The Good The Bad The Funny

<p>Dualistic thinking presents us with a profound problem. The basic polarity of Good/Bad is the driving force behind most human conflict where a potentially fertile opposition crystallizes into enmity and the enemy becomes a “demon” totally evil and no longer qualified for human compassion or understanding. This is widely recognised and the traditional response is a “call to unity” – either in the form of a return to common basics or an advance towards an higher synthesis.</p><p>This book presents a different approach. It argues that unity even in the form of a higher synthesis is in essence a backward step that sacrifices the potential energy of duality for the peace and stasis of unity. What is really needed is a move forward: from dualistic to trinitarian thinking.</p><p>This approach is literally a “solution”. It is to seek a “third principle” an analog of Mercury or the “Universal Solvent” that transforms a polarised and frozen duality into a flowing and dynamic trinity. Pure conflict becomes transformed into a dance or game. It is to ask the question “how differently would we see this situation if we had been brought up in a theology of God Devil and Trickster (The Good The Bad The Funny)?”</p><p>The idea is explored in depth as a philosophy as a psychology as a practical way to heal the divisions in society and in our selves. The book provides practical suggestions for further work including an entire revolutionary magical system based on a trinitarian instead of the traditional fourfold model.</p><p>Previously only circulated in manuscript form to a select circle of friends this first public edition includes the full account of Ramsey Dukes' infamous "Cybermass of Thrice Greatest Data-Hermes". 285 pages with five chymical plates by Louise Hodson plus over 60 diagrams in text.</p>
