Colin Wilson, pt 2

I just posted part 2 of my Colin Wilson appreciation:

”Wilson’s language of the robot remains one of his most durable contributions. In an age saturated by distraction, the notion that we live robotically—failing to notice the miracle of the present because our attention has been captured by habit and utility—feels prescient. His counsel to cultivate wakefulness aligns with contemporary mindfulness practices, yet differs in its insistence on intensity and will. Wilson admired the saints and mystics, but he also admired mountaineers, explorers, and scientists—anyone who demanded more from reality and therefore received more. He thus aligns with a tradition of Western vitalism that includes Nietzsche and Bergson, tempered by the phenomenological insight that meaning is co-created by consciousness.”
