Synopsis

This book shows how trapped we are in a mechanized, consumer-driven society. It describes how the corporation-economy creates a Machine Culture in which all of us are oilers of our spiritual impoverishment. We have been cut off from the sacred. By initiating elder-leaders, establishing epiphanal communities, fasting from the media, and mapping the topography of our inner experience we can reclaim the sacred and reconceive a different future.

About this title

Reviews

Kyle maintains that the world is controlled by the corporate economy with its ever-growing technology. He calls this economy the Machine, implying that it has a life of its own and that we humans have become robots in its service. Having established the Foundation for Russian-American Economic Cooperation, Kyle has taught and consulted worldwide and continues to work with groups exploring psychological and spiritual traditions. His work and book aim at developing "holy mechanics" who work at fixing the machine through spiritually deepened lives. It is scary to read and realize what we humans have allowed to happen to our relationships with each other and the earth. But Kyle gives us hope with his challenge. Recommended for all general collections.
