Bhan Tugh Paperback – December 29, 2014

Steve expands the general human design knowledgebase with this. This really is 5 star material. Not only does he cover the basics but he goes into "advanced" areas and makes them simple. He takes areas that are STEEPED in complex language and hundreds of dollars of courses/practitioners and actually makes them simple for just 10 bucks. This fine tunes design giving it it's subtleties the message originally intended to have. The bhan tugh site also gives nutrition information which Steve goes into detail in this book. Experimenting with nutrition over the last week has helped me to realize how much food has had an impact on my being, something that all human design students should learn but almost never hear about. Theres something truly fundamental about that part of it alone. All my life i knew i had a unique relationship to food but just couldnt put my finger on it exactly. Going from diet this or that, from this miracle food to the next, feeling miserable and agitated looking to get rid of my sensitive state of health and the decisions from my weakened/irritable states of being. Food may be the biggest homogenizer we experience in our lives. There's also a whole section on cognition that never gets touched in general design education which is surprisingly revealing and foretelling...what it means to be a species in transition. Some of us more human, some more rave, everybody a mix of the two. You get all of that and theres a few hundred more pages of usable material to keep coming back to that expands general design knowledge in both practicality AND outlook. Taking it back a notch, the way most people manipulate each other in this world IS actually barbaric (by design of course), and then comes human design which is by comparison advanced and can give some relief, but even design can become crude (even damaging depending on cognition) in it's goal to simplify everything down to just a few words and becoming too rigid. Something that is surprisingly helpful is the feeling I get in Steve's writing that through these species sized transitions in time nothing needed to be taught in the first place. All this education is a privilege. The species would have transitioned anyway. So yes, we can use design as a sort of course correction system but it is still just a smaller part of a much greater flow of things. As Steve says, Bhan Tugh isn't just something to "do", its a message. I dont want to come off like I'm not a fan of design though, this knowledge gives so much information it's beautiful. Steve finishes with an excerpt on death reminding us we are the experience of witnessing evolution from this unique vantage....once it's over, that's it. Then a whole new vantage may be created. We have the privilege to live a life that was designed for the passenger OR to live one running deep in the not self. This makes up the illusion of differentness and in truth we are actually the thing we cant quite pin down rather than these disposable bodies. But equipped with this knowledge THAT is what gives us our freedom. So in conclusion, for just the information on cognition, nutrition, and our species transition this book easily gets 5 stars from me.

This book was amazing. I have been reveling in Human Design for the last couple of years and had questions about it that I couldn't find the answers to. This book helps put the pieces together with further analysis of the body graph. Even if you have never heard of Human Design the author does a very good job of explaining the differences of our individual paths in a way that makes logical sense. I recommend this book to everyone for a taste of what humanity is giving birth to as well as who we as individuals really are.

I feel the knowledge held in this book cradles our limitations and allows them to be retrained into sustainable substance that will allow us to find our way back to singularity through knowing and understanding the foundation of uniqueness.

Scary and pretty

Good review on Holistic Analysis and Radical Transformation in Human Design System. Steve has not distorted the original information from Ra, even he renamed some things his own way, he has organized all of this information in good way

This book is a blessing for anyone interested in Human Design, as it provides some of the "deeper" aspects of HD, without having to "wait", live your "S & A", or pay out the nose for massive amounts of written or spoken material, just to be able to extract the basic yet valuable information presented in Steve's book. If you're into HD and looking to deepen your knowledge of how this fascinating system works, this book (at least the Kindle edition) is well worth the money.I give it 3 stars for a few reasons. First of all, Steve really needs to hire an editor. The grammar in this manual is pathetic! My first read I spotted hundreds of errors, and I find that rather distracting while trying to learn about a system. Secondly, HD is theoretical at best, and presenting it as some kind of scientific revelation about who you are genetically is quackery, plain and simple. It's a numbers game (think astrology meets the Rubik's Cube) and a "hand fits glove" new age system, not a science. While much of it (especially PHS) is amazingly accurate, it's only right on about a percentage of what it claims to know about you. I'm an active part of the HD community, and I intermingle with both fanatics and casual users. I have to say, the fanatics are as bad as any other culty scene, while the casual users are a lot of fun and HD adds a nice dynamic to conversation. But, it's by no means a blueprint of your genetic makeup! Thirdly, there's a a little too much personal opinion in Steve's interpretation of what the different aspects of the system say about an individual--which is common among HD "analysts" and "guides". And, like all the other authors in the field, he neglects to back up his views with any facts or reasoning as to why there are extreme variations between people with nearly identical charts. This would, of course, be due to the individual's conditioning. But, I was kind of hoping for a bit more of an objective look into HD, as we already have multitudes of subjective material regarding this system.

Human Design is life changing one correct decision at a time - for those that respond to this and going radical!

Interesting holistic approach that takes numerology astrology and ancient chinese wisdom

definitely Not for everyone but W*O*W what a book... what a ride Human Beings are into & about to dive into... spooky freaky &&& marvelous! Human design made every accessible! Thanks!

Thank you very much for this book. It is a very good manual for students of Human Design Sistem! And not only for principiants.

A fabulous book that simplifies a complex subject without dumbing it down and losing the essence. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it and would recommend it to anyone interested in exploring their true potential.

He tried to explain HD without the word that is related to HD. Easy and Simple. Great job

Table of Contents is at the end of the book. That's a heads-up for future readers. The first two-thirds of the book is a restatement of material in his first book, "The Prophecy of Ra Uru Hu & The Human Design System." The last section explains the categories found on Steve Rhodes' website, where you can get your own Bhan Tugh chart--a deeper level of the Human Design chart. This last was all new to me, and I wish he had gone into more detail about it. But perhaps there is no more detail. From what I can tell, Ra was famously laconic. A little off-topic: I had a phone reading with Steve, and it was fascinating. He is obviously passionate about the material and would be a very good teacher. In the book, he is concerned with explaining things clearly, rather than using the standard Human Design language. I found that helpful.
