         The Crack in the Cosmic Egg
      New Constructs of Mind and Reality


                                                       The classic work that shaped the thought of a generation with its powerful insights into                                                        the true nature of mind and reality.


• Defines culture as a "cosmic egg" structured by the mind's drive for logical ordering of its universe.
• Provides techniques allowing individuals to break through the vicious circle of logic-based systems to attain expanded ways of creative living and learning.

The sum total of our notions of what the world is--and what we perceive its full potential to be--form a shell of rational thought in which we reside. This logical universe creates a vicious circle of reasoning that robs our minds of power and prevents us from reaching our true potential. To step beyond that circle requires a centering and focus that today's society assaults on every level. Through the insights of Teilhard, Tillich, Jung, Jesus, Carlos Castaneda, and others, Joseph Chilton Pearce provides a mode of thinking through which imagination can escape the mundane shell of current construct reality and leap into a new phase of human evolution.

This enormously popular  classic is finally available again to challenge the assumptions of a new generation of readers and help them develop their potential through new creative modes of thinking. With a masterful synthesis of recent discoveries in physics, biology, and psychology, Pearce reveals the extraordinary relationship of mind and reality and nature's blueprint for a self-transcending humanity.
Enjoy your journey into an extraordinary and vital world of insight, intuition, and discovery.  And know that, having read this book, you'll never quite be the same as you were.  "Thom Hartmann, author of The Last Hours of Ancient Sunlight


"He reveals an extraordinary relationship of mind and reality and nature's blueprint for a self-transcending humanity."

"The Crack in the Cosmic Egg enters into universal creation,
cosmic energy, don Juan's teaching, etc., rebuilding and
destroying previous beliefs. It gives me hope for sheer
intellectual effort to penetrate into the vast reservoir of
intuitive knowledge."         John C. Lilly, M.D.,

"The Crack in the Cosmic Egg is the Phoenix rising from the ashes.

An amazing book. Everyone needs to read this to

About Deep Survival

When Aaron Ralston's hand was trapped by a boulder in a canyon in Utah, he was forced to cut it off to save his life. This galvanized the attention of the world because we all secretly wondered: Would I be able to do that?

What does it take to survive? Do we all have it in us? Deep Survival: Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why, provides some startling answers to these questions for people facing any sort of major crisis..... Just as you can become lost in the woods, you can become lost in business or in a relationship.

Read the rest of the info on the book's  website about Deep Survival and then ORDER THE BOOK. The information is exactly what we need to understand how our emotions and our reason work, separately and together.









We each live in our own reality, interfacing with our "cultural" reality. Much of what we have learned has gone unconscious and is automatically kept alive by our brain's constant dialogue. Since our "earthly reality" is "semantic (language/word based), it is constantly reinforced by this mental chatter. Near disaster must break upon us full force to penetrate the artificial "stable sameness" churning around in our word-filled head."

The Science of Innate Intelligence

Dr. Bruce Lipton follows a long line of brilliant scientists and teachers who have decoding the energy fields and how they effect our mind and body. Here is an hour and a half video by Dr. Lipton on how cells really work.  And here is the same video on You Tube but broken up into 17 segments.


Dr Bruce Lipton -Where Mind and Matter Meet
Jill Bolte Taylor (about Dr. Taylor on wikipedia) studied her own stroke as it happened -- and has become a powerful voice for brain recovery.
Jill Bolte Taylor got a research opportunity few brain scientists would wish for: She had a massive stroke, and watched as her brain functions -- motion, speech, self-awareness -- shut down one by one. An astonishing story that you cannot miss. Read more about it HERE and then watch the 20 minute video.

Essentially, this method is designed to get your neo-cortex, the thinking part of your brain, out of the way of your brain stem. If you are under continual stress, it is likely that your brain stem cannot reestablish equilibrium in your body. Your neo-cortex is constantly sending messages to your brain stem that keep you in a fight-or-flight state. Over time, this will create great wear-and-tear on your body and mind.

So how do you get out of the vicious cycle of stress? You just need to get out of the way of the brainstem and let it do its work. By helping to calm and empty your thinking mind, Brain Wave Vibration training allows you to transcend the negative thought patterns and emotions that keep you constantly in a state of stress.

Brain Wave Vibration training uses vibrations in the body to change the vibrations in the brain, creating waves that resonate properly with the rest of your bodily functions.

MAKING A KILLING:
The Untold Story of Psychotropic Drugging

FULL MOVIE - Documentary


This video provides the facts about psychotropic drugs and the huge profits they create for the pharmaceutical industry. These drugs all have variable and toxic side effects and are not tested in long term studies before being put on the market. Addictive, the doctors call this "dependency" instead of "addiction" because you do not have to take an increasing dose over time. Getting off them, however, is a major issue for most people and their shifting from drug to drug often becomes a way of life. Most of our "health care practitioners" see no problem with their patients being addicted to the same amount of any given drug on a daily basis. Over half of the people who commit suicide in the U.S. are prescribed psychotropic drugs. (Ex: Paxil (Paroxetine), Zoloft (Sertraline), Prozac, Wellbutrin (Bupropion), Effexor, Seroquil, Ultram (Tramadol), etc.). Some think the percentage is close to 80%.






Psychiatric Disorders:


The Facts Behind the Billion Dollar Marketing Campaign

The psychiatric/pharmaceutical industry spends billions of dollars a year in order to convince the public, legislators and the press that psychiatric disorders such as Bi-Polar Disorder, Depression, Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD/ADHD), Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, etc., are medical diseases on par with verifiable medical conditions such as cancer, diabetes and heart disease.  This is simply a way to maintain their hold on a $84 billion dollar-a-year psychiatric drug industry that is based on marketing and not science.  Unlike real medical disease, there are no scientific tests to verify the medical existence of any psychiatric disorder.   Despite decades of trying to prove mental disorders are biological brain conditions, due to chemical imbalances or genetic factors, psychiatry has failed to prove  even one of their hundreds of so-called mental disorders is due to a faulty or “chemically imbalanced” brain.
Based on the facts and statistics concerning psychotropic drugging—particularly of children—these eye-opening videos from CCHR reveal the devastation and death caused daily by psychiatric pseudoscience.

The real question therefore is this: Do people have a right to have all the information about (A) the known risks of the drugs and/or treatment from unbiased, nonconflicted medical review, (B) the medical validity of the diagnosis for which drugs are being prescribed, (C) all nondrug options (essentially informed consent) and (D) the right to refuse any treatment they consider harmful.
