(September 1, 1835 – November 15, 1907) was a Polish Discalced Carmelite friar born as Jozef Kalinowski inside the Russian partition of Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, in the city of Vilnius.

Rabbi Shimon ben Lakish of Tiberias (A.D. 230-270), asserted that all the specific names for the angels were brought back by the Jews from Babylon, and modern commentators would tend to agree. The name of the angel Raphael appears only in the Deuterocanonical Book of Tobit. The Book of Tobit is considered canonical by Roman Catholic and Orthodox Christians.

He was a monk of the Benedictine abbey of Corbie near Amiens; beyond this fact very little is known about him. He is best known for his treatise on the Eucharist (De corpore et sanguine Domini liber), in which he contradicted the doctrine of transubstantiation, taught in a similar work by his contemporary from the same monastery Radbertus Paschasius. Ratramnus sought to reconcile science and religion, whereas Radbertus emphasized the miraculous. However the two agreed that Christ was present in the eucharist, Radbertus by miracle and reality and Ratramnus by faith and symbolism....

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Real Presence is a term used in various Christian traditions to express belief that in the Eucharist, Jesus Christ is really present in what was previously just bread and wine, and not merely present in symbol, a figure of speech (metaphorically), or by his power (dynamically). Not all Christian traditions accept this dogma. Efforts at mutual understanding of the range of beliefs led in 1980s to consultations on Baptism, Eucharist and Ministry (BEM) through the World Council of Churches, consultations that included the Roman Catholic Church. Roman Catholic and Orthodox Christians see the Real Presence in terms not of a physical or "carnal" presence, but of transubstantiation/metousiosis....

Buddhism evolved a variety of doctrinal/philosophical traditions, each with its own ideas of reality. The following are still regularly studied in some branches of the Buddhist tradition: Theravada, Vaibhashika, Sautrantika, Jojitsu, Madhyamika, Yogacara, tiantai, Huayan. Some of these are divided into subschools, and all are subject to interpretation, both by Buddhist teachers and by academic scholars.

High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Rebbe, which means master, teacher, or mentor, is a Yiddish word derived from the identical Hebrew word Rabbi. It mostly refers to the leader of a Hasidic Jewish movement. In accordance with Yiddish pronunciation norms, the stress is on the first syllable and the final vowel is sometimes reduced to a schwa. The Hebrew letters for rebbe, resh-bet-yud, according to some interpretations, form an acronym for "rosh bnei yisroel", meaning "the spiritual head of the Children of Israel". More than just a rabbi, a rebbe by definition needs to be a Tzaddik; and if his influence is felt even outside of his own circles then he would also be considered a manhig Yisroel, (one of the spiritual leaders of his...

Rebirth in Buddhism is the doctrine that the evolving consciousness (Pali: samvattanika-vinnana) or stream of consciousness (Pali: vinnana-sotam, Sanskrit: vijnana-srotam, vijnana-santana, or citta-santana) of a person, upon the death or dissolution of the aggregates (P. khandhas, S. skandhas), becomes one of the contributing causes for the arising of a new group of skandhas. The consciousness arising in the new person is neither identical to, nor entirely different from, the old consciousness, but forms part of a causal continuum or stream with it. The basic cause for this persistent re-arising of personality is the abiding of consciousness in ignorance (Pali: avijja, Sanskrit: avidya); when...

Over the past half century, Taiwan has experienced rapid social changes. While traditional Taiwanese family values (mainly shaped by Confucianism) remain influential, they are gradually losing their moral adequacy. Analysis of the evolution of historical family ethics helps us to understand the most serious problems facing Taiwanese families: extramarital relationships and intergenerational conflicts. This book offers a critical reappraisal of covenant ethics in both the Judeo-Christian and Chinese traditions and its ability to provide moral resources for evaluating the current family ethos in Taiwan. The goals of family life, which were closely associated with ancestral worship and filial piety, need to be reconsidered. This book argues...

Forgiveness, typically viewed in terms of personal relations or the church confessional, is largely or wholly absent from todays public and foreign policy discourse. However, for South Africas Truth and Reconciliation Commission (TRC), forgiveness, framed in Christian theology and expressed in religious idiom, became the metanarrative that characterized the TRCs formula for national reconciliation. The efficacy of evoking personal forgiveness and interpersonal reconciliation in conflict resolution arenas is explored in this monograph. It especially examines the question of whether forgiveness is a sufficiently robust motive force to break or interrupt intractable cycles of violence. Accordingly, its examination yields new insight into...

North America’s colonization exposed indigenous cultures to unspeakable transgressions and forced survivors onto ever-shrinking reservations to live under the laws of white pioneers. Today, small Western and indigenous farmers are threatened by a new kind of colonizer: Corporate America.

Lured by myths of the north, he travels to Alaska where he finds more of what he thought he’d left behind: isolation, restlessness, a traumatic past.
