Part 3 of Episode 24 is the second part of the audio version of Chapter XXIII of Tertium Organum by P.D. Ouspensky read by Fred Flanagan.


I'm releasing the chapter reading for Chapter 23 in 3 parts because of its length this is Part 2. This chapter will be read by my late father Fred Flanagan as a nod to the past and the person who introduced me to the book.


Well, Ouspensky put a lot of time and effort into trawling through Dr R.M. Bucke’s book Cosmic Consciousness and quotes many excepts from it. Many, many excerpts in fact and one might think that perhaps Mr Ouspensky is a fan (spoiler alert - he’s not). So why does Ouspensky devote so much of this chapter to Dr Bucke? I suggest he is exposing Bucke as a bit of positivist in sheep’s clothing. So, judge for yourself and in the next part of the chapter reading Ouspensky will have his say.
