Sadhana, The Realisation of Life, version 2 Rabindranath Tagore A collection of essays on the Hindu/Buddhist view of humankind's place in the universe. As the author says in his introduction: "in these papers, it may be hoped, western readers will have an opportunity of coming into touch with the ancient spirit of India as revealed in our sacred texts and manifested in the life of to-day."Most of the essays were given as lectures before Harvard University in 1916 or before. (Summary by Peter Yearsley) Adaptation by Mack Reynolds (1917 - 1983) LibriVox In 1960 when this was published, the Cold War was at its height. Communism and Free Enterprise (Democracy) were locked in a ferocious struggle to prove that their political ideology was the best form of government for human kind. No holds were barred in this fight; propaganda was poured forth by both sides in a constant push to be seen as better, more progressive, more productive. Nuclear war was a constant threat. I know, I lived through that time. Thankfully the world came through that stressful time without a hot war but the question was not really settled: which is the better system? This story explores that question. "Hardly had man solved his basic problems on the planet of his origin than he began to fumble into space. Barely a century had elapsed in the exploration of the Solar System than he began to grope for the stars. And suddenly, with an all but religious zeal, mankind conceived its fantasy dream of populating the galaxy." summary by Phil chenevert and the author ReThiNkEd By Muchira Newton Muchira My name is Muchira .I'm pretty sure I told you what this podcast is all about on the trailer .You know,just incase you weren't paying attention or something. I'm just another being trapped in this humanoid form trying to demystify everything. Destroy this Temple and I will raise it again in three days. – The Old Adam Lives!
