The Ancient Greek aphorism "Know thyself", was inscribed in the pronaos of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi - according to the Greek periegetic writer Pausanias. The aphorism has been attributed to at least six ancient Greek sages: Chilon of Sparta, Heraclitus, Pythagoras, Socrates, Solon of Athens, Thales of Miletus. Other sources attribute it to Phemonoe, a mythical Greek poetess. In a discussion of moderation and self-awareness, the Roman poet Juvenal quotes the phrase in Greek and states that the precept descended de caelo. The authenticity of all such attributions has been doubted; according to one pair of modern scholars, "The actual authorship of the three maxims set up on the Delphian temple may be left uncertain. Most likely they...

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! In Mormonism, Kolob is a star or planet mentioned in the Book of Abraham as the one nearest to the throne or residence of God. Mention of a celestial body by that name is found in the Book of Abraham, which is canonized by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Mormon fundamentalist organizations, the Restoration Church of Jesus Christ, and other Brighamite Latter Day Saint denominations. While the Book of Abraham refers to Kolob as a "star", it also refers to planets as stars, and therefore, some Mormon commentators consider Kolob to be a planet.

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Korean Martyrs were the victims of religious persecution against the Catholic Church during the 19th century in Korea. At least 8,000 adherents to the faith were known to have been killed during this persecution, 103 of whom were canonized en masse in 1984. Politically, the persecutions should be seen in the context of Colonialism and the increasing penetration of European powers into East Asian affairs. The vast majority of the martyrs were simple lay people, including men and women, married and single, old and young. 79 martyrs of Korea were beatified in 1925 and 24 more were beatified in 1968 and the...

Korean shamanism encompasses a variety of indigenous beliefs and practices that have been influenced by Buddhism and Taoism. In contemporary Korea, shamanism is known as muism and a shaman is known as a mudang. The role of the mudang, usually a woman, is to act as intercessors between a god or gods and human beings. Women are enlisted by those who want the help of the spirit world. Shamans hold gut, or services, in order to gain good fortune for clients, cure illnesses by exorcising lost spirits that cling to people, or propitiate local or village gods. Such services are also held to guide the spirit of a deceased person to heaven. Koreans, like other East Asians, have traditionally been eclectic rather than exclusive in their religious...

Korean mythology consists of national legends and folk-tales which come from all over the Korean Peninsula. The original religion of Korea was a form of the Eurasian shamanism and the totemism of Far East Asia, specifically of the nomadic peoples of present-day Manchuria. These were strongly colored by the later importations of Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism from China. During the early ages, when Buddhism was on the rise, Korean shamanism was widely discredited in an attempt to establish Buddhism as the state religion. In later years both Korean Buddhism and shamanism were heavily purged, almost to the point of being lost from the consciousness of the general population. After the Korean War in 1953, shamans came to be seen less as...

This book presents a history of a spiritual consciousness raising church camp and addresses the role of interpersonal communication in such settings. The lead part of the title "Kum Ba Yah, A Song in the Air" is conveyed to represent two meanings. "Kum Ba Yah" is an African spiritual song, sung at many church camp settings, in that it calls to God with the request that he "come by here" so that the camp participants can feel his presence. "A Song in the Air" is stressed, with this particular group, in that the group meets one week each year but, otherwise, there is little tangible evidence that the group exists. The group comes together once a year, has a meaningful camp program for one week and then dissipates. Camp participants depart...
