Summary

Beyond the Mindintroduces the study of evolutionary psychology. Bernard de Montréal explores the implications of thesupramental, as they bear on the inexorable awakening ofmental consciousnessand on its displacement of the primacy of the intellect and of its historical function as principal source of intelligence and knowledge. This important work examines the effects ofthought pollutionon the mind and the perils of thepsychic seductionexerted bysectarian ideologyand occultism. His novel definition of the mind bridges the psychic gap betweeninvolutionandevolution, from intellect andunconscious free-willto real creative thought, naive spirituality and belief tomental consciousnessand from soul to spirit."We have moved from superstition to empirical science in the study of matter but have failed to move from superstition to science in the study of thought, a prerequisite for the understanding of the mysteries." "The passage from mental or psychological to supramental or psychic evolution will transform the self 's view of life, death and the mysteries. It will be a difficult experience for civilization as its influence on the mind will be brought to question as the self witnesses the legacy of astral illusions that have kept humanity in the dark for thousands of years. The self stands at the crossroads of the past and future of civilization."
