      • 224 pages
      • 8 hours of reading

      Terra Nova describes a vision for a new culture: an Earth free of war, a society free of violence, a love free of lies, and a life free of fear. The author outlines this new Earth not only in theory, but also writes from his direct experience of its emergence. This book presents the essence of nearly forty years of pioneering work in establishing functioning communities. “How do we generate a new form of humaneness based on trust and mutual support? Where could the solution for the topics of sex, love, and partnership be found? How could the human community be integrated into the community of all beings and eventually into the order of the universe? Only if we succeed in answering these questions can global healing be possible.” The book is a blueprint for the creation of a society based on trust: trust among people, trust between people and animals, and an original trust in life.

      Eros unredeemed

      The World Power of Sexuality

      4.2(22)Add rating

      This book addresses the theme of sexual love from a fresh perspective, emphasizing its significance in our lives. The author reflects on their experiences in various movements and professional roles, highlighting that the subject of sexual longing remains central to our thoughts and feelings. Previous attempts to resolve issues related to love, whether through communes or free love experiments, have largely failed, as have many therapeutic or spiritual approaches. The author argues that the core of the problem is tied to our daily thought and behavior patterns, which cannot be changed without first recognizing these habits. While some claim the sexual revolution is over, the author believes it has not yet truly begun within us. The focus should shift from revolution to recognition. Written for love, the book acknowledges the darker aspects of relationships but maintains a lighter tone to ensure accessibility for all age groups. The author aims to show that a realistic, genuine love between the sexes is possible, free from disguise, fear, and jealousy. They encourage readers to explore this potential within themselves, fostering hope for a future where love is understood and attainable, transforming it from a fairy tale into reality.

      An immense injustice is occurring on Earth, with countless individuals suffering in military and police torture. Dr. Dieter Duhm, a sociologist and psychoanalyst, addresses this in his work, emphasizing the urgency of global peace efforts. He presents twelve chapters that explore how to halt global violence and promote a globalization of peace. Drawing from diverse fields such as science, politics, history, chaos research, holography, ecology, spirituality, and healing, Duhm seeks to answer the pressing question of how to end the madness of violence in places like Chechnya and Palestine. Rather than analyzing the current state of evil, Duhm focuses on finding solutions. He urges readers to transcend conventional thinking and delve into authentic experiences, examining our deepest longings and the realities around us. He reflects on the violent patriarchal past and envisions a future rooted in a planetary peace culture. Central to his argument is the notion that love is the "Archimedean Point" from which a humane world can emerge. Duhm explores how love can be linked to political power and how the dynamics between violence and peace can shift to make a violence-free Earth attainable. Through precise reasoning, he outlines a “Political Theory” that reveals a path toward realizing the seemingly impossible dream of global peace.
