    First published in nine volumes over the years from 1759 to 1767, The life and Opinions of Tristram Shandy, Gentleman is a, comic, bawdy, humorous, satirical novel.It purports to be the autobiography of Tristram Shandy beginning at his conception but, famously, Sterne's egoistic character digresses and side-tracks the listener with so many colorful observations of his family and cast of supporting characters that his birth doesn't take place until Vol 3.The printed work contains many whimsical, graphic jokes such as a page on which appears just a straight line, another a "squiggly" line. Chapters are missing (one chapter of 10 pages he says he tore out as irrelevant) or blank, but then referred to and told at a later stage. Some pages consist of just asterisks or dashes, all representative of some thought process or passage of time.Throughout the narrative he addresses his reader directly and there are many instances of him having imaginary conversations with the "Sir" or "Madam" he imagines his reader likely to be. Extremely experimental in its time, Tristram Shandy now appears avant-garde and is one of the most influential works of literature to be found.Schopenhauer described Tristram Shandy as arguably, one of the greatest novels ever written and Nietzsche described Sterne as the most liberated spirit of all time. ungekürzt.

    This book is an abbreviated selection from the original 1910 book, The Master as I Saw Him, written by Bhagini ("Sister") Nivedita.  Although there are now a number of newer publications of this classic (due to the fact it is now in the public domain), I thought it might be helpful to come out with an abbreviated edition, which focuses on the first quarter of the book, where it ends with the very pregnant and enlightening words of the author, wherein she writes, “Long, long ago, Sri Ramakrishna had told his disciples that the day would come when his beloved ‘Noren' would manifest his own great gift of bestowing knowledge with a touch. That evening at Almora, I proved the truth of his prophecy. For alone, in meditation, I found myself gazing deep into an Infinite Good, to the recognition of which no egoistic reasoning had led me. I learnt, too, on the physical plane, the simple everyday reality of the experience related in the Hindu books on religious psychology. And I understood, for the first time, that the greatest teachers may destroy in us a personal relation only in order to bestow the Impersonal Vision in its place.”  It is my hope that this short volume may serve as but an introductory glimpse into the life and work of one of the truly outstanding exponents of Indian philosophy and spirituality. ungekürzt.

    Punishment is a harm or deprivation, imposed by a legitimate authority, based on a legitimate conviction of wrongdoing. In assessing guilt, considerations of intention, action, and results are all relevant. Any understanding of punishment depends heavily on our interpretation of both authority and responsibility. Paternalism is one set of beliefs about who should have authority; it obviously has been applied within the family, and it has a highly controversial application in government. The authority of law and the state is a topic of philosophical interest extending at least back to Socrates. The way one understands the role and power of the state in turn depends on assumptions about human nature. The philosopher Thomas Hobbes emphasized the benefits of a "common power", based on the view that mankind is naturally warlike, acquisitive, and egoistic. By contrast, John Locke emphasized the benefits of liberty, based on the view that people are naturally free and equal, forming governments only for the purpose of protecting life and property. Criminal responsibility requires that a person be able to freely conform his conduct to law. An act is excused if the perpetrator did not act voluntarily (e.g., due to insanity); it is justified if there was good reason to voluntarily commit the act. Assigning criminal responsibility is one of the most difficult and immediate problems in any criminal justice system. Controversy continues today about corporal punishment, imprisonment, and capital punishment. Society questions if any of these methods offer retribution for the crime committed. ungekürzt.

    Questionable behaviors in humans have existed for as long as humans have existed. Behaviors such as selfishness, ruthlessness, unscrupulous behavior, and evil behavior can be traced in many cultures across the world. Some of the most prominent "dark traits" associated with humans are psychopathy, Machiavellianism, and narcissism. However, many other dark traits have emerged over the years, even though some of them lack theoretical integration.In theory, there are certain and very specific basic principles that characterize all dark traits, which provide a thorough and comprehensive frame that aids in understanding dark personality. Most dark traits tend to have a specific disposition through which dark traits manifest themselves. While dark traits are downright evident in narcissism and psychopathy, it can also be seen in other classes of dark personality such as greed, sadism, egoism, amorality, and spitefulness. In this case, instead of referring to a person as being sadist, egoistic, amoral, and narcissistic psychopath, it is easier to say that the person exhibits a dark personality.Having realized that you are a victim of dark psychology, what should you do about it? Cry and whine? Dealing with this kind of manipulation has got an array of approaches. It also depends on what kind of manipulation you are experiencing. Once you realize that you are experiencing dark psychology, one should seek treatment from a qualified therapist. This will help one experiencing this realize that the condition is not normal and help them clear the air on that assumption. Apart from that, one should keep boundaries which can be of great importance in mitigating the adverse effects of manipulation. Those directly facing dark psychology and find themselves always violent should always distant themselves from things that make them high tempered. This will be of great help in dealing with this abnormal situation. Manipulators always like keeping boundaries, a ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: John Stone.

