hidden">Sophos Ontology: On Post-Traditional Spirituality discusses religious plurality and post-traditional perspectives on emergent forms of sacred sensibility, particularly for those identifying as “spiritual but not religious.” This book is divided into three parts. The first part is a retrospective account of multiple religious traditions, with emphasis on esoteric thought as influenced by mystical writings, covering western, eastern, and Native American traditions. The second part discusses the need for a new conceptualization of the “sacred” as expressed through multiple spiritual perspectives relevant to a pansentient, post-traditional process ontology. Other topics in this section include the importance of an ethically shaped spirituality, collective influences, dreams, imagination, and the role of pluralism in shaping beliefs. Part three explores the role of faith, redefined as spiritual commitment, mysticism as direct experiential knowledge, and transpersonal theory influenced by comparative studies in altered states of consciousness, paranormal research, and the metaphysics of discovery — all contributing to the development of present and future spirituality.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="48f0e2e2104283cd3d1949cb699fe984" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":109251118,"asset_id":111833406,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/109251118/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="111833406"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="111833406"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 111833406;

Finally, the paper offers a comparison of traditional historical accounts with NDE research in order to draw conclusions about the nature of soul in esoteric theory as seen from a contemporary perspective. What makes esotericism interesting is not its historicity nor the fact that past human beings had unique, unusual, or non-ordinary ideas or experiences, but rather that the gnosis evident in those traditions represents a fundamental human capacity for transformation and spiritual illumination. What makes esotericism meaningful is this capacity that we all have for greater awareness.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7cabd68925fefcfa8efade33db63f939" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":100094292,"asset_id":98855625,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/100094292/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="98855625"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="98855625"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 98855625;

I describes four basic types of dreaming: normative, mythic, psychic, and transpersonal, and he illustrates each type with specific dream examples. These types of dreaming are then used as a lens to look more closely at additional dream types that indicate dreaming as a process of creative discovery. Through virtual dreaming encounters, latent human potentials are revealed and suggest aspects for spiritual development based on dream recording, interpretation, and analysis. In turn this leads to a metaphysical description that is pan-sentient, illustrating a vivid, living universe of process-becoming in which certain dream types reveal mythic, psychic, and transpersonal capacities as intrinsic to a deeper more awakened sense of intersubjective self-awareness. While dream theories from many diverse authors are explored, the author uses an existential and phenomenological method to analyze dreaming contents in relationship to altered states of mind, trance, out of body and near-death experience, meditation, imagination, and stages of lucid self-awareness. Transpersonal dreams are given considerable attention in relationship to mystical traditions, paranormal research, and the comparative anthropology of self. <br /> <br />Now available on Kindle, see below.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="783e7581ca938725c775156105e2547f" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":84329457,"asset_id":76716587,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/84329457/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="76716587"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="76716587"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 76716587;

It reviews paranormal research over the last fifty years, discusses major theoretical issues therein and links these issues to religious conceptions of the person in ways that challenge older models of human identity. The chapter engages the ontological and metaphysical implications stemming from paranormal research, including theory from transpersonal studies, as a strategic base for the formulation of a more nuanced, paradigmatic portrait of the sacred human. Primary ideas discussed include cosmological pan-sentience, process philosophy, near death experience, mediumship, clairvoyance, precognition, telepathy, super-psi, survival theory, and reincarnation. These concepts will be shown to be crucial in any meaningful construction of the person and intrinsic to general religious theories of self, soul, and personhood.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e65d5297866769dcb4894d9497ee6bb6" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":82243446,"asset_id":73894486,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/82243446/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="73894486"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="73894486"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 73894486;

Dream types are not well developed in dream research; this article contributes to the development of a more typological approach to dream analysis. Four dream types are presented and contextualized with reference to their metaphysical and ontological significance. The types discussed are normative-rational dreams, mythic-imaginal dreams, psychic-intuitive dreams, and supernal-transpersonal dreams. The various types are illustrated with examples from the author's extensive dream journal in order to highlight the subtle distinctions between the dream types, and how they might intersect or overlap. The dream morphology is placed within a larger context of metatheory based on the ontological significance of agency and its relationship, through dreaming, to a sentient cosmology. This cosmology is based on a creative, process-based metaphysics, in which dreams function to sustain and promote human development. Dreaming is presented as a visionary capacity leading to new enactive and embodied ways of life. The article shows how dreams can act as a stimulus for ontological insights and become a basis for paranormal perceptions and an inspirational approach to dream actualization.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="62b1cfc8e310e75a7e817153c69ccf99" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":64810949,"asset_id":44374137,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/64810949/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="44374137"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="44374137"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 44374137;

