Acerca de esta escucha
The Universe is a very big place and has many mysteries. Most people don’t realize just how mysterious it is. Scientists are stumped by many of the conundrums which Astronomy reveals.
In this book, I want to give listeners a sense of the grandeur, mystery, and puzzles which the Universe poses to scientists. When you realize how incredible our Universe really is you may be surprised.
We used to think the Sun was the center of the Universe. Now we know our solar system is just one of billions.
Most of the matter in the Universe is also missing.
And there must be alien life somewhere - you will see the logic and discoveries about this in later chapters.
I also have interspersed some chapters which cover my beliefs in the overall consciousness of the Universe which should provide some interesting perspectives.
There are some amazing facts about our Universe which will also give you some food for thought.
Overall, I hope this book amazes you about what we know about the Universe today and the incredible mysteries which we are just beginning to explore.

What are the bounds of thought? And how do we know if an idea is completely insane, or just a paradigm change? In this audiobook, we explore Insanity, Crazy, Strange, and Disruptive ideas, and just some thoughts and stories. And what are disruptive ideas or ideas which break currently accepted paradigms? My goal is for you, the listener, to expand your minds to think "outside of the box" and not immediately condemn or make fun of new ideas just because they sound weird or wacky. Who knows? These new ideas might actually change the world for the better.

How many times have you hit a rough patch in your life and wished for someone to guide you through it? Someone who could show you what to do when you had to make a tough decision? When life overwhelms us, we humans rely on psychologists, life-coaches, or family and friends to help us deal with whatever is troubling us. But these “earthly” helpers have their limits.

From simple practices such as walking, working, and getting lost to deep meditations on topics like prayer and pronouncing blessings, Taylor reveals concrete ways to discover the sacred in the small things we do and see. Something as ordinary as hanging clothes on a clothesline becomes an act of devotion if we pay attention to what we are doing and take time to attend to the sights, smells, and sounds around us. Making eye contact with the cashier at the grocery store becomes a moment of true human connection.

How do you define “growing up?” Does it mean you achieve certain cultural benchmarks - a steady income, paying taxes, marriage, and children? Or does it mean leaving behind the expectations of others and growing into the person you were meant to be? Here acclaimed author James Hollis guides you through 21 areas for self-inquiry and growth - such as how to exorcise the ghosts of your past, when to choose meaning over happiness, how to construct a mature spirituality, and how to seize permission to be who you really are.

Neville Goddard was a profoundly influential teacher and author. He was not part of the "new age", "new thought", or any other such group. His writings are unique and powerful. This little self-help gem puts forth the idea that our feelings are far more powerful in shaping our lives than we think - and how, using an unusual method to control them, we can greatly improve our attitudes and our lives.

Stephen Hawking not only unraveled some of the universe's greatest mysteries but also believed science plays a critical role in fixing problems here on Earth. Now, as we face immense challenges on our planet - including climate change, the threat of nuclear war, and the development of artificial intelligence - he turns his attention to the most urgent issues facing us. Will humanity survive? Should we colonize space? Does God exist?

Neil deGrasse Tyson has a talent for guiding readers through the mysteries of outer space with stunning clarity and almost childlike enthusiasm. This collection of his essays from Natural History magazine explores a myriad of cosmic topics. Tyson introduces us to the physics of black holes by explaining what would happen to our bodies if we fell into one; he also examines the needless friction between science and religion, and notes Earth's status as "an insignificantly small speck in the cosmos".

The number-one best-selling author of The Future of the Mind traverses the frontiers of astrophysics, artificial intelligence, and technology to offer a stunning vision of man's future in space, from settling Mars to traveling to distant galaxies. Formerly the domain of fiction, moving human civilization to the stars is increasingly becoming a scientific possibility - and a necessity. Whether in the near future due to climate change and the depletion of finite resources or in the distant future due to catastrophic cosmological events, humans will one day need to leave Earth.

In 1974 a message was beamed towards the stars by the giant Arecibo telescope in Puerto Rico, a brief blast of radio waves designed to alert extraterrestrial civilizations to our existence. Of course, we don't know if such civilizations really exist. But for the past six decades a small cadre of researchers have been on a quest to find out, as part of SETI, the search for extraterrestrial intelligence.

Born expands the concepts of law of attraction exponentially and awesomely simplifies everything you think you know about the power of self-creation. Born is not a audiobook about affirmations, visioning, dark energy, self-protection, or waiting for directions from god, the guides or the angels, karma, or struggle. It is an audiobook about directing energy, knowing, neutrality, self-actualization, knowing you are the power, claiming your desires, and easy creation.
