Ce livre est une expérience. Inspiré par l’étrange et le bizarre, ce livre est une tentative d’utiliser la science et la rationalité pour lever le voile sur l’irrationnel. Ses voies sont inhabituelles : en les suivant, on rencontre les ovnis et les... Lire la suite

Aujourd'hui, la théorie la plus en vogue pour décrire la réalité est le matérialisme (appelé aussi physicalisme) selon lequel tout ce qui est réel est constitué de matière : tout n'est que matière et la conscience n'est qu'un produit du cerveau.... Lire la suite

Notre culture tient pour acquis que nous vivons dans un monde constitué de matière en premier lieu. Ce triomphe du matérialisme opposé aux visions religieuses ne laisse pas de place à une troisième voie. Pourtant notre expérience directe de la... Lire la suite

Our world culture is founded on the assumption that the Big Bang gave rise to matter, which in time evolved into the world, into which the body was born, inside which a brain appeared, out of which consciousness at some late stage developed. As a... Lire la suite

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... Lire la suite

A rigorous case for the primacy of mind in nature, from philosophy to neuroscience, psychology and physics. The Idea of the World offers a grounded alternative to the frenzy of unrestrained abstractions and unexamined assumptions in philosophy and... Lire la suite

The present framing of the cultural debate in terms of materialism versus religion has allowed materialism to go unchallenged as the only rationally-viable metaphysics. This book seeks to change this. It uncovers the absurd implications of... Lire la suite

A strong and growing intuition in society today is the idea that our thoughts create our own reality. Yet it seems obvious that, try as we might, our lives are not quite what we fantasize. Is the intuition thus wrong? Through a rational, methodic... Lire la suite

We, Western minds, have forgotten who we are, despite having never once stopped being who we are. We’ve lost touch with the impersonal, Daimonic forces that give us direction and the sacrificial nature of our existence. No longer do we realize that... Lire la suite

Why does the universe exist and what are you supposed to do in it? This question has been addressed by religions since time immemorial, but popular answers often fail to account for obvious aspects of reality. Indeed, if God knows everything, why do... Lire la suite

This book is a three-part journey into the rabbit hole we call the nature of reality. Its ultimate destination is a plausible, living validation of transcendence. Each of its three parts is like a turn of a spiral, exploring recurring ideas through... Lire la suite

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... Lire la suite

Leading-edge empirical observations are increasingly difficult to reconcile with 'scientific' materialism. Laboratory results in quantum mechanics, for instance, strongly indicate that there is no autonomous world of tables and chairs out there.... Lire la suite

First proposed more than 200 years ago, Schopenhauer's extraordinarily prescient metaphysics if understood along the lines thoroughly elucidated and substantiated in this volume offers powerful answers not only to the paradoxes of quantum mechanics,... Lire la suite

As the failures of physicalism begin to shake the confidence of even the most biased of its supporters, a new view on the nature of reality is establishing itself as the only tenable alternative: Analytic Idealism. According to it, there is a world... Lire la suite
