I just watched a 3 1/2 hour lecture by Tsarian, it was quite enlightening. The guy has some pretty kookie out-there theories, but I haven't read his books/heard his full arguments on the matters so I can't justifiably declare them "wrong" either.

Anyway, his philosophies on the human mind and why the world is in the shape it is, were IMO just incredible. I think he made some excellent arguments on why we do some of the terrible things we do, why some descend to mental illness, and why most can't escapse and stop creating their own suffering. I don't know if you're so philisopically-minded or just into the politics, but I think it's really worth checking out.

If you're interested, check out the following video. I'd say the really important stuff is at 2 hours 25 minutes. You'll have to pause and walk away for a good while to buffer of course.

I have seen this lecture, and you are right he does give some interesting ideas to think about! I thought it was a good lecture personally.
