REALITY BEYOND MATERIALITY

A CLIMACTIC TIME IN HUMAN HISTORY

It is understandable that due to our experience in this 3D dream of life on this planet we would be captured by perceptions of materiality as ultimate reality. It is not. Indeed, mater is a temporary form that serves the good purposes intended in this dream.

Dreams are real. They just are not as real as they seem. Due to the magnificent beauty and complexity we find in our experiences with matter, it is quite difficult to think of matter as less than as real as it seems. It is difficult to imagine a reality greater than the tangible matter we access with our five senses.

Matter, like the dream in which we encounter it, is real. It is just not as real as it seems.

Science is discovering and revealing what mystics have perceived for thousands of years. Especially our studies of Quantum Physics clearly reveal that our perceptions of matter at its most fundamental level is influenced by our consciousness. Also, what we experience to be “solid matter” is really, at its base, just open space, without solid “particles”. The apparent solidity of matter is an illusion.

The discovery of conscious power to shape matter is profound. It has been proven a multitude of times in laboratory experiments revealing that consciousness plays a fundamental role in producing the material world in which we live, therefore consciousness is a more basic reality than matter.
