One of the most influental books i ever read. Like Orwell says in 1984 "The best books are those that tell you what you know already. wide range of criticism of life thus law, order, politics,ethics,religion all from wide range of points of view(basically cosmopolitan). This book surprised me constantly with the comprehensive stunning observations. I didn't believe that it could inspire me enough write a review despite of being speechless and still in the shock of what i just read. This book is not a novel more of an ontological conspiracy, the best one i read so far.

I just finished rereading this book. This is my all time favorate book. I remember picking this up late one night at a little book store. I wasn't into science fiction at the time but it kept calling to me. Finally I bought it. I'm so glad I listened to the calling of that book.
It's about a Vietnam veteran who falls asleep and wakes up in the year 2150. Each morning he wakes up bake in 1976. Jon wants to stay in 2150 with Lea and it's about his struggles to make it there for good.
This book changed my life. It was like someone had written down all my beliefs into a story form. To find out there were other people out there that thought on the same lines I did was wonderful.
I'd recommend it to everyone. It could change your life too. Or maybe just help you see the world in a little different way

A super fun and readable book, although it seems fairly preachy most of the time. The philosophy centers around the non-judgement of others but the main characters seem to be somewhat judgemental the majority of the time (i.e. everyone in 1976 or on the so called micro island is living a miserable existence, while all of the macro souls of 2150 are in an awesome state of perfectly evolved ecstasy). Also- the book operates under the assumption that we are all predestined to evolve in a linear spiritual/cultural pattern. There seems to be only one path and one answer to this philosophy, which is a little closed minded for my tastes. 2150 A.D. gets two stars for at least making me think about why it doesn't work, and for pure kitschy entertainment.

I found this book in the book swap shelves at work (too bad we don't have that any more). Reading a book in 2003 that was written in 1978 and travels to 2150, was a unique experience. Its a look at a future utopian society through the dreams of the main character in 1978 and the weird cross over of realities. Also its claimed that John Lennon was inspired by this book when he wrote the lyrics to Imagine.

kooky, hard to get into...but worth the effort. Karma, macro philosophy, and more.

What a remarkable book. I dared not read it too quickly lest I fail to grasp the more advanced concepts presented. Even then my mind was frequently awash with the ideas presented and how I saw my life in comparison.

Though many of the general concepts were not new to me, Thea managed to present them in a 'novel' fashion that was cohesive and entertaining. As for me, I feel, yet once again, like a beginner. This vision for a new world is certainly attractive to me, and represents the heaven on earth the ancients often described. Meanwhile, my micro-self wonders if such a thing could ever come to pass. But then, standing back and observing from a bit more Macro perspective, I see the sprouts of Macro awareness pervading the world around us. The status-quo will fail, like the ground or road covering a sink hole. With enough time and pressure that which was will be no more, giving way to that new idea that has been lurking in our subconscious awaiting its turn in the sun.

2150 A.D. has led me that much further in my own evolation.

3 çeşit intihar vardır ve her ölüm birer intihardır.

En yaygın intihar türü Anomik olandır. Yani bunalım, amaçsızlık ve umutsuzluktan kaynaklıdır.

Bir diğer intihar türü, Altruistik olandır. Yani, ölüm kaçınılmazdır ve kişi diğer insanlar zarar görmesin diye kendi canından vaz geçiyordur. Örnek olarak Titanik gemisini verebiliriz. Yetersiz can yeleği vardır ve kişi diğer insanlar ölmesin diye kendi yeleğini başkasına verir.

Ve son olarak Tekamül intiharları yani kitabımızın ana konusu. Burda kişi hayattan öğrenmesi gereken her şeyi öğrenmiştir. Hayata bi amaç için gelmiştir ve görevini tamamlamıştır. Artık hayatın ona katabileceği bir şey kalmımış, makro düzeye ulaşmıştır.

Bundan sonra intihar eden biri ile karşılaşırsam artık üçüncü opsiyonu da göz önünde bulundururum artık. Bakarsın o da benim gibi makro edebiyata giriş yapmıştır filan. =)

Kitabın yazarı, kitabın ana karakterinin üvey kardeşi ve bahsi geçen her şeyin gerçek olduğunu iddia ediyor, bu da okuyucuya farklı bi haz veriyor doğrusu okurken. Kitap makro farkındalığı kaleme alıyor. Böylesine felsefik bir konuyu roman olarak sıkmadan okutmak kolay olmasa gerek.

pandemi, evden çalışma dönemi benin spiritüel tarafımı ortaya çıkardı.. karma, paralel evrenler, astral seyahatleri yadsımayanların seveceği bir kitap..
makro insanlığın babası olarak isa'nın gösterilmesi ve yer yer fazla didaktik bir dil kullanılması dışında gayet keyif veren bir okuma..

Yer yer bir dinin yüceltilmesi, yer yer siyasi vurgulamalar, ütopik bedensel güzellemeler ve tek tiplilik gibi yerlerin üzerinde durmazsak; metafizik, parapsikoloji, makro felsefe, astral seyahat, bilimkurgu gibi alanlardan çok sürükleyici bir ütopik roman. Yazar bunun bir roman olmadığını, karakterimiz Jon Lake'in günlüğüne ait olduğunu söylüyormuş. Yaşanmış bir olay olduğuna inanan çok.

Makro insanın duygusuz olarak tasvir edilmesi, hepsinin en mükemmel hallerde var olduğunun vurgulanması biraz rahatsız etti açıkçası. Yine de mutlaka okunması gereken kitaplardan. Dizisi yapılsa çok keyifli olur.

Makrofelsefe: her şey tek bir mükemmel, makrokozmik, bölünmez bir bütündür. Bu her şeyin mükemmel, her şeyin tek bir evrensel zihin olduğuyla ilgili kadim idealist bir kavramdır.

