We find ourselves alive on earth with no memory of ever asking to come here. Our hearts ache most of the time. We yearn for meaning, for purpose, for direction, for love.

About the Book

Human Operations Manual explodes the myths that lay hidden at the root of many of our endeavors and institutions. It challenges us to rethink the most basic questions of our existence that we take for granted. It boldly addresses the current not so constructive direction our civilization is taking, and proposes a paradigm shift that is balanced and inclusive (more tolerant).

The true fundamental nature of reality and the nature of 'who and what' a human being is, is dealt with in a refreshing and inspiring way. The future of humanity is bright and beautiful, not dull, depressing and painful. The whole is not greater than the sum of its parts when it is applied to being human. No civilization is greater than any single individual that comprises that civilization, not if the civilization is to be great or to remain great.

Honoring and respecting the diversity seen among all people and natural systems, will open the way to make 'unity out of diversity' possible for us here on planet earth. The patterns in nature are object lessons; however, Human Operations Manual shows us that we must look deep within ourselves with a sincere yearning to know and to understand what is before us.

We will all be pleasantly surprised and encouraged when we honestly allow ourselves to embark on the 'journey' proposed in this manual; for each of us must make the decision of when to begin, and that decision is ours and ours alone. The surprising thing that will be noticed after taking the plunge into self-discovery is that, it is only by being truly vulnerable, not afraid to be ourselves, that we will be able to own the power that is already ours.

Many shy away from anything that mentions God, Creator, Heavenly Father or anything that sounds 'religious.' It must be understood that religion is a personal quest of self-discovery that only you and you alone must make when you are ready. So, for those who are 'God-shy' it is advised that if any such terms are encountered they can be substituted with 'First Principle,' or 'That which was First,' or anything similar that suits your fancy; for indeed, you will still gain new insights that can direct you to higher truths about yourself and the world you live in.

About the Author

Lyndon Andrew Allicock is a native son of the beautiful tropical country, Guyana. He grew up close to the lush tropical jungle and witnessed first hand the law of the jungle. He learnt early from his father David Allicock, respect for everything natural, and on how to survive in the wild.

From infancy, he began his quest for self-realization, which took him on the most amazing journey, first ‘outward,’ then ‘inward.’ He developed a deep love for humanity and respect for nature’s systems, and maintained an organic farm in his spare time.

One of six children, he learnt early how to deal with rivalry and competition, and was never without the guidance of his mother Wendy Allicock, who like all mothers, had one of the most important jobs as a ‘full-time mom.’

Lyndon grew up loving the ‘arts’ and ‘sciences,’ and his insatiable yearning to know new things made sure that he was never at a lost for what to do, because he was always designing and pursuing his own projects of exploration.

He studied the sciences, and later taught it to high school students, whom he was always challenging to go further and even to surpass him. Later on, he branched out into computer science, which opened the door to travel and aided in making possible the meeting of new cultures.

The yearning in his soul to ‘know’ never abated, and the realization of what Reality is, begun to become clearer in his consciousness, and the philosophy found within Human Operations Manual begun to take shape.

Lyndon currently lives in Toronto Canada, and enjoys hiking, camping, traveling and good Chinese cuisine. He loves to cook, and loves sharing his organic produce from his kitchen garden with his friends and neighbors.
