Title: The Abyss Absolute
Author: Ron Puhek
[$5, postpaid. A huge discount off of retail to get you to see what it’s all about!] Realizing the meaning-lessness of most of contemporary life and even understanding how we must live if we are to find meaning are not enough. By themselves, these achievements may end in nothing but disillusion—disillusion of the meaninglessness and disillusion with the prospects of finding an alternative—even among those approaches typically thought to bring hope. This is because before we can find a way upward we must first allow ourselves to fall into an abyss so profound that it feels as if it will annihilate us. Courage to enter this abyss is the only hope of escaping the emptiness of contemporary life, but there are dangerous traps along the way. “The Abyss Absolute” stands alone but is also the second book—and the heart and the soul—of the Blue Trilogy.
