“In Search of Being: The Fourth Way to Consciousness” by G.I. Gurdjieff

"Over one hundred years ago in Russia, G. I. Gurdjieff introduced a spiritual teaching of conscious evolution—a way of gnosis or “knowledge of being” passed on from remote antiquity. Gurdjieff’s early talks in Europe were published in the form of chronological fragments preserved by his close followers P.D. Ouspensky and Jeanne de Salzmann. Now these teachings are presented as a comprehensive whole, covering a variety of subjects including states of consciousness, methods of self-study, spiritual work in groups, laws of the cosmos, and the universal symbol known as the Enneagram.

“The Sheldrake Shift: A Critical Evaluation of Morphic Resonance” by Thomas Stark

"Rupert Sheldrake is an astute critic of scientific materialism. He is not an astute critic of his own system of formative causation and morphic resonance. The final theory of everything — ontological mathematics — can be used to reveal the fallacies that bedevil scientific materialism and morphic resonance alike. Sheldrake's system can be viewed as a mystical shift away from scientism. It hasn't found a coherent, rational way to replace the scientific worldview. Everything that Sheldrake seeks to accomplish with his ill-defined morphic fields can be analytically achieved by ontological Fourier mathematics. Ontological Fourier mathematics is the formal solution to the notorious problem of Cartesian substance dualism of mind and body and how mind can interact...>>
