The following is a review written by Dr. Lawrence Sheaff of Dr. Tony Nader’s new book One Unbounded Ocean of Consciousness
Today’s World
The basis of language is A, B, C. But what is the basis of A, B, C? Where does ‘A’ come from? The basis of mathematics is 1, 2, 3 but what is the basis of 1, 2, 3? Where does ‘1’ come from? Huge structures of knowledge have been built up from these simple units, A, B, C – 1, 2, 3. But a system of knowledge without a clearly defined, unshakable basis will be weak and vulnerable.
Since a civilisation is built upon knowledge, if its knowledge is flawed or doesn’t align fully with the way nature functions holistically, that civilization itself will be flawed and therefore weak and vulnerable. It would be like a house with a weak foundation. When a strong wind blows, it will collapse. Without knowing the true foundation of everything in consciousness, the whole of our contemporary knowledge is incomplete. It is baseless. Without a base, without an absolute foundation, knowledge is left hanging in the air. Its purpose will be confused and out of tune with natural law, making all levels of communication vulnerable to distortion and corruption.
The results of applying such fragmented knowledge is demonstrated in the state of the world today – not unity everywhere, but fragmentation everywhere.
Consciousness – The Last Frontier
However, there is a new awakening. Despite the corruption of knowledge and its widespread misuse, there has been a steady expansion of understanding taking place globally. Science has been exploring a non-material field that appears to give rise to the material creation. Manifest concrete matter appears to have its source in an unmanifest abstract unified field of natural law. A step beyond that is now taking place and is at the cutting edge of scientific research all over the world. The theme is ‘consciousness’. What is consciousness? Is it primary (before the emergence of matter) or is it secondary (the result of a sophisticated organization of matter).
The Solution to All Problems
The uniqueness of Dr. Nader’s book is that it is not speculative. It positively asserts in compelling steps of logic, backed by established scientific fact, that consciousness is primary, that consciousness is all there is, that consciousness gives rise to matter, that all is singularly and only ‘one unbounded ocean of consciousness in motion’. Having established this model, Dr. Nader unveils something even more remarkable. Using this ‘consciousness is primary’ paradigm, he is able to resolve in one breathtaking sweep the whole spectrum of unanswered questions that have haunted science, philosophy, and religion down the centuries.
SOME EXCERPTS FROM THE BOOK
“Consciousness in its essential nature is beyond the brain and beyond individuality. It is unbounded pure being, the Self of everything and everyone, the Unified Field.”
“Consciousness exists, Consciousness is all there is, and Consciousness is conscious.”
“The singularity at the heart of nature and the universe is Consciousness.”
“The narrower the awareness, the smaller will be the range and degree of freedom.”
“The greater the awareness, the higher is the potential for positive feeling and for purposeful decision-making.”
“Everything one does, says, thinks, feels, or imagines is a reflection of one’s consciousness.”
“The more limited an individual’s awareness, the less is their ability to make right decisions.”
“It is time for another wave of transformation that will uplift the way we relate to and with each other and our common, vital environment, and build the world all men and women have dreamed of, a Heaven on Earth.”
“Realistically, the darkness of conflict and suffering cannot vanish with a flash of light – but the process begins all at once. No matter how long is the night, when the dawn breaks it is no longer dark.”
Practical, Proven Programmes to Bring Life in Harmony with Natural Law
Furthermore, Dr. Nader introduces practical programmes incorporated in Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s complete revival of the ancient Veda and Vedic Literature of India – Maharishi Vedic Science and Technology of Transcendental Meditation. These ancient, time-tested practical programmes have been researched and repeatedly validated over the past forty years all over the world by modern scientific research that has been published in the world’s leading peer-reviewed scientific journals.
What does this research confirm? It confirms that the human psycho-physiology is the totality of natural law in localised form. That human intelligence can, in a simple, natural way, align itself precisely with nature’s unbounded power of intelligence for a happy, harmonious, problem-free life in freedom.
Meeting the Need of the Time
Dr. Nader’s book systematically develops in a thoroughly modern scientific way the structure and dynamics of the one unbounded ocean of consciousness as revived in Maharishi Vedic Science.
Dr. Nader’s background as a Harvard-trained Medical Doctor and his Post-Doctoral researches, combined with a genuine, heartfelt concern for the health, happiness and fulfillment of all his fellow human beings, has led to this seminal book. It is a work that directly addresses and fulfills the desperate need of our time for solutions to the seemingly ever-mounting problems our world is facing. The incredible assertion of this book is that living life in a permanent state of bliss consciousness is easy to attain through the Transcendental Meditation programme and its advanced techniques.
This is because bliss consciousness, the totality of natural law, is not something far away. It is the closest thing to us. It is our own innermost Self – our own Unbounded Ocean of Consciousness at the source of thought deep within.
