Focus and Self-Development in a World Without Limits

Published on by Angel Millar2 Comments

If we know anything it is that, increasingly in both the West and the East, we are living in a world without limits. Everything is multiplying:

Food is “mass produced.” In regard to gender, some time ago Facebook began offering users 58 gender options, but has since increased it to over 70. In popular “culture,” we’ve gone from game shows offering tens of thousands of dollars in prizes, to lotteries and even Pepsi offering billions of dollars. Elections, too, are now a billion dollar industry.

With a total lack of understanding of what it is to be human, scientists tell us that soon, “Our human genomes will be modified” so that people will be able to achieve immortality.

A Metapsychology of Self-Liberation: Introduction

Published on by Angel Millar1 Comment

Liberation begins in the mind of the individual. The mind is both the Great Cage and the Great Space, tightly constraining or limitless—as we decide.

How we define liberation can and must change over time, so I won’t spend much energy on it here. Suffice to say, for now, that liberation expresses itself as three virtues: Peace, Freedom, and Happiness. How these three arise, and what we may do to open ourselves up to them, is the subject of this series.

Psychology is, as we all know, the study of the workings or “logic” of the mind. But the circularity of the mind studying the mind is, at some level, unsatisfactory. Continue reading “A Metapsychology of Self-Liberation: Introduction” →
