An Overview of Human Potential The quintessence and expansion of his Essays. Stan Kapuscinski draws on his extensive experience to share with us his unique perspective on the world we live in. He asserts his Perception of Reality in terms of historical, sociological, religious, scientific and philosophical context. This book will help you stand on your own feet with such confidence that nothing will ever upset your balance. Excerpts from 5 Star Reviews: "The more one reads Stanislaw Kapuscinski, the more convincing he becomes. Not that he tries to convince you... He merely states, clearly, what his view of reality is, and, lo and behold, with each sentence it seems to make more and more sense. What an extraordinary man!" (Marvin D. Clark, Smashwords) "...The Bibliography at the end of this book is a living testament to the author's desire to master the secrets of reality." (Bahdan Czytelnik, Poland) "...I strongly recommend it to all who pride themselves in having an open mind." (Anetta Bach, Smashwords) "...If this book doesn't waken you from your mental abnegation of truth perceived by your mind, (not just your senses), nothing will. Or, perhaps, you already live in a universe of your own making? Highly recommended!" (Adam Kerry, Smashwords) "...The philosophy Kapuscinski developed here, seems to permeate all his novels. And... I am awfully glad it does!" (Hanna, Smashwords)

The Human race is endowed with the gene of immortality. Our genome can endure thousands, perhaps millions of years. But what of our consciousness? Can we achieve the awareness of the immortality of our self? The Gospel of Thomas claims that: "whosoever finds the explanation of these words shall not taste death."An international group of scholars provided the translation of the Coptic text discovered in Nag Hammadi, while the author offers his explanation of the 114 sayings attributed to Jesus. He offers the Key to Immortality.

The book, the author writes, is: "Dedicated to Richard Dawkins, in gratitude for many hours of enjoyable reading. While he and I don't always see eye to eye, the doctor might find, here, additional arguments for his Cause Célèbre." The author goes on to advance compelling arguments regarding Delusions ingrained and perpetrated by both, the religious and the scientific communities. He concludes that science/religion argument is equally as deluded on both sides of the equation, particularly when advanced from the preeminently fundamentalist point of view. With frequent sprinkling of humor and considerable intellectual prowess, Stanislaw Kapuscinski exposes DELUSIONS masquerading under the guise of science and religion. 5 Star Reviews (on Smashwords) include: Having read God Delusion, I'm so glad that Stanislaw Kapuscinski took it upon himself to extend the 'Delusions' to the field of science. Pragmatic Realism seems well suited to the task of balancing the odds. The book shows, clearly, the folly of one-sided view of reality. It also evident that those who criticize the most, have most to learn. (Jo Steinman) I love the idea of being mostly empty space. Perhaps we are just bundles of emotions, held in a gentle yoke of mental discipline. Now this would be neither religion nor science. It just would be a wonderful way to live, to experience reality. I am reminded of a poem by William Blake: How do you know but every bird that wings the airy way, Is an enormous world of delight, closed to your senses five? If birds can do it, why shouldn't we? You opened a new reality for me.

An Indispensable Tool for the Understanding of the Hidden Meaning of Scriptures For more than 2000 years, over 3300 Hebrew and/or Ancient Greek words in the Bible remained not translated. By providing the translation and often the symbolic meaning of the "missing" words, the author gives us the opportunity to finally understand the real meaning of the teaching of Moses, the Prophets, Jesus and the Evangelists. The Method of Application shows us how. Some 5 STAR reviews of the Dictionary transcribed from Smashwords: I never read the bible back-to-back but, as of today, I strongly suspect, I'm going to do it: one chapter at-a-time. After only the first 50 pages of the Dictionary of Biblical Symbolism, I already know that this book is an absolute eye-opener. You won't believe it till you try it! (Marvin D. Clark, Montreal, CA) 3300 words not translated? It seems someone wanted to keep us in the dark! It must have taken the author years to produce this document. I never suspected the Bible holds so many secrets: Pearls before swine...? For most of us who never made the effort to do the research ourselves, you saved years of work. Using your Dictionary of Biblical Symbolism (I've just begun) is like unraveling a story, full of suspense and mystery. Fascinating! (Hanna RC, Canada) Even the first 30% make it abundantly clear that this is not an easy book to peruse. Apparently the more effort you put into the Application, the more you benefit. I'm going to do one chapter per week and, who knows, perhaps, one day, this book, the Dictionary, will set me free. Until today, I've been an avid reader of Mr. K's fiction. Now, I'm a convert. I suspect his non-fiction will be packed with equal depth of metaphysical suspense. Imagine my surprise when I've learned that the author developed his philosophy in a number of books, before he started writing fiction. Wish more writers would do that! Thanks again, Mr. Kapuscinski and... Mr. Stan I.S. Law! (Adam Kerry, Canada)

The 52 essays will restore confidence in your own judgment; they will help you to become master of your own destiny. [From Intro.] "Anyone searching these pages for quick, glib, answers will be disappointed. I would rather my readers treated my essays as a menu of exotic dishes, perhaps a silver tray of hors-d'oeuvres, which they might taste, relish, ponder upon their esoteric ingredients, and if still tempted-swallow." From 5 STAR Reviews on Smashwords: "This is the 3rd collection of Essays I've read. Kapuscinski doesn't impose his views, he illustrates them. Also, on a number of occasions, I have been greatly amused. You might be too. Good luck!" (B. Czytelnik Jan. 21, 2011)

Looking at some of the dates, you might think that some of these essays are out of date.

"The purpose of these essays is not to offer facile answers, but to stimulate your mind to look for yours. Good luck!"
