Love and Pain
About this book
[The Collected Works of Thaddeus Golas Vol.3 - From Seed Center Books]Love and Pain - A Map of Consciousness. The Collected Works of Thaddeus Golas Vol. 3 A follow-up to The Lazy Mans Guide to Enlightenment or perhaps a final revision to it. The Guide is still very significant to all those who sense the consciousness with which it was written but Thaddeus goes deeper with this new writing; he wanted leave behind a blueprint of his metaphysics that would withstand the test of time, beyond the euphoria of the '60s. He was, after all, a self-described hard-nosed critic of the many charlatans of the New Age; he didn't settle for benign therapies that passed for 'spirituality.' For all the comfort that an uplifting book can bring to our imagination, Thaddeus Golas wanted to write a text that he would like to find for himself, or give to a good friend; information that is solid, and that can be relied upon, even when the Universe fails to sustain all our fondly held beliefs about it. "I am a destroyer of ideas," he proposed, "and whatever I could not destroy is in Love and Pain." Love and Pain is a major work, intricate and subtle. It is an audit of our beliefs, and a wake-up call. It is also revolutionary! In time, it may come to be seen as one of the most important metaphysical books ever written; it is sure, at the very least, to illicit strong reactions from readers.
