When she experimented with meditation for the first time, however, her entire world changed. Woollacott’s journey through years of meditation has made her question the reality she built her career upon and has forced her to ask what human consciousness really is. Infinite Awareness pairs Woollacott’s research as a neuroscientist with her self-revelations about the mind’s spiritual power. Between the scientific and spiritual worlds, she breaks open the definition of human consciousness to investigate the existence of a non-physical and infinitely powerful mind.

The need to create an intimate connection with your body is more essential than ever. With the rising costs of health care and the exponential growth of heart disease, strokes, diabetes, and cancer, people are looking for a new way to relate to their bodies in order to optimize health and wellness. Currently many are willing to be more pro-active when it comes to their health, and want to be more responsible for their physical, mental, and emotional well-being. Fear arises when an unexplainable health ailment shows up, and they feel powerless as to how to address or resolve it. Have you ever considered the possibility that your neck pain could be caused by worrying about a loved one, difficulties with a co-worker, or by feeling out of control in your life? For the past century, scientists have been researching the connection between the mind and body. Documented research now proves that a person's thoughts or emotions can affect the immune system, create muscle pains, and manifest as digestion issues. In these pages, you will learn about the mind-body connection as viewed in the Western medicine and Eastern disciplines. This book is a resource that details an array of health conditions with their presenting symptoms, Western treatment methods, the underlying mental-emotional component, complete with action steps you can take to assist in your healing process. If you are ready to take ownership and responsibility of your body, this is the book for you.

Book Description
"Wholeness of Being" is a handbook for conscious living. It is based on the author's personal experiences, perspectives, and extensive search for answers. Floris also shares two of his key awakening experiences that shifted him to a new paradigm of awareness, and understanding of our existence. He shares the stories of his spiritual transformational journey and the bigger picture revealed to him through present stillness meditation, life experiences and realizations. Floris reminds us that we are here to experience this life as a glorious adventure. He makes it clear that all the power in the universe exists within us, as our very own life force, as an infinite power that is always present and available. The infinite Source that we are is the very same Source that is present and expressing as everything within our awareness. "Wholeness of Being" is a handbook that reveals the interconnectedness of all life. It reminds us that every being is a focused point of Source (soul) experiencing a unique perspective of the collective mind reality through a physical vehicle. This book explores the bigger picture of our true nature of being and the discipline of practicing present stillness, which allows us to experience the wholeness of being-the awareness that everything is Source, appearing as the completeness of Itself. This book reveals that you are Source-infinite consciousness. Everything else is your story, created by your thoughts, concepts, ideas, and beliefs.

The Magic of Awareness

Author: Anam Thubten

ISBN: 083482910X
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 161

Book Description
A Tibetan Buddhist teacher offers guidance on maintaining a state of awareness—demonstrating how enlightenment can be found at any time, in our everyday lives The paradox of awareness is very profound and yet very simple. It can't be described because it has no objective qualities and no limitation. Sometimes it comes naturally to the surface when we are fully in the present moment and no longer lost in thought or mental projections. Pure consciousness is neither high nor low, neither pleasant nor unpleasant, neither good nor bad. No matter where we are, no matter what we are doing, we always have an immediate access to that inner stillness. It can be experienced in an instant in all circumstances once we know how to pay attention to it. It is utterly peaceful and it is also insightful, so it sees through all illusions. Whenever there is a moment of being deluded, we can use that moment to practice settling in the very perfect sphere of the Buddha mind without trying to change anything. When we reside in that liberated mind, we find the very thing we have been seeking all along.

The Infinite Mindfield

Author: Anthony Peake
Publisher: Watkins Media Limited
ISBN: 1780286295
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 253

Book Description
Using information from the cutting edge of modern science, Peake presents startling evidence that the inner worlds of our mystics and shamans are as real, or possibly even more real, than the reality we experience in waking life. As his starting point, Peake examines the widespread historical belief that the mid-brain’s pine-cone shaped pineal gland activates the third eye described by mystics and seers. Through careful analysis of ancient religious texts and artifacts, he gives evidence that the spiritual properties of the pineal gland have been embedded in myths and cultures across the globe. (Why else would the Buddha so often be found wearing a pine cone hat?) Peake then shows that it is through this small organ that we experience lucid dreaming, out-of-body experiences, hypnagogic imagery, near-death experiences, astral travel and the kundalini experience. The book ends with the mind-blowing conclusion that all living beings are one unitary consciousness experiencing itself subjectively.

