I believe his books were originally published in French. The publisher is Inner Traditions. Check their website.

As far as General Zard's post, I imagine that only in a time of peak stress did you reach an appropriate threshold to initiate (or at least perceive) a hallucinations.

Smove has a good point. I think that under short periods of intense stress or maybe after long periods of chronic stress, our ...

Your post is neither weak, nor juvenile. We are all looking for the truth. I dont have time to respond fully at the moment but I look forward to discussing this in more detail soon.

There is Esoterism & Symbol which is short and will introduce you to his ideas of the innate intelligence that, in my opinion, is the source of Jaynes' auditory hallucinations. He discusses language and consciousness and explains how hieroglyphic language provides the opportunity for depth, richness ...

R.A. Schwaller de Lubicz, in his many works on ancient Egypt, describes a mentality which the AEs called "the intelligence of the heart." This intelligence is non-linear, abstract, and is the opposite of our current rational (black & white) analytical intelligence. I am convinced that this ...

It is natural that each person sees the world through the lens of their own personal experience. In the US there are over 4,600 denominations of Christianity alone, so there is diversity even within what appears to be a large homogenous group.

First, make her read Blink! by Malcolm Gladwell. It is short, easy to read and understand, and it will lay the foundation for what is to come. Simple premise is that there are 2 parallel methods of thinking, one we are aware of, and one that we have limited access to. Once you reach that point, it ...

Mr. Peake,

If I am not mistaken, I received a newsletter in the mail in which you are mentioned. I once contacted Dolores Cannon about regressive hypnosis and she put me on the mailing list and I could have sworn that you were listed as a speaker on a "conference cruise" that is coming up. Maybe I ...

Zoro,

Welcome. I haven't been here much in the last year, but with the new book on the way to my house, I think I will be reading and posting more. I am an architect, but I have many interests other than that. I hope you continue posting and I look forward to the conversations.

take care ...

OC,

I don't actually remember the imaginary friend, I only know of it through conversations with my parents. Once, I made my mother turn around and go back home (we were 2 blocks from home) because we had left Bombo (his name, apparently). We pulled up to our apartment, opened the door, he got in ...

I read a book written by a lady who suffered from schizophrenia throughout college and medical school. She went on to become a doctor and she was able to describe in detail what it was like to suffer from this disease. Interestingly enough, she was helped by dialysis, which led me to believe that a ...

Interesting article which reminds me of the brain stimulation experiments which caused patients to hear voices.

I have an infant daughter and I would like to find more information concerning Jaynes thoughts on imaginary friends and how they relate to his theory. Both I and my wife had imaginary friends, so I would expect that my daughter might as well. I intend to encourage her in this matter and I look ...
