From Science to God

About this book

The Mystery of Consciousness and the Meaning of Light is the story of Peter Russells lifelong exploration into the nature of consciousness. Blending physics psychology and philosophy he leads us to a new worldview in which consciousness is as fundamental to the cosmos as space time and matter. He shows how all the ingredients for this worldview are in place; nothing new needs to be discovered. We have only to put the pieces together and explore the new picture of reality that emerges. Integrating a deep knowledge of science with his own experiences of meditation Russell arrives at a universe similar to that described by many mysticsone in which science and spirit no longer conflict. The bridge between them he shows is light. From Science to God invites us to cross that bridge to a radically different and ultimately healing view of ourselves and the universeone in which God takes on new meaning and spiritual practice a deeper significance.
