A plausible, living validation of religion that doesn't contradict reason.
Bernardo Kastrup is een vooraanstaand figuur in de moderne renaissance van het metafysisch idealisme, de opvatting dat de werkelijkheid in wezen mentaal is. Zijn werk duikt in diepgaande vragen over de aard van bestaan en bewustzijn, puttend uit rigoureuze filosofische en wetenschappelijke fundamenten. Kastrup synthetiseert inzichten uit de filosofie van de geest en kunstmatige intelligentie om zijn argument voor de mentale aard van de werkelijkheid te onderbouwen. Zijn geschriften dagen de lezer uit om fundamentele aannames over hun waarneming van de wereld te heroverwegen, en bieden een radicaal ander perspectief op het bestaan.






A plausible, living validation of religion that doesn't contradict reason.
A mesmerizing journey into the unconscious, where one uncovers the unfathomable mechanisms underlying a fractal reality made of thought forms.
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 providing a foundation for it, there is a broad and sophisticated system of metaphysical thought. This system, however, is only implied in Jung's writings, so as to shield his scientific persona from accusations of philosophical speculation. The present book scrutinizes Jung's work to distil and reveal that extraordinary, hidden metaphysical treasure: for Jung, mind and world are one and the same entity; reality is fundamentally experiential, not material; the psyche builds and maintains its body, not the other way around; and the ultimate meaning of our sacrificial lives is to serve God by providing a reflecting mirror to God's own instinctive mentation. Embodied in this compact volume is a journey of discovery through Jungian thoughtscapes never before revealed with the depth, force and scholarly rigor you are about to encounter.
