NEW CONSCIOUSNESS
This extraordinary text brilliantly integrates art, science, and religion in achieving a mind-expanding overview of human cultural development.
--Choice
This is a unique work, possibly a forerunner of a science of the future, integrating empirical knowledge with subjective reality.
--Sasha Ivanovich, The Australian Journal of Transpersonal Psychology
Earth Ascending . . . is a complex and exceedingly ambitious work, with exciting cross-cultural implications. . . . It may prove to be a foundation stone for the new science of the next century.
--Nexus
This outrageous book, inspired by the law of levity, offers us the overstandings of a remarkable mind.
--Marilyn Ferguson, Brain/Mind Bulletin
Earth Ascending is a workbook for human and planetary survival. This collection of fifty holonomic maps and comprehensive text is based on a resonant field paradigm which transcends the Newtonian materialistic model. Each individual map is a work of art unto itself, encapsulating a world of insight and consciousness, and bridging the gap to an integrated, galactic worldview.
In 1978, Buckminster Fuller said that it would be curtains for humanity if a design revolution were not completed within ten years. It is now ten years later, and as a convincing response to this challenge, Earth Ascending postulates a planetary design which envisions the evolving field of Earth in relation to the galactic whole.
Earth Ascending demands a stretch of consciousness. Our fall from spiritual realization and our degradation of the environment are the result of a blind acceptance of one-dimensionality, and a paralyzed, complacent acceptance of impending doom. Only a rebirth into the numinous world of multidimensional interface will give us the vision to create a new future. Earth Ascending offers this vision.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Most seminal book published in the 20th century,
By howardoa@usit.net (Howard of Athens - USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Earth Ascending: An Illustrated Treatise on Law Governing Whole Systems (Paperback)
EARTH ASCENDING illustrates the mathematical correlations of the binary computer code, the I Ching hexagrams, Ben Franklin's magic square, the DNA code, the Mayan Sacred Calendar, the fluxuations of the Van Allen radiation belt, historical epocs, pristine civilizations, the terrestial seasons, and the governing geomagnetic features of the planet, among others. The author's noetic vision has a density like Mahler's music and Finnegans Wake. This reviewer dares venture that it will prove to be the single most seminal book published in the 20th century. Do yourself a favor: buy it, read it, let yourself be enlightened by it. Not to know it is a sign of intellectual backwardness. Not to ponder it is to walk in spiritual darkness. Not to own it is a mark of cultural poverty.

Transformative!,

This review is from: Earth Ascending: An Illustrated Treatise on Law Governing Whole Systems (Paperback)
Likely to prove the most important book ever published. Imagine Plato's Timaeus updated for the information age with full-page illustrations & graphs & you have a good idea of Earth Ascending.
Unifying cultural artifacts from around the world in a whole-systems perspective, Earth Ascending offers the possiblility of transformation from a planet of war and misunderstanding, to a single unified Earth. It is highly doubtful that the mayan-calendar / 2012 movement would have progressed beyond such mundane topics as GMT correlations and mushroom-induced fantasies if not for this incredibly illuminating textbook on the re-orientation of the human mind & the return of the psyche to its natural state of harmony. highest possible recommendation for all earthlings.

5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the most significant books you will ever read.,
By W. Paul Blakey "of Twin Eagles Publishing" (Sechelt, BC Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Earth Ascending: An Illustrated Treatise on Law Governing Whole Systems (Paperback)
I first read Earth Ascending in 1992. At that time everything in it was so unfamiliar to me that it was like reading a foreign language. Fortunately it is filled with diagrams and drawings to help drag the kicking and screaming left brain into a whole-system view of the world that is nothing less than astonishing. In the intervening years I have read and re-read the book and each time my mind has somehow stretched to contain a little bit more. Earth Ascending is to Jose Arguelles as Ulysses is to James Joyce. It should be required reading in every school and translated into every language.
