Conceived in chronologically aphoristic terms, this 1998 project is nevertheless divided into twelve sections, each of which bears a headed title in quasi-essayistic vein. Examples of such titles include 'Fair to Life', 'Collective and Individual', 'Self vis-à-vis Not-Self', 'Form and Content(ment)', and 'Metaphysical Salvation'. There is also, at the end, a fairly long appendix which has the merit, not uncharacteristic of John O’Loughlin’s appendices, of both summing up the text and, in this particular case, illustrating the reculer pour mieux sauter, or stepping back in order to leap further forward, attitude which underlines much of the foregoing philosophy. Certainly this work goes deeper than any previous one by Mr O’Loughlin ever did in terms of its understanding of the Self and the methodology of self-actualization, or self-realization, by which the bridge from ego to soul is crossed. – A Centretruths editorial.
