B. Holder
Brain Holder is the visionary architect of NIL (Natural Intelligence Liberation) psychology and the creator of the Church of NIL, Inc., a non-religious, non-governmental organization established in The Free State of Florida. Its mission is committed to personal and collective transformation. Subsequent to undergoing a radical transformation from his previous identity “Garrick”, Brain created the Garrick Formula (1=0) to alleviate the conflict that arose from his human ego. His life’s work is devoted to assisting others in reaching the “Zero State”—a place free from egocentric thought and identity.
“Our culture has taught us that the self is a ‘1’—a unique and valuable being deserving of special care, attention, and affirmation. NIL exposes the freeing reality: 1 = 0 -B. Holder, NIL

THE GARRICK PARADOX: NIL
THE GENESIS OF A PHILOSOPHY FORGED BY OVERTHINKING
