BIBLIOGRAPHY

(CHRONOLOGICAL ORDER)

​

This bibliography represents by no means an exhaustive list of all the works I have researched, examined, and scrutinized. In addition to the sources listed here, many other cultural, religious, and philosophical materials have informed my studies, research and contemplation.

These are part of the formative influences span the breadth of human thought, encompassing monotheistic and polytheistic traditions, and numerous other systems of philosophy, belief and reflection. When possible I try to find out more about the biography of the authors, when they lived and consider what may have or what they have openly gone record as stating the motivations behind their claims. Without taking that into consideration, you don't have enough data to make a solid or reasonable conclusion.

OPEN YOUR MIND

TO STRONGER AWARENESS

This is a list of recommended reading I have been given. After working through several of the texts and completing them, taking time to process the material and familiarize myself with unfamiliar terms and expressions, I can see how many of the warnings discussed begin to feel relevant in a broader context. In particular, I’ve noticed how concerns around what some authors describe as Mind Wars that play psychological influence games, narrative building and shaping, and large-scale information operations or psychological warfare based propaganda, are interesting to read when framed and interpreted in relation to, and observation of global events and mainstream media environments. Some of these were feared and have even been burned in different countries. That's something to seriously consider.
