DESCRIPTION
A book by a visionary thinker who brilliantly formulates a vision of liberated sexuality and fulfillment in love. From the experience of free love he develops new perspectives for a new way of living, where love between two people no longer excludes free love. He describes the philosophical and social basis for a culture in which jealousy is no longer a natural law, where sexual desires no longer have to be suppressed and where faithfulness between two lovers no longer breaks down because of too narrow a vision of love.”Knowing love” is the term he uses for the process of developing a culture without sexual repression, fear and violence.TRANSCRIPT

The Author: Historian, Author and Psychoanalyst, Dieter Duhm (PhD Sociology) was born in 1942 in Berlin, Germany and is the initiator of the “Plan of the Healing Biotypes”, a glo-bal peace plan. From 1967 he engaged in the Marxist left, including being one of the leading characters in the stu-dents’ movement. In 1972 his well-known book “Angst im Kapitalismus” (Fear in Capitalism) was published, which made the link between the thoughts behind politi-cal revolution and thoughts behind the liberation of the individual. 1975 saw a distancing from leftist dogmatism and a shift towards a more thorough human alternative, leading to the establishment of the ‘Bauhutte’ project: a three year social experiment with 40 participants in the Black-Forest in Germany. With the theme of ‘founding a community in our times’ the experiment embraced the questions of the origin, meaning and aim of human existence on planet Earth. Arising from the experiment come outlines of a new possibility of existence with the concepts of ‘free love’, ‘spiritual ecology’ and ‘resonance technology’. In 1995, together with Theologian Sabine Lichtenfels and others, he founded Tamera Peace Research Centre in Portugal, which today has more than 160 co-workers.Dieter Duhm has dedicated his life to creating an effective forum for a global peace-initiative which is a match for the destructive forces of capitalistic globali-sation.
”We have done to sensual love what we did to the rivers. In both cases we have achieved the same result: we have taken away the natural beauty and healing power that was originally present.”Dieter Duhm

Peace between the Sexes and Peace with NatureThe ecological disaster and the sexual di-saster are interconnected. The destruction of the life energies in the human organism and the destruction of the life energies in our biosphere are two aspects of the same basic problem. The earth is not a motor which runs smooth-ly if only the right kind of oil and gas are pro-vided. Neither does it get sick only because it is being polluted by industrial waste water, acid rain, carbon dioxide and other kinds of toxins. Its illness encompasses much more than just its mechanical malfunctioning, because its inner core, its soul, has been af-fected. Our biosphere is a most diverse and yet homogeneous organism, where body and soul interact very much in the same way as they do in the organism of the individual. The discovery of a unified connectedness of all life is part of the fundamental develop-ment currently taking place in enlightened religion and science. The entire biosphere possesses a unified energy and information system, and a uni-fied system of matter consisting of chemical elements and their properties. In addition it can apparently withstand an enormous amount of strain and – due to its inherent power of self-healing – can regenerate itself
with nearly inexhaustible power. Otherwise there would no longer be any sprouting, blossoming, singing or laughing, after all that we have inflicted upon it for millenia. On the one hand we are facing outer de-struction, consisting of the extermination of large populations and species, the pollution of the air and the contamination of the wa-ter, the breeding of fur-bearing animals and livestock, the hunting of whales and the kill-ing of seals, etc. On the other hand we are facing destruction from within, consisting of a lack of meaning and purpose in life, a fear of life itself, the loss of the ability to love, and psychosomatic illnesses of various kinds. Together they exert a great amount of strain on the global organism. The crises in our in-ner and outer environments are two sides of the same problem and can be understood and solved only by adopting an overall view.It is obvious that a new concept of human civilization is necessary. The innermost core of this concept touches elemental human questions concerning sexuality, love and partnership, community and belonging, the meaning of life and home. Whether a future society remains inhumane or whether it can become humane, whether children growing up will be happy or unhappy in that society, will to a great extent depend on how we ap-proach and solve our inner questions.
