There was a phrase used in 17th century England to describe one who could readily absord and comprehend the essence of the world about them. Such a person was said to have "CLEAR UNDERSTANDING". I have adopted this phrase for use in my own mission statement as it seems to fully encapsulate and solidify the diversity of tools I"ve used in my attempts to unravel the truth. My mission statement therefore and the intention of this book is to find - Clear Understanding.
