Barbara Marx Hubbard, President, Foundation for Conscious Evolution Not since Ken Wilber has a new voice shed so much light on the nature of consciousness and reality. The Bookwatch, January 2004 Focuses on releasing unconscious karmic memories, which allows for a harmonious relationship to the "All." Engaging and thorough." - Shift at the Frontiers of Consciousness (Institute of Noetic Sciences), March-May 2004 Jeff Eisen is a brilliant Socratic explorer who takes us on a journey to Oneness…I recommend it. an especially recommended addition to Religion, Spirituality, and Metaphysical Studies reading list. The book returns psychology to its earlier roots in phenomenology, taking introspective and subjective experience as the starting point and not as something to be discarded because it is "unscientific.". In the spirit of pure inquiry, the author develops a comprehensive theory of consciousness and uses it to illuminate religion, mysticism, science, and psychology. It conveys the viewpoint of enlightenment in a clear and systematic way. Oneness Perceived is a sutra for our culture and our time. The critical point is in recognizing the energy patterns and operative attractor fields from which emerge negative or positive patterns of behavior. It culminates with an analysis of the Broken Window Theory and how the differences in approaches-fragmentation or wholeness-generate different results. The paper examines examples of effective change agents who have made a difference in people’s lives. Drawing from quantum physics, this paper presents a theoretical framework, a new “context” for understanding urban environments and the implementing of programs of urban transformation, including faith-based programs. Almost all discussion of urban social policies emerges from a context of fragmented thinking.
This fragmentary perspective, emerging from Greek dualism and fueled by the Newtonian mechanical view of the world with its Cartesian split of either/or understanding of reality, does not lead to wholeness. We live in a divided world dominated by a fragmentary worldview that treats the wholeness of the human family, urban environments, and social reality as inherently discrete, distanced, and disconnected.
