Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia II - Enlarger - Exposing an image
Photographic paper is placed into a special holder, called an easel, designed to hold the paper perfectly flat. Some easels are designed with adjustable overlapping flat steel "blades" to crop the image on the paper to the desired size while keeping an unexposed white border about the image. Larger sheets of paper are sometimes placed directly on the table or enlarger base, and held down flat with metal strips. As the image size is changed it is also necessary to change the focus of the lens, unless the enlarger is equipped with a mec ...

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Any Fool Can Criticize, and Most Fools Do

Many of us almost daily stab the ones we love. We use invisible knives that do not draw blood. The weapon of choice is CRITICISM. The harm we do is just as vile as that produced by a real knife. Our criticism tears down others' self-esteem. They feel unloved and experience self-doubt. Before their wounds have time to heal, we stab them again and again in the same place. How can we be so cruel? Perhaps we are deceived because our weapon and the victim's wounds are invisible. Why are we so vicious? Because of our own insecurities. How can we improve?

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Spirituality as the Basis for Business Leadership  

What would you think if a senior vice-president from a multinational telecom firm said to you: Spirituality is very important to me as a person. I believe in God strongly. If ever there's a time for spiritual leadership, it's now. You must connect with a person's soul, at the deepest core. It can sometimes be lonely but you also feel happy and grounded inside. You also embrace your own humanness and imperfections and it keeps you humble as a leader and yet still strong.

 

She, and other executives like her, have helped us realise that spirituality is an emerging basis for highly successful business leadership. While these words are an inspiration to many, they can also evoke scepticism, doubt, and criticism.

 

To put these reactions into perspective, we've found that over the last 100 years, four distinct contexts of leadership have emerged in business. Each context represents a fundamental change in how we view the nature of business leadership and will therefore shape the perspectives and reactions of its leaders.

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Spiritual Values Are Human Values  

In February of 2000, we began writing an in-depth programme for working people which explores five human values that are found across all spiritual traditions: Truth, righteousness, love, peace and non-violence. The title is Human Values in the Workplace: Making Spirituality the Inner Context for Your Work.  [1]  

 

We were inspired to write this programme because our collective business experience showed us that these five human values were the fundamental roots of a healthy, vibrant, viable organisation - and of healthy, vibrant, viable individuals.

Spiritual Growth: Return to Godhead

Spiritual development is a systematic, methodic process that needs to be learnt and practised like any other skill. But very few understand spiritual growth as being systematic or methodic.

 

Most people randomly pick up books and practices without understanding their significance and place in the overall process. Consequently they remain where they are - or they could end up harming themselves.

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Is Your Conscience Showing?  

One day a devotee asked his spiritual teacher what to do in a situation he was facing. His teacher gave him very specific directions. The ardent devotee paused for a moment and then said softly, "But Swamiji, I can't do that as it would go against my conscience." The teacher smiled and replied, "Good. Follow your conscience."

 

On hearing this story we were struck with wonder. We began to ask, "What is this conscience that holds so much power within us? What might be possible if we were to follow our conscience at work?"

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Uses of Spirituality At the Workplace  

Does the recent interest exhibited in non-fiction titles such as The Soul of Business, A Spiritual Audit of Corporate America, The Stirring of Soul in the Workplace, The Three-Minute Meditation etc in the US point to the possible evolution of the "enlightened corporate sector"?

 

Do Indian managers, born in a land that has offered "yoga and meditation" to the world corporate sector (to overcome stress), have the "first-mover advantage"? These are the questions that should interest "enlightened" managers in "progressive" Indian corporations.

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Spirituality

Spirituality is, in a narrow sense, a concern with matters of the spirit, however that may be defined; but it is also a wide term with many available readings.

It may be an expression for life perceived as higher, more complex or more integrated with one's worldview, as contrasted with the merely sensual. Spirituality - The spiritual and the religious. An important distinction needs to be made between s ...

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Criticisms of sexual behavior

Criticism and regulation of sexuality has historically been one of the major aspects of human society. Criticisms of sexual behavior have addressed human sexuality in general as well as its individual practices. Because sexuality is a fundamental aspect of human identity, every criticism of sexuality fails one or more logical tests, and can never rise to the level of a scientific thesis. Nevertheless, it is educational to examine each criticism as well as its flaws. Criticisms of sexual behavior - General criticisms. ...

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Criticism of Mormonism

Criticism of Mormonism is the criticism of the Latter Day Saint movement, especially of the largest and most prominent sect, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints ("LDS Church"). In their early years, Mormons encountered frequent conflict, which forced them to move westward, eventually settling in Utah.

Many Christians criticize Mormon doct ...

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Criticality accident

A criticality accident (also sometimes referred to as an "excursion" or "power excursion") occurs when a nuclear chain reaction is accidentally allowed to occur in fissile material, such as enriched uranium or plutonium. This releases neutron radiation which is highly dangerous to surrounding personnel and which causes induced radioactivity in the surroundings. When such incidents occur outside reactor cores and test facilities where fission is intended to occur, they pose a high risk both of injury or death to su ...

Prem Rawat (also called Maharaji and formerly known as Guru Maharaj Ji; see main article: Prem Rawat), although an object of inspiration for his students, has attracted controversy and criticism since he started delivering his teachings in the 1960s.

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Anatomy of Criticism

Northrop Frye's Anatomy of Criticism: Four Essays (Princeton University Press, 1957) attempts to formulate an overall view of the scope, theory, principles, and techniques of literary criticism derived exclusively from literature. Frye consciously omits all specific and practical criticism, instead offering classically-inspired theories of modes, symbols, myths and genres, in what he termed "an interconnected group of suggestions," which informed a work that was highly influential in the decades before deconst ...

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Spiritual possession

Spiritual possession is a concept of many religions and tales, where it is believed that a demon, or disincarnate being, may take temporary control of a human body, resulting in noticeable changes in behaviour. The term demonic possession is used when the spirit is malignant (a demon), whereas incorporation or channelling may be used in the case of supposed benign spirits.

Spiritualism - Critics and Exposers: Encyclopedia - Critical realism

In the philosophy of perception, critical realism is the theory that some of our sense-data (for example, those of primary qualities) can and do accurately represent external objects, properties, and events, while other of our sense-data (for example, those of secondary qualities and perceptual illusions) do not accurately represent any external objects, properties, and events. In short, critical realism refers to any position that maintains that there exists an objectively knowable, mind-independent reality, whil ...
