About this listen
Las lecciones de brujería que aborda Carlos Castaneda conllevan sus postulados a la conclusión de que los misterios del conocimiento secreto se disipan en el acto mismo de cobrar concreción definitiva. Puede advertirse el paralelismo entre la iniciación guerrera que el autor ha cursado y la disciplina del Zen, en estos tres capítulos: "Un testigo de actos de poder", "El tonal y el nagual" y "La explicación de los brujos".

En el tercer libro sobre su iniciación como "hombre de conocimiento", Carlos Castaneda desanda camino hasta los primeros tratos con su maestro, el brujo yaqui don Juan, y añade al recuento de prodigios las arduas labores de disciplina física y mental que desde un principio lo preparaban para un acto decisivo de poder. La historia se cierra con el relato del viaje al que alude el título, intimación de la soledad y la áspera belleza de tal vida.

La realidad tal y como la percibimos está conformada, desde el punto de vista de la física cuántica, por una red compleja mejor conocida como lattice, pero para Jacobo Grinberg esta es resultado, a su vez, de la percepción y la actividad neuronal de cada individuo. En este libro, resultado de 15 años de investigación, el doctor Grinberg responde a estas y otras interrogantes, explora más allá de los límites del cerebro humano y propone un nuevo paradigma para la ciencia que se antoja tan fascinante como revolucionario.

Los protagonistas de la resistencia, de la república armada, fueron una generación de ciudadanos endiabladamente inteligentes, agudos, esforzados, laboriosos; personajes terriblemente celosos de su independencia y espíritu crítico, honestos hasta la absoluta pobreza. Los liberales puros, los llamados rojos. Una década de exhaustiva investigación culmina en esta obra de tres tomos en la que Paco Ignacio Taibo II consigue retratar las simpatías y enemistades, los errores y las genialidades de uno de los periodos más decisivos y fundacionales de nuestra historia nacional.

Al paso de los siglos, la humanidad ha levantado una barrera en torno a la idea de maestría. La ha llamado “genio” y la ha creído inaccesible. La ha visto como resultado de privilegios sociales, del talento innato de cada individuo o de la alineación correcta de las estrellas. Pero esa barrera es imaginaria. Nuestro cerebro es producto de seis millones de años de desarrollo, y gracias a él somos capaces de desatar el poder latente en nuestro interior.

"Desconcertante, lista a inquietar a la crítica, está ya en los escaparates la primera novela de Juan Rulfo, Pedro Páramo, que transcurre en una serie de transposiciones oníricas, ahondando más allá de la muerte de sus personajes, que uno no sabe en qué momento son sueño, vida, fábula, verdad, pero a los que se les oye la voz al través de la perspicacia despiadada y certera de tan sin duda extraordinario escritor". Con estas palabras iniciaba Edmundo Valdés la primera reseña de Pedro Páramo, aparecida el 30 de marzo de 1955 y conservada por Juan Rulfo entre sus papeles.

Aquí se encuentran algunos conceptos precisos y lúcidos que el genio del doctor Hawkins ha producido en torno a temas clave del camino espiritual, como: ¿qué es el ego?, la naturaleza de la mente, la observación y la meditación, la subjetividad, la devoción... El doctor Hawkins pasó muchos años madurando su realización y por eso es capaz de ofrecernos una síntesis sobre estos temas que no tiene igual entre los autores occidentales. Es evidente que habla desde la experiencia y desde un profundo trabajo de reflexión.

Christmas is the single biggest annual event on the planet, a time for merry-making, over-indulgence, peace, goodwill, and the occasional family row. It’s as comfortable and familiar as a pair of old shoes and yet still glittery and exciting. But what do you really know about it? It’s stuffed full of traditions and rituals that most of us have been observing all our lives without having the slightest idea of where they come from.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Experience a bold take on this classic autobiography as it’s performed by Oscar-nominated Laurence Fishburne. In this searing classic autobiography, originally published in 1965, Malcolm X, the Muslim leader, firebrand, and Black empowerment activist, tells the extraordinary story of his life and the growth of the Human Rights movement. His fascinating perspective on the lies and limitations of the American dream and the inherent racism in a society that denies its non-White citizens the opportunity to dream, gives extraordinary insight into the most urgent issues of our own time.