It is the purpose of this paper to highlight the main currents of reincarnation theory in the American context, giving a brief historical survey. Sources surveyed begin with Native American traditions, and then move to immigrant traditions based in Western Esotericism, Christianity, Judaism, missionary Hinduism and Buddhism, Spiritualism, Theosophy, Rosicrucianism, and concludes with more current theoretical influences, based in paranormal science research. The paper demonstrates that current theories of reincarnation are increasingly less dependent upon religious support and increasingly based in direct personal experience, paranormal research, and new therapeutic models. The paper concludes with some reflections on the complexity of reincarnation theory and raises questions concerning the future development of such theory.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="aee8304936f1bf1a5a1243d094f6658c" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":54768059,"asset_id":34843164,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54768059/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34843164"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34843164"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34843164;

This attitude holds that Nature is a womb of life, that not only are creatures alive, but that the elemental structures of composite life are also alive. Further, birth, death, and transformation are noted as key dynamic processes, often cyclical, through which "living nature" nurtures continuity and innovation. Against this background of "nature nurturing" the question of sentience becomes a triptych, a threefold concern that places human sentience midway between the intimately small and the macrocosmically large. In the larger scale, the question of sentience can become a theological issue-is there a vaster, more profound intelligence of which nature and human mentality are only lesser reflections, such that human sentience is circumscribed by multiple conditioning factors that limit, shape, and constrict a deeper sacred potential? In the middle scale, is the human mentality (or psychology) a norm against which all other nature mentalities can be measured and found lacking? Is human mental life paradigmatic for all mentality, though still relative and conditional, a gold standard of consciousness? In the intimately small, is it possible that every compound and element of nature, every molecule, atom, and particle, is in some way "sentient"however diverse and distinct, as an inherent feature of the "initial conditions" of first creation cosmology?</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="11792639f9333fa0f5582bc4b8f02e8f" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":36200714,"asset_id":3171759,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/36200714/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="3171759"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="3171759"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 3171759;

This paper charts the oracle history, extending over several thousand years, from the 18th Dynasty of Egypt (c. 1550 B.C.E.) through the rise and fall of Greek and Roman culture (c. 500 C.E) and shows the interconnections between the many oracle sites. I also give some account of the actual practices, the temple appointees, and the text traditions.

And yet, it is precisely the metaphysics of religious claims that underlies its most significant impact on human life and communal relationships. This lack of metaphysical context has been attributed to the rise of modern scientific rationalism and its incipient dependence on an observable, and often rigid, classificatory empiricism. i The ground of this empiricism, embedded in the subject-object split, is articulated as a tension between the public, observable phenomena or "fact" and the private, unobservable datum of "inner perception". By excluding the subjective and private from the discourses of empirical analysis, metaphysical claims by members of various world religions have been marginalized by many academic scholars as myth and fantasy or characterized as mere "folklore" and often swept aside as the detritus of misguided subjectivisms, no longer relevant in a rational, public, measurable, externalized world of observable facts. ii</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="b73de333e35c4ef33b90dad9d41f2f59" class="wp-workCard--action"

hidden">Sophos Ontology: On Post-Traditional Spirituality discusses religious plurality and post-traditional perspectives on emergent forms of sacred sensibility, particularly for those identifying as “spiritual but not religious.” This book is divided into three parts. The first part is a retrospective account of multiple religious traditions, with emphasis on esoteric thought as influenced by mystical writings, covering western, eastern, and Native American traditions. The second part discusses the need for a new conceptualization of the “sacred” as expressed through multiple spiritual perspectives relevant to a pansentient, post-traditional process ontology. Other topics in this section include the importance of an ethically shaped spirituality, collective influences, dreams, imagination, and the role of pluralism in shaping beliefs. Part three explores the role of faith, redefined as spiritual commitment, mysticism as direct experiential knowledge, and transpersonal theory influenced by comparative studies in altered states of consciousness, paranormal research, and the metaphysics of discovery — all contributing to the development of present and future spirituality.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="48f0e2e2104283cd3d1949cb699fe984" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":109251118,"asset_id":111833406,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/109251118/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="111833406"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="111833406"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 111833406;

