The Ego Matter: About the Importance of Autonomy for Realizing Your True Self (Scholarly Articles, Vol. 7) is an extensive personal guide manual helping the listener to become aware of their unique soul values. The author came to call our unique power potential primary power or self-power at first, before he introduced the term soul power.

Eight Dynamic Patterns of Living: Base Elements of True Civilization (Essays on Law, Policy and Psychiatry, Vol. 2, 2018) is a study on native cultures with a specific focus on their lifestyle patterns.

Terence McKenna (1946-2000) has been studying the ontological foundations of shamanism and the ethnopharmacology of spiritual transformation for the past quarter century. An innovative theoretician and spellbinding orator, McKenna emerged as a powerful voice for the psychedelic movement and the emergent societal tendency he calls The Archaic Revival, one of his most popular books. In 1993, McKenna wrote in This World and Its Double. It’s clearly a crisis of two things: of consciousness and conditioning.

Patterns of Perception: Preferred Pathways to Genius deals with an important topic both for science and spirituality: direct perception. How do humans perceive reality? Is there something like a universal reality, one that is valid for all of us, or is reality always personal? And how does the memory surface work? Is our school system the right one, or do we have to implement fundamental changes so as to mold our school system after the way our brain learns? Would that not be the most intelligent way of doing it?

This audiobook is both a science and a self-help essay that presents a non-moralistic, functional, and bioenergetic regard on emotions, sexuality, sexual paraphilias, and sexual crime that asserts the importance of the flowing, ethereal, and self-regulatory nature of our emotions.

This book is a scholarly yet practical edition of the I Ching both for beginners and seasoned practitioners. The special focus of this divination guide is upon leadership, self-leadership, and leading others. The central concern of the author is to help the reader understand the I Ching from a point of view of decision-making, and as an aid to decision-making. In this sense, the ‘oracle book’ becomes an effective guide for taking action, which can mean bold action, nonaction or retreat. The wisdom is to arrive at right action, in whatever form it has to be carried out.

This 2017 revised, updated, and reformatted edition is not an article in the classical sense, but rather an intuitive summary of all of the author’s nonfiction books. Its paradigmatic style and authoritative diction have not a little in common with Nietzsche’s Thus Spoke Zarathustra. This expanded worldview is a concise sketch of "realizable" new ways, both individually and collectively, or, in a more expanded formulation, a new worldview that re-institutes real morality principles instead of the fake morality that postmodern international consumer culture practices

Basics of the Science of Mind: The Twelve Branches of the Tree of Knowledge (Scholarly Articles, Vol. 18), 2017, is a scholarly article that demonstrates how our science could look like if it was really holistic and integrative. The "Science of Mind" is an idea propagated by new-thought authors who have explored the frontiers of science comparing it with the ancient knowledge base of the Hermetic tradition.

This is an essay on the unique teaching of J. Krishnamurti. It starts with the question "What is consciousness?" - and carefully proposes a holistic definition, after reviewing the various psychological and spiritual theories that deal with this subject. The author actually goes a step ahead and focuses on a more particular issue, a provocative question asked by K: “How to empty consciousness of its content?”

Basics of Feng Shui: The Art and Science of Sensing the Energies is an introduction into a perennial science that originated from the ancient Chinese practice of arrangement of space, which is claimed to achieve harmony with the environment. There is scientific evidence now that feng shui is effective and not just a belief system, as astrology is not a belief system. Feng shui is a science of the bioenergy and perhaps the oldest distillation of this holistic knowledge.

Codependence: Coping with Addiction, Sadism and Abuse is based on a white paper the author drafted for a drug rehabilitation center in the United States. The study is basically divided in three parts, dealing with different manifestations of parent-child codependence and the resulting lacking autonomy and self-reliance of the later adolescent and young adult, who, as a result of his early entanglement with a parent gets into a negative growth spiral by a rather queer sexual development (sadism), and dependency patterns in all spheres of life.

Love or Laws: When Law Punishes Life (Essays on Law, Policy and Psychiatry, Vol. 4, 2018) is a study on so-called "sex laws" or age-of-consent laws. The study takes a critical point of departure and attempts to demonstrate that ages of consent are rather arbitrary legal instruments for so-called child protection. In fact, they are ineffective and do not protect children effectively against sexual abuse.

The Roots of Violence: Why Humans Are Not by Nature Violent (Essays on Law, Policy and Psychiatry, Vol. 10, 2018) is an analytical and policy study that presents abundant evidence that human beings are not by nature violent and that violence therefore is a conditioned response. The scientific disciplines examined are anthropology, biology, neurology, pedagogy, psychoanalysis, and sociology.

The audiobook shows that while still at the time of Newton and Descartes, science was myopic toward wholeness and hostile to nature, the author advocates new science as a holistic understanding of the field nature of life and a systemic view of living systems that is coherent and sustainable.

The Tao Te Ching by Lao-tzu is one of the most translated books of world literature. It is here presented in a translation that deliberately avoids any philosophical commentary and renders the text in English in its most simple and straightforward composure.

Das Dao De Ging - auch Tao Te King oder Daodejing geschrieben - ist eines der meist-übersetzten Bücher der Weltliteratur. Es ist hier dargeboten in einer Fassung, die auf jeden philosophischen Kommentar bewusst verzichtet und den Text so einfach und prägnant wie möglich hält. Alles, was Zierrat ist in der Diktion muss daher gnadenlos weggestrichen werden, sodass sozusagen das Skelett der Gedanken durchscheint.
