With his own quest, Orest Stocco illustrates that we are all born with a spark of divine consciousness; but not until we take evolution into our own hands, which Gurdjieff's teaching helped him to do, will we realize our true self.

And the more I read on reincarnation, the more convinced I was that when we die we come back to live life over again; and my concern then became-why do we come back to live life over again?""

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Few writers have impacted writing like Ernest Hemingway, and My Writing Life is a personal account of the impact he had upon the author from the day he discovered him in high school. Not only does My Writing Life offer a unique insight into the art of writing, but into the complicated life of Ernest "Papa" Hemingway, and it dares to offer a psycho/literary perspective on Hemingway's complex personality and legendary suicide. A memoir like no other, My Writing Life sates the longing in one's soul that literature cannot satisfy, which Orest Stocco illustrates with the adventurous life and writing of Ernest "Papa" Hemingway.

Where Are We Going This is the title of the celebrated painting by French artist Paul Gauguin, questions that we would all like answered; but one can read all the libraries in the world and have every experience imaginable and still not know the answer to these questions. U of T professor and clinical psychologist Dr. Jordan B. Peterson offers a way to find the answer with his global bestseller 12 Rules for Life: An Antidote to Chaos, but this will only take one so far on their journey to personal resolution that will answer Gauguin's three questions; the rest of the way has to be negotiated by special effort, which One Rule to Live By: Be Good by Georgian Bay author Orest Stocco spells out by ?opening the door to a new way of perceiving, a new way of thinking and understanding, ? an unbelievable true story that defies comprehension; a story that takes the mystery out of what the great psychologist C. G. Jung called ?the way of what is to come.?

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →""Stories bear the truth of the human condition, and the human condition is the story of our becoming; but not until we solve the riddle of our becoming will literature resolve the issue of the human condition. This makes literature endlessly fascinating, because every writer speaks to their place in the enan-tiodromiac process of man's becoming, which Jung called "individuation," and in their stories they stake out the geography of man's soul-whether it be the happy country of one's being, the unhappy country of one's non-being, or that miserable place of being stuck between two countries-the no-man's land of one's soul.""

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The "I" is the big mystery of life. The "I" is a miraculous unit of reflective self-consciousness that is aware of its own individuality and separateness from life; and although every "I" is made of the same individuated consciousness of life, each "I," in the words of the poet John Keats, possesses "a bliss peculiar to each one by individual existence." The "I" is who we are. It is our distinct individual core identity. Like snowflakes, we are all different but the same; but how do we become different? Better still, how do we even become a distinct, separate "I"?

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The saddest people in the world are those that have been brought as far as life can take them in the evolution of their individuality, because the longing in their soul for wholeness and singleness of self cannot be satisfied by life and one does not know what to do to fill the hollow in their soul and be the person they are destined to be, like my high school hero Ernest Hemingway. No matter how much life he experienced, he never seemed to get enough of it; like marlin fishing in the Gulf Stream, which so tested his manhood that he had to prove himself over, and over, and over again, and in the process winning trophies and adulation that fed his massive ego which in turn demanded more attention, a never-ending cycle that drove the great author to despair and suicide.
