The Present Crisis: A Critical Analysis of the Human Mind

The Present Crisis This book is both prophetic as well as a psychic phenomenon in that it forecasts future events and was written by a man in the state of Super-Consciousness in a style that cannot be duplicated and in such a short period of time–11 days–that no ordinary human being could possible accomplish the feat. The authors writes, “I could actually feel a Superior Intelligence intervening when ideas, crystallized into words strung in order like a necklace, floated before my inner vision to be put down on paper. The Present Crisis is a “Wonderbook,” radically different from any of Gopi Krishna’s previous writings. It discusses freely the reason for the present crisis and the remedies that can be applied to solve it peacefully. Dust and cobwebs have gathered on our political and social systems, and in the way in which mankind, even at this elevated state of her existence, spends her life. The Present Crisis is aimed to clean away these cobwebs and this dust and make the race look at herself in a mirror, which can reflect her visage in such a clear way that the mistakes and the errors become clearly perceptible. “The race cannot survive during the nuclear age unless there occurs a complete change in our social and political structures, and spirituality, pruned of all falsehood, becomes the guiding star of our life,” the author says. The main object of the book is to prove that Inspiration and Revelation are verifiable phenomena which need the urgent attention of the leading scholars and scientists. It is the investigation of these phenomena that will put science on the track of real religious experience, which has been at the base of every faith existing at present. The Present Crisis is ironical, satirical, biting, comical and humorous at the same time. “We should not be by satellites, spaceships and computers,” the author says. “They are machines and cannot take the place of the human intellect. If the wit of mankind becomes distorted, there is no hope for the race.”
