Reality Unveiled

universe. Even the “physical universe” that we can detect makes up only 4 percent of it, according to many astronomers.1

We perceive so little and yet think this is all there

When we realize that virtually everything we currently believe about the nature of existence comes from trusting our senses, and yet those very senses can only detect an infinitesimally small portion of reality, we become open to questioning if we actually know the nature of reality at all.

When we look through our eyes, we are not seeing reality but merely decoding information in the form of light and literally blind to everything else.

there are entire realms that coexist in the same “space” as us, but similarly we’re unable to perceive them through any of our senses.

“If quantum mechanics hasn’t profoundly shocked you, you haven’t understood it yet. Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real.”

In fact, it has been calculated that if you took the entire population of the Earth, all seven billion of us, and removed all the empty space from all of our combined atoms, the entire human race would fit into a single sugar cube.

But if there is such an infinitesimally small amount of “solid” matter in the universe, then why does everything look and feel so undeniably solid to us?

The same thing happens any time you “touch” any apparently solid object. There is nothing solid there to touch. If you are reading this book in your hand, then your hand is not actually touching it. Rather, the nonphysical tornado-like clouds of atoms are repelling one another at unimaginably tiny distances so that you have the illusion of touching something solid. That apparent solidity of touch is all coming from the sensation of the electrostatic repulsion between the atoms. Indeed, you’re not even touching the chair you’re sitting on; instead, you’re hovering one 100-millionth of a centimeter above it, feeling it so solidly under you due to the atomic repulsion between its atoms and yours.

everything looks—remember that we are dealing with an atomic world so small that you need highly sophisticated microscopes to see it. So it’s not a stretch to imagine how non-solid clouds of energy, which have magnetic forces to hold them together, can be packed so incredibly close together so as to seem like one solid object (like a human body or a rock), but in reality be nothing more than a very convincing illusion.

Nikola Tesla, gave us a clue when he said, “If you want to know the secrets of the universe, think in terms of energy, frequency and vibration.”

E=mc2. Most people have heard of this equation, but what does it really mean? Very simply, matter and energy are actually one and the same.

truth. Beyond the deception of perception, we are like waves in the ocean of humanity, all connected as One basic energy.

When we meditate or pray in concert, we can create what’s called “energetic coherence.”

Western scientists and skeptics, we must remember that anyone who threatens our view of reality is likely to be attacked and face a battle to have their work discredited, and we must remain vigilant to not quickly dismiss the results.

truth passes through three distinct stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

unquestioned blind faith can disempower us and leave us susceptible to control.

blindly accepted doctrines of those who currently rule society—and by extension our minds—but rather self-discerned personal truths that we have chosen to accept as empowered individuals.

The Secret Life of Plants: A Fascinating Account of the Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Relations between Plants and Man by Peter Tompkins and Christopher Bird. 12 As you can see just from the book’s title, it has the potential to completely transform your ideas about the other beings we share this planet with and just how aware and intimately connected to us they actually are.

But here’s something very interesting. David Wilcock reports that Dr. Backster told him that if you pray over your food, being thankful for it and feeling a sense of love, then it somehow accepts its role as providing sustenance for you, and the intense electrical reactions on the polygraph charts disappear.

Creator. We, and everything else we interact with, are not separate from the Creator but the expressions of the unified consciousness that the Creator uses to experience Itself.

Perhaps reincarnating in various cultures and religions teaches the soul tolerance.

evidence. The filter of belief—belief that is most often blindly accepted in childhood and never questioned—works its magic.

That is, all the souls exist in a world of harmony, kindness, patience, and absolute love. Even if a soul in your group or another one has harmed you in the physical life you just lived, there is no resentment or ill will present on either side. It is fundamentally understood that physical life is nothing

more than a theater of sorts in which we play out varying roles and learn from our mistakes and transgressions so that we can become more loving and advance spiritually. And this brings us directly back to Shakespeare’s famous quote, which can now be seen for the truly perceptive and fundamentally truth-revealing statement it is: “All the world’s a stage… and all the men and women merely players.” Indeed, far from being metaphor, as many have believed it to be, in light of the empirical evidence from thousands upon thousands of people, it seems to be an accurate depiction of reality.

occur. We need only to understand that we, with the help of more evolved beings, set it all up this way for a very specific purpose. And while a veil of forgetfulness is placed on our minds when we reincarnate so that we can have the best chance of learning these lessons without previous life memories interfering, keeping this ultimate reality in the back of our mind can be very helpful and prove to be a self-empowered way to live life. Even that minority of children who remember their past lives can feel a great sense of relief by understanding that everything has been chosen by them on a soul level. Everything has a purpose.

That alone should raise a flag for you because if you know anything, then you know that the propaganda machine that we call modern media can’t be trusted.

Could we finally have world peace if we were opened up to a cosmic reality beyond our imaginations that has been hiding right in front of our eyes? And

Words are symbols that can help point the way to the truth, but the truth can really only ever be experienced directly to be truly understood.

Having said that, symbols can be very helpful, offering us a much-needed structure to help make sense of things. And once we have a deeper understanding, we can readily use that as a portal for accessing t...

the Creator wants to experience itself from an infinite number of perspectives and experience its true nature (love) in an infinite number of ways.

always. And if you are religious, then I submit to you that God is in everyone and everything because God is literally everything; One Consciousness appearing as the entire physical and nonphysical universe and beyond, intertwined and interlinked as One Infinite Essence. And when we allow science to meet spirituality, as we did in Chapters 3–4, we see the proof of this all around us.

either decide to be kind, loving, positive people, or we will decide to be cruel, selfish, negative people.

Of course, no one is perfect in this choice, but the question is, which side are you predominantly leaning toward?

growth. Our growth toward what? Toward understanding our ultimate true nature as love and returning to it.

And the way we do that is by learning to form a perception that sees everyone and everything as One—that is, to learn unity consciousness. The more we see the unity in everything and realize the illusory nature of separation, the more loving we will naturally be, as we recognize that everything is a part of us and ultimately is us. However, because we have free will, we can choose to focus on our separateness instead of our oneness. This is called separation consciousness. To
