Prometheus and Atlas

Book • 2023
In 'Prometheus and Atlas', Dr. Jorjani critiques the nihilistic materialism and rootless rationalism of the modern West, arguing that these ideologies suppress the spectral and have a parasitic relationship with Abrahamic religious fundamentalism.

He advocates for recognizing the empowering archetypes of Prometheus and Atlas, which have driven scientific exploration and discovery across cultures.

The book calls for a fusion of Eastern and Western horizons to create a new integral society where barriers between science, religion, politics, and art are dissolved.
