Person to Person Inspiration: 164 (American University Studies, Series 5: Philosophy) - Tapa dura

-It is a widespread belief among philosophers of our time that doing genuine philosophy and writing poetry at one and the same time are inexorably incompatible, nay, ineluctably opposed, activities. The reason behind such a belief is the prevailing conception of philosophy itself. This work by Sunnie and Jim Kidd is a glowing counter example to such a belief, for it eminently succeeds in conveying a rare and saving philosophic vision through the medium of a prose which reads like fine poetry.- (Ramakrishna Puligandla, Professor of Philosophy, The University of Toledo)
-Optimal conditions for the integration of human universes are latent there where natural readiness exists amongst individuals to embrace all of humanity, irrespective of the multi-variety of directions in which human activity can seek expression. The importance of unconditional shared vision and person-to-person inspiration as core exponents of the de-facto integration of human universes leads, on its own accord, to a unification process which is explicitly central to obtaining durable, interpersonal peace.- (Leo W. Zonneveld, OLJ, The Hague, The Netherlands)"

Inspiration is a universal phenomenon yet it touches each one of us personally. It cuts across and goes beyond any specific boundary of philosophy, psychology or spirituality. Fundamental to the inspiring experience is an inspiration/aspiration dialectic that arises in the dynamic field of inbetweenness shared by the inspired person and the inspiring other. Inspiration is the human being's most creative act.
