The Holographic Universe

Only human beings have come to the point where they no longer know why they exist…

Before reading the Holographic Universe, the author promised to change the way I look at things. I have to say, I am a believer. This book presents theories that not only answers the paranormal but also gives us the insight on the actual creation of the universe opposed from the big bang theory.

Here some of the many points that have caught my attention.
1) The memory is not stored in a given location but is stored everywhere. A whole in every part.

2) The Mind fills in the physical holes in the eye's retina: completing eyesight with what the Mind perceives (not the eye sees) it to be; as opposed to naked reality.

3) Energy patterns leave traceable fingerprints in the holographic universe; traumatic events leave stronger residual patterns. An individual's energy pattern, angle and strength, may align itself with the remaining pattern of a previous event, thus illuminating and/or creating the observation of a ghost, UFO, an apparition of past events, places and peoples.

4) Repressed energy can result in the manifestation of poltergeist activity, appearing to be from external sources.

5) Non locality: the aspect of all reality, projected into the illusion of time and space, of separations.

6) Schizophrenia; the possibility of different souls, different persons, living in one body, as each personality contains entirely different electrical brain impulses, opposing patterns, and physiological variations, conflicting allergies, negative and positive physical traits that cannot be found in one individual.

7) Advanced meditation results in equality and replacement to entheogenic drug use in mystical experiential consciousness. The example of Ram Dass (Richard Albert) encounter with an Indian Mystic more capable of mystical experience than the strongest dosage of hallucinogenic.

8) Thought Bursts; this is an amazing idea. While all information is conveyed point-to-point, in thought bursts one obtains groups of thoughts at once time, that is increased levels of awareness. It is suggested that death experiences of entire lifetimes passing in a matter of a split second are of this nature.

This book must be experienced for its effect to be fully understood. Micheal Talbot, with this book, does exactly what he set out to do: change the way one sees oneself, and the world, forever. It is profoundly lucid, masterfully written, unapologetically challenging and revolutionary, always erudite... and just plain beautiful. You own it to yourself to pick out this masterpiece.
