After weeks adrift in the cold, unforgiving void, the sight of a planet teeming with vibrant life was nothing short of a miracle.

As we open up to life and love and each other, as we awaken from our dream of separation, we encounter not just the bliss of existence, but its pain, too; not only life's ecstasy, but also its agony. Healing doesn't always feel good or comfortable or even "spiritual", for we are inevitably forced to confront our shadows, fears, and deepest longings - those secret parts of ourselves that we have denied, repressed, or deemed "negative" and unworthy of our love.

Since the election of Scott Walker, Wisconsin has been seen as ground zero for debates about the appropriate role of government in the wake of the Great Recession. In a time of rising inequality, Walker not only survived a bitterly contested recall that brought thousands of protesters to Capitol Square, he was subsequently reelected. How could this happen? How is it that the very people who stand to benefit from strong government services not only vote against the candidates who support those services but are vehemently against the very idea of big government?

This is about the serious science of consciousness, and eyesight because eyesight is a main part of consciousness. You yourself have a spirit which takes information from your brain, and forms an image out of the information. This image is your eyesight. It is a very bright real image which is accurately three-dimensional and very big. The image which your spirit creates out of information in your brain, very vividly seems to actually be the real three-dimensional world in front of your eyes. Spirits are a real form of life which is totally invisible. Spirits become attached to the ...

The Darker the Night, the Brighter the Stars weaves a scientist’s understanding of the mind - its logic, its nuance, how we think about what makes a person - with a poet’s approach to humanity, that crucial and ever-elusive why.
