A Real Plan for World Transformation

The other reviews on this page are full of revealing detail. In this review, I want to grab your attention by getting to the main points.Do you think thousands of years of meditation and prayer have made much difference in resolving the basic problems of humanity as a whole - hunger, disease, shelter, comfort? If not, then keep reading.Do you think that a few hundred years of the scientific method has resulted in a greater ability to feed people and meet other basic physical needs? If so, keep reading.Does it seem reasonable to you that if technology could fulfill everyone's physical desires in an instant, then there would be nothing left for humanity to be concerned with but spiritual development and exploration of the universe? If so, keep reading.What do you suppose would happen if the kind of intense focus and transcendence of normal consciousness that is practiced by spiritual adepts was somehow adapted to scientific endeavors? What if all the energy that has been devoted to escaping the realities of the physical world was somehow focused on finding technological ways to transform the physical world?Intrigued? If so, then get this book!

<p>The KEY to world transformation!

Project Mind is about the meaning of life, humankind's destiny and, more specifically, about humanity's "mission" in life in our time, the end of the 20th century. Based on the esoteric teachings of the Kabbalah, it describes the essence theory of Creation imparting the true meaning and potentials of essence, desire and the creative channeling of scientific knowledge. As well as revealing mystical secrets in practical, concrete and modern terms, it provides an in-depth look into the philosophical, psychological and spiritual aspects of mankind's predicament. In this wonderful blending of the sacred and secular, the author presents the results of his 40 year quest to resolve the cosmic enigma culminating in Project Mind. The book is written to recruit "allies" for participation in this project, a "higher creativity think tank," which is designed to reconcile science and spirit and reveal humanity's latent, creative genius. This, in turn, is calculated to produce holistic, non-polluting sciences and technologies fulfilling the promise of blessings and abundance that science has always extended. It is rare to encounter a metaphysics/newage book that offers such a wealth of knowledge and presents truly new ideas of which there are at least four: 1.In a time of growing global crisis of over population, pollution and war, Project Mind brings hope and the means to fulfill that hope. The way out of this crisis is through universal "utopian abundance" created by a holistic breakthrough science which is the object of the project. 2.It shows that total abundance, implicit in the mastery of matter,will, through the devaluation of material possessions, eliminate materialism, wage-slavery, suffering, injustice, etc. and reveal the potential and destiny of us all, initiating a new age of "transparent, coherent and harmonious development" generative of omniscience and immortality. Human desire, that habitually attaches itself to rare and valued objects, will have no choice but to cleave to the metaphysical once the physical embodiments of concept and form - what we call "objects" - can be replicated at will. 3.The new breakthrough science it proposes will be purely "contemplative," "vision-driven" and creatively connected, through consciousness, to "higher potentialities" without the need to lean upon the crutch of the mechanical paraphernalia so characteristic of conventional science. 4.The book argues for the existence of individuals who have secretly yearned, all their lives, to unravel at least one of nature's fundamentals. For reasons carefully explained, these individuals have a special degree of aspiration, intensity and integrity capable of making unprecedented efforts of "confrontative thought" and "meditation" on "intractable scientific problems." This, it maintains, is possible because individualizing "essence-desire," that is only latent in the rest

The following is Dr. Peter Lowentrout's review of the book Project Mind by T.Kun. This review appeared in the Vol. 6, No. 1, 1995 issue of "Utopian Studies" the international, interdisciplinary journal of The Society for Utopian Studies (SUS). PROJECT MIND: THE CONSCIOUS CONQUEST OF MAN & MATTER THROUGH ACCELERATED THOUGHT, pseudonymously written by T.Kun, is a prospectus for "Project Mind," a "utopian...think tank." With the publication of this book, Kun intends to recruit "those who wish, with their whole selves, to radically transform for the best what we presently call 'reality'." Kun believes that scientific and cultural progress has thus far been driven by "the Eureka experience," brief moments of brilliant insight. The achievement of "Accelerated Thought" in Project Mind, however, will provide a sustained creative vision that will "establish an ongoing link with higher consciousness, producing a powerful cosmic current channeled through human essence from a higher dimension to fuel the transformatory breakthrough science of the future." This new science engendered by Accelerated Thought "will, within a few years, produce such material abundance that the pursuit of material wealth will lose all meaning." Material deprivation and suffering will disappear from the world along with the "greed, envy, sloth, vice and depravity" induced in us by overindulgence and the adversarial competition characteristic of capitalism. We will quickly come to see that "existence is 99.99% spiritual and only 0.01% physical and that we are all brothers in the spirit." Accelerated Thought, the achievement of which is crucial to Kun's proposed Project Mind, is "a process driven by essential desire whereby the infinite intelligence latent in man finds expression through the rapid revelation of natural and cosmic secrets." Candidates for Accelerated Thought and Project Mind will be deeply creative people who are "if not leaders in their technical specialities, at least highly conversant in some discipline or field of inquiry." They will be people whose adult integrity and strength are "built upon the act of heroic courage in childhood to say 'the emperor is naked,' and who sustained their belief in utopian vision...." Using "special psychological techniques, environmental aids and sophisticated computerization," providing for the material needs and financial obligations of its participants, Project Mind will encourage the development of Accelerated Thought through a bootstrapping process grounded in our "essential individuality" and driven by will and desire. Accelerated Thought, Kun asserts, is "the ultimate self-fulfilling prophecy." If Kun might seem rather vague concerning the exact nature of Accelerated Thought, it might be worth noticing that mystical texts are seldom "how-to" books of the spirit.

