A Neuroscientist's Discovery of the Ineffable Mysteries of the Universe

Resumen del Editor

• Shares data and meta-analysis from a large volume of extremely sophisticated experiments that provide proof for the existence of psi phenomena

• Explores evidence of past lives, intuitive knowing, and other spiritual phenomena

• Reveals the author’s own inexplicable experiences as well as her conversations with scientific colleagues, high-level experts, and government officials

Neuroscientist Mona Sobhani, Ph.D., details her transformation from diehard materialist to open-minded spiritual seeker and shares the extensive research she discovered on past lives, karma, and the complex interactions of mind and matter. She reveals her conversations about spirituality, consciousness, and anomalous occurrences with scientific colleagues as well as high-level experts and government officials, as she searched for proof of a meaningful cosmos. She discovered that psi research has been conducted on a grand scale for more than a century—by hundreds of scientists with hundreds of thousands of participants—and that there exists substantial evidence for the reality of psi. She examines meta-analyses of these experiments, such as that of the Ganzfield tests, which showed the odds against chance of 12 billion to 1—throwing our current scientific materialist paradigm into question.

Providing a deep dive into the literature of psychology, quantum physics, neuroscience, philosophy, and esoteric texts, Sobhani also explores the relationship between psi phenomena, the transcendence of space and time, and spirituality. Culminating with the author’s serious reckoning with one of the foundational principles of neuroscience—scientific materialism—this illuminating book shows that the mysteries of human experience go far beyond what the present scientific paradigm can comprehend and leaves open the possibility of a participatory, meaningful Universe.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“In Proof of Spiritual Phenomena, neuroscientist Mona Sobhani, Ph.D., takes the reader through her journey from being a skeptically oriented scientific materialist to realizing there’s much more to the Universe. This entertaining and easy-to-read book weaves Sobhani’s personal experiences with a diverse body of credible science to demonstrate the desperate need for a revised scientific meta-paradigm. It is this sort of courage and intellectual honesty that will be required for science—and society—to truly evolve.”—Mark Gober, author of An End to Upside Down Thinking and host of Where Is My Mind? podcast

“Thank the Universe for Mona Sobhani! Is it any coincidence that neuroscientists, after looking carefully at the brain to answer age-old questions, are starting to turn to spirituality? Nope. It’s because they don’t find what they are looking for in the materialist paradigm, but they know what they’re looking for is real. Sobhani leads the pack with her brilliant and vulnerable take on what it means for her and other scientists to turn the corner from materialism to post-materialist thought—and why it’s necessary to explain human experience, including and especially human spiritual experience. By letting us into her journey, she shows us parts of ourselves that are learning a new way of knowing, and then she supports our growing knowledge with her hard-won wisdom.”—Julia Mossbridge, Ph.D., affiliate professor at the University of San Diego, cofounder of the Instit

“Mona Sobhani is a ‘flipped’ scientist, a neuroscientist whose mechanical-materialist worldview was turned upside down and inside out by a series of honest life experiences that she refused to deny and instead insisted on thinking through. Her book is a page-turning journey filled with everything from coffee ground divinations, mediums, and intuitives; through past lives, secret government psychical research programs, and the new psychedelic research; to the latest scientific and philosophical visions of a conscious, intentional, and profoundly meaningful cosmos. Her message? The old order of knowledge is passing away. Let it go. The new world is taking shape in and as us. Let it be.”—Jeffrey J. Kripal, Ph.D., author of The Flip: Epiphanies of Mind and the Future of Knowledge

Amazing book; throughly enjoyed it

I really enjoyed this book. Very interesting in all aspects and relatable. Highly recommend this book

Needs a professional narrator

Fascinating content for the open minded. I feel bad criticizing this book, because I’m grateful to the author for all the work she has done, but I must say that her sing song reading style was really distracting.

I loved this book!

great freaking book! I listened to it from start to finish. definitely recommend. I only wish that it were longer.

brave new soulful scientist

why do they require 15 words I'm just dictating it so I guess I can get 50 words what a stupid requirement

This was very much my story too!

Loved and enjoyed this book! Partially because of my own spiritual journey and partially because by telling her story one senses how difficult but possible change is for us all!

This book is a paradigm shifter

The author has an excellent voice that helps this topic digest very deep concepts

A spectacular read (listen)

The author is tremendously eloquent, insightful, and soulful. The work is the epitome of well-researched, authentic, and thought provoking. I'm grateful for this book, and this author's presence in this world.

interesting yet naive and cringe at times

An ok listen that was difficult to listen to at times because of how inane and cringe woo woo in all the wrong ways it became. I'm glad there was a personal journey. I think everyone who's lived past 30 has had one. very full of herself to the point if not even being able to imagine her story as non unique. I think she spends too much time on that, in a very solipsistic, hey look at me I had a spiritual journey and now I'm enlightened kind of way. (think Simpsons nerdy kid voice). also I had an ego death, look at me , I'm so much more spiritual than I used to be now. I don't mean to be negative for the sake of negativity. I'm just skeptical of the new age California movement, even when it seems to move in the correct vicinity it still is just another layer of self deception and ego. seeking ego death is very egotistical imo and misses the point of existence entirely. obviously we chose to be here and to have an ego for a reason. why do we think in our limited perspective now we're somehow smarter than we were before this life choosing to come here and gain an ego?!.

the evidence she mentions is good. the chapters on the reviews of that evidence are good. the rest, especially the rehash of more dogma, like patriarchy, climate change, etc. just went to show how much further the journey will be before enlightenment.
