'A fascinating, comprehensive, and accessible exploration of life's most fundamental questions. If you're wondering who we are and why we're here, this book is a great place to start.' - Mark Gober, award-winning author ofAn End to Upside Down Thinking and board member at the Institute of Noetic Sciences

Is our physical universe actually a virtual simulation that is thought into existence by consciousness? Noted astrophysicist Bernard Haisch explores the frontiers of science, consciousness, and God, revolutionising our understanding of the universe and what's behind it all.

Have you ever wondered why and how the world around you came to exist and whether there might be another experience awaiting you after the physical body dies? Might there actually be a God and a heaven of some sort? Without consciousness there is nothing. The hypothesis presented in this book is that our seemingly physical universe of matter and energy is a virtual simulation which is thought into existence by a universal consciousness which we call God. Authors Bernard Haisch and Marsha Sims tackle age-old metaphysical questions such as the following:

Are near-death experiences real? What is the zero-point field? What kind of being could God be? Is there some place that God could have come from? How does the Big Bang figure into this? It there an afterlife, and what could it be like? What is the purpose of life? Is consciousness all there is? Is the universe a virtual reality? Why is hell impossible?

Bernard Haisch, Ph.D. is an astrophysicist, author of over 130 scientific publications, and was a scientific editor of the Astrophysical Journal for ten years. After earning his Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin in Madison, Haisch did postdoctoral research at the Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics, University of Colorado at Boulder, and the University of Utrecht, the Netherlands. His professional positions include staff scientist at the Lockheed Martin Solar and Astrophysics Laboratory; deputy director of the Center for Extreme Ultraviolet Astrophysics at the University of California, Berkeley; and visiting scientist at the Max-Planck-Institute fr Extraterrestrische Physik in Garching, Germany. He was also editor-in-chief of the Journal of Scientific Exploration. Prior to his career in astrophysics, Haisch attended the Latin School of Indianapolis and the St. Meinrad Seminary as a student for the Catholic priesthood. He is also the author ofThe God TheoryandThe Purpose-Guided Universe. Marsha Sims, M.M. has a multi-disciplined background and years of experience interfacing with businesses, scientists and their projects, and immersing herself in the music world. Her experience includes: administrator and department secretary at Lockheed Palo Alto Research Laboratory; executive editor at the Journal of Scientific Exploration; administrator at Calif. Institute for Physics and Astrophysics; administrator, graphic artist, and photographer at ManyOne Networks and Digital Universe Foundation. She has taught voice, piano, and guitar at her own company (www.marshasimsmusic.com) since 2009. Marsha has performed over twenty lead roles in community theater and opera in the San Francisco Bay area. She was a church choral director and soloist for many years. She is also a certified Huna teacher.

Reviews for The Miracle of Our Universe: A New View of Consciousness, God, Science, and Reality

""A fascinating, comprehensive, and accessible exploration of life's most fundamental questions. If you're wondering who we are and why we're here, this book is a great place to start."" --Mark Gober, award-winning author of An End to Upside Down Thinking and board member at the Institute of Noetic Sciences ""A book about heaven and God that makes a strong case for both--coming from a pathbreaking astrophysicist. A mind-expanding book. Not to be missed."" --Ervin Laszlo, author of Science and the Akashic Field ""A gifted scientist's wonderful look at human consciousness and the hereafter through the mind-bending revelations of modern science. A beautiful achievement!!"" --Larry Dossey, MD, author of Space, Time, and Medicine ""Anyone who reads this book will be challenged to reframe their view of mind and consciousness in ways that offer an alternative to materialism. The table of contents alone is a brilliant scope note, and the coauthors do a beautiful job with each probing chapter. Great book, engaging writing, readable by all."" --Stephen G. Post, PhD, president of the Institute for Research on Unlimited Love ""This is a delightful and thought-provoking book, whose main author is an eminent scientist and a Christian who is highly original in his thinking. It offers some unconventional and many insightful responses to fundamental questions about the nature of reality and the amazing universe in which we live, the nature of God, and about how our deaths are unlikely to be the end but may well lead to a heaven where we are welcome."" --Eric Priest, PhD, professor emeritus at the University of St. Andrews, Scotland and a fellow of the Royal Astronomical Society ""Bernard Haisch and Marsha Sims get it. Consciousness is causal and fundamental. And in their book The Miracle of Our Universe they lay out the new paradigm and what it means in a unique way. One that accurately makes the link between science and religion."" --Stephan Schwartz, author of seven books, over one hundred technical papers, and distinguished faculty member Saybrook University ""If you're a fan, like me, of quantum physics, Stephen Hawking, Deepak Chopra, or Eckhart Tolle, then you will love Dr. Bernard Haisch and Marsha Sims's latest book, The Miracle of Our Universe."" --Frances Kermeen, author of The Myrtles Plantation ""Science as practiced in Western universities is regrettably limited in its scope, avoiding many topics that are of interest to the intelligent layman--among them, the nature of life and death. Bernard Haisch, as a successful mainstream scientist and past editor of the wide-ranging Journal of Scientific Exploration, and Marsha Sims as the executive editor of the journal, are well qualified to review and comment on the relationship between scientific thinking and such ephemeral topics."" --Peter Sturrock, emeritus professor of Applied Physics at Stanford University
