Life as we know it has a beginning and an end. Memories and the impact lives have indicate that all may not be dead and gone. The memory lives on and what we can definitely say is that no-one has come back to give an account of life here-after. (OK, not including the Gospels which we will not allude to in these pages). The human mind is the only show in town, and a very high functioning mind seems to be a good enough instrument to ponder the worlds of truth, good and evil, knowledge and what it is all about. The mind itself has to be the most interesting object in existence, and some of its characteristics are discussed. Ultimately the mind as a human reality is maxed out and no more can it do. Is more possible once the mind has done its best? Yes, has to be the answer. When the TV screen flickers into life on turning on the power you get a new reality exuding from wires, for God's sake. When he looks at her, you get an avalanche and cascade of power and life called love which can and is life long. When thousands of tons of iron are shaped like a boat it floats on water! When thousands of tons of metal are shaped like a bird and set at speed it really flies. Amazing. You would never have thought these things could happen. When the human mind is catapulted into another realm and receives a wavelength from another order, it too can fly. This function of the mind, like the wires in the TV set, is the capacity to believe. When the power is switched on in this capacity by a higher reality, even God, then you get lift-off and the human mind functions way beyond its human level capacity. This is written in the signature of the mind which aspires to something great and hopes for and dreams for even eternity and ultimate fulfillment and joy. Since it is written in the essence of the human mind it must be possible and attainable, else the mind is a lie.

About the Book
The human mind is all we have got to understand anything. There is enormous variety in the capacity and the spectrum of human minds. Some think little, some invent, some have the genius factor, and most are the basic model. They all have common characteristics such as desire for knowledge, for love, for happiness, for understanding of suffering and grief. Some ponder the bigger questions like, the meaning of life, the immortality of the soul, the existence of God, and others don't or ignore them. The nature of knowledge and the capacity of the human mind to "know" are mysteries. The inexorible progress of humanity and striving toward more information and technical advancement begs the question the song asks "is that all there is?" What is the end game for man, the human mind and the world as we know it? These and other thought provoking issues have exercized the mind of man since forever. These pages, gleaned from the exposure to the mental suffering of thousands of patients, tries to make a user friendly guide to the human brain/mind, and what it means to be human.
About the Author
My name is Eugene Breen. I have worked as a medical doctor in an inner city practice for over 35 years. I hold post-graduate degrees in both internal medicine and psychiatry. I specialise in psychiatry and the physical illnesses of psychiatric patients. I have completed a philosophy course to the level of bachelor.

I love golf and boast a clubhead speed of over 100 miles per hour which puts the ball 275 plus yards. I feel strongly about natural justice and honesty in medical and journalistic publication. I write for enjoyment, to detox from work committment, and to impart some alternative view to the ones that are pc and are often unassailable because no paper will publish a balancing view. I am over 50 years old, and like James Herriott have started to write books after all those years.
