Dimension Six is about physics, but it's about more than physics. It is a captivating exploration that transcends the boundaries of traditional physics and offers a fresh perspective on the enigmatic relationship between the physical world and consciousness.

Modern physics, with its awe-inspiring revelations, beckons us to question the very fabric of reality. Why does space impose a cosmic speed limit, confining objects to move slower than light? How does mass transform and time warp under extreme velocities? The elusive nature of particles and the peculiarities of acceleration versus velocity in our daily experiences only deepen the intrigue. These phenomena, well-charted yet perpetually dazzling, happen at extreme dimensions - the very fast, the very small, the very massive, and the very distant. But the crux of these mysteries lies in the connection to the observer, to consciousness itself. In the absence of an observer, the existence of a material object becomes a perplexing quandary.

Dimension Six beckons us to revisit our understanding of dimensions and their relationship with consciousness. Once perceived as fixed structures of an external world, dimensions are now revealed as fluid, bending, and merging realms at their extremes, courtesy of relativity theory and quantum mechanics. Is a dimension an intrinsic element of the material universe, or is it a cornerstone of consciousness itself?

This book is written for those with some exposure to physical science - from basic physics courses to advanced Ph.D. studies. But most importantly, it is an invitation to those willing to venture beyond conventional thinking. Dimension Six sparks a paradigm shift by challenging the fundamental assumptions underpinning our comprehension of consciousness and physical reality.

If you seek an insightful exploration of the perplexities in modern physics and a revelation of why we perceive the world as external and material, then this book promises not only intrigue but also enlightenment.

What is the connection between physics and consciousness? In this groundbreaking new book, Samuel Avery presents the quantum screen, a paradigm-shifting model of perceptual consciousness and of the world. This model looks to the enigmas of modern physics to demonstrate the primacy of consciousness--the essential oneness of spirit and matter.

Our intellectual culture is divided between two poles--science and religion. It's often assumed that these two disciplines--each individually essential and intriguing--cannot speak to one another. Physics cannot answer spiritual questions. Theories of consciousness have no place in the laboratory. In fact, the opposite is true.

While mental and physical experiences appear to be separate realities, Avery believes that a new understanding of dimensions (space, time and mass) will unite them. Dimensions as structures of perceptual consciousness will awaken a creative convergence of quantum mechanics, relativity theory, and ancient meditation traditions.

Scientifically rigorous and spiritually profound, Avery's model is far from a mere concept or belief. He offers both an explanation of the quantum screen, as well as an opportunity to experience it directly. He deftly weaves humanism into the fabric of hard science. The result is illuminating and potentially life changing, with significant implications for how we understand nature, ourselves, and each other.

This is the only book on the market that explains physics and the everyday world in terms of consciousness alone. Space and time - and the physical world they define - are a structure of consciousness. We can understand the motion of the planets only by putting the sun at their center; similarly, we can understand modern physics only if we put space and time within consciousness.
Buddha and the Quantum is also unique in that it shows why we think there is a world independent of consciousness. The concept of material substance is explained in terms of the same structure of consciousness that explains quantum mechanics and relativity theory.

Kalapa is a Buddhist term for a subtle sensation: a point of consciousness in the body. Barely noticeable most of the time, it fills awareness during meditation. It is the voice of a cell. This book shows that it is also the quantum. Quanta arranged in space-time - photons - are visual consciousness: the experience of cells in the retina. This explains why modern physics has had so much difficulty understanding light. Light is not in space; space is in light.

Buddha and the Quantum describes how experience in the physical world is built not from objective reality, but from experience within. Avery's brilliant model of consciousness makes difficult and subtle ideas understandable, surprising you with the implications.
