Since Nietzsche, the history of philosophy has been about overcoming itself - what Wittgenstein and Heidegger referred to as the "End of Philosophy." A contemporary of these two was Jean Gebser, whose pivotal role in concluding the whole process is still largely unknown. Heidegger went beyond conventional philosophy to explore the nature of thinking itself: "To think is to confine yourself to a single thought that one day stands still like a star in the world's sky."

Produktbeschreibung
Since Nietzsche, the history of philosophy has been about overcoming itself - what Wittgenstein and Heidegger referred to as the "End of Philosophy." A contemporary of these two was Jean Gebser, whose pivotal role in concluding the whole process is still largely unknown. Heidegger went beyond conventional philosophy to explore the nature of thinking itself: "To think is to confine yourself to a single thought that one day stands still like a star in the world's sky." Based on Heidegger's instructions and armed with the Buddhist notion of Sunyata (Emptiness), Christian Reinhardt translates this "star" into an exact formula: everything/nothing. The author dives deeply into the foundations of Emptiness and, in the process, reveals the link between Heidegger, Gebser, Buddhism and the essence of awareness. Above the level of the intellect stands the relatively unexplored realm of the intuition, direct "aperceptual" experience and the ineffable source of all reality which is Emptiness. Reinhardt takes an unapologetic swipe at pedagogy, dismantling what stands today for education. The implications promise to transform both the humanities and science, and especially the fields of psychology and philosophy. He delivers an original yet sardonic contemporary testimony.

Autorenporträt
Christian Reinhardt was born in Mannheim, Germany and has lived his life in Munich in the quiet study of the Ageless Wisdom Tradition (Alice Bailey & Benjamin Creme). What began as a 'truthseeker' led to a life of service with his primary influences being the emergence of Maitreya, the World Teacher, and the Masters of the Wisdom alongside the practice of Transmission Meditation since 1987. He also received a Masters degree at the University Munich with studies in Sinology, Philosophy and Religious Studies. He currently lives and continues to write in Munich, and enjoys long walks through the English Garden. His first book was published in German (2004) by Novalis under the title Das Polare Paradox and is reprinted here in English by Vedanta Publishing under the title The Existence Paradox and the Ineffable Nature of Reality. While he loves children and took care of many he's absolutely in accordance with the will of providence to have none of his own.
