About this title

Synopsis:

This is a work about or very existence, about reality, about relationship between the individual personality and the cosmos in which that personality exists, showing how the person is a microcosm, a little part of the cosmos, subtly reflecting his 'world' however autonomous or independent he may believe he is.

From the Author:

Identifying the physical correlate of Pure Consciousness
I identify the physical correlate of the Divine Light (Near-Death Light, Pure Consciousness, Buddha Mind, Godhead) with the Reticular Activating System brainwaves and show how the materialist scientific picture is integrated into the transcendentalist core picture of yogic mysticism which also accommodates consciousness, paranormal (inc. mind/body and past-life memory) phenomena, creativity, insight, quantum paradoxes. For a review by open-minded scientists' network see www.SciMedNet.org (Recent Reviews). "This is a remarkable book..." began the review by the Alister Hardy Centre for the Study of Religious Experience. Overall the book represents Indian civilisation's challenge to the dominant Western views of the world both in regard to history/geopolitics and to metaphysics. For further information email me.
