The wise give us clues. The frightened sell us religion. Fortunately, mystics in all spiritual traditions have given us many wonderful clues over the centuries. And now we have had one hundred years of quantum physics to measure the accuracy of those clues. Our body tells us we are mortal and shall die in the mud with our fellow pigs. Yet our intuition tells us that we are immortal and will somehow survive death. Well, which is it? Today thoughtful answers to important questions like these are not coming from the pulpit, but from new research in quantum physics. Our objective reality in space-time is a fiction; it does not really exist. Our local perception of separateness is, in the deepest sense, an illusion, and all individual entities like you and me are mere extensions of the quantum potential. Yes, the world is not what it appears to be. One true goal of a spiritual quest is to shake off the ignorance of the deep feelings of separateness and awaken to the reality of the unity of all things. There is nothing in our experience to indicate that water is two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen. There is nothing in our experience to indicate that the earth is rotating and the sun is does not really move across the sky. Similarly, there is nothing in our experience to indicate that we are all essentially One Consciousness beyond time and space and our impressions of being individual and separate are without foundation. There has been no effort to make this a popular book, only a true one. And if the sincere truth seeker can take one or two useful clues from this writing, then I will feel satisfied. Dr. Hollowell and his former co-author LaVedi Lafferty wrote a 500 page book on reincarnation in 1985 called The Eternal Dance which placed them in "People of Ideas in the Second Half of the Twentieth Century: The Philosophers." Other awards by the author: The Peace & Freedom Citation from the Alaska State Ecumenical Council for leadership with Chinese students after the 1989 Beijing Massacre, and a 2005 Faculty of the Year recognition by the University of Phoenix campus in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
