Reviews
"Ornstein has always been on the frontier of new, speculative thinking about the workings of the mind ... No narrow specialist, he uses literature, myth and poetry, not to mention jokes, to illustrate his ideas... Ornstein can describe these ideas so that people without scientific training can grasp them . . . not only informative but entertaining as well." -Doris Lessing, novelist and writer, winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature "Ornstein is one of the more original thinkers in the fields of neurology and psychology. He has also the advantage of being gifted with the ability to expound difficult ideas simply ... by means of parables ..." -The Guardian "[Ornstein's] insights are startling, original and certain to change how we think about ourselves and others." -Paul Eckman, Professor Emeritus, University of California San Francisco, author of Telling Lies and Unmasking the Face "...one of the most witty and original psychologists writing today." -Booklist
Synopsis
A stunning unification of science and tradition for a revolutionary new concept of spirituality to address the challenges of the modern world. The book explores how our "everyday" mind works as a device for selecting just a few parts of the outside reality that are important for our survival. We don't experience the world as it is, but as a virtual reality - a small, limited system that evolved to keep us safe and ensure our survival. This system, though essential for getting us safely across a busy street, is insufficient for understanding and solving the challenges of the modern world. But we are also endowed with a quiescent "second network" of cognition that, when activated, can dissolve or break through the barriers of ordinary consciousness. We all experience this activation to some degree, when we suddenly see a solution to a problem or have an intuitive or creative insight - when we connect to a larger whole beyond the self. By combining ancient teachings with modern science, we have a new psychology of spiritual experience - the knowledge to explore how this second network can be developed and stabilized. The authors take care to differentiate this development from temporary trance experiences or from overloading the brain with drugs, dancing, drumming or other practices. Instead, they emphasize the need to reflect on and explicate, both individually and collectively, the functional value of virtues such as generosity, humility and gratitude, and of service. These attitudes and activities shift brain function away from the self and toward an expanded consciousness - an experience of the world's greater interconnectedness and unity and an understanding of one's place in it. Neither an academic tome nor a religious treatise, God 4.0 is a comprehensive, thoroughly researched work addressed to inquisitive, openminded people genuinely trying to understand life and meaning. It is written for critical thinkers; for readers of news, history, biography and science who seek more from life than is accessible through any one of these disciplines; for people who may find religion as they've encountered it to be unsatisfactory. The authors neither advocate nor dismiss organized religion, but contend that knowledge we have now of how higher consciousness happens in the brain allows us to move beyond faith, belief and ritual to a direct experience of self-transcendence, which has been called "seeing God." Developing this innate second system of perception could be the first step toward finding the vital common ground that reconciles science, religion and spirituality, allowing us to solve our global problems as we work toward a new spiritual literacy and enter a new era - God 4.0., A provocative new view of "God" centers on our innate quiescent faculty that, if developed, can help to dissolve religious, tribal and cultural biases and usher in a higher level of conscious connection- a new "spiritual literacy.", A stunning unification of science and tradition for a revolutionary new concept of spirituality to address the challenges of the modern world The book explores how our "everyday" mind works as a device for selecting just a few parts of the outside reality that are important for our survival.

- a***m (103)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufIn my 25 years of audio purchases, I have NEVER seen such quality packaging. Grills removed, surrounded by wrap and boxed separately, drivers covered with cardboard and gaffer tape, speaker corners protected with styrofoam. ASTOUNDING job to ensure I received my fairly priced item as described. I was truly impressed, so much that I'll follow their sales from now on. It is SO VERY RARE to get items shipped properly. Hats off to this seller. Sincerely, one happy customer.
- 6***c (969)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzter MonatBestätigter KaufAbsolutely perfect transaction all the way around! Fast shipping, excellent communication, and no unpleasant surprises with the actual product. Seriously, they weren't kidding when they said it was in like new condition. I bought this to replace the one I owned that I gave to my son. It arrived with the packaging to the actual Tailgater a little worn, but the tailgater itself was pristine. Came with everything intact. So happy to have this again. You can trust this seller! Buy with confidence.
