Consciousness Science

Ascending at the Speed of Surrender will test your cognitive capacity with real-life situations that illustrate the bridge of science, spirituality and ufology; non-linear and non-local activity. The author explores inner and outer realities with relative ease, yet presents conundrums relative to the human condition and the need for evolution. Most fear to share such intimate and vulnerable pieces that often provoke immediate rejection from lack of direct experience or inability to suspend belief systems.

For Epicurus, the purpose of philosophy was to attain the happy, tranquil life, characterized by peace and freedom from fear, the absence of pain, and by living a self-sufficient life surrounded by friends. He taught that pleasure and pain are the measures of what is good and evil; death is the end of both body and soul and should therefore not be feared; the gods neither reward nor punish humans; the universe is infinite and eternal; and events in the world are ultimately based on the motions and interactions of atoms.

Consciousness is more than mere awareness. It’s how we experience the world, how we turn input into experience. Once the province of philosophy, religion, or perhaps fantasy, neuroscientists have added a scientific voice to the discussion, using available medical technology to explore just what separates so-called “mind” from brain. In this audiobook, we look at what science has to say about one of humankind’s most fundamental, existential mysteries.

In this book, Aaron Simmons takes us on a trip to the mountains to reflect on the meaning of life. In a world too often defined by a quest for “success” that leaves us empty, alone, and anxious, Simmons seeks “faithfulness“ outdoors with thinkers and artists from Aristotle to Kierkegaard, Sartre to Anne Lamott, and Kendrick Lamar to Donovan Woods. Simmons invites us to rethink what it means to make choices, take risks, be alone and silent while cultivating friendships, and to find our calling by facing our vulnerability.

This is about the serious science of consciousness, and eyesight because eyesight is a main part of consciousness. You yourself have a spirit which takes information from your brain, and forms an image out of the information. This image is your eyesight. It is a very bright real image which is accurately three-dimensional and very big. The image which your spirit creates out of information in your brain, very vividly seems to actually be the real three-dimensional world in front of your eyes. Spirits are a real form of life which is totally invisible. Spirits become attached to the ...

Are you tired of being ruled by the clock? Does time feel like a relentless tyrant, or a fleeting illusion you can't quite grasp? In a world dictated by demanding alarms, endless schedules, and ever-present digital displays, we often feel captive to a conception of time forged by societal pressures, not natural law. We wake, work, eat, and even schedule our leisure by its unyielding measure. But what if this "time" that governs our days is largely a human invention we can understand and redefine? "Time Is an Illusion" takes you on an extraordinary and comprehensive journey to deconstruct ...
