ABOUT 0.1%

0.1% is a humble journey through the murky waters of human nature, existential doubt, suffering and human potential.

PART ONE

The book is divided in two main blocks: 99.9% and 0.1%. The first block, 99.9%, aims to offer a starting point presenting an understanding of humanity based on current human realities. All of these realities are created, perceived and interpreted by us, humans. This part offers an overview of five inter-correlated realities, which I believe comprise the modern worldview and Zeitgeist regarding our general understanding of homo sapiens and the environment.

Rational, subjective, deep subjective, intersubjective and virtual realities form the backbone of how we perceive, analyze and rationalize whatever this thing is that we call existence. It is clear that these five realities are a reduction and categorization of the whole universal and human experience that expands far beyond what we can perceive, analyse and rationalize. But it is a good place to start our journey.

PART TWO

Part two of the 99.9% block, attempts to approach our five realities from another angle and offers the reader some new perspectives on the obstacles we are facing while living completely unaware of our whole vital experience in the world and the endless potential we possess as human beings in a such inter-correlated universe.

It is a fact that most of us live superficial lives with which we are not content. Fortunately, it is my belief that homo sapiens can become not only aware but fully self-aware of the fact. Understanding oneself is understanding the world and vice-versa. It is possible for us to understand ourselves at deeper levels in which we transcend beyond ourselves to discover new realities containing new dimensions in our existence. These new realities present new challenges and opportunities.

0.1%

In this realm, we are clear about our limitations, our values, and deep layers of existence. At this point, we enter the realm of our 0.1 percent, within which we are fully self-aware, creators of our own experiences with our own self-made choices, taking full responsibility for ourselves and the world. Here, we can begin to dream of giving purpose to our life. Finally, our 0.1 percent presents ourselves with the danger we pose, confronting us with the realization that we are the origin of all coming evil as well as the most awe-inspiring acts of kindness. We are responsible not only for ourselves but for the rest of humanity and the universe we live in.
