Über diesen Titel

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 the prisms of religious myth, truth, and belief, respectively. With each turn, the book seeks to convey a more nuanced and complete understanding of the many facets of transcendence. Part I puts forward the controversial notion that many religious myths are actually true, and not just allegorically so. Part II argues that our own inner storytelling plays a surprising role in creating the seeming concreteness of things and the tangibility of history. Part III suggests, in the form of a myth, how deeply ingrained belief systems create the world in which we live. The three themes, myth, truth, and belief, flow into and interpenetrate each other throughout the book.

This took my mind to the end of itself and put it to rest. It is the most fulfilling reasoning I have ever witnessed. The most sofisticate simple story at the same time that gives us a model to quench old uneasiness faced with the challenges of truth and meaning. You might need to read "materialism is baloney" to remove some obstacles which could prevent you to understand and appreciate this work.

A paradigm shifter masterpiece
