Title
Counter-Cosmos: The Mind of the Mystic - Paperback
by Dick Sullivan (Author)
Counter-Cosmos is a book about mysticism with a scientific bent: what science denies, so does the author. The West today is unprecedentedly unspiritual, but the spiritual is part of mankind's natural make-up: denying it leaves us incomplete and in danger of disintegration. The book deals mainly with Western mysticism - begins with Einstein, in fact - and so is comprehensible to Western readers. Part One strips mysticism down to its basic elements: there's nothing necessarily supernatural about it at all. What is it? (What is it not?) What causes it? What is it like? What are the benefits? What grades are there? How many people are mystics? Can you be one without knowing it? Part Two is more personal and explores those minor mystical events which light up daily life. Partly, this is done through anecdotes from the author's experience as the writer of a series of TV science documentaries. Partly it is also done through short, blog-like analyses and comments on the everyday happenings of a singlesummer. Counter-Cosmos is sequel to Undertones: Mysticism in an Age of Umber.
