A contemporary mystic, Shamcher Beorse views this vast scene through a lens of economics and full employment. He reveals artfully interwoven themes that all work together to show a complex picture of the forces and influences at play, including visualization, intuition and meditation. Shamcher had great compassion for those who are half awake in the body of humanity, and he worked tirelessly to expand horizons for all individuals and communities. In one glance the book reflects innumerable facets of our social communities and individual aspirations, all in the context of the need for social reform. Where does he suggest this reform comes from? Not from a revolution in the streets to restore or establish fair and equal opportunity, but from an implemented program ensuring full employment for all who want it.

Or as the author put it more simply: a survey of Western and Eastern Sciences. Ranging through various disciplines from Everyday Life, Art, Education, World Events and Mysticism, Beorse describes the evolution of humanity and the responsibilities of each of us in this process. Seen all together, they convey an image of the totality of the human endeavour: occurring both outside of time and in time, on schedule, as a great play. This comprehensive and refreshing picture is sorely needed at this time of narrow outlook and overspecialization, wrote the distinguished psychologist, educator and author, Dr. Philip B. Ballard. Inspired to write by the great sage, Inayat Khan, Beorse combined three former works into one for Man and This Mysterious Universe. Written during WI, then added to with new information, the book was first published in 1949. His previous work, Distribute or Destroy, had been in the field of economics. Beorse further widened his scope in this publication, whose title refers to the popular physics book by James Jeans, This Mysterious Universe. Here Beorse inserts humanity into this assessment of a universe of vibrations and events, creating Man and This Mysterious Universe. There is no great difference between rock, a tree, a man or a loving thought carving its way through the universe like a ray of the sun.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52740657676561,"sku":"NIN9780978348571","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780978348571.jpg?v=1786129756"},{"product_id":"planet-earth-demands-book-carol-sill-9780978170592","title":"Planet Earth Demands","description":"Economist, engineer, generalist and mystic, Shamcher Bryn Beorse, reveals his comprehensive overview of the forces and influences shaping humanity in the latter half of the 20th century. Concerned with the fate of the earth environmentally, socially and politically, he offered both advice and warning, peppered with personal anecdotes. The cry of mother earth, the complexity of social issues, and the needs and desires of human beings living in this world today all combine in Beorse's bird's eye view. This expanded and all-inclusive vision of the cry of the earth is as important today as when it was written nearly 40 years ago. What seemed radical at that time is commonplace today - an awareness of the totality of the environment including ourselves as well as the development of the inner life. In Beorse's world-view there is no separation between the areas of energy, economics, employment, the individual's pursuit of happiness and his own personal life-experiences. He subtly includes the spiritual life, touching on yoga and Sufi thought and practice as necessary and meaningful tools to address our current problems - not only at a personal level, but in the areas of city life, the environment, education and the media. It was his love of this life and of this precarious human experiment that urged him to write and add his voice to the increasingly urgent call of our planet. -Planet Earth, itself, now demands what the sages and prophets shouted in vain.- Book website at planet-earth.shamcher.com","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53251494510865,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53251494641937,"sku":"NIN9780978170592","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780978170592.jpg?v=1773584668"},{"product_id":"distribute-or-destroy-book-carol-sill-9780978348564","title":"Distribute or Destroy","description":"Experimental Economic Theories: An Energy Theory of Wealth, Technocracy, Social Credit, Stable Money and Barter Systems by Shamcher Bryn Beorse (Brynjolf Bjorset) Now, almost 100 years since some of these theories were first drafted, we can look with fresh eyes at the ideas that were emerging in those tumultuous times after the first World War. Rapidly increasing production power, expanding industrial output and the revolution in electric power met both left- and right-wing political ideologies in an arena of war debt and post-war shock. The Great Depression caused economists the world over to re-examine the economic cycles of the century past. New fermenting ideas were everywhere. Combining the work of various heretical economists into one accessible volume, this book by Brynjolf Bjorset (aka Bryn Beorse) leads up to a tested Scandinavian economic experiment: Nordic Clearing, which was established during the Depression as a bridge to a new applied economy. Behind it was a radical overview dedicated to rethinking the nature of money, particularly in the climate after WI. When asked to outline the basic work of the best known new economists of the day who offered an assessment of the situation of poverty in the midst of plenty, Beorse produced Efter Oss Kommer Overfloden (After Us the Glut), his world economic survey (published by Aschehoug in Norway in 1934.) It was immediately translated into English, and released in Britain and the US as Distribute or Destroy, subtitled A Survey of the World's Glut of Goods with a Description of Various Proposals and Practical Experiments for its Distribution. This is the book that brought the young civil engineer, Brynjolf Bjorset, on to the world stage as a firebrand economic thinker who applied radical theories for the greater good.