Nigel HyattAlthough Nigel Hyatt, a retired chemical engineer, comes from a technological background, he has been a student of philosophy and religion in general and Sufism in particular for over fifty years. He believes strongly that life cannot and should not be dominated by mindless and blind acceptance of life as filtered through the conventional norms of society. Nigel fears we are guided excessively by the media, whose opinions can replace our own, and we fail to see that a universe of possibilities exists inside ourselves and within our universe that we need to explore. In the past, great teachers and spiritual guides have hinted that we need not imprison the psyche or deny the possibility of further personal evolution. Drawing on decades of study and personal experience, Nigel wrote the poems and discourses in this book to assist with this all-important task of self-discovery and spiritual emancipation, to help readers find a purpose beyond the stultifying nihilism of everyday existence.
