Death of the Ego


Book Description

The ego is the cause of all our mental and emotional suffering as well as all the strife and wars in the world. By ego we mean the fundamental thought of an "I." This I-thought has taken up residence in our minds and it is not our true self - it is an imposter. It is the feeling of separation from God, Nature and others. It is the sense of "I" and "mine." Thus, it is our egoistic minds that obscure the truth of our existence which is this: we are all beings if infinite bliss, love and joy! Happiness is our primal nature! There can be no Self-realization, God-realization, merging in the Divine, coming to Jesus or dissolving into the ocean of nirvana without abandoning that great thief and liar the ego. Most of us imagine our egos to be our friend but it is really our greatest enemy.This book explores the nature of the ego, its origins and how we might at last rid ourselves of this torment. Most of us will not be rid of the great liar immediately but every effort to move in that direction will remove some of our suffering. Even a little reduction in the illusions and delusions of our egos will give us great benefit and a deeper more satisfying peace, love and joy. The spiritual path is not about getting, acquiring or gaining anything. It is 100% about removing something and that something is the ego. Once removed, the truth of our magnificent luminous being is revealed. We will realize the ego had been no more than a phantom - an illusion - and we are free, liberated, saved and eternally reunited with the Divine. We are free to swim in the ocean of bliss!

Transforming Depression


Book Description

In this groundbreaking book, David H. Rosen, M.D., offers depressed individuals, their families, and therapists a lifesaving course in healing the soul through creativity. This is a book about transforming depression and its powerful pull toward suicide into a meaningful alternative.In Transforming Depression, Dr. Rosen applies Carl Jung's method of active imagination to treating depressed and suicidal individuals. Having dealt with depression in his own life and the suicides of loved ones, Dr. Rosen shows that when people learn to confront the rich images and symbols that emerge from their struggles, they can turn their despair into a fountain of creative energy. He details the paths of four patients whose work in painting, pottery, and dance -- in conjunction with psychotherapy -- led them from depression to a more meaningful life. Their dramatic paintings illustrate the text. Part One presents an overview of the biological, psychological, sociological, and spiritual factors involved in the diagnosis of depression. Part Two provides a new therapeutic approach to treating depression, focusing on the symbolic death and rebirth of the ego (ego-cide) as an alternative to suicide. Part Three presents in-depth case studies from Dr. Rosen's practice. Part Four discusses how we can recognize crisis points and how creativity can transform depression. The author pays particular attention to the problem of teen suicide.

Pipe Dreams


Book Description

After the shocking collapse of Enron in fall, 2001 came an equally shocking series of disclosures about how America's seventh-largest company had destroyed itself. There were unethical deals, offshore accounts, and accounting irregularities. There were Wall Street analysts who seemed to have been asleep on the job. There were the lies top executives told so that they could line their own pockets while workers and shareholders lost billions. But after all these disclosures, the question remains: Why? Why did a thriving, innovative company with rock-solid cash flow and reliable earnings suddenly flame out in a maelstrom of corruption, fraud and skulduggery? The answer, Texas business journalist Robert Bryce reveals in this incisive and entertaining book, is that bad business practices begin with human beings. Pipe Dreams traces Enron's astounding transformation from a small regional gas pipeline company into an energy Goliath...and then tracks step-by-step, business decision by business decision, extra-marital affair by extra-marital affair, how, when and why the culture of Enron began to go rotten, and who was responsible. The story of Enron's fall isn't just a story about accounting procedures; it's a story about people. Bryce tells that story with all the personality, passion, humor, and inside dope you'd hope for, and the result is an un-putdownable read in the tradition of Barbarians at the Gate and The Predators' Ball.
