The Matriarchal Science within the series The Shamanic Quest is a study that outlines the present debate about the dichotomy of matriarchy-patriarchy.

The Role of Intention in the Shamanic Experience as part of the series The Shamanic Quest is a study that is based on the essential hypothesis erected in my report An Ayahuasca Journey, about my experience with the sacred Ayahuasca brew back in 2004 in Ecuador. The hypothesis I have erected in that report was that there is no linear causation by plant chemistry only, as most of the shamanism researchers admit, such as "it’s the DMT in the brew that causes the consciousness-altering cognitive experience."

From the Ether to the Quantum Field is an essay in which I retrace the scientific development of the notion of the ether, as it dominated 19th century science, to the notion of the quantum field that is the final answer of modern science to the cosmic energy field as well as the human biofield that various researchers have detected and described, and that they all termed differently.

Oedipal Hero: The Hidden Side of Glory (Scholarly Articles, Vol. 20) - 2019 Apple Books Edition - is a study on a particular not yet elucidated problem of psychiatry. ‘Oedipal Hero’ is a term I have forged for an individual, usually of male sex, who suffers from a specific pathology that comes from a combination of unresolved Oedipus Complex and Narcissism. In my view, modern psychiatry has just begun to identify this problem, and my approach to scientifically and psychologically outline this pathology is therefore to be seen as a pioneering work.

The 12 Angular Points of Social Justice and Peace: Social Policy for the 21st Century presents an articulate peace agenda that contains 12 distinct proposals for reducing violence to a minimum while promoting and encouraging pleasure-seeking behaviors both in children and adults.

Your Way to Innocence is a guide for developing an innocent and carefree attitude in everyday life. In simple terms it could be said that innocence results from awakening our inner child and using the energy of the inner child as a trigger for self-transformation. This systematic guide to the how-to for creating innocence is not teaching anything, but in the contrary suggests unlearning much of learned knowledge, and dissolving conditioned habits and behavior patterns that have to be cleared before true innocence can unfold.
