The message of modern physics is that physical reality has, at its frontiers, all the aspects of a transcendent order. At the foundation of things, elementary particles can exert instantaneous long-distance influences on each other, can be meaningfully said to have mind-like properties, and can exist in states which are, as Heisenberg wrote, "not quite real, but between the idea of a thing and a real thing."

Delving deeply into each of these major focuses, Consciousness Reality & Purpose sets the listener upon a journey into themselves, the reality around them, and towards a fulfilling sense of purpose in the lives we each have to experience.

In effect, a rule of logical reasoning addresses all of the common modes of valid argument while the faulty argument contradicts them. This book ...

In Appearance in Reality, John Heil addresses a question at the heart of metaphysics: How are the appearances related to reality, how does what we find in the sciences comport with what we encounter in everyday experience and in the laboratory?

Though it was a common practice among the ancient and medieval Indian authors to compose every work including philosophies, dramas, and even treatises on medicines in verses, in the English literary tradition, a versification of academic works is unheard of. Truth is presented in verses to eliminate the complexities inherent in the theory, as seen in the popular books on Advaita, and make it easy for the reader to understand the Ultimate Truth of Existence. ...

Something fundamental which, in turn, can make space and time and matter arise from seemingly nothing?
