In Legacies of the Self, independent scholar Rodger Paul Shute discusses how we come to be who we are meant to be and how we can best deal with the obstacles that confront us on our journey. He draws his conclusions from five basic suppositions: 1. The universe is a mystery not fully understood; 2. We arrive in this objective, consensual world at conception, not at birth; 3. We possess free will; 4. There are influences and predilections to which we become heir at conception and others we gain through our life experiences. Our defense against unwanted influences affecting our ability to make good choices depends on us recognizing that we possess a superpower: free will; 5. Each living being is an eternal Self that does not perish upon death of the body.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rodger Paul Shute Ma\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1735816841\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781735816845\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Romar Philosophical Publishing LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/26\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 414\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.92d","brand":"Rodger Paul Shute Ma","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48154131726591,"sku":"9781735816845","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b49054e1-f791-4240-8f9f-b0b287f3f4a3.jpg?v=1770788105","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/legacies-of-the-self-rodger-paul-shute-ma-9781735816845","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
