PKD was born missing a few guardrails, the ones that make normal, well-adjusted people. Fortunately, they happened to be in areas that opened the door for creative thinking and philosophy, and combined with his great mental powers, drove him to write stories that captured the uncomfortable truths that we shove aside so that we can live our lives with some semblance of peace and order (or at least try to). He was unable to ignore the unfairness, ugliness, the ego and self-preservation driven terrors of the world and could not keep them at arms length. Like any great artist, his passion was in bringing his view of what was important and meaningful to others through a medium that could capture the imagination and dazzle his audience, and bring them into alignment with his view of the universe, and what it means to be a human being who struggles to do right in a world where what is right is often unclear or misguided. It's too bad that his lack of ability to see things in a balanced way destroyed his life and led to a downward spiral of mental health issues.
You know, I just realized that the strings on More Yellow Birds sound like tornado or air strike sirens. That makes it sound so apocalyptic; it's the end of the world.

“The Occult” is an absolute classic, but my personal favorite that I’ve read of Wilson’s would be “The Philosopher’s Stone”. I prefer the phrase used in that book “Value Experiences” rather than “Peak Experiences”. Highly recommend this book!
What kind of accent does he have? It sounds almost country western. I would not have thought he had an accent like that. He almost has the same accent as famous bass player Jaco Pastorius. Anyway, Philip is not only one hell of a writer, but he had a mouthpiece on him too.
Idk..reminds me of my cousin, who killed his gf in a drug induced rage. and then cried about it sober the next day, like he was the victim and couldn't deal with the guilt. so he took his own life.
Science fiction.....sounds like fun.....but, can we for a moment, try and quantity the concept...science is a set of data that hopefully survives scrutiny....fiction is an idea that few can comprehend. So, science fiction has no boundaries outside of our willingness to try to understand it. I welcome anyone to wake up to their best potential.
Which movie script do you think that story was about (around 50 minutes in)? There were three prior to this interview. I would guess "The Rift" (1990) which has a very low rating. The others were both from 1985: "Lifeforce" and "Max Headroom", both of which have a slightly-higher-than-average rating. He was not credited for his treatment of the Max Headroom script.
Pioneer Visionary provocateur, Madame Helena Petrovna occult writer, child of Russian aristocrats seeker who traveled five continents, and cofounder of the Theosophical society. is still being hailed as an icon and scorned as a fraud. What does this all mean? Read between the lines, there's something syndical in this story.
The occult, Beyond the occult, The Outsider, Poetry and Mysticism, all such greats reads, and he has so much more! I also have his signed book Tree about Tolkien
Buongiorno, sono quella che ha scritto stanotte.. Quella a cui è volato addosso tutto il mondo, quella che ha visto in lei la persona giusta, a cui chiedere aiuto.. Sono quella che ama svisceratamente, una persona speciale che trema solo a sentire il suo nome!.. Ho bisogno di aiuto ..! Ho bisogno di parlarle.. Vorrei , potere fare qualche cosa di bello per sentirmi utile vorrei avere qualche bella cosa anche per me.. Che faccia ritornare il sole nella mia vita! Vorrei riavere tutto quello che nella vita .. Mi hanno tolto! Vorrei anche altre cose che possano rendere il mio cuore , ancora di un bel colore rosso vivo.. Così che io possa gridarlo a chi amo! Il loro benessere... É il mio! Grazie! Vorrei poter aver... Un. OK!
Ho bisogno di aiuto, ho a che fare con dei criminali, che mi hanno messo in un gioco sporco di mentalist e Mentor.. Non vi è ancora una informazione, ma mi ci hanno messo dentro, con cose assurde. All'inizio inventando favole che hanno scatenato il disastro.. Hanno preso di mira come dicono loro per non toccare gli altri, era meglio questa che loro..Non potevano.. Alcge questa storia ha creato in , veri problematiche, senza aiuto, dove nessuno si è mosso, anche con 1000 email.. É stato scritto ogni tipo di aiuto, ma questa storia ha dell'inverosimile.. Si studiano le parti, mettendole più su gli altri, e idea do brutte cose.. Un uomo che ha il meccanismo ideale per leggere nel pensiero, e farlo uscire poi,, per ascoltarlo.. Tutto questo con ripetitore associato.. Ogni cosa viene monitorata, dappertutto, per poi ricostruire le vite degli altri registrando e raccogliendo informazioni per la vita di ognuno. Si nascondono, per far sembrare che non ci siano, ma poi fanno brutte cose agli altri.. Ogni cosa ha un 'altra per creare qualche cosa di grande e far star male gli altri.. Ma tutto registrato, ogni piccola parola, della tua vita. I tuoi affetti, la tua privacy, il guardare in certe stanze di tutti. Ma nessuno li viene a prendere, nessuno si muove
Beautiful cover picture. If academics & historians would consider this new theory by The Thunderbolts Project, where planetary history, plasma physics, and myth particularly symbols throughout time, all around the world art, petroglyphs, & cave paintings, origins of the religions, etc., It's astounding evidence and explanation that goes far beyond modern understanding! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-t7EAlTcZFwY.html
