Excerpt from Divine Imagining: An Essay on the First Principles of Philosophy; Being a Continuation of the Experiment Which Took Shape First in "The World as Imagination" (No. 2 of the "World as Imagination" Series)
Our concern is not with specific faiths, but with the character of this all - embracing protean Power. And, perhaps, we shall find It less elusive than It seemed to Omar Khayyam and seems still to his agnostic and sceptical successors of to-day.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book grapples with the fundamental nature of reality, a question that has preoccupied philosophers for centuries. The author, taking inspiration from figures like Blake, Shelley, and Kant, presents a bold new framework for understanding the universe, arguing that its essence is best understood as "imaginal" - a conscious, dynamic activity akin to our own experience of imagining. This "Divine Imagining" is not merely a passive force, but a creative and ever-evolving power that shapes the world and all its inhabitants. Drawing upon a rich tapestry of philosophical traditions, the author challenges the limitations of traditional materialistic, energetic, and theological interpretations, ultimately offering a nuanced and hopeful vision of a world where creation, change, and individual experience are woven into the very fabric of reality. The book's insights provide a fresh and compelling perspective on the enduring questions of existence, consciousness, and the nature of the divine.
