Physics Religion

Many people are fed up with the way traditional religion alienates them. Too easily it perpetuates conflict, vilifies science, and undermines reason. Nancy Abrams - a philosopher of science, lawyer, and lifelong atheist - is among these people, but she has also found freedom in imagining a higher power. Here, Abrams explores a radically new way of thinking about God. She shows why an omniscient, omnipotent God that created the universe and plans what happens is incompatible with science - but that this doesn’t preclude a God that can comfort and empower us.

Bridging the gap between the world of science and the realm of the spiritual, Wallace, a pioneer of modern consciousness research, offers a practical and revolutionary method for exploring the mind that combines the keenest insights of contemporary physics and philosophers with the time-honored meditative traditions of Buddhism.

Science starts to get interesting when things don'’t make sense. Even today, there are experimental results that the most brilliant scientists can neither explain nor dismiss. In the past, similar anomalies have revolutionised our world: in the 16th century, a set of celestial irregularities led Copernicus to realise that the Earth goes around the sun and not the reverse. In 13 Things That Don'’t Make Sense, Michael Brooks meets thirteen modern-day anomalies that may become tomorrow'’s breakthroughs.

Science starts to get interesting when things don't make sense. Science's best-kept secret is that there are experimental results and reliable data that the most brilliant scientists can neither explain nor dismiss. If history is any precedent, we should look to today's inexplicable results to forecast the future of science. Michael Brooks heads to the scientific frontier to meet 13 modern-day anomalies and discover tomorrow's breakthroughs.

This is an intensive review of what the Apostle Paul calls the most important chapter in the Bible: 1 Corinthians 15. Without it, “we are of all men most miserable”. Did Jesus really rise from the dead? How do we know? Do we really believe it? What kind of body did He have? Why did they have trouble recognizing him? How do we now know that we live within a digital virtual environment which is but “a shadow of a larger reality”?

Living the life of your dreams isn't just about dreaming. It's also about living: following your impulses, turning over every stone, and stepping out into the world so that the wind can catch your sails. To those in the know, it's as if your dreams paint the picture and the Universe stands ready to bring it to life. Choose Them Wisely is filled with the same inspirational messages from "the Universe" that made the Notes from the Universe trilogy so popular, but the thoughts have been expanded.

In a clear and engaging way, this book shows how the principle of emptiness, the philosophic heart of Tibetan Buddhism, connects intimately to quantum nonlocality and other foundational features of quantum mechanics. Detailed connections between emptiness, modern relativity, and the nature of time are also explored. For Tibetan Buddhists, the profound interconnectedness implied by emptiness demands the practice of universal compassion.

What is the connection between physics and consciousness? In this groundbreaking new audiobook, Samuel Avery presents the quantum screen, a paradigm-shifting model of perceptual consciousness and of the world. This model looks to the enigmas of modern physics to demonstrate the primacy of consciousness - the essential oneness of spirit and matter.

Is there a God? If so, does God care about us? Or is human life a mere accident of physics? For centuries these fundamental questions have been integral to every culture and religion the world has known - and have not been answered, save by faith. When it comes to finding answers about how the universe came into existence, "God" is simply another theory. A theory that, many say, is no longer needed.

Ervin Laszlo and his collaborators from the forefront of science, cosmology, and spirituality show how the rediscovery of who we are and why we are here integrates seamlessly with the wisdom traditions as well as with the new emerging worldview in the sciences, revealing a way forward for humanity on this planet. They explain how we have reached a point of critical incoherence and tell us that to save ourselves, our environment, and society, we need a critical mass of people to consciously evolve a new thinking.

Science has finally uncovered the miracle and magic of our observable universe. For the first time, this book captures the interwoven journey of science and religion to elucidate and reconcile the definition, purpose, structure, and function of life, death, God, and the human soul in this simplistic narrative helping the listener navigate life lit up by observable and inclusive awareness unlike ever before.

Are you seeking a deeper understanding of consciousness? Are you interested in meditation or currently practicing meditation? The Buddha and the Quantum is about the connection between meditation and physics. Many books show parallels between consciousness and physics; a few of these attempt to explain consciousness in terms of the physics of everyday experience. This is the only book that explains physics and the everyday world in terms of consciousness alone.

The perennial enigma the human mind has been encountering is the meaning of life and its place in the universe. On this subject, science and spirituality remained in discord with each other particularly for the last couple of centuries. The Theory of Relativity followed by quantum mechanics changed the worldview of traditional mindset altogether.

Imagine what it would be like to one day wake up and find that you were suddenly completely blind. This is what happened to Vanessa Potter. Her condition is unique. It has no name. Over the course of the next six months, Vanessa slowly recovered her vision. This mesmerising account tells the story of Patient H69 in her own words, based on these detailed diaries she kept during her time of blindness and through the scientific research that was to follow.

Neue Quanten-Erkenntnisse für ein langes und gesundes Leben. Gemeinsam mit dem Quantenphysiker Dr. Jack Tuszynski und dem Endokrinologen Dr. Brian Fertig zeigt der Bestsellerautor und ganzheitliche Mediziner Deepak Chopra, wie sich die Erkenntnisse der Quantenwissenschaft darauf auswirken, wie wir leben und altern. Der Schlüssel dabei ist der Quantenkörper. Dieser beeinflusst von seiner subatomaren Ebene aus unsere Gedanken, Gefühle, aber auch unseren Stoffwechsel und damit die Energieproduktion unserer Zellen.

A menudo conocemos las teorías que los grandes físicos de la historia han desarrollado, pero ignoramos aspectos biográficos que les han influido, como sus pensamientos teístas o ateos. A veces sus creencias han tenido un efecto en su ciencia y en otras ha sido la ciencia la cual ha influido en sus creencias. ¿Qué ideas religiosas tenían Aristóteles, Copérnico, Galileo, Einstein o Dirac? ¿Cómo influyó el contexto? Eduardo Battaner nos lo cuenta en este audiolibro desde una perspectiva objetiva e histórica.

Over nine million Americans have reported a near death experience (NDE). They’re virtually unanimous in their conclusion that the afterlife is real. Quantum physics suggests they may be right. In this short, mind-expanding book, veteran investigative journalist Michael Schmicker takes you on his personal journey in search of a hard-science backed argument for an afterlife.

Join author Sihir Rajan for a fascinating and thought provoking look at what modern science and investigation now tell us about ourselves and how current research is shedding new light on the reality of what religions around the world have professed for centuries.... "Death is only the beginning!"

How did we get here? All cultures have a creation story, but a little over 150 years ago, Charles Darwin introduced a revolutionary new one. We, and all living things, exist because of the action of evolution on the first simple life form and its descendants. In How Evolution Explains Everything About Life, leading biologists and New Scientist take you on a journey of a lifetime, exploring the questions of whether life is inevitable or a one-off fluke and how it got kick-started.

The message of modern physics is that physical reality has, at its frontiers, all the aspects of a transcendent order. At the foundation of things, elementary particles can exert instantaneous long-distance influences on each other, can be meaningfully said to have mind-like properties, and can exist in states which are, as Heisenberg wrote, "not quite real, but between the idea of a thing and a real thing."
