The Esoteric Art of Living: Metaphysics of Quantum Physics Where Science Meets the Soul: A Modern Guide to Reality, Consciousness, and the Power of the Unseen. What if the laws governing the smallest particles in the universe were actually the blueprints for your greatest potential? In The Esoteric Art of Living, Dennis Waller bridges the gap between the rigorous world of quantum mechanics and the timeless wisdom of metaphysical thought. Building upon the profound foundational work of Joseph Stewart, this book offers a transformative look at how the subatomic world mirrors our internal ...

Philosophers have long puzzled over the nature of space, time, and matter. These inquiries led to the flowering of physics with the Scientific Revolution in the 17th century. Since then, the spectacular success of modern physics might appear to have made philosophy irrelevant. But new theories have created a new range of philosophical concerns: What is the shape of space? Is time travel possible? Is there a grand unified theory that unites all of physics?

This mind-bending tour of metaphysics applies philosophy to the forefront of today's knowledge. Over the course of 24 fascinating lectures, Professor Johnson thinks through the big questions about humans and the universe: The relationship between the mind and the brain, how consciousness emerges from neurochemical processes, the existence of God, human free will, the possibility of time travel, and whether we live in a multiverse or even a computer simulation.

The basic principles that Bergson articulates, especially his way of thinking about reality as a dynamic process and his view of human beings as creative and evolving, should be helpful to anyone who seeks to go beyond simply dealing with the practical demands of daily life and consider the nature of things. Of special importance is Bergson’s claim that it is both possible and necessary to know from the inside rather than confining our attention to external perspectives and points of view. Intuition is able to get beyond what is relative and place us inside reality.

My Big TOE: Awakening, written by a nuclear physicist in the language of contemporary culture, unifies science and philosophy, physics and metaphysics, mind and matter, purpose and meaning, the normal and the paranormal. The entirety of human experience (mind, body, and spirit) including both our objective and subjective worlds is brought together under one seamless scientific understanding.

The Last Piece of the Universe In this book, Agustín Galán explores the philosophical implications of elementary particle physics—the search for what might be considered the ultimate layer of reality—through a wide range of influential popular-science works published in recent decades. Designed to help readers understand the most recent discoveries and theories in modern astrophysics and fundamental physics, the book approaches science from an unusual angle: by examining the philosophical consequences of the concepts used by scientists themselves. In doing so, it offers one of the ...

To understand the true nature of the Akashic Records, one must look beyond the physical world and into the realm of pure consciousness. Derived from the Sanskrit word Akasha, meaning "ether" or "sky," the Akashic Records represent the ultimate energetic database of the universe. They are not a physical location or a collection of dusty scrolls, but rather a vibrational field that permeates all of existence. If you were to visualize them, you might imagine a vast, infinite cosmic library—one that exists outside of time and space. Within this library, every soul has its own unique volume, a...

My Big TOE, written by a nuclear physicist in the language of contemporary culture, unifies science and philosophy, physics and metaphysics, mind and matter, purpose and meaning, the normal and the paranormal. The entirety of human experience (mind, body, and spirit) including both our objective and subjective worlds is brought together under one seamless scientific understanding. Section 5 presents the formal reality model in detail while Section 6 provides the wrap-up that puts everything discussed into an easily understood perspective.

Section 3 develops the interface and interaction between we the people and our digital consciousness reality. It derives and explains the characteristics, origins, dynamics, and function of ego, love, and free will. It derives our larger purpose. Finally, Section 3 develops the psi uncertainty principle as it explains and interrelates psi phenomena, free will, love, consciousness evolution, reality, human purpose, entropy and physics.

Most people walk through life convinced that the world around them is solid, stable, and exactly as it appears. A chair is a chair. A self is a self. Reality seems obvious—until you begin to question it. What if the things you take for granted don’t actually exist the way you assume? What if the thoughts, beliefs, and identities you cling to are nothing more than useful illusions? Madhyamaka is the most powerful and mind-shifting philosophy in Buddhist thought. It doesn’t hand you new beliefs—it takes a sledgehammer to the old ones, revealing a world where everything is ...