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53351822262545,"sku":"NIN9780978348564","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780978348564.jpg?v=1774710648"},{"product_id":"fairy-tales-are-true-book-carol-sill-9780978348557","title":"Fairy Tales are True","description":"Welcome to the world in which fairy tales are true, where the prominent scientists of the day join together to seek wisdom from a great sage of the Himalayas at the fabled Kumbha Mela. Guided by a trusted myth-spinning storyteller, their journey and its preparation are peppered with tales of metaphysical adventures. From the bohemian Shangri-La of the Oceano Dunes to the ancient Ganges flowing from Himalayan heights, the group travels and discovers the realm of silent reach. In the tradition of metaphysical fiction that was popular in the 1920's and 30s, Fairy Tales are True sweeps the reader into a vortex of yogis, scientists, spies and fools. Unlike most of those forgotten novels of secret universal Buddhist brotherhoods and mystical Tibetan quests, this book is more than partly true. Bryn Beorse, who was known to the Sufis as Shamcher, was the real deal: an actual world-travelling yogi-sufi who also was an esteemed economist and engineer. Here he has created a fantastical autobiographical allegory in a book that defies categorization. As one long teaching story comprised of nested teaching stories, Beorse's book may take liberties with facts to illustrate truths, but not as often as you might think. It is not only autobiographical, it is also a novelized or storified account of concepts that cannot be easily grasped by the literal mind. From California pre-hippy communes of eighty years ago, to the mysterious convening of the sages in modern-day India, this story sweeps the reader along following the secret thread whose strands have held mankind together for the last few thousand years. Visits to simple villagers with amazing powers alternate with the adventures of an expedition of the world's most important scientists, as Bryn Beorse takes us into the inner sanctums of our own everyday world.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53357097517329,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53357097812241,"sku":"NIN9780978348557","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780978348557.jpg?v=1786135581"},{"product_id":"social-research-foundation-documentary-print-book-carol-sill-9780978170516","title":"The Social Research Foundation Documentary Print","description":"Documentary Print includes THE SOCIAL RESEARCH FOUNDATION INTERIM REPORT DOCUMENT ON LIVING IN THE FUTURE and THE HILL TRIBE REPORT I was writing this at a cusp of societal change, when the introduction of the computer society was about to enter the personal realm, radically reorganizing everyone's way of life. I see it as a cry of the heart as it is being submerged by the analytical and ultimately bureaucratic forces of that coming new era. - Carol Sill HIGH GRADE INFORMATION Those who read Social Research report documents such as this tend to search for high-grade unused information which has not yet been attractively packaged. Nevertheless, this particular document is, in fact, ushering in a new era of report documentation, particularly as it applies to the Social Research eld. No longer will the social researcher be taxed with pages of undigested data. By taking a comprehensive subjective view, the SRF has leapt into the wide new eld of Personalization. This affords vast resources of data, already attractively packaged in a personalized form. Thus, subjectivity creates high-grade information. Even when the original data sources are common knowledge personal ltration of Social Research data transforms low-grade multi-use information into high-grade special interest information with the bonus of attractive packaging. Recycled informational components can reappear again and again without causing Fresh Mind Exhaustion thanks to the personalization of the subjective view. - from The Social Research Foundation Interim Report Carol Sill wrote this book episodically and by hand in the early 1980's, before the personal computer, well before the internet's world wide web, and long before blogs and the rise of social media. It was intended to be a real-time document of interior processes, with a few excursions into description of exterior events. It is published here as it was originally written. Over the years this odd document has proven to be somewhat prophetic, predicting, the rise of individual and public reporting on an unimagined scale via social media. Maybe researchers did enter the future  It was those resonances, combined with a desire to share this writing, that encouraged this edition. In 1985 Sill self-published a photocopied version with hand-stitched binding, but, like the SRF documents described in the book, the few that remained were stored for years in containers, unseen.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53376949420305,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53376949518609,"sku":"NIN9780978170516","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780978170516.jpg?v=1786119593"},{"product_id":"human-ecology-book-carol-sill-9780978170561","title":"Human Ecology","description":"An understanding of the elements as a foundation for mystical study can be seen in all major traditions around the world. In the Eastern yoga and Sufi traditions and Western mysticism, the elements are key to knowledge of awareness of breath and the manifestations of life. This book involves an examination of the elements as outlined in the Sufi teachings of Pir-O-Murshid Inayat Khan, and in their relationships demonstrated through the Sacred Element Ceremony. It was written as an exploration and selfstudy. A cohesive spiritual alchemy of the present times is expressed in the Sacred Element work and the depth understanding of the five elements. Presently, the yearning for spiritual understanding has shifted in North America to become a desire to go to the root of things. Sacred Element work reveals itself to be a mature western version of one such root teaching, through which the spiritual life of humanity can be renewed. INSIDE: - An examination of the elements Earth, Water, Fire, Air, and Ether as seen in direction, colour and breath. - A connection between the Greek Mysteries and the work of esoteric symbolical activities. - Reflections on the Sufi Element Ceremony and its value as a harmonizing influence in these times. - An awakening to the retrieval of element understanding that has been lost down through the ages.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53380937515281,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":53380938563857,"sku":"NIN9780978170561","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9780978170561.jpg?v=1786119309"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-carol-sill.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
