Publisher's Synopsis
There is a secret life in the Universe. The physical world is an illusion arising from our human perception, and the fundamental reality is consciousness; it is experiential. This is the conclusion of quantum physics and our latest consciousness research. There is a secret life of stones.
Knowing this changes everything. It is the tipping point revealing a new world - one in which you are immersed, like a fish in water, in aliveness, consciousness, experiential units ... and all of it friendly, compassionate, reaching out to you and helping you ... even in spite of you. The Universe is at base Consciousness, Absolute Subjectivity, Experience, or mind-stuff. This is the finding of quantum physics and Consciousness research. Does that not imply that matter and stones are, somehow, aspects of that Consciousness, mind-stuff, Experience? This book explains how that is so and reveals the profound implications that has for us and how we live our lives. In so doing, we receive the gift of a heritage we long ago and mistakenly repudiated - a worldview in which we are seen as belonging, at home, and once again noble within the world we inhabit. Using rediscovered psychotechnologies, people are able to identify with and experience the consciousnesses not only of other planetmates - that is, other species on Earth - but also are able to merge with and experience the consciousness of higher orders of beings: the Earth, individual planets, the galaxy, individual collections of people - such as the women of all time; and even collectives of supranormal beings and realities - archetypal consciousness and its reality. It is possible to experience consciousness of supposedly inanimate, non-living forms and even identify with consciousnesses on the atomic and subatomic levels. This book presents a logical philosophical journey that wanders and explores the terrain leading up to and supporting such overstandings. Then, it hovers above those astonishing revelations and glories in the implications of them for understanding our Reality, our non-separation from each other, our Identity as Self and Divinity, and for guidance for our lives. In so doing, we peer through a portal wherein we are again one with the Universe. We find ourselves on the edge of a coming together as grand as that which we experienced at conception. So trees bloom for the joy of it. Bees delight in their tasks. The ocean is deep, wise, and comforting. And the Universe is pervaded by love, which we erroneously label gravity. This is what we know because we are part of Reality, part of Nature, part of Divinity and not superior to it as the dominant religions presume.... Or fallen from it like we are some kind of alien fruit that was somehow projected out of a tree, a Nature, that we have no part of, as scientists assume. Katheleen Mitro writes, of *The Secret Life of Stones*, "I am really loving it...! I have never read such complex knowledge encapsulated so perfectly into such simple understanding. [Michael Adzema's] grasp of it seems otherworldly. "I was looking for information on how to break through the barrier of perceived reality and was presented with this book. Very simplistic as only an author who really knows his information well can do. And really quite mind blowing as intended. "If you are on the quest for enlightenment I cannot think of a more powerful tool than this book!! [The book's] power being the author's ability to vividly paint a mind picture of exactly what is going on in reality (as opposed to perceived reality)...and how to flow with it to understand - well a lot of it. "As an artist I approve of this: ) Knowing there is nothing more powerful than visually seeing a painting and feeling it at the exact same time. This is also what this book is able to achieve."
