📝 Description: A Brief Tour of Higher Consciousness: A Cosmic Book on the Mechanics of Creation

A lighthearted yet profound guide to the realms of higher consciousness and the ultimate nature of reality. - Explains some of the most difficult concepts of physics and heightened consciousness in ways that are easily understood. - Presents a model for the interaction of the universe and human thought that has profound implications for our future.

Using comical sketches, simple metaphors, and his famous wit and humor, Bentov explains the nature of reality, points out the sights in Nirvana and the Void, and eventually takes you to a meeting with your higher self. Along the way, Bentov illuminates the Kabbalistic principles of number and sound, the meaning of cosmic shapes and symbols, the consciousness of devas, and the nature of the absolute. Ultimately, he shows that the universe and thought are inseparable, and that the thoughts of all human beings affect each other and in turn the whole universe--an idea with obvious and far-reaching implications. Anyone interested in the inner reaches of the mind, the greater structure of the cosmos, and the spiritual evolution of humanity will find A Brief Tour of Higher Consciousness an informed and delightful traveling companion.

Occult literature desk
Bentov successfully translates intricate tapestry of consciousness into an engaging expedition for the layperson. His witty tone makes heavy metaphysical topics feel like a friendly conversation rather than a lecture. However, this book does not suit readers seeking rigorous academic physics or traditional religious doctrine. Those expecting dry technical manuals or purely dogmatic spiritual advice may find its blend of engineer’s insight and mystic wonder too informal. It is best for those open to unconventional wisdom presented with lightness and clarity, rather than seriousness.
