Resumen del Editor

Everything in the physical world is made out of atoms. Atoms are made out of energy. And energy is made out of consciousness. This book shows what reality is made of, how we participate in creating this reality, and how we can create a reality full of love, peace, and joy. Matter and energy do not create Mind. Mind creates matter and energy. When your Mind experiences a sight, sound, touch, taste, or smell, the experiences are coming from the Universal Intelligence. Your individual Mind has the experience. There is no objective reality outside your Mind that you perceive through energy entering tiny orifices in a material body. This book explains that we are creating this reality together. We are more than brothers and sisters in this life. We are one Mind. The message of this book is that we can live happy, fulfilling lives in which we have love, peace, and joy with all people. We just have to learn the truth that we are spiritual beings having a physical experience in Earth School. Our individual progress in becoming more loving, compassionate, and other-centered advances humankind toward the goal of living together in love, peace, and joy.

This is a treasure in so many ways

I am filled with gratitude after finding this book. How essential the topic of experience and consciousness is will leave most of us in awe, the irony of it being practically unknown and unexplored is great.

Finding a book or any other type of work that embraces the current state of knowledge and open-mindedly and unapologetically espouses questions as a valuable tool on the way to evolving understanding is quite an undertaking. I was so relieved to discover that the author did not put on the hat of those who seek "precise explanations of facts" after getting engaged to a given paradigm. If many journeys took this approach, many destinations would be behind us by now.

There are many things to ponder in this book and a good job is done to bring some pattern to reasoning about experience and the nature of being as it applies to our interaction with what's known as reality. These concepts are close to ineffable and I suspect the author recognized that fact when deciding to break the analysis down into bite-sized perspectives and areas of experience.

You won't agree on each conclusion. I didn't. The highest value, though, will be a map that can be followed to explore facets of experience in order to analyze their relation to the "I". "Map" is a word that equally applies to the numerous resources that the book points at for anyone who needs to explore more.

I find this to be one of those rare books that are not limited as those written by the neuroscientist next door, while at the same time being practical enough to try to demystify much of the hazy, up in the air experiences from all sorts of metaphysical sources. Truly a gem.
