Bowing to Our Divine Essence, Within And Suppressing aspects of our ego-mind That impedes our Divine connection

Bowing to Our Divine Essence, Within And Suppressing aspects of our ego-mind That impedes our Divine connection

Barbara Johnston

Balboa Press UK
2025
pokkari
The purpose of this book is to encourage us all to develop within the ability to distinguish between our Divine voice and that of our ego. In doing so we will become inspired through our Divine wisdom to navigate life with clarity that frees us of inner conflict, and allows us to embrace our strengths and weaknesses. We all have a quiet Divine essence within that is often dominated by the noisy aspirations of our ego-mind. Yet, life for us all would be entirely different if we all made a point daily of living life through our Divine lens. Bowing to the Divine essence within, allows our awareness merge into the sacred core of our being to discover our Divine nature. It is in this sacred space that we are able to reawaken our inner wisdom. We then experience life through our Divine lens, and we will never view our earthly life the same again, even after painful moments. We step into our inner power, and it is not about averting painful emotions, but rather seeing all from a higher perspective. Even though our Divine essence, is not visible and is buried in the recesses of our being, it is vividly present within us all and vibrates at an authentic higher reality. Until we connect and sense it within, we will not clearly understand who we are and who we are not. This is not a complicated path and does not require adherence to any particular practice or organisation. It is not an intellectual journey of our mind, and it is not based on any religion, philosophy or belief. It's a simple one that is inherent within us all. One that moves us into a higher consciousness and enriches our life, through our journey of self-discovery, self-understanding and spiritual inspiration.

Speaking Pittsburghese

Speaking Pittsburghese

Barbara Johnstone

Oxford University Press Inc
2013
sidottu
This book explores the history of Pittsburghese, the language of the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area as it is imagined and used by Pittsburghers. Pittburghese is linked to local identity so strongly that it is alluded to almost every time people talk about what Pittsburgh is like, or what it means to be a Pittsburgher. But what happened during the second half of the 20th century to reshape a largely unnoticed way of speaking into this highly visible urban "dialect"? In this book, sociolinguist Barbara Johnstone focuses on this question. Treating Pittsburghese as a cultural product of talk, writing, and other forms of social practice, Johnstone shows how non-standard pronunciations, words, and bits of grammar used in the Pittsburgh area were taken up into a repertoire of words and phrases and a vocal style that has become one of the most resonant symbols of local identity in the United States today.

Pittsburgh Speech and Pittsburghese

Pittsburgh Speech and Pittsburghese

Barbara Johnstone; Daniel Baumgardt; Maeve Eberhardt; Scott F. Kiesling

De Gruyter Mouton
2015
sidottu
Linguists have sporadically noted peculiarities of pronunciation, lexis and morphosyntax in the speech of European Americans in the Pittsburgh area, and Pittsburgh speech, locally known as “Pittsburghese”, has been a topic of discussion in the Pittsburgh area for decades. This variety has never before been systematically documented, however. The first and only scholarly book to describe Pittsburgh-area varieties of English, Pittsburgh Speech and Pittsburghese is an essential reference tool for anyone studying the dialect of the Pittsburgh area and the only textbook choice for anyone teaching about it.

Uses for Journal Keeping

Uses for Journal Keeping

Anne C. Johnstone; Barbara Johnstone; Valerie Balester

Praeger Publishers Inc
1994
nidottu
This text reports on an ethnographic study of journal-keeping in a university science class. The author spent a summer semester attending a general education class in geology as a participant observer, took extensive notes, interviewed class members and the professor, and analyzed journal entries and other documents related to the class. She provides an example of ethnographic methods to be of use to other composition researchers, especially in her careful attention to reflexivity, that is, the effect of the researcher and the research on data. The book provides a detailed exploration of journal keeping from the perspective of both the students and the professor, as well as case studies of how two students in particular used journal keeping. Journal entries are examined not simply as texts produced by individuals for a class assignment, but as the outcome of a socio-political process, including the goals of the general education curriculum, the goals of the geology course and its instructor, the students' personal and educational goals, the institutional constraints on the professor, the methods of the researchers, and the dynamics of classroom interaction.
