  This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
   
  What you are about to hear is life changing. It will shock you and cause fear. The way you look at life will change. You may think some of it is from the realm of science fiction. You may not. The fact is this, what you are about to hear is the truth. 
   
  It is time to forget about the illuminati or the Freemasons. Time to drop the ideas of a global and all powerful secret society. Your political leaders are not those in control. The world's most powerful religions, businesses and military all fade into insignificance when compared to the real truth about the manipulation of mankind on planet earth. 
   
  We have in fact created our own ultimate nightmare and things are about to get a lot worse. We will all have one decision to make. We either do as we are told, or we will perish. This is your future. It is a future so far removed from the lives of our ancestors that it can only be called unnatural. 
   
  In all of our attempts to free ourselves from the constraints of a chaotic mind, we have in fact created a multi-headed monster that is about to bite off our heads and replace them with heads of its own. You will no longer be human. No longer free. You will be controlled by the most powerful, complex and terrifying system man could ever imagine into existence.

  Cannibal Capitalism - How our...

  A trenchant look at contemporary capitalism's insatiable appetite—and a rallying cry for everyone who wants to stop it from devouring our world 
   
   
   
  Capital is currently cannibalizing every sphere of life—guzzling wealth from nature and racialized populations, sucking up our ability to care for each other, and gutting the practice of politics. In this tightly argued and urgent volume, leading Marxist feminist theorist Nancy Fraser charts the voracious appetite of capital, tracking it from crisis point to crisis point, from ecological devastation to the collapse of democracy, from racial violence to the devaluing of care work. These crisis points all come to a head in Covid-19, which Fraser argues can help us envision the resistance we need to end the feeding frenzy. 
   
   
   
  What we need, she argues, is a wide-ranging socialist movement that can recognize the rapaciousness of capital—and starve it to death.

  Democritus - Atoms and the Birth...

  Democritus, often referred to as the "laughing philosopher," was a pre-Socratic Greek philosopher who is best known for his atomic theory of the universe. His ideas have significantly shaped modern science, especially in physics and chemistry. Democritus proposed that everything in the universe is made up of small, indivisible particles called atoms. These atoms are eternal, unchangeable, and infinite in number, differing only in shape, size, and arrangement. He was a strong proponent of materialism, the idea that everything that exists is composed of matter and that the properties of the world can be explained by the properties and interactions of atoms. 
  In addition to his contributions to atomic theory, Democritus also made significant contributions to epistemology, the study of knowledge. He suggested that our senses are the primary means by which we perceive the world, though they can sometimes be deceptive. His ideas influenced many later philosophers, including Leucippus, Epicurus, and even modern scientists like John Dalton, whose 19th-century atomic theory was inspired by Democritus's concepts. 
  Despite the lack of direct empirical evidence in his time, Democritus's theories laid the groundwork for the development of scientific thought and inquiry. He emphasized reason and observation over mythological explanations, helping to shape the way we understand the material world. Though much of his work has been lost to history, Democritus's legacy endures, continuing to inspire scientific exploration and contributing to our understanding of the universe.

  Imagination - A Very Short...

  Imagination: A Very Short Introduction explores imagination as a cognitive power and an essential dimension of human flourishing, demonstrating how imagination plays multiple roles in human cognition and shapes humanity in profound ways. Examining philosophical, evolutionary, and literary perspectives on imagination, the author shows how this facility, while potentially distorting, both frees us from immediate reality and enriches our sense of it, making possible our experience of a meaningful world. Long regarded by philosophers as an elusive and mysterious capacity of the human mind, imagination has been the subject of extraordinary ambivalence, described as both dangerous and divine, as merely peripheral to rationality and as essential to all thinking. Drawing on philosophy, aesthetics, literary and cognitive theory, as well as the human sciences, this book engages the dramatic conceptual history of imagination together with contemporary explanations of its role in cognition to explain its importance in everyday life as well as the exquisite creativity of the arts, scientific discovery, and invention. Engaging examples from cave paintings to modern painting, performance art to pop art, physics to phenomenology, technological inventions to literary worlds, the Nazca geoglyphs to dramatic theater, poetry, and jazz improvisation, the author illuminates with clarity and vision the philosophy of imagination and the stakes of its involvement in human thinking.

  It is only a very silent mind that can actually see - 30 May 1967 
  - Conflict exists only when there are two opposing things: fear and non-fear,violence and non-violence. 
  - A mind that is in a state of inquiry is entirely different from a mind that is seeking. Seeking implies effort, conformity, authority and therefore conflict.  
  - Without space in which there is no boundary, the mind is incapable of comingupon immeasurable reality. 
  - It is only a silent mind that can perceive, actually see, not a chattering mind, acontrolled mind, a mind that is tortured, suppressed, yielding or indulging. 
  - When one has totally denied the psychological world which man has created,and the psychological structure of society of which we are, then there is spaceand silence. 
  - Q: Could you de ne contemplation and meditation? 
  - Q: It is not possible ever to observe totally one's own irrational thoughts. 
  - Q: What does it mean to stand alone?
