Meet the Founder

Mark Abraham — born Mozaffar Ebrahimzadeh — is a philosopher, author, and inventor whose work explores the deep tension between instinct and intellect, and the consequences this tension has on human behavior. He earned two degrees in international politics from universities in New York and Texas, developing a deep interest in power, human systems, and global decision-making.

Yet even as he advanced through political theory, a deeper question persisted: why does human conflict endure despite intelligence, knowledge, and progress? Seeking answers beyond the limits of political science, Abraham turned to the philosophy of mind and psychology — where he studied the inner architecture of human nature: how we think, feel, choose, and act, and why we so often act against our better judgment.

Through years of study, he arrived at a pivotal insight: for more than two thousand years, human beings have been examined primarily through the lens of intellect, while instinct — the dominant driver of behavior — has been largely overlooked. This omission, he argues, is the missing link that has kept many phenomenal human enigmas unresolved. It also reveals the organic roots of our love of arts, spiritual gravitation, and recurring unjustifiable decisions.

This realization became the foundation of Abraham's original theoretical framework, presented in his six-volume Meet Your Mind series, collectively titled The Interactions Between Instincts and Intellect and Their Impact on Human Behavior. Two additional works nearing completion — The Man Who Attended His Own Funeral and What Is Human? — extend his inquiry into consciousness, identity, and the human condition.
