Decoding Jung's Metaphysics


Book Description

More than an insightful psychologist, Carl Gustav Jung was the twentieth century's greatest articulator of the primacy of mind in nature, a view whose origins vanish behind the mists of time. Underlying Jung's extraordinary body of work, and providing a foundation for it, there is a broad and sophisticated system of metaphysical thought. This system, however, is only implied in Jung's writings, so as to shield his scientific persona from accusations of philosophical speculation. The present book scrutinizes Jung’s work to distil and reveal that extraordinary, hidden metaphysical treasure: for Jung, mind and world are one and the same entity; reality is fundamentally experiential, not material; the psyche builds and maintains its body, not the other way around; and the ultimate meaning of our sacrificial lives is to serve God by providing a reflecting mirror to God’s own instinctive mentation. Embodied in this compact volume is a journey of discovery through Jungian thoughtscapes never before revealed with the depth, force and scholarly rigor you are about to encounter.




The Red Serpent Trilogy


Book Description

"In 2021, the Vampires attacked Earth and decimated the human population. After a fierce and bloody battle, war commander John Howe led the forced evacuation of the humans to the gigantic orbiting space station Regnum, and the human refugees have been there ever since. Then one day, General Howe's orphan nephew, Alexander, uncovers a terrible secret about his past--and that he may be the subject of prophesy. The boy's world is turned upside down when Gareng, the Vampiric General, reveals his own family ties to Alexander. As the two grow closer, Gareng begins to question the wisdom of his people waging Vampiric war on the humans. But Gareng's own son will stop at nothing to seize control and eliminate the humans once and for all... After learning his true origins, Alexander finds himself in an impossible situation: he must choose whether his allegiance lies with his mother's people, or with his father's--and condemn the other to certain doom. But migra is thicker than water, and as Alexander embraces his role as Falsifier, he begins to hope that there could be another way. Can Alexander forge a peace between the two warring factions--could he and Gareng ever convince the Vampires to agree--or will prophecy reach its bloody final chapter as Earth is plunged again into unrelenting war?"--Dust jacket.

Both the Rappites and the Owenites came to New Harmony to conduct communal living experimentsÑRapp expecting the millennium; Owen believing he had brought the millennium with him. Although the two men were motivated by different ideas, they shared the same goal: to see their people live together in happiness and peace. Their two experiments are probably the best known and most interesting efforts at establishing alternate or Utopian communities in America.
