Though, there's one I'd recommend to .. anyone who could handle it, "The Greatest Story Never Told: A Scientific Inquiry into the Fall of Man from a Higher Civilization in Antiquity" by Lana Cantrell. It's out of print, but you can find it on Amazon, I believe. It's quite long, but it's very well documented and a very good read.




THANK YOU for this recommendation, the information is phenomenal and a pleasure to read.

Cantrell's genius is impressive.
One of the sharpest minds of our time IMO.

Ahhh, glad to hear someone else actually finished it. I've recommended that book to quite a few people, and you're the first, I know of, anyway, that has actually finished it.. or even commented about it. I suppose a lot of others just get discouraged when they see the size of it. But anyway, glad to hear you enjoyed it.


--------------------
A human being is part of a whole, called by us, the "Universe", a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.

Crime and Punishment - Dostoevsky

Excellent in a good translation. The Wordsworth Classics translation is junk.

Flow My Tears the Policeman Said by Philip K. Dick.
Not bad so far. I'm expecting the last 50 pages or so to tie it all together.

How was The Man In The High Castle, OMR? I'm pretty interested in reading more of his stuff.

The Man in the High Castle was quite good. Other Dick books I highly recommend are

Time Out of Joint
The Man Who Japed
Clans of the Alphane Moon

Acid doesn't give you truths; it builds machines that push the envelope of perception. Whatever revelations came to me then have dissolved like skywriting. All I really know is that those few years saddled me with a faith in the redemptive potential of the imagination which, however flat, stale and unprofitable the world seems to me now, I cannot for the life of me shake.

VALIS is probably the most psychotic story I've ever absorbed. If I wasn't insane before reading it, I certainly am now.

I agree.  :thumbup:

Plus, Dick mentions RAW's Cosmic Trigger in the story.  Cool.

I finished _Flow My Tears_ a couple of days ago. Good stuff.
Haven't started on another yet, but I'm planning on reading _Invisible Monsters_ by Chuck Palahniuk next.

Franz Kafka's "The Metamorphosis"
Third time reading it.

The memories that now rest in this forest
Forever shadowing the sunrise of my heart
Wings leave their nest at my coming
Swaying away unto the cold glowing sky
Dreaming away for a while
My spirit sighs in peace
Gazing unto the stars
Please, take me there
