Description
The Mindful Universe explores the scientific workings of the Universe, its awe-inspiring nature and how it can be partnered with mindfulness to bring meaning to our lives.
Part of the Mindfulness series, this book looks at science through the lens of mindfulness and spirituality, bringing together two seemingly opposed beliefs through topics such as:
The journey of a photon
Our chemical origins from the birth of stars
The nature of time
The limits to our senses
The beauty of nebulae
Non-duality and quantum theory
... and much more
Mark Westmoquette takes you on a fascinating journey through space, time, our mind and the mysteries of the cosmos in this lovingly-written book. Through practical meditations, facts and anecdote, he points the reader to a life-affirming realisation: that when we start to observe things mindfully, just as they really are, we start to find the secrets of the Universe revealing themselves before our very eyes.
If you like this, you might also be interested in Einstein and the Art of Mindful Cycling . . .
