Another book, in 2020, seemed to need a new category. It’s a bit different from “Reflections on experience”, and a bit bigger than “Ethics”. Is it a commitment to start writing books about the bigger picture of life? Who knows? But this book had to be written - “FUTURE”.

FUTURE: The Spiritual Story of Humanity
Histories of the world are generally written either to celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
FUTURE is the spiritual story of humanity. There are many books which are histories of humanity; they are different depending on the point of view of the author. Many authors are excited about the human adventure, and enthused by exploration, empires, wars and progress. Others anticipate catastrophe because of population, capitalism and technology, and their effect on the Earth’s ecology.
This book approaches the question from a spiritual perspective, looking at human behaviour and what we can learn from past civilisations and from religions. It explores the question of ancient knowledge, and looks at contemporary humanity with more than the empty lens of materialism. Without imposing a solution on the world, the book suggests a way to live that offers peace and bliss.
