Wolf, Fred Alan

Fred is an international lecturer on consciousness and the new physics. He has a PhD in theoretical physics and is the author of numerous books including Taking the Quantum Leap; Parallel Universes; The Dreaming Universe; The Eagle's Quest; The Spiritual Universe; Mind into Matter; Matter into Feeling; The Yoga of Time Travel: How the Mind Can Defeat Time; and Dr. Quantum Presents, A Little Book of Big Ideas. In describing his writing, Fred says, “I consider myself to be an imaginative and futuristic science writer. I firmly believe that imagination in science is Note: The change to pitch (10) and font (2) must be converted manually.moreNote: The change to pitch (10) and font (8) must be converted manually. important than fact. That through imaginative interpretation, facts taken in one context can change and be seen entirely differently when viewed in an entirely new context. In other words, facts are relatively unimportant when compared with meaning. In that sense I am a rebel to objective science. I want to know why as well as I want to know how.” Applying these principles to the soul, Fred believes that “the key to the soul can be found in the deep connection between observer and observed. This interaction, at the quantum level, helps explain how the soul connects to what we understand as matter. The soul must be understood as a process, not as an entity opposed to matter…. The soul is alive and vibrant yet experienced subjectively. The world that we see with our everyday eyes--through the filter of our senses--is derived from a more ‘objective’ world. It seems that the ‘out there’ objective world and the subjectively experienced ‘soul world’ are in conflict with each other. This corresponds to what spiritual teachers have been saying about what happens when living spirit descends into objective matter--there's a fight. So if we become too involved with the objective, external processes of life, we tend to lose touch with perception from the level of our soul. It’s when we go within into an internal quietness, as in meditation, we can begin to perceive something which is deeper and more meaningful than just the objective “out there-ness.” So it’s really important for those of us who have lost touch with our souls to spend some quiet time--not in thinking, not in going over the day's list of everything that has to be done--but in being with yourself in ways that allow a deeper inner reality to bubble up from within your consciousness.”

Can Religion Be Explained Without God?

Most people believe that God exists and religion is God’™s revelation. But some claim that religion needs nothing supernatural; that religion, without God, can flourish because personal psychology and group sociology drive religion.