Finally, the paper offers a comparison of traditional historical accounts with NDE research in order to draw conclusions about the nature of soul in esoteric theory as seen from a contemporary perspective. What makes esotericism interesting is not its historicity nor the fact that past human beings had unique, unusual, or non-ordinary ideas or experiences, but rather that the gnosis evident in those traditions represents a fundamental human capacity for transformation and spiritual illumination. What makes esotericism meaningful is this capacity that we all have for greater awareness.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="7cabd68925fefcfa8efade33db63f939" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":100094292,"asset_id":98855625,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/100094292/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="98855625"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="98855625"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 98855625;

I describes four basic types of dreaming: normative, mythic, psychic, and transpersonal, and he illustrates each type with specific dream examples. These types of dreaming are then used as a lens to look more closely at additional dream types that indicate dreaming as a process of creative discovery. Through virtual dreaming encounters, latent human potentials are revealed and suggest aspects for spiritual development based on dream recording, interpretation, and analysis. In turn this leads to a metaphysical description that is pan-sentient, illustrating a vivid, living universe of process-becoming in which certain dream types reveal mythic, psychic, and transpersonal capacities as intrinsic to a deeper more awakened sense of intersubjective self-awareness. While dream theories from many diverse authors are explored, the author uses an existential and phenomenological method to analyze dreaming contents in relationship to altered states of mind, trance, out of body and near-death experience, meditation, imagination, and stages of lucid self-awareness. Transpersonal dreams are given considerable attention in relationship to mystical traditions, paranormal research, and the comparative anthropology of self. <br /> <br />Now available on Kindle, see below.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="783e7581ca938725c775156105e2547f" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":84329457,"asset_id":76716587,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/84329457/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="76716587"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="76716587"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 76716587;

It reviews paranormal research over the last fifty years, discusses major theoretical issues therein and links these issues to religious conceptions of the person in ways that challenge older models of human identity. The chapter engages the ontological and metaphysical implications stemming from paranormal research, including theory from transpersonal studies, as a strategic base for the formulation of a more nuanced, paradigmatic portrait of the sacred human. Primary ideas discussed include cosmological pan-sentience, process philosophy, near death experience, mediumship, clairvoyance, precognition, telepathy, super-psi, survival theory, and reincarnation. These concepts will be shown to be crucial in any meaningful construction of the person and intrinsic to general religious theories of self, soul, and personhood.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="e65d5297866769dcb4894d9497ee6bb6" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":82243446,"asset_id":73894486,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/82243446/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="73894486"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="73894486"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 73894486;

Dream types are not well developed in dream research; this article contributes to the development of a more typological approach to dream analysis. Four dream types are presented and contextualized with reference to their metaphysical and ontological significance. The types discussed are normative-rational dreams, mythic-imaginal dreams, psychic-intuitive dreams, and supernal-transpersonal dreams. The various types are illustrated with examples from the author's extensive dream journal in order to highlight the subtle distinctions between the dream types, and how they might intersect or overlap. The dream morphology is placed within a larger context of metatheory based on the ontological significance of agency and its relationship, through dreaming, to a sentient cosmology. This cosmology is based on a creative, process-based metaphysics, in which dreams function to sustain and promote human development. Dreaming is presented as a visionary capacity leading to new enactive and embodied ways of life. The article shows how dreams can act as a stimulus for ontological insights and become a basis for paranormal perceptions and an inspirational approach to dream actualization.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="62b1cfc8e310e75a7e817153c69ccf99" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":64810949,"asset_id":44374137,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/64810949/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="44374137"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="44374137"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 44374137;

It is the purpose of this paper to highlight the main currents of reincarnation theory in the American context, giving a brief historical survey. Sources surveyed begin with Native American traditions, and then move to immigrant traditions based in Western Esotericism, Christianity, Judaism, missionary Hinduism and Buddhism, Spiritualism, Theosophy, Rosicrucianism, and concludes with more current theoretical influences, based in paranormal science research. The paper demonstrates that current theories of reincarnation are increasingly less dependent upon religious support and increasingly based in direct personal experience, paranormal research, and new therapeutic models. The paper concludes with some reflections on the complexity of reincarnation theory and raises questions concerning the future development of such theory.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="aee8304936f1bf1a5a1243d094f6658c" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":54768059,"asset_id":34843164,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/54768059/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34843164"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34843164"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34843164;

