Ingo Swann
Ingo Swann once said, 'The Way to keep people stupid, even if you make them literate, is to focus on the negative, what is wrong, what is wrong with us, than you spend you whole life wondering what is wrong with us. Well, what about what is good with us. I think what is good with us deserves an equal amount of attention.'Ingo viewed life force energy as much more than just a basic vital force; he perceived it as an ever-evolving, sentient energy field that holds immense amounts of knowledge. In his eyes, this energy links all living creatures and can be tapped into and deciphered by our innate perceptional awareness system. Thus amidst editor Elly Flippen’s own journey of self-discovery for her book Conjunction.World, she came to deeply comprehend the vital significance of awareness and perception. Seeking further understanding, she turned to her uncle Ingo Swann’s thought-provoking collection of essays in his Superpowers of the Human Biomind database. Once in, she found a tangled web of ideas and concepts to unravel. As she poured over them, she found herself editing and reworking sections that pertained directly to her personal enlightenment. And in doing so, she had a sudden realization - why not compile her own selection of these profound musings? And thus, this collection was born. She hopes it serves as a launching pad for the testament to our limitless potential as human beings.
