PaGaian Cosmology

Re-inventing Earth-based Goddess Religion

By: Glenys Livingstone

PaGaian Cosmology brings together a religious practice of seasonal ritual based in a contemporary scientific sense of the cosmos and female imagery for the Sacred. The author situates this original synthesis in her context of being female and white European transplanted to the Southern Hemisphere. Her sense of alienation from her place, which is personal, cultural and cosmic, fires a cosmology that re-stories Goddess metaphor of Virgin-Mother-Crone as a pattern of Creativity, which unfolds the cosmos, manifests in Earth's life, and may be known intimately. PaGaian Cosmology is an ecospirituality grounded in indigenous Western religious celebration of the Earth-Sun annual cycle. By linking to story of the unfolding universe this practice can be deepened, and a sense of the Triple Goddess-central to the cycle and known in ancient cultures-developed as a dynamic innate to all being. The ritual scripts and the process of ritual events presented here, may be a journey into self-knowledge through personal, communal and ecological story: the self to be known is one that is integral with place. PaGaian Cosmology may be used as a resource for individuals or groups seeking new forms of devotional expression and an Earth-based pathway to wisdom within.

Intention and Causation in Medical Non-Killing

The Impact of Criminal Law Concepts on Euthanasia and Assisted Suicide

By: Glenys Williams

Analyzing the concepts of intention and causation in euthanasia, this timely new book explores a broad selection of disciplines, including criminal and medical law, medical ethics, philosophy and social policy and suggests an alternative solution to the one currently used by the courts, based on grading different categories of killing into a formalized justificatory defence. This text explores how culpability, blameworthiness and liability are ascribed and how ascertaining mens rea and actus reus are problematic in an end-of-life decision-making scenario. Williams criticizes the way the courts rely so exclusively on the criminal concepts of intention and causation in such medical scenarios and examines and raises awareness of the inadequate and inappropriate legal framework within in which judges have to operate. Topical and compelling, this significant contribution argues for a more open and honest approach which would, in turn, provide the certainty, consistency and equality required by the law. This is a quintessential read for all students studying medical and healthcare law and the legal aspects of health and medicine.

Why Hasn't God Healed Me?

How Faith and Persistence Can Bring Healing and Wholeness to All of Us

By: Glenys Godfrey

Based on the author's experiences of teaching the Word of God on healing and praying with the sick, this little book uses a common-sense conversational approach to provide answers for those unhappy people who have not yet received the manifestation of their healing by God, and have failed to understand why. The author explains why the first requirements are a desire to be healed and accepting that sickness does not come from God, and how faith and the Word must work together to harness God's power for healing. The book explains how to deal with doubt and unbelief, as well as many other possible barriers to healing. The final message is that in seeking healing through God, we must never give up hope.ÿ
