»There was no wind to move the eerie matter, and with growing horror Connor realized that it must be alive itself. There was no other explanation for the way it could otherwise wriggle forward and coil around the coat rack like a black snake until it threatened to swallow O'Reilly's arms. Blind white eyes erupted like boils on the black surface, rolling back and forth madly. O'Reilly's mouth contorted, his jaw drawing almost silently. He looked helpless, but continued to hold the coat rack tightly in his hands. But it wasn't the thing that resembled a black snake that made him scream. It was something else that flowed through the portal like slime; a murky mass that flooded the attic, boiling and bubbling like sulfuric acid.« Michael Minnis has subordinated many of his stories and novellas entirely to the cosmos of H. P. Lovecraft, and he succeeds in doing so in a workmanlike manner. The novellas and stories included in this volume reflect the author's interest in Lovecraft's spaces, times, and places, whether they come across as dark fantasy or as tales of the early days of the Wild West. Kadath, Leng, Arkham or Innsmouth - Michael Minnis takes the reader by the hand and leads him to the settings of his great role model. [more]

Meditations is a series of writings by Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor 161–180 CE, setting forth his ideas on Stoic philosophy. A central theme to "Meditations" is to analyze your judgement of self and others and developing a cosmic perspective. As he said "You have the power to strip away many superfluous troubles located wholly in your judgement, and to possess a large room for yourself embracing in thought the whole cosmos, to consider everlasting time, to think of the rapid change in the parts of each thing, of how short it is from birth until dissolution, and how the void before birth and that after dissolution are equally infinite". He advocates finding one's place in the universe and sees that everything came from nature, and so everything shall return to it in due time. It seems at some points in his work that we are all part of a greater construct thus taking a collectivist approach rather than having an individualist perspective. Another strong theme is of maintaining focus and to be without distraction all the while maintaining strong ethical principles such as "Being a good man". His Stoic ideas often involve avoiding indulgence in sensory affections, a skill which will free a man from the pains and pleasures of the material world. He claims that the only way a man can be harmed by others is to allow his reaction to overpower him. An order or logos permeates existence. Rationality and clear-mindedness allow one to live in harmony with the logos. [more]

An Agenda for Human Transformation

Stagnate as a 'creepy caterpillar' or transform into a 'beauteous butterfly'-this path-breaking book of a rare genre suggests-is the seminal choice before mankind, and every one of us. In this setting, the book raises some fundamental questions: What is man's rightful place in the cosmos and his manifest destiny on earth? Why are we so self-righteously self-destructive? Are we a doomed species? Or 'divine' beings struggling to overcome the hubris of the human intellect? Is God getting weary of mankind? How should we synergize human effort and Divine Grace? The book posits that any betterment in human behavior needs a cathartic change at the deepest levels. That requires diluting the dominance of the mind and reawakening the long-dormant intelligence of the human heart. To meet that challenge, we need minimum numbers, a 'critical mass' to create self-sustained momentum for transformation through consciousness change. And every single human of this generation should behave in such a way that he or she is that single person whose transformation could make the decisive species-scale difference. The book offers a menu of ideas and an agenda of action. This book could be itself become an input to mobilize that very 'critical mass' it advocates for human transformation. Well-planned and cohesively written, the book is noteworthy for its delightful blend of information and arguments, and reveals the depth of the author’s understanding of the human predicament... This is a closely argued and thought-provoking book... The Hindu, 13 Sept 2011 [This book] is a gripping exposition on human nature and self-transformation without preference to religion... Challa has critically provided a foundational argument for a deeper discussion of philosophical and practical ideals concerning self-transformation... harmonizing the head and the heart is the way for humans to function as spiritual beings. Recommended by the USR. The US Review of Books [The author] reflects upon the crisis of contemporary civilizations and outlines a blueprint for a new world order based on progressive spiritual values and change of human consciousness. The strength of this treatise is the sweep of Challa’s reach and his treatment of a vastly complex set of issues that bedevil humankind today... India International Center Quarterly, Summer 2012 As a thinker and erudite scholar, [the author] has made a profound study of the world situation and the moral decadence of man... [This book] deserves to be on the shelves of university, college and public libraries... Triveni Magazine, July–Sept 2011 It is difficult to pigeon-hole this book as... a ‘prophetic discourse’, a ‘journey into the human mind’, a ‘guide for human survival’, a ‘spiritual treatise’. It is an amalgam of all these and more... the volume reaches out to those who are already uneasy about the way we on this earth are progressing. The Book Review, India, June 2013 [more]

Four forces create all realities but what crafts humanity’s worst criminalized-depraved-brutal actualities? Fifth Force hypothesis seeks to decipher ‘mystical code’ that plays out harmonious-melodious probabilities; supplanting them over discordant-cacophonous propensities in human world, lives. It revisits fundamentals of life-living; especially relationships, to install lasting bliss, fruition. Fifth Force premise journeys beyond populist perceptions of good-bad, right-wrong, success, morality, even meanings and experiences; to unravel probability of a ‘Cosmic Causality’, pervading and embedded in consciousness as well as in building blocks of reality, which installs and sustains aesthetics and homeostatic synergy in emergent realities. It diagnoses pathologies; seeks code of vitality. This eBook delves into the spectrum of reality, in a novel and alternative way; as facilitated by modern contemporary scientific knowledge of the mechanisms and processes of all realities. The Fifth Force metaphor attempts to deliberate on the cosmic construct of the criminality-depravity-hypocrisy-deception-shamelessness-brutality-insanity of contemporary humanity and in turn discover the missing element and dimension, which have potentials of nobility-amiability-mutuality-magnanimity-sincerity-fraternity. It also inquires the processes of emergence of realities within human body-brain mechanism as well as in external milieus of society-cultures, to ascertain where and how realities get aligned to discord-cacophony, instead of harmony-melody. This Fifth Force enterprise is aimed at bringing to deliberation the reality that since ages, we all have been used to accepting meanings in a definitive way and restricted to some experiences, dominant in popular cultures and it is high time we revisit them and accept novel and alternative dimensions about them. We must revisit the earliest landscapes of brains as well as consciousness to unravel true and unadulterated feel of experiences, as they engender in brain states, representing meanings, through metaphors. We must revisit all meanings; which we take for granted and seldom think about their true nature. We must revisit critical ideas and feels of morality, aesthetics, melody, harmony, poise, emotions, righteousness, et al. This revisiting is a two-way process – first we need to unlearn this age-old and innate subconscious habit of accepting populist and intuitive meanings and experiences and secondly; we must then learn and accept a novel and alternative meanings and experiential realities, as propounded and enunciated by modern science. It is a humble and simple hypothesis that probably contemporary humanity is in such calamitous shape and spirit because of our old, archaic, obsolete and partial perceptions about life-living realities, realities of Self and Reality of the cosmos as a whole. That is why I continue to write about probable novel and alternative meanings and experiences, so that you embark on this new journey, which contemporary science beckons you to. This is the road to neo-spiritualism as knowledge is true divinity. This is the definitive journey towards the optimization of your true potentials. All meanings as well as experiences in life-living must always align to potential optimization. Thanks. Welcome. [more]
