Being Human: An Entheological Guide to God, Evolution, and the Fractal, Energetic Nature of Reality: 10th Anniversary Full-Color Fractal Art Edition

Initially released in 2009, Being Human was Martin Ball's first book exploring the Entheological Paradigm, his radical take on the nondual nature of reality and the role that entheogens and psychedelics can play in revolutionizing humanity's understanding of itself and its place in the cosmos. To commemorate the 10th anniversary of its publication, this new edition of Being Human is graced with 33 full-color original pieces of stunning fractal art as created by the author. Written as a guidebook to self-understanding and personal transformation, Being Human plumbs the depths of what it means to be human, the nature of identity, and the nondual, unitary nature of reality. The information in this relatively short book is presented matter-of-factly with concise, plain language, making the concepts and practices easily accessible and free from metaphysical speculation and mystification. Entheogens, as energetic tools, are explored as an unsurpassed means to override the persistent energetic structures of the human ego and its sense of separation, revealing the unitary nature of being and consciousness found at the core of all identity and conscious experience. A primary theme that is explored is that awakening to nonduality is not so much a spiritual issue as it is an energetic one, and that when the right energetic tools are applied, consistent and repeatable results can be obtained by anyone, regardless of belief system, culture, or religious or spiritual identity. Stimulating, challenging, provocative, and bold, the central idea of the book is summed up nicely by one of the concluding affirmations of the book: "Guess what? You are God - Now get over it " Whether you're reading Ball's work for the first time, or re-reading this commemorative edition to enjoy the art, you're sure to find Being Human a book that will leave you thinking, and just might inspire you to experience the ideas contained within directly for yourself within your own infinite being.
