Michael’s inquiry into Mysticism continues. The latest theories of the Neo-Materialists are analyzed and revealed as deeply flawed and inadequate. The central principles of European Mysticism are explained in clear no nonsense language, and the many misconceptions about Mysticism dispelled. Michael decimates the case for Posthumanism, Cybernetics, Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality, and other antihuman dystopian nightmares.
