After 20 years of writing Psyche-Genetics, I am finally free to go adventuring again - this time into cyber-space.
With four teens in the house and four more on the verge, I posed as a teen, gave myself a cyber name, and ventured forth to gatecrash a teen forum called golivewire.com After a week of engaging in conversation with several score teens on the topic of Religion and Philosophy, I have decided to retreat and leave it to my own to do battle out there. It is a war zone of opinionated arrogance - reminding me far too uncomfortably of my own teen mind. I seriously doubt that any of my patient posts about God and Love have made one iota of difference. So from now on I will confine my venturing to adult forums and keep you posted if something extra-terrestrial happens.

What is the purpose of this psyche-genetics? I've briefly skimmed the material but find it incoherent, perhaps I'm just not bright enough.
My initial impression, which may well be far from correct, is that it's designed to sell books and such.

Hi praxis, welcome to the official Psyche-Genetics discussion forum. This forum is not so much for selling books but for discussing the Psyche-Genetic theory which can be read at www.psyche-genetics.org It is also to be a medium in which to discuss the concepts and ideas which are, indeed, presented within the newly published book Psyche-Genetics... if one has read it. Also it provides the opportunity to pick the brain of the author, S.W.P. Thanks for posting, and I hope that I have answered your question. Please feel free to inquire further.  |

Hello Lasher,
I was not referring to the purpose of the forum, that purpose is clear. I'm referring to the purpose of psyche-genetics. Do you know what the purpose of this is? For example, is the theory designed to explain things, like psychology, genetics, metaphysics, or existence? Or is it something that someone practices to improve themselves or conditions in the world? Or is it designed to simply sell books? I find it curious and telling that there is no clear introduction to this theory.
The first line of the theory states a completely incoherent thought: "Metaphysics is intrinsically fused with physics." Uh, doesn't that make it just plain old physical?
The second line: "An indeterminable charismatic potential flavors the radiation of nuclear energy." This line is vary lonely all by itself, do you know what I mean?
The third line: "This intangible emanation of conscious awareness is universally present." If it's intangible then how can it be known?
The rest seems to follow this pattern of short incoherent thoughts. I can only guess that there's no coherent synopsis anywhere to be found in this theory because none exists.

Hi again praxis. The purpose of Psyche-Genetics is to supply a methodology for measuring the health/dysfunction of the collective psyche and correlate that with the individual psyche. If the theory proves to be true it will provide psychiatrists with a valuable new tool for psychological measurement. The theory also outlines the entire evolution of human consciousness, from the Stone Age to the present, and via hindsight projects it into the future. It presents it’s conclusions in a revolutionary manner. As to the rest of your questions, you seem to be criticizing a general layout of the premises on which Psyche-Genetics is based. You need to examine the theory itself in order to appreciate the statements made in the premise. Of course we want to sell the book. The fundamental problem the book is struggling with is a deeply indoctrinated mindset that refuses to accept, or even entertain, any new approach to reality.
Hopefully the above explanation satisfies you. If the questions you asked still puzzle you, I’m sure the author will be quite pleased to answer them personally. I would suggest though, that your approach be a little more cordial. Questions and criticisms are always welcomed. I would also suggest that you use the website to become more informed before you frame questions and thereby show you entertain a genuine interest in the subject or I know he won’t take the time to respond.

All of us have spent our school lives being systematically indoctrinated with analytical data. The intuitive side of our psyche (right brain - artistic mode) has been largely left unsupervised and unexercised. There are several chapters in Psyche-Genetics that outline some of the right brain excersises one can do to evoke the powers of inspiration that are rusting inside you. Start on those chapters - do the exercises and then read the book again.

Why cant I make new threads on this forum? Seems a liitle odd, given that this is the pafe to talk to the author on.
Oh, and why psyche-genetics? Whats wrong with psychogenetics? I dont like that 'e' in there, it makes the word look kinda awkward. Ditto with the hyphen.

there are other deities of the mind/ soul, other than psyche. my favourites are hekate and medusa, but then i like powerful female beings.
given the scope of magnetmans ideas, wouldnt cosmogenetics be a suitable name?

That’s actually kinda a neat title autonomouse. Trippy. I like.  If you read Psyche-Genetics… the title truly fits though. The mind and body, the spiritual and the physical, individual and collective, cause and effect, yin and yang, left and right… the dual nature of being. Hey, that almost has a beat to it. Might need orbys help here. I like Persephone myself. Call me morbid. And Artemis. 50 hounds and 50 Dreiads. Of course you can’t beat Gaia. Nice to see you around again mouse. Oh, and there’s no scripted messages… I promise. |

my personal situation is of such that the book will have to come meeting me at some appropriate moment. until then it's intuition and desire on outreach. soul's expression on free thinking in joyous continuity has too often been very c-rudely interrupted. can become tiresome, don't judge me. from a creative excursion to persephone i eventually returned to another forum with what i thought should be a lovely x-mas present... www.poemhunter.com/poem/bavarian-gentians-3/maybe sharing it here is ok. |

I know many intangible things. in all seriousness, i would love to ask, do you refer to "intangible things" or untouchable interests? is there an ego at large trying to fake freedom vs. an intimidated and victimized "reason" to defend the former? \!! |
