Philosopher, economist, author and adviser.
Arne Klingenberg is the author of three philosophy books with unique takes on happiness, other mind and consciousness matters, and most everything else, to equally empower, enlighten and entertain.
He also wrote more than one thousand philosophical one-liners along his inspirational And The Happy Rabbit Says… messages published daily on Substack.
A descendant of Norwegian Vikings, Protestant pastors and Swiss watch manufacturers, Arne Klingenberg was born in Switzerland (in 1963) where he graduated with tertiary degrees in macro-and microeconomics.
He pursued a successful business career that took him more than 50 times around-the-world; starting out as assistant sales manager flying economy, he eventually got promoted to sales director traveling business, before ending up as CEO in first class. He helped to improve products while talking with factory workers and wined and dined (a.k.a. negotiated) with billionaires.
While traveling for six months a year and living in seven countries, he experienced many cultures, customs and creeds, helping him to unravel some of the mysteries of life, a primary passion since a very early age. He eventually resigned from his demanding position to focus on writing and consulting.
Arne Klingenberg is now the author of three philosophy books with unique takes on happiness, other mind and consciousness matters, and most everything else.
Since 1995 he advises highly accomplished leaders, helping them to solve both personal and corporate problems (in four languages).
For 44 years he enjoys practicing Wing Chun kung fu (having learned directly from great grandmasters Lo Man Kam and Ip Chun; nephew resp. son of Ip Man, the legendary master of Bruce Lee), Nei Gung (an internal healing style taught to him by the abbot of a Buddhist monastery) and a powerful meditation technique he learned from a gifted spiritual healer (the latter two he shared in his first book in 1999).
Arne and his Japanese-born wife of 33 years, Miyuki, now live mostly in the tropical parts of Australia where they’ve designed and built a naturally cooled ecohouse in a still pristine environment, perfectly suited for his continued research and writing, while happily living his philosophy through thick and thin.
His latest book – Beyond Machine Man: Who we really are and why Transhumanism is just an empty promise! – reveals fundamentally important truths, covering a great many subjects like philosophy, consciousness, neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry, transhumanism, posthumanism, mind, unconscious mind, memory, pharmaceuticals, health, identity, ego, spirituality, society, technocracy, AI, robotics, quantum physics, evolution, life, biochemistry, DNA, CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, astrophysics, and simulation theory, while introducing the concepts of Machine Man or Homo Machina, Homo Digitalis, Homo Credo, and Homo Mysticum.
To dig a little bit into Beyond Machine Man, read his Author of the Month feature article on Graham Hancock’s must-read website.
”Arne Klingenberg, author of Beyond Machine Man, is a featured author on my website this month. Arne’s book takes the reader on a deep dive into what it means to be human, the root of our inherent flaws and the nature of consciousness.” ~ Graham Hancock
