The Sentient Error
by
Cory Aitken
As humans, we are made up of so many things we understand as “self.” We fear death and resist the inevitability of change. We want what we cannot have, what cannot be, instead of what is and what must be. We live in contradiction. In The Sentient Error, Cory Aitken breaks new ground on the origin of human suffering and the possibility for its resolution. Within the very essence of our own self-construct, our belief system, Aitken posits, there lies a necessary and often unrecognized error—an error that leads to inner conflict, which ultimately leads to suffering. This book is a distillation of a twenty-year journey of self-discovery, in pursuit of peace and joy. Through the recognition of this essential error, this human contradiction, Aitken’s own experience of suffering is resolved, allowing a vacancy within himself for a higher ordering intelligence to enter and occupy. Rich in wisdom and interspersed with poetry, The Sentient Error aims to inspire readers and offers a method of realigning the self with its intended purpose; of living in conscious relationship with ourselves, each other, and a higher power; and of cultivating a more peaceful existence on this planet.
Cory Aitken lives in Victoria, British Columbia, with his family.
