Summary

The hit film was just the beginning of the journey. This book uses the ideas, concepts and "mind-bending" science as the starting point from which to explore in depth the foundations of the new paradigm, the quantum physics of our internal processes and the outer boundaries of the known universe. And on the other side of the known? Open up. Find out. Book jacket.

Excerpts

What IS a Great Question? Why should we bother? What makes it Great? Let's say a spaceship lands next to you on the coffee table (does size matter?) and inside is The Universal Book of Everything. And you get to ask one question.What is that question? This may seem a little silly, but it's worth the effort. Take a minute and think.What would that question be? It can be anything. Go ahead and write it down in a journal. Now let's say The Book is feeling a little underutilized these days, and you get a bonus question. Think of something that you are just plain curious about. It can be wondering if Elvis is still alive, or where you left your car keys. Something that simply tickles your fancy.Write that down, too. And by now The Book is feeling a little depleted, and it got to be The Universal Book of Everything by asking questions of everyone and getting real answers. So, the question for you (the answer to which will be added in The Book) is: What is the One Thing you know for sure? Great QuestionsùThe Can Opener of Consciousness Aside from the few like Fred Alan Wolf (who we quoted on the opening page), when do we ever get encouraged to ask questions? And yet, most of those grand discoveries and revelations that our society cherishes came from asking questions. Those things, those answers, that we study in school came from questions. Questions are the precursor, or first cause, in every branch of human knowledge. The Indian sage Ramana Maharshi told his students the path to Enlightenment was summed up in: "Who am I?" The physicist Niels Bohr asked, "How can an electron move from A to B, and never go in between?" These questions open us up to what we previously didn't know.And they're really the only way to get thereùto the other side of the unknown. Why ask a Great Question? Asking a Great Question is an invitation to an adventure, a journey of discovery. It's thrilling to set out on a new adventure; there's the bliss of freedom, the freedom to explore new territory. So why don't we ask these questions? Because asking questions opens the door to chaos, to the unknown and unpredictable. The minute you ask a question you truly don't know the answer to, you open yourself up to a field of all possibilities. Are you willing to receive an answer you may not like or agree with? What if it makes you uncomfortable, or carries you outside the zone of safety and security you've built for yourself? What if the answer isn't what you want to hear!? It doesn't take muscles; it takes bravery to ask a question. Now let's consider what makes a question Great. A Great Question doesn't have to come from a philosophy book, or be about Life's Big Issues. A Great Question for you might be, "What would happen if I decided to go back to college and get a degree in a new field?" or "Should I listen to that voice that keeps telling me to go to California or China?" or "Is it possible to discover what is inside a neutrino?" Asking any of these question
