About the Book
This book empowers the reader to awaken his inner power by providing psychological and metaphysical tools for improving their life. Humans should undertake the power dwelling in them and become active co-creators of their personal and social environment. The book is a necessary component in a materialistic post-modern consumeristic society. It focuses on removing the self-loathing ideas imposed by religious organizations and mass media. Moreover, it offers a plausible and coherent theory that answers the old-honored predicament of finding the true purpose of human existence. Blending ideas from philosophers with the popular wisdom of native folklore, Occidental and Oriental sacred scriptures, sociology, metaphysics, philosophy (existentialism), and modern quantum physics, this book reveals that humans should actively participate in the awakening of their consciousness. Having no purpose in life can lead people to a deep psychological depression called existential anxiety. Thus, ignoring the role of man’s importance in the drama of the universe, the lack of a myth or meaning could be tragic and detrimental. Since the dawn of civilization, humans have taken for granted or assumed that they had an inherent purpose in life by being born, which turned out to be a big fallacy. In addition, humans have been brainwashed and domesticated by false ideas creating a herd mentality by the ruling elite. Under these circumstances, how do we humans find authentic meaning in what seems to be a senseless life? Modern philosophy has become increasingly abstract and separate from human beings, unable to offer positive guidance to ordinary people. Finding a purpose in human existence is the primary motivational force for human existence. The ultimate purpose of human existence is to become a conscious god.
