The classical mechanistic idea of nature that prevailed during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was essentially mindless: the physically described aspects of nature were asserted to be completely determined by prior physically described aspects alone, with conscious experiences entering only passively. In the last century these classical concepts were found inadequate. In the new quantum mechanics theory, conscious experiences enter into the dynamics in specified ways not fixed by physically described aspects alone.

The ​Mindful Universe explores the scientific workings of the Universe, its awe-inspiring nature and how it can be partnered with mindfulness to bring meaning to our lives. The universe is an infintely complex concept. Containing countless galaxies, solar systems and unknown planets. It encompasses everything we know, and everything we don't. This book explores how through exploring some of the deepest questions about the universe, we can also uncover insights about ourselves. Mark Westmoquette takes you on a fascinating journey through space, time, our mind and the mysteries of the cosmos in this lovingly-written book. Through practical meditations, facts and anecdote, he points the reader to a life-affirming realisation: that when we start to observe things mindfully, just as they really are, we start to find the secrets of the Universe revealing themselves before our very eyes. Part of the Mindfulness series, this book ​looks at science through the lens of mindfulness and spirituality, bringing together two seemingly opposed beliefs through topics such as: The journey of a photon Our chemical origins from the birth of stars The nature of time The limits to our senses The beauty of nebulae Non-duality and quantum theory ... and much more If you like this, you might also be interested in Einstein and the Art of Mindful Cycling . . .

The Mindful Universe takes you on a journey through the outer cosmos, exploring its inherently spiritual nature and mindful connection to our inner cosmos.

The universe is mindful. Every creation exists for a cause. Unless and until the cause matches its frequency with the creator, it will suffer. As and when it tunes to the desired frequency, regardless of time and space, it manifests. Kailashi Shanta D. Have you ever wondered how the universe works, and how you can use its secrets to create your dream life? Have you ever felt that there is more than reality what you see, hear, or touch and that you have a deeper connection with the source of all creation and intelligence? Have you ever wanted to tap the infinite wisdom and creativity of the universe mind, and enjoy the life you want? If you answered yes, to any of these questions, then you are here for a treat. Mindful Universe is a book that will open somewhat your eyes, mind, and heart to the wonders and mysteries of the universe, and show you how to use its language to manifest your desires. Mindful Universe is a book that will teach you how to use the principles and techniques of quantum physics, neuroscience, and spirituality to understand the nature of reality and your role in it. Mindful Universe is a book that will help you align your thoughts, emotions, and actions with the frequency of your desired outcomes, and attract them from the quantum field and the universe mind. Mindful Universe is not just a book. It is a journey of discovery, transformation, and empowerment. It is a journey that will take you from the realm of the physical and material life to the realm of the metaphysical and spiritual life. It is a journey that will take you from the realm of the finite and limited to the realm of the infinite and unlimited. It is a journey that will take you from the realm of the ego and separation to the realm of the soul and unity. Kailashi Shanta Sharma Director KGPB

Dr. Eben Alexander, author of international phenomenon Proof of Heaven, shares the next phase of his journey to understand the true nature of consciousness and how to cultivate a state of harmony with the universe and our higher purpose. In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexander’s brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a weeklong coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but he miraculously survived and brought back with him an astounding story. During those 7 days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned changed everything he knew about the brain, mind, and consciousness and drove him to ask a question confounding the entire scientific community: How do you explain the origins of consciousness if it is not a byproduct of the brain? His challenge relates to a revolutionary shift now underway within our modern scientific understanding. Ultimately, direct experience is key to fully understanding how we are all connected through the binding force of unconditional love and its unlimited power to heal. In Living in a Mindful Universe, the New York Times bestselling author of Proof of Heaven and The Map of Heaven shares his insights into the true nature of consciousness. Embracing his radically new worldview, he began a committed program of personal exploration into nonlocal consciousness. Along the way, he met Karen Newell, who had spent most of her lifetime living the worldview he had only just discovered was possible. Her personal knowledge came from testing various techniques and theories as part of her daily routine. With Living in a Mindful Universe, they teach you how to tap into your greater mind and the power of the heart to facilitate enhancement of healing, relationships, creativity, guidance, and more. Using various modalities related to meditation and mindfulness, you will gain the power to access that infinite source of knowing so vital to us all, ultimately enriching every facet of your life.

The classical mechanistic idea of nature that prevailed in science during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries was an essentially mindless conception: the physically described aspects of nature were asserted to be completely determined by prior physically described aspects alone, with our conscious experiences entering only passively. During the twentieth century the classical concepts were found to be inadequate. In the new theory, quantum mechanics, our conscious experiences enter into the dynamics in specified ways not fixed by the physically described aspects alone. Consequences of this radical change in our understanding of the connection between mind and brain are described. This second edition contains two new chapters investigating the role of quantum phenomena in the problem of free will and in the placebo effect.
