Buddhist Cosmology


Book Description

Disagreements concerning the nature and extent of the universe constitute a focus of theological debate which permeates buddhism at every level. While there have been numerous attempts to catalogue the details of the Buddhist cosmologies, none has attempted a general interpretation of their underlying intention. This work attempts to begin the process of interpreting the major phases of Buddhist Cosmological speculation by seeing in them various dramas of salvation tailored to the philosophical and theological predilections of their respective traditions. To a large extent, this interpretation relies on an examination of continuities between the Buddhist cosmologies and those of the hellenistic world as a whole. In the course of this study, two major cosmological traditions emerge; those which rely on metaphors of time and those which rely on metaphors of time and those which rely on metaphors of space. The former are associated with the Hinayana and the latter with the Mahayana forms of Buddhism. Each draws on images of motion and light to articulate its vision of the drama of salvation.

Valentinus’ Legacy and Polyphony of Voices


Book Description

This book challenges the popular use of ‘Valentinian’ to describe a Christian school of thought in the second century CE by analysing documents ascribed to ‘Valentinians’ by early Christian Apologists, and more recently by modern scholars after the discovery of codices near Nag Hammadi in Egypt. To this end, Ashwin-Siejkowski highlights the great diversity of views among Christian theologians associated with the label ‘Valentinian’, demonstrating their attachment to the Scriptures and Apostolic traditions as well as their dialogue with Graeco-Roman philosophies of their time. Among the various themes explored are ‘myth’ and its role in early Christian theology, the familiarity of the Gospel of Truth with Alexandrian exegetical tradition, Ptolemy’s didactic in his letter to Flora, the image of the Saviour in the Interpretation of Knowledge, reception of the Johannine motifs in Heracleon’s commentary and the Tripartite Tractate, salvation in the Excerpts from Theodotus, Christian identity in the Gospel of Philip, and reception of selected Johannine motifs in ‘Valentinian’ documents. Valentinus’ Legacy and Polyphony of Voices will be an invaluable and accessible resource to students, researchers, and scholars of Early Christian theologies, as well as trajectories of exegesis in New Testament sources and the emerging of different Christian identities based on various Christologies.




The Republic


Book Description

The Republic is a Socratic dialogue, written by Plato around 380 BCE, concerning the definition of justice, the order and character of the just city-state and the just man. The dramatic date of the dialogue has been much debated and though it must take place some time during the Peloponnesian War, "there would be jarring anachronisms if any of the candidate specific dates between 432 and 404 were assigned". It is Plato's best-known work and has proven to be one of the most intellectually and historically influential works of philosophy and political theory. In it, Socrates along with various Athenians and foreigners discuss the meaning of justice and examine whether or not the just man is happier than the unjust man by considering a series of different cities coming into existence "in speech", culminating in a city (Kallipolis) ruled by philosopher-kings; and by examining the nature of existing regimes. The participants also discuss the theory of forms, the immortality of the soul, and the roles of the philosopher and of poetry in society.

De-Fragmenting Modernity


Book Description

We live in a strangely fragmented lifeworld. On the one hand, abstract constructions of our own imagination--such as money, "mere" facts, and mathematical models--are treated by us as important objective facts. On the other hand, our understanding of the concrete realities of meaning and value in which our daily lives are actually embedded--love, significance, purpose, wonder--are treated as arbitrary and optional subjective beliefs. This is because, to us, only quantitative and instrumentally useful things are considered to be accessible to the domain of knowledge. Our lifeworld is designed to dis-integrate knowledge from belief, facts from meanings, immanence from transcendence, quality from quantity, and "mere" reality from the mystery of being. This book explores two questions: why should we, and how can we, reintegrate being, knowing, and believing?

God Said


Book Description

The concept of the Holy Trinity has always been an enigma. Now, through the perspective of the creative process, a formula that permeates throughout creation discovers how a person is created in the image of the Holy Trinity. Here is just a sample where a formula for creation has uncovered this truth: - The mathematical formula 1+1+1=3 - The mathematical formula 1x1x1=1 - The creative process: mental, physical, spiritual - Science and the 3 realms of existence - The 3 types of human knowledge and faith - The 3 parts of human existence and essence - The 3 parts to God's essence and existence - The 3 branches of government - The 3 ways parts to good and evil - The 3 parts to change and time - The 3 contents in the Ark of the Covenant - The 3 requirements for divine authority - Etc., etc., etc. Benjamin Ciaccio was born and raised in a large Catholic Irish/Italian family in Omaha, Nebraska. Ben Jr. is a self-educated person whose father challenged him to discover the secret truths in life. His diversity of interests ranged from history, geography, science and technology to the current news. While his mother held the belief that there are two things you do not talk about in public, namely religion and politics, Ben's father felt that these two issues are what influences people most in life and should have a dialogue in public affairs. For years Benjamin was not satisfied with analogies and sought a definitive answer as to how man is created in God's image. His intrigue with life's mysteries and wonders has developed throughout the years. It is his perspective that there are truths waiting to be realized and old truths that will never change.
