The Crack in the Cosmic Egg

Mehr zum Buch

This classic work profoundly influences a generation with its insights into the nature of mind and reality. It defines culture as a "cosmic egg," shaped by the mind's need for logical order. The author offers techniques for individuals to break free from logic-based systems, facilitating expanded creative living and learning. Our understanding of the world forms a shell of rational thought, which can trap us in a cycle of reasoning that diminishes our mental power and hinders our potential. Escaping this cycle requires focus and centering, which modern society often disrupts. Drawing on the ideas of thinkers like Teilhard, Tillich, Jung, and Jesus, the author presents a way of thinking that allows imagination to transcend the limitations of current reality and progress toward a new phase of human evolution. This popular New Age classic re-emerges to challenge a new generation, encouraging the development of potential through innovative modes of thought. With a compelling synthesis of recent findings in physics, biology, and psychology, it uncovers the profound connection between mind and reality, revealing nature's blueprint for a self-transcending humanity.
