ABOUT THE
BOOK
For Professor Roger Hart, life truly began after he almost lost his -- in a
horrific fall off the slopes of Mount Everest that he miraculously survived.
This near-death experience sparked a desire in him to devote his studies to the
very nature of human consciousness, in order to unlock the code of reality that
binds our world.
On an adventure of discovery that would take him around the world, Hart would
experience life-altering transcendental events in Tibet, Morocco, and Tierra del
Fuego -- opening the door to a true understanding of the nature of man. In this
groundbreaking volume, he explores the participation of consciousness in the
creation of reality, challenging the traditional scientific view of time, space,
and objectivity -- and describing in detail his own metaphysical journey, which
has involved synchronicity, precognition, and telekinesis. It is an exploration
of the very things that make us human -- and a quest that touches upon the
meaning of life itself.
REVIEWS
“Those with a thing for physics and an openness to Eastern philosophy will
appreciate the vigor and the clarity of Hart’s ideas about how we simulate
reality, create time, and shape the world with our thoughts.” -- Kirkus
“In this metaphysical autobiography, Hart projects his life story --
expeditions, living in exotic lands, escaping his strict parents, and making
love -- against the backdrop of relativity, quantum physics, foreknowledge, and
mysticism. . . . Hart concludes that it is possible to be outside normal
space-time, within the quantum ground where all times are the present and events
are synchronized across vast distances. A thought-provoking read...” --
Library Journal
“…it’s a stimulating and entertaining read, as much a tale of boy’s own
adventure as metaphysical speculation -- ripping holiday reading for the fortean
traveler.”--Fortean Times
