About the Author

Born in New Zealand in 1938, the author spent his early years on a sheep farm in the Waikato. He attended the University of Auckland and the University of California, Santa Barbara, where he studied marine biology and population ecology, respectively. He went on to teach experimental field ecology at the University of British Columbia, from whence he strayed into environmental activism. During his scientific career, he published widely in technical journals across the fields of ecology, environmental assessment, global warming, as well as several articles dealing with the theory and practice of environmental activism. He eventually joined the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), spending fourteen years in the Jakarta office before retiring as director of the International Oceanographic Commission (IOC), UNESCO – Paris, in 1999. Dr. Harger has a well-founded understanding of the relationship between science and social practice, having also spent time with the State of Michigan Toxic Substances Control Commission, where he designed and implemented cleanup procedures applied by the state in controlling instances of toxic substance contamination of the environment. His foray into the area of self-analysis and subsequent projection into the profound provoked a complete reversal of his previously solid view of external physicality now finding agreement with Sri Ramana in observing, “that the world and the mind arise as one but of the two, the world depends on the mind alone, the only reality being that in which this inseparable pair have their rising and setting.” Toronto, March 2019 Consciousness: Bliss of the One without a Second *PhD (population ecology), University of California, Santa Barbara.
