It exposes the ubiquitous structure that conditions our capacity to reason the truth for our world and shows how it necessitates its own existence through an investigation of self-reference. Paraphilosophy is the idea of the idea, which is our creative spirit, and is our means of reconciling the present war of opposites with the nondual nature of self-consciousness. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Paperback \/ softback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 384 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 29 September 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: John Hunt Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Shape of Knowledge is the culmination of a profound and transformative experience that unfolded in 2012. Within its pages, the foundations of a groundbreaking new science of philosophy are laid, promising to bridge the gap that hinders our discourse from progress. Through the lens of the Western canon, The Shape of Knowledge unveils the pervasive structure that shapes our ability to reason the truth about our world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn an exploration of the phenomenon of self-reference, both in the processes and products of thought, this structure is demonstrated to necessitate its own existence. At the heart of it all lies a principle of complementarity, which emerges as the modality of rationalizing paradox. Experience is revealed as a relative process of making sense of the nonsensical nature of reality, and the emergence of paraphilosophy emerges as our means of reconciling the present war of opposites, having served its purpose, with the nondual nature of self-consciousness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eParaphilosophy is not a belief to be embraced; rather, it is the idea of the idea, representing our creative spirit. At its core, this work is an introspective inquiry into the very essence of oneself.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 430g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 140 x 216 x 27 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781803410227\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Benjamin Davies","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44594744918266,"sku":"9781803410227","price":17.78,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1696001435327_book.jpg?v=1696054428","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/shape-of-knowledge-the-an-introduction-to-paraphilosophy-9781803410227","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
