Native Knowledge: The Ecological Way of Elemental Harmony is a "Book of Life" for the living. It is a "Book of Death" for the dying. It is a "Book of Union" for uniting the two as the key to vitalizing our direct experience of the Tree of Life itself. William Braham has written a comprehensive manifesto for envisioning the coalescent growth of the seeds and fruits for today's Ancient Now Age. Here, he establishes the structural framework for this current era with firm roots grounded in a primordial origin story of the "Great Perfection of the Wheel of Time." William sees our way through these momentous times in eco-logical terms. We are the creative union of elemental forces evolving towards the harmony of our true nature. An 'ecosystem of the organic mind' is the lens he uses to focus upon the actual source-material of what informs our experiences. This primal design clarifies how we conceive, birth, and live our everyday lives as active agents engineering our internal and external environments. Life introduces itself to all of us as the universal ground of everything each of us seeks to know. As such, the reader is invited to look into how Native Knowledge weaves its connective thread-work by ?eshing out the rousing pulse of our desire for everything we bring to life and the stories we tell. This is both deeply personal and vastly global in scope. And so Native Knowledge: The Ecological Way of Elemental Harmony introduces the reality of our individuality in terms of pristine consciousness. Here, we encounter the original weaver of the "Sacred Golden Thread" of life's continuity. This is the real meaning of the oft-misrepresented word 'tantra.' Native Knowledge: The Ecological Way of Elemental Harmony is a call to action. Those moving towards activating an elementally embodied reason for being that is grounded in a consilient system of holarchy will find an architectural blueprint. Today's culture creators who seek direct access to that field will find open source-code for stoking a fire that reveals an indwelling clear light where the mysteries of organic mind dwell nakedly. …

    Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. "The way Guelzo weaves faith, liberty, reason, and historical complexity into a coherent and accessible story creates a rich and thoughtful exploration of Western civilization that feels both rigorous and deeply human." Jared Diamond, author of Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human SocietiesA compelling, resource-rich history of the modern Westfrom the Renaissance to the presentdesigned for students and lifelong learners alike, and grounded in the enduring ideals of liberty, faith, and reason. This is Volume II of a two-part series tracing the story of Western civilization from antiquity to the modern age.The Western Tradition from 1500 to the PresentWith the Renaissance in Europe, the Western world experienced a long series of cataclysmic events that still reverberate in modern society. Written by Allan C. Guelzo, The Golden Thread, Volume II: The Modern and Contemporary West begins in 1500, when the Protestant Reformation brought an end of the Roman Catholic Church's dominance over European states. It then turns to the rise of imperial powers that swiftly circled the globe, and to the explosion of intellectual, economic, and technological advancements sparked by the Enlightenment. These were moments of flourishing in Western civilization, but also moments of uncertainty, as they portended the violent political upheavals that shook continental Europe and the Americas during the American, French and Bolivarian Revolutions as well as the Napoleonic Wars. The Industrial Revolution, the Romantic revolt against the Enlightenment, and a second wave of scientific advancement in the nineteenth century challenged any attempt to restore the classical unity of the West. A radically redrawn world emerged from these developments, one that was ill-prepared for the colossal physical and moral shocks of the First and Second World Wars.In its closing chapters, Guelzo explores how Western civilization has, in our own time, been simultaneously challenged by secular totalitarianism and yet remained remarkably resilient laying the foundations for material prosperity around the globe. Through the paradoxes of the twentieth century, The Golden Thread engages with the most significant questions facing the West today.The Golden Thread is a two-volume history of the Western tradition. Volume I is authored by James Hankins; Volume II, covering the modern and contemporary West, is authored by Allen C. Guelzo.The Golden Thread series features:The Vision of Two AuthorsWritten by two of the most distinguished historians of our time.The Golden Thread speaks in coherent, singular voices. Each volume is authored by an eminent individual writing in narrative form and interpretive tone, and animated by the conviction that knowledge across disciplines is best pursued through stories that are rich in insight, humanity, and meaning.A Cultural InheritanceNearly 1000 curated imagessculptures, paintings, and artifactsfrom the vaults of the Wests finest cultural institutions.Readers are not merely told what happened, but shown what was createdpage after page alive with the rich architecture, sculpture, music, and painting that gave visible form to the Wests most enduring aspirations.Living Voices from the Distant PastFeatures close to 200 foundational primary source texts drawn from every era.Woven through the chapters are the voices that once commanded nations, composed poems and hymns, and drafted creeds.
