Timothy Having had a look and a think, I've got good and bad news for you.
The good news is that you've intuited some real data, although your starting point of Social Anthropology is one of the worsts ones to take. Cannot be helped. The vocab'jargon used is execrable but as you've already have some people who can access the information buried in it. it works. I've done much the same thing myself on a near to this topic, though I had nobody to point it out to me, haha. I keep it on my PC as a reminder. You could read John Curtis Gowan. Operations of Increasing order, a freebie on Inet + two others quite good. He went to indian thought to show up many levels of mind stuff as sassed out by Yoga, etc. Next Charles Tart, into Alterable State of Concsiousness, had a website, very good. Aldous Huxley ditto, forget the title William James, Variety of mystical or religious experience. Evelyn Underhill on Mysticism, about medieval stuff, interestingly points out how they then suffered from hysterical attacks of incubi and succubi having sex with them, good way to have wet dreams. It's one of the first and only ones I read when there was hardly anything onit. Have a gawp at a website of mine, nab,vfed,net. poke straight into a browser, not on any search engine, nab = new age book. Theyll all put you into more directions that may help. I prefer ZEN to both Sufism and Yoga, as well as alchemy and many English poets. Don't give up. there's lots of higher and other states that help make it easier and simpler. I seems you cauht a whiff of chaos theory I'm recently into, also a good site by McGill or something. Apart from all that, there's them what can help themselves, them what try to stop them, them what cannot or won't and the nasties who want to play god and turn out to be demons. adrian --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Epistemology" group.
