These sites bring shame upon us now for the cruelty and futility of the events that occurred within them and the ideologies they representedsee oxfam website for delivery information read morethey are however increasingly being regarded as 'heritage sites', a far cry from the view of heritage that prevailed a generation ago when we were almost entirely concerned with protecting the great and beautiful creations of the past, reflections of the creative genius of humanity rather than the reverse - the destructive and cruel side of historysuch episodes and locations include: massacre and genocide sites, places related to prisoners of war, civil and political prisons, and places of 'benevolent' internment such as leper colonies and lunatic asylumsoxfam books & music lichfield places of pain and shame is a cross-cultural study of sites that represent painful and/or shameful episodes in a national or local community's history, and the ways that government agencies, heritage professionals and the communities themselves seek to remember, commemorate and conserve these cases - or, conversely, choose to forget themwhy has this shift occurred, and what implications does it have for professionals practicing in the heritage field? in what ways is this a 'difficult' heritage to deal with? this volume brings together academics and practitioners to explore these questions, covering not only some of the practical matters, but also the theoretical and conceptual issues, and uses case studies of historic places, museums and memorials from around the globe, including the united states, northern ireland, poland, south africa, china, japan, taiwan, cambodia, indonesia, timor and australia

Oxfam bookshop bloomsbury street the lankavatara sutra draws upon the concepts and doctrines of yogacara and buddha-naturein the sutra, the buddha asserts that all the objects of the world, and the names and forms of experience, are merely manifestations of the mind: on the contrary my teaching is based upon the recognition that the objective world, like a vision, is a manifestation of the mind itself; it teaches the cessation of ignorance, desire, deed and causality; it teaches the cessation of suffering that arises from the discrimination of the triple worldvijñana) and the teaching of consciousness as the only realitythe most important doctrine issuing from the lankavatara sutra is that of the primacy of consciousness (sktas to the third; he must recognise and patiently accept the fact that his own mind and personality is also mind-constructed, that it is empty of substance, unborn see oxfam website for delivery information read morehe must recognise and accept the fact that this triple world is manifested and imagined as real only under the influence of habit-energy that has been accumulated since the beginningless past by reason of memory, false-imagination, false-reasoning, and attachments to the multiplicities of objects and reactions in close relationship and in conformity to ideas of body-property-and-abodeas to the second; he must recognise and be convinced that all things are to be regarded as forms seen in a vision and a dream, empty of substance, un-born and without self-nature; that all things exist only by reason of a complicated network of causationas to the first; he must recognise and be fully convinced that this triple world is nothing but a complex manifestation of one's mental activities; that it is devoid of selfness and its belongings; that there are no strivings, no comings, no goingsbecause the world is seen as being "mind-only" or "consciousness-only", all phenomena are void, empty of self (atman) and illusory: there are four things by the fulfilling of which an earnest disciple may gain self-realisation of noble wisdom and become a bodhisattva-mahasattva: first, he must have a clear understanding that all things are only manifestations of the mind itself; second, he must discard the notion of birth, abiding and disappearance; third, he must clearly understand the egolessness of both things and persons

Oxfam bookshop stratford upon avon of time and lamentation by raymond tallis agenda publishing pp hardbackpart 2, "human time" examines tensed time, the reality of time as it is lived: what we mean by "now", how we make sense of past and future events, and the idea of eternityquestions about "the stuff" of time  such as instants and intervals  about time and change, and the relationship between objective and subjective time, open on to wider discussions about time and causation, the irruption of subjectivity and intentionality into a material universe, and the relationship between time and freedomthe first part of the book, "killing time" is a formidable critique of the spatialized and mathematized account of time arising from physical sciencesee oxfam website for delivery information read morefor most of us, time is composed of mornings, afternoons and evenings and expressed in hurry, hope, longing, waiting, enduring, planning, joyful expectation and griefour temporal lives deserve a richer attention than is afforded by the equations of mathematical physicsvery good condition, apparently unreadin of time and lamentation, raymond tallis rises to this challenge and explores the nature and meaning of time and how best to understand itwith the scientistic reduction of time set aside and lived time reaffirmed, tallis digs deeper into the nature of time itself in the final part, "finding time"the passage of time, the direction of time and time travel are critically examined and the relationship between mathematics and reality, and the nature of the observer, are exploredthinking about it is to meditate on our own mortalitythe story told by caesium clocks, quantum theory and lorentz coordinates, tallis argues, needs to be supplemented by one of moss on rocks, tears on faces and the long narratives of our human journeythose, like tallis himself, who seek to find a place at which the scientific and humanistic views of humanity can be reconciled, will celebrate his placing of human consciousness at the heart of time, and his showing that we are "more than cogs in the universal clock, forced to collaborate with the very progress that pushes us towards our own midnight"yet, physics has little or nothing to say about this time, the time as it is livedfor anyone who has puzzled over the nature of becoming, wondered whether time is inseparable from change, whether time is punctuate or continuous, or even whether time, itself, is real, of time and lamentation will provoke and entertain£ time's mysteries seem to resist comprehension and what remains, once the familiar metaphors are stripped away, can stretch even the most profound philosopherthe culmination of some twenty years of thinking, writing and wondering about (and within) time, it is a bold, original and thought-provoking workwith characteristic fearlessness, tallis seeks to reclaim time from the jaws of physics
