Bruce J. MacLennan, Ph.D. is a professor and author with forty years of experience studying ancient Greek philosophy and religion. He has published journal articles and book chapters on Neoplatonic spiritual practices, Jungian psychology, and neurotheology. He is Associate Professor Emeritus of Computer Science at the University of Tennessee where he had a special interest in neural networks, swarm robotics and emergent phenomena in artificial systems.  Links for Bruce: Bruce's book, The Wisdom of Hypatia: Ancient Spiritual Practices for a More Meaningful Life | https://shorturl.at/fgtzQ About Bruce | https://web.eecs.utk.edu/~bmaclenn/ Bruce's articles on Jung and Platonism: https://shorturl.at/goOQ5 Support Third Eye Drops: ?
