This is not a work on physics, nor is it a tract on personality, but rather an effort to link them together in order to examine the cognitive relationship of humans with their surroundings. We explore the interaction between the human mind and energy-matter; the adoption of quantum mechanics allows us to bridge the distinction between physics and psychology. We invoke here the principles of quantum mechanics, symbols, and great myths from Tantalus, Sisyphus, and Prometheus, through the Kabbalah and the Gnostic religions, to great historical figures in art and literature. Our personality theory, first expounded in The Myth of Tantalus (1979), is expanded here into truly interdisciplinary research, examining the relationship of humans with God and the universe.
