Summary Excerpt Details

Unity and diversity together constitute the continuum of totality. In order to integrate it a mediator is required that contains the two. Although diversity can be polarized by unity it is no sustainable solution to the diversity challenge, because unity and diversity interact dialectically. The true diversity solution only resides in the transcendence of this continuum which is the transcendence of time, the psychological reversal of time. It is not a simple reconciliation in dilemma theory terms, because the synergy formula of the two poles will probably remain in the domain of duality, whereas the true transcendence of the dualistic plane can only be achieved by the non-dualistic dimension or plane of oneness itself. However, the clearance of the dualistic unity-diversity plane, its integration can be a stepping stone towards the higher non-dualistic plane of oneness, where the true, irreversible, unconditioned essential One resides that is no longer subject to the dance of alliances of the dualistic plane.

Zusammenfassung der Kapitel (Chapter Summaries)

  • The Magic of the One: This chapter introduces the fundamental concept of "The One" as a unifying principle behind the diversity of the world. It draws parallels between the mathematical principle behind the Mandelbrot set and the ancient Chinese philosophy of Dao, both highlighting the role of a single principle in generating infinite variations.
  • The One as the Regulator of Unity and Diversity: This chapter further explores the concept of "The One" as a centripetal force that holds together the centrifugal forces of diversity. It introduces the yin-yang principle from Ancient China, emphasizing the balance between opposing forces.
  • The Mandelbrot Set and Dao: Unitary Principles of Diversity: This chapter delves into the specific examples of the Mandelbrot set and Dao, showcasing how a single principle can lead to an infinite diversity of forms. It emphasizes the challenge of reconciling this diversity, suggesting that a return to the level of the unifying principle is necessary.
  • The One as an Integrative Principle: The Body as a Metaphor: This chapter uses the human body as a metaphor to illustrate the concept of "The One." It argues that the brain, as a unifying principle, integrates the diverse functions of the body, enabling synergy and creative potential.
  • Time, Diversity, and the Problem of Reversibility: This chapter examines the question of whether the diverse variations in the world are irreversible due to the flow of time. It introduces the concept of "psychological time" and its potential for transcendence.
  • Transcending Psychological Time: A Path to Unification: This chapter delves into the concept of transcending psychological time as a means to achieve unification. It explores diverse perspectives on time from physicists, philosophers, spiritualists, and martial arts practitioners.
