Book excerpt: A hopeful and controversial view of the universe and ourselves based on the principles of quantum physics, offering a way of making our lives and the world better, with a foreword by Deepak Chopra In Infinite Potential, physical chemist Lothar Schäfer presents a stunning view of the universe as interconnected, nonmaterial, composed of a field of infinite potential, and conscious. With his own research as well as that of some of the most distinguished scientists of our time, Schäfer moves us from a reality of Darwinian competition to cooperation, a meaningless universe to a meaningful one, and a disconnected, isolated existence to an interconnected one. In so doing, he shows us that our potential is infinite and calls us to live in accordance with the order of the universe, creating a society based on the cosmic principle of connection, emphasizing cooperation and community.
Download or read book The Spiritual Universe written by Fred Alan Wolf and published by Red Wheel/Weiser. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a National Book Award winner, “methodical and clear . . . provides physics-phobics a wide bridge to understanding some often arcane material” (Booklist). Why do we believe in the soul? Does it actually exist? If so, what is it? Does it differ from the self? Does it survive the body after death? In The Spiritual Universe, Fred Alan Wolf brings the most modern perspective of quantum physics to the most ancient questions of religion and philosophy. Taking the reader on a fascinating tour of both Western and Eastern thought, Wolf explains the differing view of the soul in the works of Plato, Aristotle, and St. Thomas, the ancient Egyptian’s belief in the nine forms of the soul, the Qabalistic idea of the soul acting in secret to bring spiritual order to a chaotic universe of matter and energy, and the Buddhist vision of a “nonsoul.” Wolf then mounts a defense of the soul against its modern critics who see it as nothing more than the physical body. “One of the few pathfinders who have discovered the versatility and potency of the new quantum paradigm based on consciousness.” —Amit Goswami, Professor of Physics and author of The Self-Aware Universe “The questions are exhilarating and the conclusions are properly mysterious and profoundly inconclusive . . . you’ll love the spirited journey.” —Thomas Moore, author of Care of the Soul and The Re-Enchantment of Everyday Life “Wolf is a new Thales for a new physics of the soul; his book will blow your mind and quicken your spirit.” —Michael Grosso, Ph.D., author of The Millennium Myth and Frontiers of the Soul
Download or read book Spiritual Science written by Steve Taylor and published by Watkins Media Limited. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is often assumed that there are two ways of interpreting the world: a rational scientific way, or an irrational religious way. Spiritual Science offers a third alternative: a spiritual view of reality that transcends both conventional science and religion, and answers many of the riddles that neither can explain. The standard model of science has had little success in explaining such areas as human consciousness, the connection between the mind and the body, altruism and ‘anomalous’ phenomena such as near-death experiences, psi phenomena (such as telepathy) and spiritual experiences. But from a ‘panspiritist’ point of view – which sees spirit or consciousness as a fundamental essence of reality – it is possible to make sense of all these things. Steve Taylor puts forward the evidence for a spiritual view of reality, drawing on the insights of philosophers, physicists, mystics, as well as spiritual traditions and indigenous cultures. He systematically shows how a ‘panspiritist’ view can explain many puzzling aspects of science and the world, including evolution and the origins of life, and a wide range of other phenomena such as quantum physics, the placebo effect, precognition and neuroplasticity. Spiritual Science offers a new vision of the world that is compatible with both modern science and ancient spiritual teachings. It provides a more accurate and holistic account of reality than conventional science or religion, integrating a wide range of phenomena that are excluded from both. After showing how the materialist worldview demeans the world and human life, Spiritual Science offers a brighter alternative – a vision of the world as sacred and interconnected, and of human life as meaningful and purposeful. Spiritual Science explains how the standard materialist model of reality developed, and turned into a belief system. This belief system can only function by denying (or explaining away) a whole range of phenomena that are part of human experience. It is possible to be scientific without adopting this belief system – in fact, it is much more rational to do so.

