  Is it possible to renew the mind? - 24 May 1967 
  • When the mind is living through imagination and thought, it is incapable of 
  living in the complete fullness of the present. 
  • Thought has created time, not chronological time but psychological time. That 
  is, ‘I will be,’ ‘I should be.’ 
  • Is it possible for the brain to be quiet, to give an interval between the old and 
  the new? This interval is the timeless nature in which thought cannot possibly 
  enter. 
  • That which has continuity is repetitive, which is time. It’s only when time 
  comes to an end there is something new taking place. 
  • To die every day to every problem, every pleasure, and not carry over any 
  problem at all; so the mind remains tremendously attentive, active, clear. 
  • Since love is not desire or pleasure, how does one come upon it? 
  • Q: Is the feeling of responsibility a part of the order and discipline you were 
  talking about? 
  • Q: Why don’t people get angry with what you are saying?

  In the Socrates Meets series, Peter Kreeft revives the classic method of bringing philosophy to life through dialogue. In eight innovative volumes, he uncovers the principles, assumptions, and sometimes dangerous conclusions of some of history’s most influential minds.  Each dialogue imagines a purgatory where we can listen in on conversations between Socrates and the great thinkers who, centuries later, picked up the philosopher’s torch. Each conversation investigates one of the philosopher’s key works, a short, readable classic that raises central questions both for philosophy and for life. In this volume, Socrates cross-examines René Descartes, the father of modern philosophy and author of the Discourse on Method, exploring the certainty of human knowledge.

  Science, not speculative philosophy, is the only guide, however imperfect, to the nature of existence. Science culture uses and supports science. The social brain experiences free will and needs religious faith. Empathy is a choice based on intuition. We need a better scientific understanding of dogma and chauvinism, and this book explores these issues. It also describes the Crisis of the Anthropocene, described in under a hundred pages, is a wakeup that needs to overcome ignorance and naïve optimism, and reach our deepest emotions. Topics include climate change, biodiversity, pollutants, population, and political causes behind the collapse. This book also presents data from Internationalcomparisons.org that demonstrates that the US is neither advanced nor a democracy and has failed to deal with guns, reproductive rights, taxation, social welfare, fiscal discipline, and other issues. Even with these already significant problems Americans must face, there is even more: Trumpism and Putinism are existential threats to American freedom and democracy. This book presents a framework for others to act in the time of these issues.

  Obedience - The Willing Follow -...

  Obedience, at its core, is the act of aligning one’s actions with a higher authority or divine purpose. It is not merely the submission to rules or commands, but a conscious choice to follow the guidance of a force greater than oneself. In the context of spiritual growth, obedience is deeply intertwined with faith, trust, and surrender. It requires an individual to recognize that there is wisdom beyond their understanding and that, by following divine guidance, they are led to a path of fulfillment and purpose. 
  The true essence of obedience goes beyond blind submission. It is an active decision to place one’s will in alignment with divine will, acknowledging that this alignment leads to a more harmonious and meaningful existence. It calls for humility, as one must be willing to accept that their personal desires, while valid, may not always align with the greater plan. This humility allows individuals to move away from a sense of ego-driven control and step into a flow where they are led by wisdom that is both timeless and profound. 
  Faith is a foundational element of obedience. When one trusts in a higher purpose, they are more likely to act in accordance with divine will, even when the path ahead is unclear or difficult. This trust creates a foundation for obedience that is not rooted in fear or obligation but in the understanding that divine guidance is always for the highest good, even if it does not immediately make sense to the individual.

Drawing from his experiences as a psychiatrist during the Algerian War of Independence, Fanon explores the psychological trauma inflicted by colonial rule and the violent upheaval necessary to reclaim dignity and self-determination. With passionate clarity, he critiques the failures of postcolonial leadership and urges a radical restructuring of society led by the oppressed. Originally published in 1961 with a preface by Jean-Paul Sartre, this landmark work has influenced generations of activists, scholars, and freedom fighters, making it an enduring cornerstone of anti-colonial thought and global liberation movements.
