Saving Grace: The search for the psychic immune system
Professor Jerry Kroth’s magnum opus explores an entirely new dimension in whether there is a psychic immune system.
There is a surfeit of evidence that “something” in the human condition seems to suppress violence, barbarity, genocides, tyrannies, and other dark eruptions. Not that they don’t happen. Like influenza, psychic epidemics appear regularly, but they manage to come under some kind of control rather rapidly. Auschwitz closes. After Stalin, a thaw. After Pol Pot, the killing fields are shuttered. After Mao, the gang of four is rebuffed, and a generation of businessmen takes the helm. The list is of these benign outcomes is much more numerous than you might imagine.
There have been twenty “very close” nuclear mistakes and miscalculations,which could have led to a full blown nuclear holocaust and nuclear winter. To attribute this long string of happy outcomes to “good luck” carries odds of a million to one.
Perhaps there is another protective force, or process, or entity we may have overlooked that has our back instead. The question this book addresses is entirely unprecedented in the history of is there a psychic immune system that mobilizes its mysterious antibodies and operates in a parallel fashion to the physical immune system?
With over a thousand footnotes and more than 100 photos and graphics, the adventure is relentless and the data assembled nothing short of overpowering.
Publisher
“Numerous scientific surveys have noted the imminent self-destruction of the human species resulting from the ravaging of the environment. "Saving Grace" provides a glimmer of hope, making the audacious suggestion that there is a self-corrective aspect of the collective psyche that can be compared to the immune system. This "psychic immune system" has come to humanity's rescue before and may well do again before time runs out. . . Dr. Kroth has made a masterful synthesis of quantum physics, evolutionary biology, and transpersonal psychology, among other disciplines. . . Saving Grace is well written, well documented, and well argued. Readers may be inspired, they may be infuriated, but they will never be bored.”
—Stanley Krippner, Ph.D. author of Varieties of Anomalous Experience
& editor Journal of Consciousness Studies
The core concept of this book is so completely amazing and jaw-dropping
it will be to the twenty-first century what Freud’s
Interpretation of Dreams was to the twentieth.
—C.D. Griffard, Ph.D., Professor of Psychology
“I believe if you read Saving Grace cover to cover it will permanently alter your perception of the how you see history, how you view the threat of war, how you think about the stock market, how you evaluate the dangers facing your own
personal life. This book is nothing short of a revolution
in psychology pure and simple.”
—Marvin Forrest, psychotherapist, co-author of
Psychology Underground
“Saving Grace in its broad and rich analysis of many past
and current events has challenged me. Prof. Kroth argues persuasively
that we are not awash in a sea of chance and evil.”
—David Frederick, Ph.D., Psychotherapist
