A SYMBOL comes to the author one morning as a gift from Higher Mind. It brings forth many questions about the nature of "reality', including the many visions, intuitions, and so-called paranormal events he has experienced throughout his life. To satisfy his queries he is "instructed" to contemplate the SYMBOL in order to receive answers. He does this nightly just before falling asleep, and by morning the answers would miraculously come forth in visual as well as spoken and lexical contexts. The answers relate to the many notes he has taken of the experiences themselves and their possible relationships to discoveries in modern science, especially in neuroscience. He realizes that the SYMBOL offers an interactive FEEDBACK LOOP to help in the revelation of a revolutionary "rational mysticism." Over the years it delivers a unique counterintuitive model of universal and personal cognition. The revelation brings together, as only symbols can, the OBJECTIVE & SUBJECTIVE dimensions of our dynamic and self-referential reality. It is perpetually creating itself from its inherent nature. Phenomenal consciousness is created where the objective and subjective flows of information interface. This juncture is where opposites meet to create the reality we experience as a living standing wave.