This attitude holds that Nature is a womb of life, that not only are creatures alive, but that the elemental structures of composite life are also alive. Further, birth, death, and transformation are noted as key dynamic processes, often cyclical, through which "living nature" nurtures continuity and innovation. Against this background of "nature nurturing" the question of sentience becomes a triptych, a threefold concern that places human sentience midway between the intimately small and the macrocosmically large. In the larger scale, the question of sentience can become a theological issue-is there a vaster, more profound intelligence of which nature and human mentality are only lesser reflections, such that human sentience is circumscribed by multiple conditioning factors that limit, shape, and constrict a deeper sacred potential? In the middle scale, is the human mentality (or psychology) a norm against which all other nature mentalities can be measured and found lacking? Is human mental life paradigmatic for all mentality, though still relative and conditional, a gold standard of consciousness? In the intimately small, is it possible that every compound and element of nature, every molecule, atom, and particle, is in some way "sentient"however diverse and distinct, as an inherent feature of the "initial conditions" of first creation cosmology?</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="11792639f9333fa0f5582bc4b8f02e8f" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":36200714,"asset_id":3171759,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/36200714/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="3171759"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="3171759"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 3171759;

This paper charts the oracle history, extending over several thousand years, from the 18th Dynasty of Egypt (c. 1550 B.C.E.) through the rise and fall of Greek and Roman culture (c. 500 C.E) and shows the interconnections between the many oracle sites. I also give some account of the actual practices, the temple appointees, and the text traditions.

And yet, it is precisely the metaphysics of religious claims that underlies its most significant impact on human life and communal relationships. This lack of metaphysical context has been attributed to the rise of modern scientific rationalism and its incipient dependence on an observable, and often rigid, classificatory empiricism. i The ground of this empiricism, embedded in the subject-object split, is articulated as a tension between the public, observable phenomena or "fact" and the private, unobservable datum of "inner perception". By excluding the subjective and private from the discourses of empirical analysis, metaphysical claims by members of various world religions have been marginalized by many academic scholars as myth and fantasy or characterized as mere "folklore" and often swept aside as the detritus of misguided subjectivisms, no longer relevant in a rational, public, measurable, externalized world of observable facts. ii</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="b73de333e35c4ef33b90dad9d41f2f59" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":31065798,"asset_id":3171831,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/31065798/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="3171831"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="3171831"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 3171831;

Th ese diffi culties stem from shallow or artifi cial representations that mask a long history of brutal political and religious oppression, false characterizations, the denial or underevaluation of native epistemologies and spiritual values, and the constant tendency to rewrite, reinscribe, and reassimilate native beliefs into alien, nonnative constructs of meaning. Th e need to avoid essentializing attitudes and falsifying "trickster hermeneutics" ( Vizenor 1999 , 15-18) in native interpretations of religious practices creates a context of tension, uneasy resistance, and oft en anger and suspicion on the part of native persons toward any (false) claims to represent native religious thinking. As a scholar of native religious history, I am keenly aware of the ambiguity that informs a fi eld of study whose history is overshadowed by 400 years of oppression, denial, and marginalization through aggressive colonialism and government control, followed by an unexpected late-twentieth-century turn toward romanticization, commodifi cation, and a naive fi xation on native spirituality unmoored from its usual grounding in place, language, tradition, and required social relationships. An authentic context for teaching native religions requires conscious commitment to bring fully into view, for discussion and debate, the long and painful history of religious denial and constant mis/reinterpretation that has dominated most discussions of native religions .</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="1158a97dd4d220adf60c667c5e3cc78c" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":31065811,"asset_id":3171849,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/31065811/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="3171849"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="3171849"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 3171849;

intensive "cultural" studies of the role of rites, ceremonies and beliefs in a specific native community; and theoretical discourses that cut across religious practices in search of common unifying themes. The substance of these studies have been based primarily in the perceptions, observations, and theories of non-native observers. These non-native, written observations have then been used as primary sources for the study of native religions. Further, the context of Christian missionization, anthropological categorical reductions, and a surplus of historical narratives written by non-native observers has resulted in an externalized and fragmented view of native religions. The beliefs and practices have been recorded in limited selections in the form of monographs and field reports by those often unfamiliar with the language and thought worlds of native practitioners. Subsequently, there exists significant tensions between the actual spiritual beliefs and practices within a given native community and the external literature on the religion of that community authored by non-native scholars.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="0e7ac92e4811a062c159b0b08270ce97" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":31065155,"asset_id":3170323,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/31065155/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="3170323"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="3170323"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 3170323;

