In Salute the Everlasting Day Chrysostom Koutloumousianos transcends time, location and culture to bring two great minds together. Preeminent hymnographer of the Greek-speaking East, Romanos the Melodist, and the most enthralling poet and preacher of early modern England, John Donne, meet in passionate dialogue. The poets'' similarities and divergences are explored, their poetic and theological brilliance is demonstrated in a comparative context, and unfolded is the connection between the eschatological Kingdom and the transfiguration of the human being in this present life.Using direct quotations from their literary corpus, as well as tailoring to the needs of a living dialogue, and elaborating on their teachings, Koutloumousianos presents the first comparative study of Romanos the Melodist and John Donne in all its sensitivity and beauty, capturing their shared vision for contemporary society.

How new technology is rapidly changing the nature of money and the way we payA diverse and growing range of financial institutions and platforms—from PayPal and Venmo to WeChat, Alipay, and the brave new world of stablecoins—has harnessed new technology to disrupt the system of money and payments as we know it. Beyond Banks explains why this disruption holds out the promise of faster, cheaper, more convenient, and more secure payments, but also how it increasingly risks exposing consumers, businesses, and governments to the problem of bad money. Dan Awrey traces the origins of our current bundled system of banking, money, and payments. He explains why the problem of bad money—the result of antiquated and inadequate laws and regulation that fail to establish credible commitments to hold, transfer, or return a customer’s money on demand—requires that policymakers fundamentally rethink their approach toward the design of the laws and institutions at the heart of this system. He presents ways to effectively unbundle banking from money and payments, ensure the credibility of monetary commitments, and promote the stability of this system. Awrey also envisions a more forward-looking role for policymakers in encouraging greater technological experimentation, competition, and innovation in the realm of ...

The keys to self-knowledge and deep contentment are right here before us, in this very moment—if we can simply learn to live with presence and open awareness In The Unfolding Now, A. H. Almaas presents a marvelously effective practice for developing the transformative quality of presence. Through a particular method of self-observation and contemplative exploration that he calls inquiry, we learn to live in the relaxed condition of simply “being ourselves,” without interference from feelings of inadequacy, drivenness toward goals, struggling to figure things out, and rejecting experiences we don''t want. Almaas explores the many obstacles that keep us from being present—including defensiveness, ignorance, desire, aggression, and self-hatred—and shows us how to welcome with curiosity and compassion whatever we are experiencing.
