靈魂的本質、健康的生活、人類的未來綜觀二十世紀偉大先知艾德格．凱西的生平思想和教導 影響後世甚鉅的通靈先驅 被譽為「沉睡中的先知」的艾德格・凱西，1877年出生於美國肯塔基州，在一個虔誠的基督教家庭成長，從小熟讀聖經，立志將來要成為一位牧師。 六歲時，開始看見異象，可以和死去的親人交談。十三歲時，可以用「照相式記憶」將睡前閱讀的資訊倒背如流。十五歲時，能夠以靈視力為人治病。二十四歲時，已具有連結至人類集體潛意識心靈的本領。 1931年時，創立「研究暨開悟學會」（The Association for Research and Enlightenment，簡稱ARE），在禱告後引發的出神狀態給出「解讀」，一次約二十到四十五分鐘，有時一天解讀十多個案例，結束後他什麼也記不得。解讀的過程，全程由一位速記員在旁記錄成資料歸檔。 直到1945年逝世前，造冊的解讀檔案共計有一萬四千多件之多。這些完整檔案，也成為後世學者彙整及研究凱西教導的原始素材。 凱西的解讀中，有三分之二是為治療特定的生理病痛和疾病提供的建議，剩餘的三分之一則聚焦在靈性成長、夢境詮釋、古代文明（尤其是亞特蘭提斯）、輪迴轉世、人生目的，以及嘗試將身、心、靈融入日常生活的許多實用課題，包括親子教養、商業實務等等的日常領域。 本書從凱西於一九○一至一九四四年間呈現的幾千篇談話中，完整介紹凱西最基本的理論、準則和教導。編著者馬克博士是研究凱西教導的首席權威，專研凱西檔案超過二十五年以上，並深獲凱西子女的高度信任，對於想一窺凱西靈訊堂奧的讀者，本書提供了了解其教導完整面向的最佳入門途徑。 十二大靈訊精要 1.一切相連，萬物一體： 依據深層的「合一」實相而不是「萬物一體」的陳腔濫調過生活。 2.人生是有所目的的，每個人天生帶有個人使命： 被創造出來的每一個人都帶有特定的才華、技能和資質，讓我們得以在人世間享有獨特的「存在之道」並促使我們的靈性覺醒。 3.將人生當作一次探險： 藉由在自己的人生中測試理念，我們才能夠學習。 4.比較心讓人脫離了自己的靈魂目的： 將自己與他人比較，努力取得優勢──這類競爭癱瘓靈魂的成長。是慈悲的對立面。 5.為自己負起責任： 只有在我們掌握情境且全然盡到自己的本分時，真正的療癒才會發生。 6.向前看，而不是向後看： 活出今天，但要知道明天與你休戚與共。

【内容簡介】貴族少年道林‧格雷擁有俊俏的容貌和純潔的內心。因受到亨利勳爵教唆，他向好友霍爾渥德為他畫的肖像許願——希望以一己靈魂換取永恆的青春，讓畫像代替自己老去。願望荒唐至極，卻在一夜之間成真。道林自此逐漸迷失方向，終日沉醉於自己的美色，甚至做出喪盡天良的壞事。他走上歧途，不能自拔，直至徹底滅亡。【核心賣點】1 經典文學作品：作為奧斯卡‧王爾德的代表作之一，該小說享有廣泛的知名度和文學價值，吸引着文學愛好者的關注。2 唯美主義思想：小說展現了唯美主義運動的核心思想，追求美的追求和藝術的重要性，吸引著對藝術和美學有興趣的讀者。3 深刻的哲學探討：作品中提出的道德、個人選擇和責任等哲學問題引發了廣泛的討論，對於追求深度思考和心靈探索的讀者具有吸引力。4 人性的描繪：小說通過主角道林·格雷的內心變化和墮落，深入揭示了人性的複雜性和內心的黑暗面，引起讀者對人性和道德的思考。5 社會批判：作品中對上流社會的虛偽和道德腐敗進行了批判，呈現了當時社會現象，引起讀者對社會問題的關注和共鳴。6 精美的裝幀設計：本書以精裝發行，可作禮品書。采用精美的裝幀設計，包括高質量的紙張、精美的插圖和版式等，使得書籍本身成為一種藝術品。這種設計不僅能夠提升讀者的閱讀體驗，還能夠增加書籍的收藏價值。【一句話推薦】中英對照版《道林‧格雷的畫像》融合唯美主義與道德探索，雙語對照提升閱讀能力，經典之作不容錯過。名人推薦Wilde’s brilliantly allusive moral tale of youth, beauty and corruption was greeted with howls of protest on publication.Reread today, however, The Picture of Dorian Gray is a wonderfully entertaining parable of the aesthetic ideal (art for art’s sake), and a sneak preview of the brilliance exhibited in plays such as The Importance of Being Earnest and Lady Windermere’s Fan.
