I put this down to read Kingsley's "Book of Life". Finishing that, I think the man's delusional. Passed over the line from spiritual seeker to outright crazy. Apparently because the American Indian community couldn't accept him the way the Muslim Turkish community seems to have. He might see the advantages of a multi-ethnic, multi-racial, even secular communities. Now I dont know if I'll finish the last 100 pages.

I kinda stopped reading his earlier book "Reality", to start reading Kinglesy's "A Book of Life", which seemed a bit lighter. But, it seems pretty... delusional. Kingsley has attempted to embrace indigenous American "Indian" spirituality. It involve a huge leap into a position of self-importance, as he now seems to think he has a central role in what sounds like end-time prophecy: Eschatology.

It's become obvious that negative reviewers haven't read the book through, or even a substantial amount! I'm reminded of lines of the Dao De Ching, about people dismissing and even laughing at The Way, otherwise it wouldn't be The Way!

up to 87 and the author has overshadowed my feeble metaphor of the zoo.I shall attempt to get some quotes, but he has a firm grasp on the fact that academic learning and intellectualism gets in the way of truth seeking. I'm very impressed. How could this possibly not remain outstanding philosophical writing to the end? I guess I'll find out
