    For the last four centuries, science has tried to account for everything in terms of atoms and molecules and the physical laws they adhere to. Recently, this effort was extended to try to include the inner world of human beings. Gary Lachman argues that this view of consciousness is misguided and unfounded. He points to another approach to the study and exploration of consciousness that erupted into public awareness in the late 1800s.

    In this “secret history of consciousness,” consciousness is seen not as a result of neurons and molecules, but as responsible for them; meaning is not imported from the outer world, but rather creates it. In this view, consciousness is a living, evolving presence whose development can be traced through different historical periods, and which evolves along a path to a broader, more expansive state. What that consciousness may be like and how it may be achieved is a major concern of this book.

    Lachman concentrates on the period since the late 1800s, when Madame Blavatsky first brought the secret history out into the open. As this history unfolds, we encounter the ideas of many modern thinkers, from esotericists like P. D. Ouspensky, Rudolf Steiner, and Colin Wilson to more mainstream philosophers like Henri Bergson, William James, Owen Barfield and the psychologist Andreas Mavromatis. Two little known but important thinkers play a major role in his synthesis―Jurij Moskvitin, who showed how our consciousness relates to the mechanisms of perception and to the external world, and Jean Gebser, who presented perhaps the most impressive case for the evolution of consciousness.

    An important contribution to the study of consciousness ... a must-read.

    Follow The Money: How China Bought the World by: Michael William McCarthy

    Follow The Money: How China Bought the World by: Michael William McCarthy

    While anyone can hop on a plane and fly anywhere in the world for work or a holiday, investigative journalist Michael McCarthy combines the two, using his frequent press trips as research for hundreds of stories of his travels to nearly 50 countries. While ostensibly reporting about places to stay, where to go and what to do on vacation, he also keeps his eye out for hidden clues about ways that the Chinese Communist Party is secretly infiltrating western democracies in order to take over the world. The book is structured as a page turner, one trip leading to the next, told in narrative style about what the author sees and where, and why the reader should know and care about what is actually happening to the world behind the scenes. The Chinese are taking over the world, and using Westerners money to do so, a true Trojan horse disguised as actions good for all concerned, but deadly dangerous for all.www.audible.com/pd/B0CR6P73WT/?source_code=AUDFPWS0223189MWU-BK-ACX0-381139&ref=acx_bty_BK_ACX0_381139_pd_us#Kinmen #CCPChineseCommunistParty #ChairmanMao #ChiangKaishek #China #ChinaPRC #ChinaROC #ChineseCivilWar #ChineseCommunistParty #ColdWar #Communist #CulturalRevolution #HoChiMinhCity #KuomintangKMT #MaoZedong #MargaretMacMillan #MichaelMcCarthy #MichaelWilliamMcCarthy #KinmenIsland #Quemoy #RussellNewton #NewtonMG #FollowTheMoney

    If you want to understand people better, be better valued for your contribution in a conversation, or simply want to be genuinely more knowledgeable, keep reading.

    Think Like Socrates doesn’t go into boring details and endless philosophical methodology. It provides you instead with lessons from one of the best philosophers in human history, Socrates, and keeps you hooked as you explore the fascinating techniques of the thinking genius.

    Socrates is often mentioned as the founder of Western philosophy. He encouraged his students to think for themselves instead of having someone provide the solution. He was an excellent communicator and questioner. He stood true to his beliefs and methods to the end. He is a human worth examining.

    Learn the art of knowledge and persuasion through intentional inquiry.

    How to raise important questions, probe beneath the surface of problems, and pursue challenging areas of thought.

    Discover the structure of your own thoughts, develop sensitivity to clarity, accuracy, and relevance.

    Persuade people without being manipulative using reasoned inquiry.

    Learn to ask questions professionals use to transform your emotion-driven thinking patterns and avoid misunderstandings.

    Apply Socratic Questioning in your organization to deescalate conflict, gain a deeper understanding of problems, and find better solutions.

    Educate yourself; find a path to being an exceptional communicator.

    In Think Like Socrates you’ll get a hint of philosophy theory, but walk away with real, practical advice to improve your life. Philosophy today shouldn’t be an ambiguous thought exercise; this book makes it practical, life-enhancing, and useful.

    Steven Schuster is a bestselling author and entrepreneur. He writes using scientific research, academic experience, and real-life experience.

    *INTERNATIONAL BOOK AWARD**AWARD WINNING FINALIST*
    Based on a lifetime of research into shamanism, visionary states, the evolution of written communication and the roots of storytelling, award-winning author, editor, and shamanic explorer Matthew J. Pallamary takes those with open minds courageous enough to question the illusions that most of us think of as real on an expansive journey that pierces the veil of reality itself.Pallamary's in-depth analysis of human perception, shamanism, visionary states, cognitive neuroscience, plant and animal consciousness, and sacred geometry, as well as the prehistoric roots of our deepest cultural myths not only lay bare the illusory roots of what we have built our failing society on, it provides a detailed map that points the way through the non-sense hall of mirrors that we currently find ourselves trapped in.The Center Of The Universe Is Right Between Your Eyes, But Home Is Where the Heart Is, is Pallamary's thirteenth book, and in it he weaves a convincing tapestry that alternates threads of ancient philosophies and preserved indigenous wisdom with recent discoveries in quantum physics, psychology, and the timeless, persistent archetypes of our subconscious.