<p>Accelerated Thought - a quantum leap

This review was written by Francois Jaubert, Beaver Point, British Columbia, Canada. We live during an age when the diversity and the seriousness of the problems confronting humanity is such that we have no alternative but to achieve a quantum leap in understanding our world, thereby placing ourselves in the position of clearly seeing the absolute necessity for generating breakthroughs of all kinds at a rate unprecedented only because it is commensurate with the immensity and acuteness of our global needs. The meta-thinking this quantum leap requires itself cannot be achieved by utilising ordinary mental and emotional processes. Highly accelerated results simply demand thought accelerated to a degree which is inconceivable by an ordinary mind, or rather by a mind in ordinary mode. Yet Accelerated Thought is a must if we are to arrive at genuine solutions tailored to the megalithic proportions of our profoundly precarious Earth-wide situation. A world-based think-tank specifically designed to generate this type of intensely rarefied and extremely rapid proto-thinking is in the process of being established, its blueprint having been published as the book - PROJECT MIND. A chain-reaction of eureka experiences could so imbue the mind of a critical mass of researcher-visionaries that matter itself would be transubstantiated into a pliable and solvent vehicle for creation of all manner of forms, applications and functions. What the book "PROJECT MIND" describes is not at all a paradisiacal fantasy or an unattainable utopia but is rather a grounded and realistic view of the universe and of our place -- and role -- in it. A fundamental yet extraordinarily perplexing issue such as death is no match for Accelerated Thought which firmly plants thinkers upon the foundation of life whereby our bodies materialize into transcendent corporeality no longer subject to the pseudo-laws of deterioration and decay. Ecstasy must become mundane if we are ever to live in a truly just world where hunger and poverty have no reason to exist. That is why the organizing of PROJECT MIND, the international think-tank, can be said to be more critical than the Manhattan Project, and quantitatively more humane than Mother Teresa's amazing work. What everyone seems to accept as natural and inevitable parts of the human condition are myths of inequity that are rooted in the way matter itself is put together, a way which is most unnatural and artificial. It is therefore at the level of matter that PROJECT MIND will primarily focus in the context of experimental conditions highly geared to the promotion of Accelerated Thought. ... 2 "Small visions lead to larger ones" so writes T.KUN, author of the book, "until the plasma-like flame of researcher-visionaries subjective consciousness begins to transform into a controlled fusion-type reaction which is the first

<p>A call for unconventional thinkers.

The following is Alilah Renwick's review of the book PROJECT MIND by T.Kun upon which the Project Mind Foundation is based. This review appeared in the spring 1994 issue of the newsletter of S.E.N., the Spiritual Emergence/Emergency Network based in Santa Cruz, CA. (S.E.N. assists those going through spiritual awakening and who are sometimes misdiagnosed as psychologically troubled). As children we are in touch with our essence, sure that all things are possible, until our spirits are crushed by society's imposition of a limited reality. According to T.Kun, the worst of all the lies we are fed by the dominant culture is the notion that death is a good and natural thing. PROJECT MIND is an explanation of Kun's world view and a call for unconventional thinkers who survived with some childlike vision intact. The project itself will create an environment free from distraction, a place where Accelerated Thought can flourish. Accelerated Thought is a "process driven by essential desire whereby the infinite intelligence latent in man finds expression through the rapid revelation of natural and cosmic secrets." The unlocking of these secrets will bring an end to war and hunger and will lead, ultimately, to physical and spiritual immortality. In PROJECT MIND, Kun described his personal process in coming to this vision, the set and setting of the project, and specific characteristics sought for participants. The book is written to recruit candidates for Accelerated Thought who will set this plan for world transformation in motion. Kun says, "It is about time the power of fanaticism was harnessed to benign and constructive ends."
