Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real Erwin Schrodinger Quantum physics thus reveals a basic oneness of the universe A careful analysis of the process of observation in atomic physics has shown that the subatomic particles have no meaning as isolated entities but can only be understood as interconnections between the preparation of an experiment and the subsequent measurement What we observe as material bodies and forces are nothing but shapes and variations in the structure of space Max Born The belief that there is only one truth and that oneself is in possession of it seems to me the root of all the evil that is in the world I am now convinced that theoretical physics is actually philosophy Louis De Broglie The actual state of our knowledge is always provisional and there 65 Daniel D Barber must be beyond what is actually known immense new regions to discover Max Planck I regard consciousness as fundamental I regard matter as derivative from consciousness We cannot get behind consciousness Everything that we talk about everything that we regard as existing postulates consciousness As a man who has devoted his whole life to the most clear headed science to the study of matter I can tell you as a result of my research

I am not trying to start a religion Universal Consciousness We are all a part of a Universal Consciousness at the highest frequencies of our being This consciousness becomes 58 The Visceral Experience more accessible to us as we dis inhibit our innate energy and raise our vibrational rate The Universal Consciousness is all encompassing in its scope and is synonymous with the zero point field of which everything is made and from which everything springs This may be the Akashic Records that we ve all heard about the library that holds the sum of all knowledge and wisdom of the universe Eye of Infinity This is the experience I described in the introduction It was similar in character to a standard OBE but with one major difference the control exhibited by the entity over my experience I felt like I was a visitor to his reality not like he was a part of mine Heaven This is the top of The Astral Layer of experiences Its character is blissful happy and joyous and it left within me a feeling of unity with all of mankind I could see how others steeped in the religious thinking of their forefathers could interpret similar experiences as an expression of their particular heaven 59 Daniel D Barber Simple Astral The Simple Astral is the middle of The Astral Layer It is in this layer that I became comfortable with the idea of altered states with the idea that reality

14. the concept of lucid dreaming This is when I discovered what is commonly called the out of body experience OBE I had purchased a copy of the book Adventures Beyond The Body by William Buhlman and after reading and practicing his methods for no more than a couple of weeks I had my first OBE The first time I went out of body the experience hit me like a ton of bricks OBEs drastically affected my understanding 21 Daniel D Barber of reality I quickly expanded my exploration beyond my former boundaries for explanations of how reality worked I became preoccupied with reading about and investigating lucid dreaming and OBEs which had the further effect of increasing their frequency Using the methods William Buhlman discusses in his book I was able to gain a scintilla of control during my experiences It was this ability to control my environment while OBE that convinced me that what I was experiencing was real All in all it only took three weeks from the time I first set my intent until I experienced my first OBE I discuss this more in Powerful Intent Unfortunately I soon began a new job that dominated my attention for the better part of a year and my exploration into matters of the mind took a back seat to more mundane concerns It took me nearly five years to re focus and delve back into these wonderful and amazing experiences Around the same time I was reading books written for the la

I have not dedicated my life to any theology nor do I have a special pedigree wherein power has been handed down from my forefathers I don t dress differently unless you consider jeans and t shirt to be different and I don t pray tithe or sacrifice animals I am the same as you I was able to achieve these results by using the process I lay out in the pages ahead What follows is a framework for achieving spiritual growth that is not encumbered by unnecessary ceremony or the need to learn esoteric terms 10 The Visceral Experience You Quantum Computer 11 Daniel D Barber The User Manual Even sleepers are workers and collaborators in what goes on in the Universe Heraclitus We have in our possession one of the most sophisticated quantum computers in existence It is self replicating self cleaning self regulating constantly regenerating and capable of reproducing near exact copies of itself Indeed many times our copies feature attribute improvements and refinements not available in the previous model I certainly know that this is true of mine Each of the atoms in each of our cells regardless of cell type interfaces directly with The Quantum The atoms of our cells interpret our will and intent distill them into commands and then pass those commands into The Quantum The Quantum accepts these commands and executes them Sometimes the commands are strong powerful well de
17. You may ask yourself How is The Visceral Experience different from the visualization methods you have already read about and mastered Just as the combustion engine replaced the horse the cow and the ox useful though they were for their time the technology of The Visceral Experience replaces or updates the concept of visualization Those beasts of burden were useful and got the job done They were able to pack and pull heavy loads for long distances in extreme conditions But they didn t go anywhere fast and sometimes folks might have wondered if they were moving at all That is my experience with older methods of visualization There have been many useful books written about visualization which have helped thousands if not millions of people better achieve their goals and improve their lives Creative Visualization by Shakti Gawain was perhaps the first and is probably the most well known of this genre Learning and practicing the visualization techniques she describes in her book 119 Daniel D Barber is a good first step but is pretty much hit or miss Regardless along with affirmations and setting your intent it is good practice anyway Building on this the movie and book The Secret by Rhonda Byrne arrived to much acclaim and success Millions of copies of the books were sold and millions of people have watched the movie Oprah did a show about the concept and yet all that
