Description
The title Muir's Montage is derived from the fact that when he read his poetry in coffee houses in the 60's (especially @ the Thirsty Ear in Morristown NJ) he used the nom de plume Alexander Muir because Jack Miller seemed so commonplace.
The early poems were heavily influence by his drug & alcohol abuse. The later poems deal with the intricacies of relationships & lost & unrequited love. Although an agnostic he believes there is a power for good in the universe. When you try to do good you get help. Where that help comes from is open for debate.
Words are the "Arcanum Arcanum." He believes there is a hidden dimension to words and word meanings and derivations hold many mysteries and in that occult dimension lies a mystical significance. Before the accelerating expansion of the universe was known it was believed that at some point the expansion would end and gravity (Sidera mordax) would cause the Cosmos to contract to its starting point in a "Big Crunch."
Although the poetry is quite dark the author strives to remain optimistic. The central theme in the poetry is that of survival. You can only escape thepain of living by deadening the senses with drugs & alcohol and this only works for a relatively short time. Then you must face everything. There is no escape from yourself.

Why Hydroviews and The Urantia Book?
Wisdom Accelerators is built upon a unique framework I call Hydroviews-perspectives shaped by the facts of science, the laws of nature, and the spiritual insights of The Urantia Book. I coined the term to reflect a way of seeing that flows like water: adaptive, clear, life-giving, and grounded in truth.
In my own journey-from unexpected places of challenge to deep spiritual discovery-the teachings of The Urantia Book offered a profound cosmic context and personal guidance. It revealed to me a universe of purpose, spiritual presence, and evolutionary meaning.
Hydroviews emerged as a way to bridge that celestial wisdom with the empirical knowledge of our physical world. Through this lens, each chapter in Wisdom Accelerators becomes more than a lesson-it becomes a living, flowing invitation to align with truth, beauty, and goodness.
I chose The Urantia Book as the backbone because it harmonizes spiritual revelation with intellectual integrity. And I use Hydroviews as the structure because they honor the interconnectedness of all things-mind, body, spirit, and the evolving soul.
Together, they form a blueprint for awakening inner wisdom and advancing planetary consciousness-one accelerator at a time.
