Opis

"The Universal Theory of Man: Authority of Self" is an elusive concept that has been sought for decades by Philosophers and Academia of other systems of human knowledge. One reviewer of "The Universal Theory of Man: Authority of Self" described the work as "fascinating and valuable." Another, as a unique approach to identifying our individual capacities going beyond a list of virtues, to help people deeply appreciate our God-given potential and recognize where we might in practice make efforts to grow stronger. Of course, consistent with your other writing, this work is gracefully empowering by attributing human shortcomings and some mental illness to underdeveloped powers rather than to inherent failures. Enough brief examples are given in the text to demonstrate what a profound effect the exercise of these powers can have in even the most difficult situations. It demonstrates impressively the importance of fostering and supporting the development of these powers in youth and even the youngest children. All of this is tied in beautifully with reference to the Covenant of God; and recognizing the Authority above the authority of self. The presentation of the powers of discernment, recognizing limitations, response, receptivity, attention, and anticipation are among those that reviewers found particularly striking as opening doors to new understanding. There is much in the appendices that address mental illness and how the 30 powers of humankind can assist in making sense of the difficulties one faces. Ms. Peterson reveals how the powers of the fetus and infant are intertwined with the mother and in one story demonstrates the development of conscience in a six year old child. Phyllis Peterson is the author of "Assisting the Traumatized Soul," "Healing the Wounded Soul," "The Heroic Female Spirit: a Collection of Tales," published by the Baha'i Publishing Trust; "Remaining Faithful," published by Special Ideas in Indiana; "Seeking Intimacy in a Diverse Community: Seeking the Spiritual Reality of the Mentally Ill, the Physically Challenged, and the Emotionally Wounded," published by George Ronald in England; "The Universal Theory of Man: Authority of Self," "The Sword of Truth: a Sacred Fable," and now, her newest book, "The Skylark Life Skills Manual for Women and Girls."
