THE YIN YANG OF HUMAN THOUGHT

THE YIN YANG OF HUMAN THOUGHT

I first heard about the duality of human thought when a philosophy professor of mine characterized it as “The twin pillars of Western Civilization”.  He went on to explain that Aristotelian thought and Platonic thought supported all the institutions and accomplishments of the human race even before human history began.  Long before Aristotle and Plato began thinking and writing about it, these two thought paradigms began to lift primitive man out of chaos.

Here are some examples of how these profound intellectual systems have been labeled over the centuries
  • Aristotle - Plato
  • Science – Arts
  •  Logic – Intuition
  • Logistics - Creativity
  •  Male – Female
  • Linear – Non Linear
  • Rational - Emotional
  • And from Personality Type Indicator inventories - Thinking - Feeling
In recent times the plethora of blessings provided by scientific thinking have influenced modern humans to emphasize the linear support for civilization at the expense of the non linear support, resulting in a dangerous tilt to modern culture.

The purpose of this site is to reestablish the co-equal influence of linear and non linear consciousness so they are not falsely held against one another in antithesis.   

You will find ideas and methods to bring your personal consciousness back into balance.  This is an adventure of the mind that should bring you hours of fascination and maybe have a significant influence on the quality of your life.
