Synopsis

"The Quantum Revelation is mind-blowing." ―Sting To say that quantum physics is the greatest scientific discovery of all time is not an exaggeration. In their discovery of the quantum realm, the physics community stumbled upon a genuine multifaceted revelation which can be likened to a profound spiritual treasure―a heretofore undreamed of creative power―hidden within our own mind. Quantum physics unequivocally points out that the study of the universe and the study of consciousness are inseparably linked, which is to say that ultimate progress in the one will be impossible without progress in the other. Einstein declared that what it reveals is so immensely important that “it should be everyone’s concern.” Yet few of us in the general public truly understand how the game-changing discoveries of the past century not only relate to our day-to-day lives, but also give us insights into the nature of reality and our place within it. Written for readers with no physics background, Paul Levy’s latest book, The Quantum Revelation: A Radical Synthesis of Science and Spirituality is for those who have heard that quantum physics is a fascinating subject but don’t quite understand how or why. Levy contemplates the deeper philosophical underpinnings of quantum physics, exploring the fundamental questions it provokes: What does it mean that quantum theory has discovered that there is no such thing as “objective reality?” How are we participating―via our consciousness―in creating our experience of a reality that quantum theory itself describes as “dreamlike?” What are the implications for us in our day-to-day lives that―as quantum theory reveals―what we call reality is more like a dream that we had previously imagined? The Quantum Revelation is unique in how it synthesizes science and spirituality so as to reveal and explore the dreamlike nature of reality. It is a book not just for people interested in quantum theory, but for anyone who is interested in waking up and dreaming lucidly, be it in our night dreams or our waking life.

About this title

Review

“For years we’ve seen a flood of books telling us everything we need to know about quantum physics, linking it to religion, consciousness, evolution, even sex. You might think that by now it would all seem elementary―but you’d be wrong. Paul Levy’s The Quantum Revelation shows that there are still mysteries to discover in the strange world of subatomic particles and their even stranger relation to consciousness and the reality we share. This seems to be, as Levy tells us, a ‘participatory’ one, in which we are active players engaged in bringing the world into being, a truth here indeed brought home with the force of revelation. Heisenberg may have been uncertain about some things, but I bet observed and observer alike will appreciate this book.” ―GARY LACHMAN, Author of Beyond the Robot: The Life and Work of Colin Wilson (GARY LACHMAN)

“Paul Levy’s The Quantum Revelation brilliantly reveals how science is capable of enhancing our understanding of spirituality. In creatively pointing out the correlation between psyche and matter, Paul is helping to illumine the dreamlike nature of the universe in a way that can help all of us to further awaken. Bravo!” ―DR. ARNY MINDELL, Author of Quantum Mind: The Edge between Physics and Psychology, and founder of process-oriented psychology (ARNY MINDELL)

"The Quantum Revelation is a deep and engrossing contemplation of the quantum world that creates a spiritual awakening within the reader, a must-read for deep contemplation of a spiritual path." ―Barbara Hand Clow, author of Alchemy of Nine Dimensions and Revelations of the Ruby Crystal (Barbara Hand Clow)

“On the surface, The Quantum Revelation is a clearly written discussion of the mind-blowing implications of quantum mechanics. But below the surface, it is a magical spell . . . So proceed with caution, because if you let it, this book can change your life.” ―DEAN RADIN, PhD. Chief Scientist, Institute of Noetic Sciences and author, Real Magic and other books (Dean Radin, PhD)

"The Quantum Revelation is a masterpiece. Paul Levy has managed to articulate how the reality of our consciousness is shifting and why―and more importantly, how these micro-invisible shifts in the energy fields of all expressions of life are redefining our relationship with perception, and even time.” ―Caroline Myss, Author of Anatomy of the Spirit (Caroline Myss)

“The Quantum Revelation is that unique book that plumbs the depth of the current scientific revolution and at the same time speaks from the heart to the heart of everyone. It is what I call the new paradigm―embodied in a readable, enjoyable, and above all supremely informative volume!” ―ERVIN LASZLO Founder and President of the Club of Budapest, Founder and Director of the Laszlo Institute of New Paradigm Research, and author of What Is Reality? and many other books (Ervin Laszlo)

"The Quantum Revelation is mind-blowing." ―Sting (Sting)

"In The Quantum Revelation, Paul Levy reveals a picture of our world that is shockingly different than the one we were taught. It is a view in which mind matters, and in which consciousness is fundamental. The implications of these insights for how we live our life and for our very survival as a species are being sensed by an increasing number of individuals. No intelligent, thinking person in today's world can afford to be uninformed about these developments. For your sake -- and that of future generations -- put The Quantum Revelation on the top of your stack." ―Larry Dossey, MD, author of ONE MIND: How Our Individual Mind Is Part of a Greater Consciousness and Why It Matters (Larry Dossey, MD)

"This is a deeply alchemical work of breathtaking scope. Paul blends and shapes the scientific and the mystical into a scintillating synthesis that I believe forms the perfect springboard for a whole new means of understanding our universe. It's also a wonderful journey through the paradoxes of quantum theory, but written so clearly that anyone can understand it." ―Richard Rudd, author of The Gene Keys (Richard Rudd)

“This is one of the most important books that I have ever read.” ―From the foreword by JEAN HOUSTON (Jean Houston)

"Perhaps the greatest "spiritual teacher" of the twentieth century was Albert Einstein because he grasped a fundamental truth of existence: that science and spirituality are not separate. In The Quantum Revelation, Paul Levy brilliantly elucidates the reality that separation does not exist on any level and that humanity's principal task in the throes of the global crisis is to deeply reconnect with oneself, with each other, and with Earth. The question, "Is there a higher power?" is now embarrassingly obsolete. Levy masterfully demonstrates that in fact, there is no one and nothing else." ―Carolyn Baker, Ph.D., author of Dark Gold: The Human Shadow and The Global Crisis and Love In The Age Of Ecological Apocalypse: Cultivating The Relationships We Need To Thrive (Carolyn Baker, PhD)

“A radical synthesis of science and spirituality that is written in plain, but profound language that the general reader will appreciate and understand. From the point of view of a quantum physicist who understands the primacy of consciousness, I appreciate the bold steps that Paul takes in this great work.” ―MENAS C. KAFATOS, Fletcher Jones Endowed Professor of Computational Physics, Chapman University, Author with Deepak Chopra of the New York Times best seller You Are the Universe (Menas Kafatos)

About the Author

In 1981, due to an intense personal trauma, Paul Levy had a life-changing spiritual awakening in which he began to recognize the dreamlike nature of reality. During the first year of his spiritual emergence, Paul was hospitalized a number of times and was told he was having a severe psychotic break from reality. Fortunately, he was able to extricate himself from the medical and psychiatric establishment so that he could continue his process of self-discovery. In the late 1980s he became the manager of the C. G. Jung Foundation Book Service in New York, as well as the advertising manager for the Jungian journal Quadrant. He later moved to Portland, Oregon, where he began sharing his ideas about the dreamlike nature of reality by giving talks and facilitating interest groups. Paul is the author of Dispelling Wetiko: Breaking the Curse of Evil, Awakened by Darkness: When Evil Becomes Your Father, and The Madness of George W. Bush: A Reflection of Our Collective Psychosis. A Tibetan Buddhist practitioner for more than thirty years, Paul has intimately studied with some of the greatest spiritual masters of Tibet and Burma. Paul is the founder of the Awakening in the Dream community in Portland, Oregon. He was also the coordinator of the Portland chapter of the Padmasambhava Buddhist Center for over twenty years.
