http://www.windwalker.ca/awareness/

Extractions: AWARENESS, PHILOSOPHY AND SPIRIT The Awareness and Philosophy programs of Windwalker are based on the understanding that realization of our potential in body and spirit can be attained through a personal and individual connection with the natural world. These programs are grounded in the spirituality of native peoples of North America. In particular, we acknowledge and honour the lineage of Tom Brown Jr, Stalking Wolf, Coyote Thunder and the people of the Southern Lipan Apache nation. NOTES: AWARENESS AND PHILOSOPHY PROGRAMS ARE SCHEDULED ACCORDING TO NEED. We will come to wherever there is a group of ten or more people ready for these teachings. Generally, a person who wishes to participate will organize these workshops and will be the contact for information and registration. Participants supply their own food unless otherwise indicated. We usually prepare the food and eat together; most of the time we share or trade as well, maybe cookies for carrots. AWARENESS 1: THE JOURNEY INTO POWER Expand your physical awareness, and use this expanded awareness to explore the transition from physical to spiritual awareness. Learn how modern science rediscovered what the ancients knew about brain waves and states of awareness. Learn the overview map of the spirit realm. Discover the richness of the spirit realm and create your own "good medicine place" there. Move into and communicate safely in the world of spirit. Learn the Shamanic Law of native healers.
Hippocrates [Internet Encyclopedia Of Philosophy]
Article by Michael Boylan on this key figure in ancient medicine. By_Topic/Science/Medicine
http://www.utm.edu/research/iep/h/hippocra.htm

Extractions: Hippocrates (c. 450 BCE to 380 BCE.) Hippocrates of Cos was said to have lived sometime between 450 BCE to 380 BCE. He was a physician, and the writings of the Corpus Hippocraticum provide a wealth of information on biomedical methodology and offer one of the first reflective codes of professional ethics. Though Plato (a contemporary) makes reference to Hippocrates ( Phaedrus 270a and elsewhere), it is generally believed that most of the writings in the Corpus Hippocraticum are actually the work of a number of different writers. By convention of time, place and general approach a common name of 'Hippocrates' was assigned to the lot (without distinguishing those of the historical Hippocrates). Hippocrates and the other associated writers provide the modern student with a number of different sorts of insights. On the biomedical methodology side, these writings provide the most detailed biomedical observations to date in the Western world. They also offer causal speculations that can be knitted together to form a theoretical framework for diagnosis and treatment. On the ethical side, their code of professional ethics is so well structured that it continues to stand as a model for other professions.

An online ebook edition of 'The Kybalion A Study of The Hermetic philosophy of ancient Egypt and Greece,' by Three Initiates, along with links that explore the identity of the authors and other Kybalion related information.
http://kybalion.home.att.net

Extractions: An online ebook edition of The Kybalion by the Three Initiates this book is a study of basic hermetic teachings that outlines an ageless wisdom. In ancient times (and perhaps even today) these teachings were not understood by the lay person, but were readily understood by students, after the axioms and principles had been explained and exemplified by the Hermetic Initiates to their Neophytes. The Kybalion was originally written in the early 1900s and has now fallen into the public domain. A priceless gem! Buy it! "... all things [are] evolving from other things, and resolving into other things..." - The Kybalion Therefore, change must apply to The Kybalion as well. While The Kybalion is a great little book, you gotta admit, its language is slowly becoming more outdated. A new publication has evolved that breathes fresh life into an age old philosophy...

For Epicurus the aim of life was pleasure; the highest pleasure was absence of pain; pleasure of the mind was preferable to that of the body. The soul dies with the body, so we must not fear death or afterlife; the gods exist but do not concern themselves with humanity or natural phenomena (all of which can be explained scientifically); we should avoid public life and emotional commitments in order to escape the pains likely to be caused by them. The physical world was explained by the atomic theory adapted from Democritus. Stoicism . After the death of Zeno of Citium, the Stoic school was headed by Cleanthes and Chrysippus, and its teachings were carried to Rome in 155 by Diogenes of Babylon. There its tenets were made popular by Panaetius, friend of the great general Scipio Aemilianus, and by Posidonius, who was a friend of Pompey (see your textbook if you don't recognize these names); Cicero drew heavily on the works of both.

http://www.publicbookshelf.com/public_html/Outline_of_Great_Books_Volume_I/ancie

Extractions: HAVE I ever been restrained from what I willed? Or compelled against my will? How is this possible? I have arranged my pursuits under the direction of God. Is it His will that I should have a fever? It is my will too. Is it His will that I should pursue anything? It is my will too. Is it His will that I should desire? It is my will too. Is it His will that I should obtain anything? It is mine too. Is it not His will? It is not mine. Is it His will that I should be tortured? Then it is my will to be tortured. Is it His will that I should die? Then it is my will to die. He has given me whatever depends upon choice. The things in my power He has made incapable of hindrance or restraint. But how could He make a body of clay incapable of hindrance? Therefore He hath subjected my body, possessions, furniture, house, children, wife, to the revolution of the universe. He who gave takes away. For whence had I these things when I came into the world?
