The Universal Mind: An exploration into life's biggest questions of existence, creation, evolution, consciousness, the mind, the universe, humanity, human psychology and the illusion of reality.

by Peter Weisz

Are we all slaves to a gross illusion? Who are we? What is the mind, what is consciousness and what is reality? This book offers educated answers and explanations to all these questions and more. This book motivates the reader to reconsider everything they think they know about themselves and the world today, examining the different models of creation, evolution of humanity and the universe, the essence of matter and of life itself, exploring all manner of scientific, theological, psychological and philosophical and metaphysical hypotheses and offering insights into ancient mystical wisdom and the road to enlightenment. Can it be, that this complex, living, breathing, sophisticated, opinionated, creative and conscious entity that we call human, is made up merely from a few invisible atoms of nothingness? We are not simply made from flesh and blood - we are beings of an infinity of dimensions, too vast to contemplate, but our brains and our senses are only able to perceive that which is rooted in matter, for that is the substance from which we believe we are made. What we call reality, is most definitely not what it appears to be.

As this is my book, I am bound to give it a good review. I truly believe that a person can learn some important things about the nature of life through my 30+ years of research and study on the topics of consciousness, the mind, existence and the human condition. I have tried to condense more than 2000 years of philosophical, spiritual, mystical and scientific thought, whilst adding in my own personal theories, into one simplified version of what reality is all about.

Perfect read for those who ponder the nature of reality in traffic jams and the mechanics of consciousness at 3am. Succinct, fresh and thought provoking yet, a surprisingly easy read. Food for thought without the mental indigestion. Loving it.

The universal mind is a book written to help you explore yourself and your mind to find the real you. This book explores visualization techniques, to leave your body behind and explore the world around you. Floating upward and seeing that you, and your problems are really small compared to the rest of the world or even the universe for that matter.

How can we change the world? It all begins with you treating others, the way you would like to be treated, and the world will give back to you your kindness. Detach yourself from the anger of others, and let go.
To begin healing the world you need to heal yourself. As this book progresses it explores feelings. Feelings are what you take in, and as such it is important that you experience a different range of feelings. From fear, through to happy feelings, this book explains both.

People are able, by the power of thought, able to change negative desires to normal chemical balances. More realizations like this, are revealed as the book progresses. We learn about growing up, god and science, to eventually the highly valuable knowledge of this book The Universal Mind.

You are limited only by your beliefs, move beyond belief and you find that you are knowledge. So many valuable insights can be found within this book, which everyone needs to read to find out your true self. The whole universe is no more than an illusion. A worthwhile read to find out, more about yourself.

Like many philosophical texts, this book tries to answer questions behind not only the nature of the universe, but also the reasoning which drives the push and pull surrounding our actions. However, that is where the similarity with other texts ends. Instead of offering a nearly impossible to follow, multifaceted diatribe of how specific rules fit only for certain circumstances within a narrowed point of thought, this book offers a simplified all-compassing point of reasoning which can be applied to every circumstance. To understand that reasoning, one must read it, which is more than worth the cost. Believe me.

The Universal Mind is a “dissection” of the human mind and it’s connection with the unknown and unexplainable. The author takes us on a journey deep within ourselves exploring the differences and similarities between our brains, our bodies, and our minds down to the lowest levels known to us - particles, waves, and bosons. The book criticizes religions and gives them a new meaning.

I would recommend the book to anyone interested in exploring the topic of mind vs matter and of mind vs brain. The narrative guides the reader into a deeper and deeper understanding with every next chapter.

What I got from this book is a set of questions that I would like to explore for myself. What does the connection with the “Universal Mind” mean for myself? How do I see it in my life? How can I dive deeper?

This interesting book has taught me a thing or two and is very thought provoking indeed. All explained in layman's terms for everyone to understand. It's well explained and takes you to a place where you want to know more. I am looking forward to this author's next book. If it is anything like this one I am sure to buy the next one as well.

Good read overall. Very conversational in writing and some good information. Whether or not its completely scientifically accurate though is defined by the reader and their level of understanding on the subject. Has great points, I enjoyed reading it.
