Prometheus Rising

By: Robert Anton Wilson

Narrated by: Robert Anton Wilson, Oliver Senton

Prometheus Rising describes the landscape of human evolution and offers the listener an opportunity to become a conscious participant. In an astoundingly useful road map infused with humor and startling insight, Robert Anton Wilson presents the eight circuits of the brain model as an essential guide for the effort to break free of imprinted and programmed behavior. Bob writes, "We are all giants, raised by pygmies, who have learned to walk with a perpetual mental crouch. Unleashing our full stature–our total brain power–is what this book is all about.”

What does a door mean to a key...

Manage your expectations. This may not be for you. Regulate your pace. Plan to learn more than you can currently understand. If you missed a step go back and start again!

Full of great epiphanys, hope and understanding.

I think this book should be taught in schools, or maybe that is just my 3rd and 6th circuits trying to build maps and start programing the species genetic intelligence towards a more promising future. One where we can program (or be programed) our own reality tunnels (is that the 7th curcuit activity, i hear, lol), instead of being run by our base nature (circuits 1-4) with fear. This blind leading the blind (maybe a bad feedback loop?) may not be what we were built fo4. Maybe there's Hope.... I guess will have to wait and see, lol

happy reality tunnel digging, building, enjoying! I hope your days are beautiful.

Should be required reading

This book contains extremely valuable information regarding the nature of consciousness and is practically a manual for a self guided therapy experience. Don't take my word for it, pick this book up and start doing the exercises.

Blew my metacharacter away!!

Amazing overall, read back to back twice already… I’m sure this will be a once every two years at least a chapter

Transformative insight into human bio-psychology

The 8-circuit brain model offers useful strategy to analyze human behavior and drives, as well as to foresee psycho-social evolution of our species. Brilliant work ! Highly recommended for humanists, revolutionaries and rebels.

A fantastic work by a fantastic author

I read this book 25 years ago and it changed my life. It’s model of the mind/body as a reprogrammable bio-computer has made a huge difference in my life both personally and professionally

Nice narration

It’s is read and narrated by the author with. Makes the ideas express lively , understanding where the author is coming from is great

A perspective shift I didn’t know I needed

A completely and utterly mind-opening experience. My goal before reading was moved and expanded on a scale I can not explain.

The voice

I didn’t enjoy it at all. I didn’t understand the content and the reader’s voice was annoyed me to the point where I couldn’t focus on the material.

terribly disappointing

I got this book because of an Instagram post which made the book sound helpful, thought-provoking, and evolved. I couldn't even finish listening to this pile of rubbish. The worst book that I have ever endeavored to read.