"Bir zihnin gelişkinliği kabul edilemez görüneni kabul edebilmesiyle ölçülür."

" Düşünceler eylemler kadar önemlidir."

"Olan, kendi zamanı ve yeri için mükemmeldir. Her şey kendine uygun zamanda gerçekleşir. Nehri akmaya zorlayamayız."

"Arzuladığın ve elde edeceğine inandığın her şeyi elde edersin."

This is the best "fiction" book novel I have read in the last decade. The conversations relayed and the authenticity of it is mindblowing.

Finally, someone wrote about the highest best possible time-line where humanity chose inner-growth and evolution over technology and drugs.

This book reminds me of the "Brave New World". Both worlds are almost the same except BNW uses technology and drugs to always keep people happy and treats the Savage Land as a zoo but in this one you see how people understood inner peace and the same world became a paradise and the Savage Land is not a zoo but a place for them to go relentlessly to try to help them. Technology became a tool not a master and everything is in its place.

It is just a fantastic book fully aligned with the real spiritual teachings of the world. I really wished I was living there.

In 1969, a professor at Gannon College in Erie, Pennsylvania, had a series of dreams for 6 months. Each night he would pick up where he left off, in an earth 80 years in the future. As strange as this may seem, he condensed his experiences into two books: A Macro Philosophy for the Aquarian Age, copyright October 1970, and 2150: the Macro Love Story copyright October 1971. Both books (white cover version) were published by his short-lived corporation, the Macro Development Center. Don shared the copyright with his former graduate student and wife, Thea Alexander.

Original title : 2050 A.D

Read 2150 A.D. in two days when I was in high school. I went through a complete metamorphosis. Not only found and liberated the sources of my depression, unhappiness, the feeling of being trapped, it also filled the empty spots in my spiritual life and everything clicked. Real or not, this is what I believe in. I must have read it at least once every year after that. I find something new every time. I could say this is my holy book. It should be made into a movie by a great producer but I am not sure if the world is ready. Nevertheless, I recommend it to everyone of all ages.

This book feels like self-help disguised in a plot. The author presents an interesting new-age perspective on historical teleology and the progression of Man, but in the end, the plot meanders. Supporting characters act as predictable, and ultimately one-dimensional, guide posts that are there for the sole purpose of providing a shallow counterpoint to the growth of the main character. If you want to pick up a book like this, go for Celestine Prophecy.

I read this book when it was first published and have probably given 25 or 30 copies as gifts. This allowed me to shift some rigid concepts about life, death and choice. Plus it's a really good read!

Well done and well written, this book change my perspectives on life when I was younger and continues to guide me to new and interesting places. A must read to see a bigger picture in life than what we are living!

Totally possible from my point of view.
Dreams, I have often thought, are merely separate realities.
Took me 20 years to read it. A tiny book.

22. yüzyılın spiritüel toplumu ile karşı karşıyayız; Makro Toplum. Burası, ruhsal uyanışı başarmış kolektif bilinçlerin, koşulsuz sevgiyle yönettiği bir dünya.

İnsanın kendi değer ve varoluşlarını sorgulamaya iten bu harika kitap diyor ki; Tüm dünya bir sahnedir ve tüm insanlar kendi zamanlarında bir çok rolü oynayan oyunculardır. Makro benlik olduğumuzun farkındalığına eriştiğimizde, tüm var olanı, var olmuş olanı ve var olacak olanı sevinçle kabul edebilir, bunu deneyimleyebiliriz. Çünkü olan, kendi yer ve zamanı için mükemmeldir.♥️

*Çok tavsiyedir.

‘Bir zihnin gelişkinliği kabul edilemez olanı kabul edebilmesiyle ölçülür.’ Makro filozofların söylemiş oldukları gibi, öğrenci hazır olduğunda, öğretmen ortaya çıkacaktır. İsteyin, alacaksınız der bu felsefe.

I read this book as a youth and its utopian message resonated with me at the time. It's fun to think about the potential for our dreams, which are probably just an amalgamation of stimuli we receive from daily living, media, stories we here, etc.; however, the concept that we go to sleep and awaken in a better place - still troubled, but evolved beyond pettiness and harm - is an incredible draw. I just remember enjoying where the author took me and I appreciated the reprieve and message of hope.

I read this book back around the time it first came out. It was a hot read for those of us into New Age philosophy/practice, est graduates, etc. It was a really fun read, right around the time I was practicing Lucid Dreaming and trying to Astral Project. I do remember, even then, that the writing wasn't great, but I definitely have fond memories... a guilty pleasue? Wonder what it would be like to re-read now.

This was in a bundle of sci-fi books I had in epub format, and I like old sci fi, so I loaded it up. It reads like someone trying to sell me something. The writing is terrible, and the "plot" simply serves as a mechanism to lecture the reader about "macro-philosophy". The book is about a worldview held by the author (and sold in seminars and such in the 70's) about karma, past-lives, and all sorts of other woo-woo garbage. Stopped reading after the first chapter.

Bu kitabi okudugumda sanirim 9 ya da 10 yaslarindaydim. Daha sonra bir suru kitap okudum, ancak hicbir sanal dunya gozumde bu kadar net canlanmadi. Bu kadar o dunyanin sokaklarinda dolasmadim, o dunyayi bu denli yasamadim... Ustunden onca yil gecti, simdi okusam ne hissederim bilemiyorum tabii. Fakat bir solukta okuyup bitirmis, sonra bittigi icin gunlerce uzulmustum.

I read this book when I was about 12, I think. It was really profound to me then, though I'd worry I'd find it obnoxiously naive and hippy now, given all the astral projection, free love and toga wearing philosophers in it. But the fact that I looked it up on Goodreads and rated it four stars for the indelible memories it laid should say something about it.
