Amit Goswami, Ph.D.

Creative Evolution

Reared in the sacred Hindu Tradition, Amit has devoted his career to integrating science and spirituality.

He shows that consciousness, not matter, is the ground of all being. Here he takes the final step, integrating all science into a coherent whole in a way that resolves the heated controversy between evolution and intelligent design. This revolutionary work will encourage and satisfy you:

-If you believe in intelligent design but see through the naivete of creationists

-If you don’t care for intelligent-design talk, but see through the naive materialism of neo-Darwinish thought

-If you are a thoughtful lay reader or professional scientist tired of seeing the field of biology become preoccupied with engineering while shunning the search for the human soul.

True believers (either in scientific materialism or in the Bible) are also warmly welcomed. Goswami’s vision may heal, not only the divide between evolution and intelligent design, but all deep societal rifts arising from the division of scientifc and spiritual thought. It may also lead to a new paradigm for biology – one that recognizes lifes purposefulness.

God is Not Dead

God Is Not Dead is a fascinating guided tour of quantum physics, consciousness, and the existence and experience of God. Amit shows readers that God’s existence can be found in clues that the science of quantum physics reveals.

Goswami helps readers to break through their materialistic conditioning, viewing reality as defined by Newtonian physics, to become free through a quantum understanding and experience of consciousness and God.

In fact, God Is Not Dead argues for a quantum activism, leading a balanced life that incorporates both the quantum and material worlds and an experience of consciousness.

God Is Not Dead will change how readers think and experience the nature of reality, the existence of souls, the power of dreams, the universality of love, the possibility of ESP, and the very mind of God.

The Self-Aware Universe

Consciousness, not matter, is the ground of all existence, declares University of Oregon physicist Goswami, echoing the mystic sages of his native India. He holds that the universe is self-aware, and that consciousness creates the physical world. Calling this theory “monistic idealism,” he claims it is not only “the basis of all religions worldwide” but also the correct philosophy for modern science. Once people give up the assumption that there is an objective reality independent of consciousness, the paradoxes of quantum physics are explainable, contends Goswami, writing with his wife and Reed ( Building the Future from Our Past ). He also applies his hypothesis to the so-called mind-body schism, which he attempts to heal. Sketching a model of the self, this demanding but rewarding treatise uses analogies from the “new physics” to throw light on choice, free will, creativity, the unconscious and paths to spiritual growth.

The Visionary Window

Does God exist? Can spirituality be integrated with science? Is happiness possible? Do miracles really happen? Not only does The Visionary Window answer ” yes” to all of these questions, but it skillfully combines the fields of philosophy, cosmology, religion, and psychology to form a new way of thinking about science and spirituality.

Stepping beyond the classic work of prominent seventies physicist Fritjof Capra, Goswami details his own pioneering exploration of science and spirit, revealing the complete integration between modern science and spiritual traditions. Using stories and colorful examples from pop culture, Goswami addresses complex issues in language and terminology easily accessible to the lay reader. He provides quantum physics-based theory and new experimental data verifying the metaphysical truth that exists when employed in the context of a new science, science within the primacy of consciousness.
