How to Live and Die


In this authoritative account of one of the most important practices in Tibetan Buddhism, Lama Zopa shows us how facing the reality of death and impermanence can transform and enrich our life.What death is, how we die, what minds we need at death and what happens after death—only by knowing about death and rebirth can we actually fully understand what life is and so learn how to live fully. —Lama Zopa Rinpoche There is arguably no truth more foundational to Buddhism than this: everything is impermanent. We can see this in the world all around us; old systems break down, relationships change. Death comes for those we love and, inevitably, for us. In this book, the late, beloved teacher Lama Zopa Rinpoche walks us through the traditional, revelatory practices of meditating on the fact of impermanence and even—especially—on death itself. Rather than shy away from this reality, we look straight at it, and thus we learn not only how to not fear death, but how to live.

O podstatných veciach


Potrebujeme vo svojej osobnej modlitbe nájsť spôsob, ktorý je len náš, v ktorom nachádzame život, útechu, povzbudenie. Toto treba zušľachťovať, nie splašiť sa a v modlitbe chcieť iba niečo vyriešiť. Treba najprv hľadať zakorenenie v Bohu. Potom môžeme byť Božími služobníkmi, modliť sa za druhých. Potom si môžeme uvedomiť, aká autorita viery je v tom, kým sme v Kristovi,"píše v knižke, ktorú držíte v rukách, kňaz Dušan Lukáč. Pútavým spôsobom rozpráva o podstatných veciach v živote kresťana a o tom, ako si vytvoriť priestor, aby naša viera rástla.

Kežmarok v zápase storočí - II. diel


Zápas o slobodu, česť i holý život pokračuje. Na tróne sa postupne striedajú panovníci, ktorí ovládajú hrad i mesto. Hrdosť a práva jeho obyvateľov však ovládnuť nedokážu. Ľudia horko-ťažko vzdorujú vladárskym manierom, porušené sľuby ich oberajú o vízie na lepšiu budúcnosť. Postupne sa dostávajú do rúk muža s pochybnou minulosťou, ktorý sa nemieni Kežmarku len-tak vzdať. Akoby nebolo dosť tých vojen, mesto zasiahne ďalšia s neďalekou Levočou. Vo víre nenávisti a rinčiacich zbraní sa zrodí zakázaná láska mladých ľudí zo znepriatelených táborov. Prinesú títo zaľúbenci zmierenie medzi rozvášnené davy? Podarí sa mešťanom ubrániť ich milované mesto? Druhý diel beletrizovaných dejín Kežmarku od spisovateľky a historičky Nory Baráthovej opisuje neľahké osudy ľudí v 16. storočí. Autorka neprináša vymyslené príbehy alebo literatúru faktu, ale nový typ literatúry – beletrizované dejiny na základe skutočných príbehov, niekedy až neuveriteľných, ale pravdivých.

Waves and Stones


A new exploration of our conception of reality, by one of the world's most influential philosophers How do we understand the world and our place in it? Do our lives consist of a small number of dramatic turning points, or is there nothing but a series of gradual changes from infancy to old age? Are political elections genuinely transformational, or merely arbitrary points along a shifting cultural timeline? And in physics, how can the continuities of general relativity coexist with the discontinuities of quantum theory? In Waves and Stones, Graham Harman shows that this paradoxical interaction - the question of whether reality is made up of sudden jumps, or is laid out along a gentle gradient with no clear divisions between the various things in the world - permeates every area of human life. What's more, this paradox is as old as human thought itself. In exploring how the continuous and discrete relate to each other, he takes us on a kaleidoscopic journey from the philosophers of ancient Greece, through the writings of the great Arab historian Ibn Khaldun, through architectural and evolutionary theory, the compatibility of religion with science, and the wave-particle duality of matter. To explore the relationship between the continuous and the discrete, Harman shows, is to consider the very fabric of reality. With this dazzling new book, he proposes a new way of thinking about this ancient problem, with profound implications for our understanding of ourselves and the bewilderingly complex world in which we live.

The Devil Takes Bitcoin


The wild, true story of cyber-era commerce, crime, cold-hard cash, and one of the greatest heists in history. Even in hell, Bitcoin talks. This modern take on an old Japanese saying still holds true. Cryptocurrency was supposed to do for money what the internet did for information, but it didn't work out that way. Its virtual existence unleashed real-world chaos - especially in the homeland of its mysterious creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. Tokyo was the centre of the world's largest bitcoin exchange, Mt. Gox, until that company collapsed with nearly half a billion dollars' worth of bitcoin gone missing. It might be the greatest heist in history. If it was a heist. So what really happened? Here's the true story of the humble-to-hot commodity, from the former geek website that launched the boom to an inside world of absent-minded CEOs, hucksters, hackers, cybercrooks, drug dealers, corrupt federal agents, evangelical libertarians, and clueless techies. You'll discover Bitcoin's connection to the infamous Silk Road, learn why hell has nothing on Japan's criminal justice system, and get the lowdown on the high cost of betting with the Devil's dollars. All of this for less than the price of a single bitcoin.
