Softcover. Condizione: Wie neu. Ein Buch wie das vorliegende bedarf schon wegen seines ungewöhnlichen Titels einer Einführung. Das Werk hat bei seinem ersten Erscheinen in Amerika einen großen Erfolg gehabt und erreichte sehr bald eine hohe Auflagenziffer. Es erscheint verwunderlich, dass ein Buch, welches in Amerika so begehrt wurde, in Deutschland nach 20 Jahren weder im Original noch in der Übersetzung zu finden war, denn zweifellos hat das Werk in den abgelaufenen Jahren an Aktualität gewonnen. Unsere erste Bekanntschaft mit dem Werke hat sofort den Wunsch wach werden lassen, es trotz offenkundiger Unvollständigkeiten (die dem Verfasser, wie er selbst schreibt, voll bewusst sind) ins Deutsche zu übertragen. Der Autor des „Kosmischen Bewusstseins", der kanadische Arzt Dr. Richard M. Bucke (1837 - 1902) machte den Versuch, die auffallende Übereinstimmung in der geistigen Einstellung aller großen Menschheitsführer zu zeigen. Er macht den Versuch, das Vorhandensein einer Bewusstseinslage zu beweisen, die er das „Kosmische Bewusstsein" nennt. Der erste Teil des Buches, den wir aus Gründen, die wir weiter unten anführen, stark gekürzt haben, lässt deutlich die monistische, von Darwin herrührende Einstellung der letzten Jahrzehnte des 19. Jahrhunderts erkennen. Der Verfasser, ein echter Naturforscher, begründet seine Anschauungen, indem er die Entwicklung des Bewusstseins biologisch durch alle Stufen organischen Lebens schildert. …

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Cosmic Consciousness: A Study in the Evolution of the Human Mind is Richard Bucke's theory that our mental states are evolving and that to date we have experienced three stages in the development of consciousness: the 'simple consciousness' of animals, the 'self-consciousness' of the vast majority of humans (reason, self awareness, imagination, etc.), and in some cases 'cosmic consciousness'; a mystical state of being beyond 'self consciousness' and the next stage of human development.Bucke hypothesized that 'cosmic consciousness' is slowly beginning to appear in humans and will eventually spread widely throughout the human race. He posited that certain notable individuals throughout history have demonstrated that they have attained 'cosmic consciousness'.In the book he cites examples such as Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Dante, St Paul, Francis Bacon, William Blake, and his close friend Walt Whitman. Whitman, an American poet and journalist described cosmic consciousness as 'ineffable light, light rare, untellable, light beyond all signs, descriptions and languages.'At the age of thirty-five Bucke found himself in this elevated mental state and he describes (in the third person) the manifestations leading up to it;'1. The person, suddenly, without warning, has a sense of being immersed in a flame, or rose-colored cloud, or perhaps rather a sense that the mind is itself filled with such a cloud of haze.2. At the same instant he is, as it were, bathed in an emotion of joy, assurance, triumph, salvation.3. Simultaneously or instantly following the above sense and emotional experiences there comes to the person an intellectual illumination quite impossible to describe. Like a flash there is presented to his consciousness a clear conception (a vision) in outline of the meaning and drift of the universe. He does not come to believe merely; but he sees and knows that the cosmos, which to the self conscious mind seems made up of dead matter, is in fact far otherwise-is in very truth a living presence. He sees that instead of men being, as it were, patches of life scattered through an infinite sea of non-living substance, they are in reality specks of relative death in an infinite ocean of life. He sees that the life which is in man is eternal, as all life is eternal; that the soul of man is as immortal as God is; that the universe is so built and ordered that without any peradventure all things work together for the good of each and all; that the foundation principle of the world is what we call love, and that the happiness of every individual is in the long run absolutely certain.'He goes on to say'The person who passes through this experience will learn in the few minutes, or even moments, of its continuance more than in months or years of study, and he will learn much that no study ever taught or can teach.'After reading Bucke's writings, P. D. Ouspensky, the respected Russian Philosopher echoed his comments in his book Tertium Organum;'Cosmic Consciousness is a third form, which is as far above Self Consciousness as is that above Simple Consciousness. The prime characteristic Cosmic Consciousness is, as its name implies, a consciousness of the cosmos, that is, of the life and order of the universe. Along with the consciousness of the cosmos there occurs an intellectual enlightenment or illumination which alone would place the individual on a new plane of existence-would make him almost a member of a new species.'.…

Buch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Wildly arrogant, stunningly bombastic, and undeniably fascinating. This 1901 work-the masterpiece of an eclectic genius whose life encompassed medical science, mystical transcendence, and prospecting for gold-posits a higher form of sentience that only a few humans have ever achieved, among them Jesus, Buddha, Mohammed, Dante, William Blake, and the author himself, of course. As Bucke shares his metaphysical experience of the 'cosmic consciousness' and offers evidence for the few instances in history of its occurrence ('it may as well be frankly stated at once that the view of the present editor is that Francis Bacon wrote the 'Shakespeare' plays and poems'), the reader may well be moved to throw this bizarre and highly intriguing book furiously across the room. if the reader can put it down at all, that is.Canadian mystic and doctor RICHARD MAURICE BUCKE (1837-1902) was a pioneer in the medical treatment of mental illness; his famous friendship with Walt Whitman was the subject of the 1992 movie Beautiful Dreamers. He also wrote Man's Moral Nature (1879) and an 1883 authorized biography of Whitman.…
