Synopsis
In part I of Atman's collected work, A Philosophical War, he takes up arms against what he views as humanity's most surreptitious and violent enemy: the structure of its own consciousness. Arguing that the modern human condition has been invaded by a thought process that works against its own nature (and by doing so causes human beings a great deal of unnecessary suffering), Atman's project is to both overthrow and simultaneously replace the current prevailing conscious structure by first identifying its enemy and then aligning with a more coherent and powerful ally. To say the least, it is an ambitious, though, not wholly doomed endeavor. His attacks are delivered in digestible busts of epistemological guerrilla strikes aimed at puncturing the lines of everyday thought patterns. And while the scale of his counteroffensive follows a linear progression, the work can be read and comprehended from nearly any starting point. Atman's initial claim is that because of phenomenological misinterpretations, humanity is only able to obtain fragments of reality. Furthermore, he contends that human consciousness has relied far too heavily on thought alone to comprehend the exterior world and its position within it. His answer is to replace thought as the primary operational tool of consciousness with a mode of relationality he refers to as "being with", which decentralizes the reliance of concepts and ideas and centers on something that Atman sees as entirely more capable of harmonizing humanity with the rest of creation. Possibly even more drastic maneuvers are his revolutionary interpretations of the early chapters in the book of Genesis, and his call for the removal of the contemporary idea of God while, at the same time, delivering one of the most sound arguments for God's existence that has been postulated in the modern era. Filled with intrigue, simplistic insights, and a brand of mystical, yet, realistic hope that only Atman could deliver, Part I of A Philosophical War is a potential landmark work in the dregs of the modern philosophical landscape., In part I of Atman's collected work, A Philosophical War, he takes up arms against what he views as humanity's most surreptitious and violent enemy: the structure of its own consciousness.
