nicht ab.

Die Opfer treten kaum in der Öffentlichkeit auf, zu tief sitzen oftmals Schmerz und Scham. Jetzt bricht der ehemalige Ministrant Martin Schmitz das Schweigen. Auch er hat einen langen Leidensweg hinter sich und wurde jahrelang von einem pädokriminellen Priester missbraucht.

Mitra växer upp i Iran under ayatolla Khomeinis regim, men en demonstration i staden Qum blir startskottet för en revolution som kommer att förändra allt. Mitra går med i motståndsrörelsen MKO, Iranska folkets mujahedin, och får som sjuttonåring en ledarposition inom organisationen. I samband med en demonstration tillfångatas hon och hamnar för första gången i Hizbollahs fängelse. Hon utsätts för tortyr och lever med vetskapen om att varje dag kan bli hennes sista. När hon släpps från fängelset tvingas hon fly, risken för att tillfångatas på nytt är stor; att protestera mot Khomeini är att gå emot Gud.

The early "New Age" philosophy of "New Thought", which was wildly popular at the turn of the 20th century, owes much of its emphasis on the concept of "mind over matter" to the works of Thomas Troward. This audiobook contains the substance of a course of lectures given by the author in the Queen Street Hall, Edinburgh. Its purpose is to indicate the Natural Principles governing the relation between Mental Action and Material Conditions, and thus to afford the student an intelligible starting point for the practical study of the subject.

Rilassati ascoltando il suono di una gita in una carrozza trainata dai cavalli. Sogna ad occhi aperti il paesaggio idilliaco che ti scorre davanti, mentre chiudete gli occhi e vi godete il suono degli uccellini lungo la via.

Benvenuti a bordo! Questo paesaggio sonoro ti farà immergere in un viaggio in treno dal binario di partenza fino alla destinazione. Salite a bordo e mettetevi comodi nello scompartimento. Il ronzio ritmico del treno è perfetto per chiudere gli occhi e rilassarsi.

Sogna ad occhi aperti una piacevole sciata in un meraviglioso paesaggio invernale. La neve scricchiola sotto gli scarponi, gli sci tagliano ritmicamente la neve, mentre senti l'aria fredda sferzare le tue guance. In solitudine, tra i pini innevati, sembra che il resto del mondo stia ancora dormendo.

Chiudete gli occhi e immaginate di passeggiare in un pittoresco borgo italiano, ricco di storia, profumi e suoni senza tempo. Lasciate che la vostra voglia di esplorare il mondo si liberi, facendovi sentire il vero spirito delle vacanze.

Rilassati con i suoni della natura! Vieni a fare una gita in canoa. Pagaia dolcemente lungo il torrente, circondato dalla natura verdeggiante. Gli uccelli cinguettano sugli alberi e l'acqua schizza dolcemente mentre stai remando.

La pioggia batte ritmicamente sul tetto. I tuoni non si fanno attendere e i fulmini lampeggiano a intervalli. In casa siete al sicuro e al caldo, davanti a un caminetto scoppiettante.
