Gary Lachman, a New Jersey native, was born on December 24, 1955. He has written a pile of books on occult subjects, as well as gained fame as a rockinroller with the band Blondie.
In his book, A secret history of consciousness (2003) we find a cat's attention held up to a mystical analysis:
If no one plays with it and nothing else arouses its attention, a cat will stare into space and eventually fall asleep. Compared to it, the viewers of the worst sitcom are virtual Prousts.
Lachman's biography of Ouspensky --In Search of P.D. Ouspensky: The Genius in the Shadow of Gurdjieff (2006) is one of a long list of books he wrote, including:
The Quest for Hermes Trismegistus: From Ancient Egypt to the modern world .(2011)
The Dedalus book of literary suicide: dead letters, (2008)
Rudolf Steiner: an introduction to his life and work (2007)
Jung the mystic: the esoteric dimensions of Carl Jung's life and teachings (2010)
and (as a contributor) Around the Outsider: Essays Presented to Colin Wilson on the Occasion of His 80th Birthday.(2011).
