Psychology of the Sacred Lie
Psychology of the Sacred Lie by Mickey Rathaur is an eye-opening exploration into the psychology of belief, truth, and human behavior. In a world where superstition, blind faith, and unquestioned traditions dominate many lives, this book dives into the cognitive and emotional foundations of why people hold on to comforting illusions even in the face of reason.
The author, a postgraduate in psychology, draws from years of academic study, personal observation, and research across psychology and neuroscience to present a compelling narrative on how the human mind constructs “sacred lies” — the beliefs we cling to despite their contradictions.
Written in a clear and engaging style, the book makes complex scientific and philosophical ideas accessible to a wide audience. Mickey Rathaur challenges readers to confront their own biases, recognize the mechanisms of self-deception, and embrace critical thinking as a path to intellectual freedom.
This book is not merely about debunking myths but about empowering individuals to think independently. It asks readers to re-examine their worldview, strip away layers of illusion, and replace blind faith with evidence-based understanding.
Ideal for readers fascinated by psychology, human behavior, rationality, and the clash between science and superstition, Psychology of the Sacred Lie is a powerful contribution to modern thought. It is a must-read for seekers of truth and those willing to question deeply held beliefs.
