The Prophet

Kahlil Gibran

Part of the bestselling Capstone Classics Series edited by Tom Butler-Bowdon, this collectible, hard-back edition of The Prophet provides an accessible and insightful introduction to this timeless spiritual work The Prophet is an inspirational book of 26 poetry fables written in English by Lebanese-American poet and writer Kahlil Gibran. One of the most translated books in history, Gibran’s famous work has been translated into over 100 different languages since its first publication in 1923. The book provides timeless spiritual wisdom on universally-shared aspects of life, such as giving, buying and selling, beauty and friendship, eating and drinking, crime and punishment and spirituality and religion. The book follows Almustafa, a man who has waited for twelve years for a ship to take him from the island of Orphalese back to his home. He has come to know the people on the island, who consider him a wise and insightful man. On the day Almustafa’s ship finally arrives, he feels a deep sadness. The local elders ask him not to leave. Almustafa speaks of his philosophy of life and the truths he has discovered to the gathered crowd. His words have an almost magical quality to them. As he prepares to board his ship, it becomes clear that Almustafa’s words do not refer to his journey home, but rather to the world he came from before he was born. The Prophet is a metaphor for the mystery of life and an exploration of the human condition.

Auf dem Weg zur Fülle des Seins

Georg P. Loczewski

In dem Büchlein «Auf dem Weg zur Fülle des Seins – Durch das NADA zum TODO» wird versucht auf kontemplative Weise mit Hilfe von anschaulichen Grafiken die christliche Lehre darzulegen, dass der Weg zu Gott für uns Menschen zwangsläufig nur über eine völlige Loslösung von allem Geschaffenen möglich ist.
Dies ist dadurch bedingt, dass Gott unendlich ist und zwischen IHM und uns keine Wesensähnlichkeit besteht, da der Abstand zwischen dem göttlichen SEIN und dem Sein aller geschaffenen Wesen unendlich ist. Das einzig entsprechende Mittel, die Vereinigung mit Gott zu erreichen, ist der Glaube, der losgelöst von allem Verhaftetsein an Geschaffenes den transzendenten Gott erreicht, ohne jedoch die Liebe zu Gottes Geschöpfen aufzugeben, da Gott alles liebt, was Er erschaffen hat.
