This book is a multi-faceted exploration and critique of the human condition as it is presently manifested. It addresses science and philosophy, explores the underlying nature of reality, the state of our society and culture, the influence of the mainstream media, the nature of free will and a number of other topics. Each of these examinations contributes an angle to an emerging idea gestalt that challenges present mainstream views and behaviors and offers a sane alternative. The book is organized as a series of short and self-contained essays, most of which can be read in under one hour.

Quotes

  • Gert Henrik Olsenhas quoted5 years ago
    This way, if we need to speak in terms of causation, it is fair to say that unhealthy psychic activity in the personal obfuscated psyche causes all illnesses. This shows the importance of integrative medicine: we can treat all illnesses by influencing obfuscated psychic activity.
  • Gert Henrik Olsenhas quoted5 years ago
    The outside image of (self-reflective) egoic processes in consciousness are particular types of brain activity.
    • An outside image of the (non-self-reflective) personal obfuscated psyche is the metabolism in the rest of the physical body.
    • An outside image of the collective obfuscated psyche (mind-at-large) is the physical activity in the rest of the universe.
  • Gert Henrik Olsenhas quoted5 years ago
    consciousness – that is, processes that you are aware that you are aware of – while the obfuscated psyche corresponds to non-self-reflective processes also in consciousness.
