Book Description
This book describes our gradual awareness of a vast, previously concealed Universe. It is a story of expanding horizons and the discovery of invisible worlds. This voyage of discovery is presented within universal themes, such as invisibility, motion, content, form, impermanence, violence and emptiness, beginnings and ends. These are topics that concern us all, helping us take the Universe personally, so each chapter begins with the human aspect of some of these themes. The book is additionally broadened by including the perceptions of artists, poets and writers, as well as with line drawings that forcefully compact a scientific insight.

Cosmic Journeys
Author: Rosalind McKnight
Publisher: Panta Rei Press
ISBN: 9781948929561
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
Explorers are known for the journeys they take. Rosie McKnight explored the vast nonphysical dimensions of consciousness. With famed out-of-body researcher Robert Monroe, she helped to further the understanding of human consciousness, and to demonstrate beyond doubt that we are more than our physical bodies. Many of these pioneering sessions are presented here almost word for word, as they were taped, along with her warm and inspiring observations of Bob Monroe and the early days of The Monroe Institute (TMI). Here are explorations of non-human energy systems, interactions with highly evolved beings, concepts about the makeup of the many levels of the universe, views of the afterlife and the animal dimensions, the nature of healing and guidance, a look at the future, and much more. Here is the pursuit of the true meaning of science fearlessly mapping wherever the inquisitive mind takes us. Through the courage of Rosie McKnight and other explorers at TMI, we are given, as Laurie Monroe writes in her introduction, "a clarity of perception and a sense of the greatness that is beyond our everyday life."

Believing Bullshit
Author: Stephen Law
Publisher: Prometheus Books
ISBN: 1616144122
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This book identifies eight key mechanisms that can transform a set of ideas into a psychological flytrap. The author suggests that, like the black holes of outer space, from which nothing, not even light, can escape, our contemporary cultural landscape contains numerous intellectual black-holes—belief systems constructed in such a way that unwary passers-by can similarly find themselves drawn in. While such self-sealing bubbles of belief will most easily trap the gullible or poorly educated, even the most intelligent and educated of us are potentially vulnerable. Some of the world’s greatest thinkers have fallen in, never to escape. This witty, insightful critique will help immunize readers against the wiles of cultists, religious and political zealots, conspiracy theorists, promoters of flaky alternative medicines, and others by clearly setting out the tricks of the trade by which such insidious belief systems are created and maintained.

The Thieves of the Hereafter
Author: DR.Haitham Talaat
Publisher: مركز تبصير
ISBN: 9776713475
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
I present this project to all the students of religious knowledge and all the seekers of truth be they Arabs or non-Arabs, Muslims or non-Muslims, believers or atheists, for indeed the arguments presented in these books are a discourse to everyone regardless of race and intellectual or religious orientation. The books of this series are written in a somewhat simple lanuguage, yet they require a careful reading of their concise paragraphs, for they are not a mere presentation of information, but an attempt to build consolidated knowledge. In fact, instead of deconstructing each misconception on its own I laid the foundation for atheism criticism in order to enhance the reader’s certainty of faith rather than indoctrinate him. I do not claim that what I have written is flawless, for this project is but one tiny step on a long road paved with thousands of arguments. Indeed, no one can comprehend the marvelous works and the wonders of God’s Power and Wisdom or praise Him as He deserves to be praised. God says: Say: If the sea were to become ink to record the Words of my Lord, indeed the sea would be all used up before the Words of my Lord are exhausted, and it would be the same even if We were to bring an equal amount of ink. (The Qur'an 18:109) I presented the content of these books in a question-and-answer system in order to facilitate focused attention and information retrieval. In addition to the links (URLs) to the resources that I used, the books of this series contain also pictorial illustrations from the research sources so that my argumentation is well documented and readers can easily verify the authenticity and reliability of the data presented. Kindly remember me in your good supplications. I pray God the Most Generous to make this project beneficial and to reward us all.

Cosmic Jackpot
Author: Paul Davies
Publisher: Houghton Mifflin Harcourt
ISBN: 9780547415765
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
Cosmic Jackpot is Paul Davies’s eagerly awaited return to cosmology, the successor to his critically acclaimed bestseller The Mind of God. Here he tackles all the "big questions," including the biggest of them all: Why does the universe seem so well adapted for life? In his characteristically clear and elegant style, Davies shows how recent scientific discoveries point to a perplexing fact: many different aspects of the cosmos, from the properties of the humble carbon atom to the speed of light, seem tailor-made to produce life. A radical new theory says it’s because our universe is just one of an infinite number of universes, each one slightly different. Our universe is bio-friendly by accident -- we just happened to win the cosmic jackpot. While this "multiverse" theory is compelling, it has bizarre implications, such as the existence of infinite copies of each of us and Matrix-like simulated universes. And it still leaves a lot unexplained. Davies believes there’s a more satisfying solution to the problem of existence: the observations we make today could help shape the nature of reality in the remote past. If this is true, then life -- and, ultimately, consciousness -- aren’t just incidental byproducts of nature, but central players in the evolution of the universe. Whether he’s elucidating dark matter or dark energy, M-theory or the multiverse, Davies brings the leading edge of science into sharp focus, provoking us to think about the cosmos and our place within it in new and thrilling ways.