The very earliest historical records all bear eloquent witness to the longstanding importance of the vision quest experience and the close attention given to their contents, enactment, and the ways in which dreaming contributed to cultural transformation and personal achievement. It is these historical sources which I wish to explore, particularly as they relate to women dreamers and visionaries, in order to provide a summary overview of the value and importance of dreams and visions for traditional Plains women. 2</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="3c05fb1639788bb7e475b0762f7efa57" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":56673961,"asset_id":1329733,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/56673961/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="1329733"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="1329733"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 1329733;

I examine six aspects of the self as shared perspectives, all of which contribute to a creative model of self whose metaphysical attributes derive from a process view of pansentience. The six aspects are: the rhetorical self, the conscious self, the epistemic self, the cosmological self, the transpersonal self, and the communal self. These interactive attributes of self contribute to shifting perspectives that together constitute a robust model of personhood, open at the boundaries and not reducible to any one aspect. The book addresses ontological questions regarding the nature of self in relationship to both psyche and soul, each differentiated to reveal attributes of self that are transphysical and commonly recognized in most religious traditions. To better explain the transphysical aspects, a pansentient ontology is used to demonstrate how human identity can incorporate transphysical aspects of self into a meaningful theory of self-development and evolutionary becoming.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="398ee79c60272ac95bbb25cb218ae918" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":61758472,"asset_id":41095021,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/61758472/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="41095021"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="41095021"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 41095021;

In the American context, indigenous traditions from Native Americans, African slave traditions, and Afro-Caribbean contributed to the ferment of rebirth theories more usually aligned with Spiritualism, Mediumship, Theosophy, Rosicrucian and Masonic beliefs. Reincarnation theories are shown in all these groups to be highly complex and often disjunctive with mainstream religions even though members of conventional religions frequently affirm the possibility of rebirth. In a more contemporary post-American context, reincarnation theories have a developing impact reinforced by late 20th century empirical studies in parapsychology, regression therapy, near-death encounter, and childhood memory claims. As a history of an idea, reincarnation theory is a current, vital belief pattern that cuts across a wide spectrum of social, cultural, and scientific domains in a long, complex history not reducible to any particular religious or theoretical explanation.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><a id="eb8390f1e773cd8695669b7349e2f497" class="wp-workCard--action" rel="nofollow" data-click-track="profile-work-strip-download" data-download="{"attachment_id":84328950,"asset_id":34634346,"asset_type":"Work","button_location":"profile"}" href="https://www.academia.edu/attachments/84328950/download_file?s=profile"><span><i class="fa fa-arrow-down"></i></span><span>Download</span></a><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="34634346"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="34634346"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 34634346;

The Hermetic Christ is a figure representing spiritual maturity, wisdom, healing, and remarkable psychic abilities. The book consists of 60 aphorisms, each with commentary reinterpreting the Christ figure into a contemporary example of spiritual realization. The indwelling presence of the Christ-spirit is linked to the Divine Sophia and together they symbolize the Hieros Gamos or "spiritual marriage" as an ideal inner synthesis of spiritual qualities. The book has many scriptural references to the New Testament, as well as the Hebrew Bible, Qur'an, Corpus Hermeticum, and the Bhagavad Gita.</span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--actions"><span class="work-strip-bookmark-button-container"></span><span class="wp-workCard--action visible-if-viewed-by-owner inline-block" style="display: none;"><span class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper profile-work-strip-edit-button-wrapper" data-work-id="29524596"><a class="js-profile-work-strip-edit-button" tabindex="0"><span><i class="fa fa-pencil"></i></span><span>Edit</span></a></span></span></div><div class="wp-workCard_item wp-workCard--stats"><span><span><span class="js-view-count view-count u-mr2x" data-work-id="29524596"><i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i></span><script>$(function () { var workId = 29524596;
