- Presents the unifying world concept long sought by scientists,
mystics, and sages: an integral theory of everything
- Explains how modern science has rediscovered the Akashic field of
perennial philosophy
- New edition updates ongoing scientific studies, presents new research
inspired by the first edition, and includes new case studies and a
section on animal telepathy
Mystics and sages have long maintained that there exists an
interconnecting cosmic field at the roots of reality that conserves and
conveys information, a field known as the Akashic record. Recent
discoveries in vacuum physics show that this Akashic field is real and
has its equivalent in science's zero-point field that underlies space
itself. This field consists of a subtle sea of fluctuating energies from
which all things arise: atoms and galaxies, stars and planets, living
beings, and even consciousness. This zero-point Akashic field is the
constant and enduring memory of the universe. It holds the record of all
that has happened on Earth and in the cosmos and relates it to all that
is yet to happen.
In Science and the Akashic Field, philosopher and scientist Ervin
Laszlo conveys the essential element of this information field in
language that is accessible and clear. From the world of science, he
confirms our deepest intuitions of the oneness of creation in the
integral theory of everything. We discover that, as philosopher William
James stated, "We are like islands in the sea, separate on the surface
but connected in the deep."