Alfred North Whitehead was among the first initiates into the twentieth century’s new cosmological story. This book both sets Whitehead’s philosophy of organism in historical context and brings it into conversation with key elements of contemporary scientific cosmology—including relativistic, quantum, evolutionary, and complexity theories. It lays bare the inadequacy of the materialistic-mechanistic metaphysical interpretation of these theories and exemplifies the contributions Whitehead’s cosmological scheme can make to the urgent transdisciplinary project of integrating natural ...

Drawing intriguing parallels between the present era of quantum physics and past episodes of scientific confusion, Beyond the Quantum tells the story of how pilot-wave theory was discovered and abandoned, revived and reconstructed, and how today it can pave the way to a new and radical physics beyond the quantum.

Aristotle's Metaphysics was the first major study of the subject of metaphysics - in other words, an inquiry into 'first philosophy', or 'wisdom'. It differs from Physics which is concerned with the natural world: things which are subject to the laws of nature, things that move and change, are measurable. In Metaphysics, the study falls on 'being qua being' - being insofar as it is being; the causes and principles of being, the causes and principles of substances.

What if the past isn't "gone," but simply "archived"? In The Cosmic Hard Drive Hypothesis, Clayton Louis Turnage takes his groundbreaking Conscious Computational Cosmology (CCC) framework to its most provocative conclusion yet. If the universe is fundamentally informational, then reality is not a series of fleeting moments—it is a vast, permanent database of every possible configuration of existence. Drawing on the "It from Bit" theories of John Archibald Wheeler and the cutting-edge mechanics of quantum physics, Turnage reveals a cosmos that operates with the efficiency of a world-class ...

This recording contains four important and related works by Heidegger: 'What Is Philosophy', 'What Is Metaphysics', 'On the Essence of Truth' and 'The Question of Being'.

In Beyond Biocentrism, acclaimed biologist Robert Lanza and astronomer Bob Berman take the listener on an intellectual thrill ride as they reexamine everything we thought we knew about life, death, the universe, and the nature of reality itself. The first step is acknowledging that our existing model of reality is looking increasingly creaky in the face of recent scientific discoveries.

Science may be known for banishing the demons of superstition from the modern world. Yet just as the demon-haunted world was being exorcized by the enlightening power of reason, a new kind of demon mischievously materialized in the scientific imagination itself. Scientists began to employ hypothetical beings to perform certain roles in thought experiments―experiments that can only be done in the imagination―and these impish assistants helped scientists achieve major breakthroughs that pushed forward the frontiers of science and technology.

In the preface to the 2004 edition, Paul Davies writes, "If the laws of the universe really are a sort of cosmic blueprint, as I suggest, they may also be a blueprint for survival." This critically acclaimed book explains how recent scientific advances are transforming our understanding of the emergence of complexity and organization in the universe. Melding a variety of ideas and disciplines from science and technology, Davies presents his provocative theory on the source of the universe's creative potency.

What is the universe made of — matter, energy, or something deeper? In The Architecture of Reality, Clayton Louis Turnage explores one of the most profound questions in human thought: Is reality fundamentally physical, or is it structured in a way that points beyond material explanation? Drawing from geometry, thermodynamics, cosmology, information theory, and contemporary philosophy of mind, this book traces a bold but disciplined inquiry into: The emergence of structure from undifferentiated unity The geometric foundations of space and symmetry Entropy and the arrow of time The ...

This program is read by the author. A fun, dazzling exploration of the strange numbers that illuminate the ultimate nature of reality. For particularly brilliant theoretical physicists like James Clerk Maxwell, Paul Dirac, or Albert Einstein, the search for mathematical truths led to strange new...
