Not exactly spiritually correct nor exactly nondual, but listening to PKD's explanation of a particularly interesting event and how he tried to "understand" it truly aligns with a lot of what is said about coming to terms with realization.
I reckon there's an interest or two in there for somenoone.

Has he been involved in film making? I'm just about to watch this with a nice glass of wine.

Has he been involved in film making? I'm just about to watch this with a nice glass of wine. Films from his novels or short stories: Blade Runner (born in 1928, died in 1982, he saw some footage of Blade Runner before he died, was very happy with it), The Minority Report, Paycheck (with Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman), Imposter, The Adjustment Bureau, Total Recall, Radio Free Albemuth (the least successful/interesting/polished), they're are a couple more, but that's off the top of my head...oh yea, Next (very good with Nicholas Cage, his character is able to go two minutes into the future, and eventually, +). His major themes were identity and time-slippage/time travel. I am convinced he personally experienced non-linear time and drew upon this for story ideas. I first discovered his SyFy novel/disguised autobiography VALIS (Vast active living intelligence system, if memory serves me) shortly after publication, and have read some of his stuff since then (although I don't read much fiction), and enjoyed movies-from-his-stories. |
