Man Ascendant: An expansion of the human

by Howard F. Dossor

AN EXPANSION OF THE HUMAN There is a tendency for each individual to see the self as the centre of the universe and to interpret the universe from an individualistic perspective. But such a perspective severely restricts our understanding of life and of our place in it. If we shift our perspective and see ourselves as a part of an ever-expanding whole, our understanding of everything alters dramatically and the adventure of living takes on a new vitality. Rather than being imprisoned in a time-space continuum, Man has the potential to utilize the unlimited potential he carries within himself in an act of self-transcendence that not only opens up new worlds but actually creates them. Each individual has the opportunity to contribute to that process. In these pages, Howard F Dossor sets out some of the basic parameters of this broader view of the self and of the world and suggests some of the implications that flow from it. The result is a challenge to rethink some of the basic concepts, such as mind, time, spirit and mystery as they impact upon our experience. Written in a direct and simple style, these reflections suggest a pathway to a resolution of some of our most fundamental questions about existence.