    A personality of a person is shaped by experiences, environment, and inherited characteristics.But once the person behaves in an unusual way such as becoming aggressive, egoistic, and insensitive, then that person possibly has a personality disorder. For someone who is diagnosed with this illness, a lot of factors are considered to be the reasons contributing to such. This can also cause distress over a long period.In the 21st century, the most prevalent disorder case is Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NDP). This is one of the many mental illnesses that can destroy one’s life if not being controlled. Someone with NDP tends to project an attention-seeker attitude. This is common to the younger generation or what we mostly refer to as Millennials.Narcissistic people regard themselves as someone with dominating power. They usually disregard others. When they feel the urge to demean or insult people, they will not hesitate. They can even pose as the kind of people you never wish to interact with. They are manipulative in some ways, and often just showoff themselves to the many. If you know someone with this attitude, it is really frustrating to act nicely around them.However, even though they are annoying, we still do not know what made them act like that. According to some psychologists, people with Narcissistic Personality Disorder may have lived a miserable life, especially as a child. They have probably experienced neglection in the past. They might have never gotten the things they wanted during their childhood days.People with Narcissistic Personality Disorder requires immediate and thorough psychological aid because this can lead to suicide, depression, physical abuse, and drug abuse. However, confirmed NPD patients do not actively seek help themselves. This is for the reason that they strongly believe that nothing is wrong with them. Not until their disorder starts to impact their lives significantly. Even though these pe ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Christopher Shelby Slone.

    Nonviolent communication, or NVC, is a strong communication tool, but it goes much further than that. It's a way in the world to be, dream, and live. The aim is to encourage heartfelt connections between ourselves and others — connections that allow compassionate giving to meet the needs of all. This encourages us to give from the heart and others. It also allows us to communicate with our inner divinity and from moment to moment with what is alive in us.We might say that NVC is a language of compassion, but it is truly a language of life in which compassion naturally comes. The model shows us how we can communicate what's alive in us and see what's alive in others. When we know what's going on in us, we can look at what we can do to improve our life.Nonviolent Communication evolved from an intense interest in two issues that I had. First, I wanted to understand better what happens to humans which leads some of us to act violently and exploitably. And secondly, I wanted to understand better what kind of education fits our efforts to remain compassionate - which I think is our nature - even when others act violently or exploitably.The idea that has been around for many years suggests violence and abuse happens because people are innately evil, egoistic, or aggressive. But I've seen people who aren't like that; I've seen a lot of people who like to contribute to the well-being of each other. So, I wondered why some people seem to enjoy the pain of other people, while others are the opposite.I found the following three reasons to be very important in understanding why some of us react aggressively and some of us respond compassionately in similar situations:The language we've been taught to useWhy we got taught how to think and talkWe have learnt specific strategies to affect others and ourselves. In this book, you'll learn:How to communicate effectively and make ungekürzt.

    Your salespeople are your lifeblood. You may not like it, but that’s the way it is, and they are also a breed unto themselves. They don’t function like the rest of us, and aren’t we glad about that! They have to be tough, negotiating, conciliatory, patient, driven, results-oriented, and bloody minded. If they were not so, they wouldn’t get the results we need. But are you getting the best out of them? We tend to respond to our sales staff in one of two ways. We either pummel them with our goals and expectations without listening to their input, or we ignore them because we’re scared of them. Either way our business is what suffers as a result. And either way it’s not the team we want or need. Being immersed in all things business for many years, I have had the opportunity of getting to know salespeople very well, and these are some of my observations: They are, more often than not, motivated by cash and recognition rather than altruistic "family" values. They want cash, cash, cash, and it’s their egoistic emphasis is "me, me, me". They are more mercenary than missionary and don’t really care about the philosophies or underlying motives that drive a business. They know why they’re there, and they just get on with bringing in results. They thrive best when they have a solid product to sell, well-defined pricing, a clear quota to aim for, and recognizable, clear-cut competitors. If they think you don’t understand them, they will devise their own methods and approaches that usually end up servicing their needs above yours. None of these observations render salespeople bad or immoral or whatever – they simply define them as results-oriented and task driven, which are good things. In this module we evaluate the best ways in which you can elicit the most-profitable results from these amazing people. Understand them. Have them eating out of your business palm, and you’ll have a wonderfully successful business that has no bounds. Language: English. Narrator: John L Millar.
