The Ever-Present Origin
This English translation of Gebser’s major work, Ursprung und Gegenwart (Stuttgart, Deutsche Verlag, 1966), offers certain fundamental insights which should be beneficial to any sensitive scientist and makes it available to the English-speaking world for the recognition it deserves. “The path which led Gebser to his new and universal perception of the world is, briefly, as follows. In the wake of materialism and social change, man had been described in the early years of our century as the “dead end” of nature. Freud had redefined culture as illness—a result of drive sublimation; Klages had called the spirit (and he was surely speaking of the hypertrophied intellect) the “adversa...

Preeminence of Myth and the Decline of Instrumental Reason
"Jean Gebser (1905-1973) was a philosopher who examined how cultures are generated, situated and oriented in the world. He explored meaningful interconnections between cultures, seeking to provide a fuller account of their nature and workings. Gebser was a man of science, the arts and mysticism, who was interested in the direct human experience of unity with the divine.

Die Welt wahren
Die Welt wahren führt den Leser in das Werk des deutsch-schweizerischen Philosophen, Dichters und intellektuellen Mystikers Jean Gebser (1905-1973) ein. Gebser, erkannte eine Reihe von Mutationssprüngen in der Geschichte des menschlichen Bewusstseins, von denen der letzte die 'integrale' Struktur war, die durch die Gegenwart der Zeitfreiheit gekennzeichnet ist. Gebsers Einsichten in die Phänomenologie des menschlichen Bewusstseins haben dem Bereich der integralen Philosophie und der Bewusstseinsstudien eine tiefe intellektuelle Tiefe und spirituelle Übertragung verliehen und die Arbeiten amerikanischer Historiker wie William Irwin Thompson und des Philosophen Ken Wilber beeinflusst. Weitere synkretistische Bestätigungen verbinden Gebsers integrales Zeitalter mit dem 'integralen Yoga' des indischen Revolutionärs und Yogis Sri Aurobindo und dem evolutionären Mystizismus von Pierre Teilhard de Chardin.
