Chapter One

If you have ever read Prometheus Rising by Robert Anton Wilson you might refer to that work on numerous occasions throughout the reading of this book as you sift through the layers of reality I present to you. In chapter one of that great work, which is entitled "The Thinker & The Prover," Wilson suggests from his own theoretical influences that both the 'thinker' and the 'prover' can have it their way, the only difference between the two being that the prover has to work harder in order to satisfy the dilemma of proving something, even if it is based on fallacious thinking. The thinker has the freedom to wander wherever he or she wants in the mind, the mechanism for spirit to experience a physical body. In this book, however, I make it simpler. There are two aspects of yourself: the 'thinker' and the 'knower.' In this case, the thinker uses the brain to analyze a present situation and the knower feels what the right response would be based on a sensation in consciousness. Both work, but the knower has a direct advantage over the thinker—the knower doesn't have to think. Can this really be? Does ultimate objective reality transcend thought? It all comes down to knowing what "reality" is.

What do I mean by 'reality?' Based on the writing preceding this section I suggest that reality is a panorama of infinite possibilities projecting out from a center of pure consciousness and love. Consciousness and love create realities, and they do it on different vibrational frequencies in many dimensions. If I were to ask you to imagine a beautiful red rose you could do it, but where would that rose be? You are the wizard who conjures up the rose, but if I opened up your brain all I would see is a network of tiny neurons carrying electromagnetic currents. These currents merge at nexus points, which are really gaps between neurons called synapses. In the synapse, a release of chemicals takes place. We can see a variety of chemicals, but there are two predominate ones: gamma amino butyric acid and glutamate (the former depresses and the latter stimulates). The electrical activity is due to an electrical action potential, which is basically the exchange of ions across cell membranes. In your brain, however, there is no rose. Your brain was merely a mechanism for creating the reality of the rose, which actually existed in your consciousness (soul/sprit).

The same applies for the outside world. When you look at an orange flower, an invisible electromagnetic beam (photons) hits your eyes causing your retinas to produce chemical reactions which in turn send electrical currents to your brain. Your brain interprets those signals as a picture of an orange flower, but those signals are not orange in color and they do not represent a flower. The experience of the flower as a whole occurs in your consciousness. When you hear a sound, your eardrums vibrate and this causes the cilia in your ear canal to send electrical impulses to your brain. Your brain interprets those signals as sound, but those signals do not make a sound. The experience of sound occurs in your consciousness. In the outside world, the only reality is energy vibrating at different frequencies and changing form. The experience of a three-dimensional holographic reality complete with sounds, colors, pictures, smells, and textures takes place in only one place, and that is your spirit, that which I refer to as consciousness. Although you experience a continuous stream of information, reality is actually flickering on and off. This is happening at such a tremendous rate, however, that you cannot experience that resonance. You don't experience the world as vibrations, you experience it as a solid, physical reality.

Let me explain further by calling to attention an experiment done in the early part of the 20th century where scientists shot beams of particles through slits in a metal frame. They wanted to understand the nature of matter and so the particles (electrons) in this experiment represented microscopic bundles of "matter." When the scientists projected beams of electrons through two upright slits in the metal frame the waves interfered with each other after passing through the slits, creating columns of imprints on a fluorescent screen. The spots on the screen where the waves from the two slits arrived in phase showed up bright and the spots where the waves arrived out of phase and canceled each other out showed up dark. Hence, there was a pattern of alternating light and dark spots revealing a wave interference pattern. The scientists then decided to make the beam very weak and only shoot one electron at a time. What happened was unexpected as the single electron passed through both slits at the same time as a wave function and interfered with itself when re-emerging, causing the same interference pattern on the fluorescent screen. The scientists were baffled so they placed a measuring device by the slits to see how the single electron could possible go through both slits at the same time. When they observed this the electron behaved like a particle, going through only one slit and not causing an interference pattern on the screen.

The conclusion was made. The very act of perceiving the electron turned it from a field of possibilities (a wave) into a singularity (a particle). Consciousness (the measuring device) created the reality. Similarly, when physicists studied the atom they found a nucleus orbited by a field of electrons. When they tried to pinpoint individual electrons the task became impossible because the electrons only existed as a field of wave functions. Both the momentum and position of a single electron could not be calculated at the same time; the areas hypothesized to reveal the electron only existed as a probability field. It was like the electrons existed in this dimension but also other dimensions as well because they would pop in and out of the...
