InPresence 0088: The Law of Progressive Contraries

InPresence host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in “parapsychology” ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). For many years he served as president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people were supported and encouraged in developing inner intuitive abilities.

Here he discusses the second “cosmic law” formulated by his friends, Dean and Wendy Brown. He also pays tribute to Dean Brown, who was a major source of inspiration and guidance for him. He relates the principle of progressive contraries to the Dialectic philosophy of Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel. He shows how one can apply this principle in politics and in parapsychology.
