  • Are we in the midst of a major paradigm shift in science?

  • Is there an ultimate reality?

  • Does consciousness conceive, govern, construct, and become the physical universe?

  • Is the universe becoming self aware in the human nervous system?

  • Is the next stage of human development conscious evolution?

  • Do we have the ability to influence the future evolution of the cosmos?

  • How does our understanding of consciousness as pure potentiality enhance our capacity for intuition, creativity, conscious choice making, healing, and the awakening of dormant potentials such as non local communication and non-local sensory experience?

  • How does our understanding of consciousness also enhance our capacity for total wellbeing (physical, emotional, spiritual, social, community, financial, and ecological)?
