Living Light Language
Author: Bala Deva
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 1475979967
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 57
Book Description
‘Living Light Language’ reveals a mysterious metaphysical process by which the human being is illuminated in consciousness development. Describing how the ‘unseen world’ of ‘Spirit’ is comprehended by those of us in the 3rd dimensional plane of material existence through the medium of ‘Love and Light’ is illuminated upon. Out of an infinite variety of ways by which this divine inspiration flows, there are numerous examples given. One such example is given through an understanding of sacred geometry. How, these patterns of transformation are perceived on all levels of existence and contain vast amounts of information encoded into their very form. Human beings are constantly ‘downloading’ and digesting these symbols, which eventually rise into the conscious state as a ‘revelation’ or insight into progressive development. Such transformation comes about through the qualities of sound and light which bring evolutionary information.

Let There Be Light
Author: Howard Smith, Ph.D.
Publisher: New World Library
ISBN: 1577317467
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 306
Book Description
In Let There Be Light, Howard Smith, a research astrophysicist and traditionally observant Jew, explores how modern scientific understandings of the cosmos complement Judaism's ancient mystical theology, the Kabbalah. He argues that science and religion are not only compatible, but that a healthy, productive dialogue between the two sheds light on ethics, free will, and the nature of life, while at the same time rejecting fundamentalist misinterpretation and the pseudoscience of creationism. Written for a general audience, yet supported by the most current and accurate scientific research, the book discusses topics such as modern quantum mechanics and mystical notions of awareness; how Kabbalah's ten sefirot mirror the developing phases of an inflationary universe; and the surprising parallels that exist between the Big Bang theory and Kabbalah's origin theory. Smith delves into complex ideas without resorting to jargon or mathematical equations, creating an intelligent, authoritative work accessible to all readers.

Light
Author: Bruce Watson
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1620405598
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 313
Book Description
Light begins at Stonehenge, where crowds cheer a solstice sunrise. After sampling myths explaining First Light, the story moves on to early philosophers' queries, then through the centuries, from Buddhist temples to Biblical scripture, when light was the soul of the divine. Battling darkness and despair, Gothic architects crafted radiant cathedrals while Dante dreamed a "heaven of pure light." Later, following Leonardo's advice, Renaissance artists learned to capture light on canvas. During the Scientific Revolution, Galileo gathered light in his telescope, Descartes measured the rainbow, and Newton used prisms to solidify the science of optics. But even after Newton, light was an enigma. Particle or wave? Did it flow through an invisible "ether"? Through the age of Edison and into the age of lasers, Light reveals how light sparked new wonders--relativity, quantum electrodynamics, fiber optics, and more. Although lasers now perform everyday miracles, light retains its eternal allure. "For the rest of my life," Einstein said, "I will reflect on what light is." Light explores and celebrates such curiosity.