Fragments of an Infinite Memory

Author: Maël Renouard
Publisher: New York Review of Books
ISBN: 1681372819
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 233

Book Description
A deeply informed, yet playful and ironic look at how the internet has changed human experience, memory, and our sense of self, and that belongs on the shelf with the best writings of Roland Barthes and Jean Baudrillard. “One day, as I was daydreaming on the boulevard Beaumarchais, I had the idea—it came and went in a flash, almost in spite of myself—of Googling to find out what I’d been up to and where I’d been two evenings before, at five o’clock, since I couldn’t remember on my own.” So begins Maël Renouard’s Fragments of an Infinite Memory, a provocative and elegant inquiry into life in a wireless world. Renouard is old enough to remember life before the internet but young enough to have fully accommodated his life to the internet and the gadgets that support it. Here this young philosopher, novelist, and translator tries out a series of conjectures on how human experience, especially the sense of self, is being changed by our continual engagement with a memory that is impersonal and effectively boundless. Renouard has written a book that is rigorously impressionistic, deeply informed historically and culturally, but is also playful, ironic, personal, and formally adventurous, a book that withstands comparison to the best of Roland Barthes and Jean Baudrillard.

Being Aware of Being Aware

Author: Rupert Spira
Publisher: New Harbinger Publications
ISBN: 1626259984
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 73

Book Description
Everybody is aware, all seven billion of us. We are aware of thoughts, feelings, sensations, and perceptions. All people share the experience of being aware, but relatively few people are aware that they are aware. Most people’s lives consist of a flow of thoughts, images, ideas, feelings, sensations, sights, sounds, and so on. Very few people ask, 'What is it that knows this flow of thoughts, feelings, and perceptions? With what am I aware of my experience?' The knowing of our being—or rather, awareness’s knowing of its own being in us—is our primary, fundamental and most intimate experience. It is in this experience that the peace, happiness and love for which all people long reside. The happiness we have sought so long outside of ourselves, in situations, objects and relationships, turns out to be always present and available in the simple knowing of our own being as it truly is. The knowing of our own being shines in each of us as the experience ‘I am’ or ‘I am aware’, or simply the knowledge ‘I’. This obvious, familiar and intimate experience has no objective qualities and is, therefore, overlooked or ignored by the majority of people. This overlooking of our own being is the ultimate cause of unhappiness. What is the nature of the experience of being aware or awareness itself? The exploration of this question is the subject matter of this book and the essence of the Direct Path to peace and happiness. * * * The Essence of Meditation Series presents meditations on the essential, non-dual understanding that lies at the heart of all the great religious and spiritual traditions, compiled from contemplations led by Rupert Spira at his meetings and retreats. This simple, contemplative approach, which encourages a clear seeing of one’s experience rather than any kind of effort or discipline, leads the reader to an experiential understanding of their own essential being and the peace and fulfillment that are inherent within it. Being Aware of Being Aware is the first and introductory volume in The Essence of Meditation Series.

Only then does your infinite potential become your personal reality. ‘Grasping this revolutionary idea will effectively remove the limiting belief systems and negativity that may be holding us back from achieving our maximum human potential. Highly recommended!” Dr Rudolph E. Tanzi ‘Metahuman helps us harvest peak experiences so we can see our Truth and mold the universe’s chaos into a form that brings light to the world’ Dr Mehmet Oz

An Awareness of What is Missing

Author: Jürgen Habermas
Publisher: John Wiley & Sons
ISBN: 0745694705
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 83

Book Description
In his recent writings on religion and secularization, Habermas has challenged reason to clarify its relation to religious experience and to engage religions in a constructive dialogue. Given the global challenges facing humanity, nothing is more dangerous than the refusal to communicate that we encounter today in different forms of religious and ideological fundamentalism. Habermas argues that in order to engage in this dialogue, two conditions must be met: religion must accept the authority of secular reason as the fallible results of the sciences and the universalistic egalitarianism in law and morality; and conversely, secular reason must not set itself up as the judge concerning truths of faith. This argument was developed in part as a reaction to the conception of the relation between faith and reason formulated by Pope Benedict XVI in his 2006 Regensburg address. In 2007 Habermas conducted a debate, under the title ‘An Awareness of What Is Missing', with philosophers from the Jesuit School for Philosophy in Munich. This volume includes Habermas's essay, the contributions of his interlocutors and Habermas's reply to them. It will be indispensable reading for anyone who wishes to understand one of the most urgent and intractable issues of our time.