Download or read book The Physics of Spirit written by Derryl Hermanutz and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-06-26 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition includes 2 separate but related books, The Physics of Spirit and The Physics of Creation. The Physics of Spirit explains what consciousness "is" within the established context of 20th century physics and 21st century neuroscience. The central scientific point of this book is that consciousness is a real thing that is generated by patterns of neuron firings in our brain. The central mystical point of the book is that our consciousness "is" our individual human "spirit", our spirit-being. Our conscious spirit is made of neurally-generated electromagnetism. Electromagnetism is light, and our conscious spiritual being is "made of" light: in the mystical sense of conscious spiritual light; in the neuroscience sense of neural electricity that is read by EEGs; and in the physics sense of electromagnetic wave energy. Spirit is the "conscious" part of reality, the beings who experience themselves existing and participating in reality. It is our electromagnetic consciousness that can experience an afterlife in heaven after our physical body/brain ceases the electrical functioning that had made those integrations of matter "living" bodies. Conscious spirits are made of electromagnetic wave energy, which is "light", the kind of light we see by, the kind of light that embodies/carries and causally delivers "information" in the optical and radio/wifi/bio-electrical bandwidths. Our conscious spirits, and the information that we causally interact with to produce perceptions and other kinds of conscious "experiences", are made of electromagnetic wave energy, which is a real causally interactive kind of stuff whose workings can be described in terms of physics, neurophysics, and spirituality. The mystical language of spiritual light can be translated into the logical language of the physics and neurophysics of self-aware conscious beings who are "made of light". Our conscious spirits are "real" things that work by physics, not by magic, miracles or fantasy.The Physics of Creation presents an interpretation of the evidence from cosmology to describe a reality in which life and consciousness are not dismissed as miraculous flukes and meaningless anomalies. We are "real", and our existence has to be explained, not ignored. Cosmology's knowledge of events in the very early universe is consistent with what happens when matter that had been in a densely coherent liquid state molecular compound suddenly evaporates into a diffuse gaseous state. "The Big Bang" that created our universe was not the creation of matter out of nothing, nor was it the sudden emergence of matter out of a pre-existing quantum foam. Matter can neither be created nor destroyed, so the matter that now exists has always existed. But our universe suddenly began existing about 14 billion years ago, so all the matter that is now "in" our universe must have existed somewhere else before our universe existed. Conventional physics knows that matter exists in molecular compounds, and a molecular compound exists in 1 of 3 possible phase states: solid, liquid, gaseous. By expanding the current Standard Model cosmological paradigm to include the liquid and solid phase states of matter, The Physics of Creation explains where all this stuff "came from" within a 3 phase states cosmology. Our universe is the cosmological gaseous phase state of matter. The cosmological liquid state generates an electromagnetic energy environment of whole white light that is spiritual heaven. God/Goddess are the conscious electromagnetic spirit who are made of and who live in the electromagnetic light that is generated by the cosmological solid phase state of matter. God/Goddess created the liquid and gaseous phase states of reality by adding electromagnetic motion energy ("heat") to their solid state matter that first melted some of it to a liquid state, then evaporated some of the liquid matter at the Big Liquid Mass Ejection and Big Evaporation event 14 billion years ago.

Download or read book Modern Physics and Ancient Faith written by Stephen M. Barr and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2003-02-28 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A considerable amount of public debate and media print has been devoted to the “war between science and religion.” In his accessible and eminently readable new book, Stephen M. Barr demonstrates that what is really at war with religion is not science itself, but a philosophy called scientific materialism. Modern Physics and Ancient Faith argues that the great discoveries of modern physics are more compatible with the central teachings of Christianity and Judaism about God, the cosmos, and the human soul than with the atheistic viewpoint of scientific materialism. Scientific materialism grew out of scientific discoveries made from the time of Copernicus up to the beginning of the twentieth century. These discoveries led many thoughtful people to the conclusion that the universe has no cause or purpose, that the human race is an accidental by-product of blind material forces, and that the ultimate reality is matter itself. Barr contends that the revolutionary discoveries of the twentieth century run counter to this line of thought. He uses five of these discoveries—the Big Bang theory, unified field theories, anthropic coincidences, Gödel’s Theorem in mathematics, and quantum theory—to cast serious doubt on the materialist’s view of the world and to give greater credence to Judeo-Christian claims about God and the universe. Written in clear language, Barr’s rigorous and fair text explains modern physics to general readers without oversimplification. Using the insights of modern physics, he reveals that modern scientific discoveries and religious faith are deeply consonant. Anyone with an interest in science and religion will find Modern Physics and Ancient Faith invaluable.

Download or read book Quantum written by Manjit Kumar and published by Icon Books Ltd. This book was released on 2008-10-02 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'This is about gob-smacking science at the far end of reason ... Take it nice and easy and savour the experience of your mind being blown without recourse to hallucinogens' Nicholas Lezard, Guardian For most people, quantum theory is a byword for mysterious, impenetrable science. And yet for many years it was equally baffling for scientists themselves. In this magisterial book, Manjit Kumar gives a dramatic and superbly-written history of this fundamental scientific revolution, and the divisive debate at its core. Quantum theory looks at the very building blocks of our world, the particles and processes without which it could not exist. Yet for 60 years most physicists believed that quantum theory denied the very existence of reality itself. In this tour de force of science history, Manjit Kumar shows how the golden age of physics ignited the greatest intellectual debate of the twentieth century. Quantum theory is weird. In 1905, Albert Einstein suggested that light was a particle, not a wave, defying a century of experiments. Werner Heisenberg's uncertainty principle and Erwin Schrodinger's famous dead-and-alive cat are similarly strange. As Niels Bohr said, if you weren't shocked by quantum theory, you didn't really understand it. While "Quantum" sets the science in the context of the great upheavals of the modern age, Kumar's centrepiece is the conflict between Einstein and Bohr over the nature of reality and the soul of science. 'Bohr brainwashed a whole generation of physicists into believing that the problem had been solved', lamented the Nobel Prize-winning physicist Murray Gell-Mann. But in "Quantum", Kumar brings Einstein back to the centre of the quantum debate. "Quantum" is the essential read for anyone fascinated by this complex and thrilling story and by the band of brilliant men at its heart.
