Watts Narrator: Jeremy Stockwell A guide that draws on Chinese Taoism to reexamine humanity's place in the natural world and the relation between body and spirit. Western thought and culture have coalesced around a series of constructed ideas-that human beings stand separate from a nature that must be controlled; that the mind is somehow superior to the body; that all sexuality entails a seduction-that in some way underlie our exploitation of the earth, our distrust of emotion, and our loneliness and reluctance to love. Here, Watts fundamentally challenges these assumptions, drawing on the precepts of Taoism to present an alternative vision of man and the universe-one in which the distinctions between self and other, spirit and matter give way to a more holistic way of seeing. ![]() Free Download National Geographic Ocean: A Global Odyssey (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0B2KQ83VM | 2022 | 14 hours and 55 minutes | M4B@128 kbps | 814 MB Author: Sylvia A.

On September 6, 1970, twelve-year-old Martha Hodes and her thirteen-year-old sister were flying unaccompanied back to New York City from Israel when their plane was hijacked by members of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and forced to land in the Jordan desert. Too young to understand the sheer gravity of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Martha coped by suppressing her fear and anxiety. Nearly a half-century later, her memories of those six days and nights as a hostage are hazy and scattered.Was it the passage of so much time, or that her family couldn't endure the full story, or had trauma made her repress such an intense life-and-death experience? ![]() Free Download My Friend Anne Frank: The Inspiring and Heartbreaking True Story of Best Friends Torn Apart and Reunited Against All Odds (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0BJ4M3Y44 | 2023 | 9 hours and 29 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 274 MB Author: Hannah Pick-Goslar, Dina Kraft Narrator: Alix Dunmore Both heartbreaking and life-affirming, the long-awaited memoir of Holocaust survivor Hannah Pick-Goslar, who shares an intimate look into her life and friendship with Anne Frank.

No two people are better positioned to tell this story than Gingrich and Gaylord. They were there, and they got it done. March to the Majority is not only about the past, but also about the challenges our nation faces today and offers principles for governing the American people. ![]() Free Download Map Addict: A Bestselling Tale of An Obssession Completely Updated (Audiobook) English | ASIN: B0B831Z8PD | 2023 | 13 hours and 5 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 376 MB Author: Mike Parker Narrator: Mike Parker 'My name is Mike and I am a map addict. There, it's said...' Maps not only show the world, they help it turn. On an average day, we will consult some form of map approximately a dozen times, often without even noticing: checking the A-Z, the road atlas or the Sat Nav, scanning the tube or bus map, a quick Google online or hours wasted flying over a virtual Earth, navigating a way around a shopping centre, watching the weather forecast, planning a walk or a trip, catching up on the news, booking a holiday or hotel. Maps pepper logos, advertisements, illustrations, books, web pages and newspaper and magazine articles: they are a cipher for every area of human existence. At a stroke, they convey precise information about topography, layout, history, politics and power. They are the unsung heroes of life: Map Addict sings their song. |
