Spirit calls Nature: Towards the Higher-Mind seeing

By Marco Masi

A trilogy on the synthesis of knowledge between science, philosophy and spirituality. What is the nature of consciousness and the mind? Is the mind physical? What does science tell us about free will? What is reality? Is a new way of seeing the world and a new science possible? Is a materialistic worldview which reduces everything to the laws of physics the last word? Is reason the ultimate tool for knowledge? Is the universe an undirected and purposeless clockwork or is there more in life and evolution? Can we reconcile science, philosophy, life, consciousness and evolution from a 'spiritual emergentist' perspective? These and many other scientific, philosophical and existential questions will be addresses and answered in the frame of a grand vision between East and Wets, science and philosophy, materialism and spirituality. Content of Volume II: The world as an illusion according to philosophical idealism, consciousness and mind with the unwarranted distinction between primary and secondary qualities, the weird world of quantum physics and the question for what is 'real'? The intuitional 'higher-mind' Western philosophy is revisited from Plato to Spinoza, from Berkeley to the philosophers of modernity as Husserl, Bergson, Teilhard de Chardin and Deleuze whose thoughts and inner perceptions have molded the Western metaphysics and phenomenology. Non-materialist philosophies which question the nature of mind, consciousness, and the cosmos such as panpsychism and the return of the cosmic consciousness will conclude the review of Western metaphysics. This will set the stage for a new synthesis between science and spirituality, the analytic and intuitive mind in the frame of the German writer and natural philosopher W. von Goethe and his way of seeing the wholeness of Nature as multiplicity in unity.
