Description:
“The most original and important contribution to the integration of Jungian psychology and physics since the original collaboration between Jung and Pauli.”Sean Kelly, Professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies“Timothy Desmond’s theory that the psyche is a gravitational singularity would drive both Isaac Newton and Sigmund Freud crazy. But any theory that doesn't is a waste of time. Desmond articulates a vision that just might be wild enough to take us home.”Brian Thomas Swimme, Author of Journey of the Universe“Psyche and Singularity is one of the most profoundly significant books I’ve had the pleasure to read. Tracing striking parallels between string theory and Jungian thought, Desmond provides the most compelling explanation for how synchronicities work that I’ve encountered.”Grant Maxwell, Author of The Dynamics of Transformation: Tracing an Emerging World View“The discussion may sound like insane science fiction, but Desmond offers a refreshingly accurate picture, a synthesis of psyche and quantum physics that becomes the key to unlock a map of consciousness and synchronicity backed by the central ideas of Pauli, Susskind, and Jung.”Shelli Joye, Author of Tuning the Mind: Holonomic Brain Theory and the Implicate OrderAccording to Stanford physicist Leonard Susskind, our three-dimensional universe is essentially a holographic “movie,” an illusion projected by one-dimensional threads of energy from the spherical horizon of the cosmos, where the past, present, and future are eternally superimposed. Psyche and Singularity shows how Susskind’s string theory of holographic information conservation corroborates some of psychologist Carl Jung’s most profound ideas. Timothy Desmond suggests that Susskind’s inside-out black hole model of the universe forms a geometrically perfect mandala: a central singularity encompassed by a two-dimensional sphere which serves as a universal memory bank. In precise fulfillment of Jung’s theory about the unifying quality of the mandala image as the “archetype of wholeness,” Susskind’s model of the universe reconciles the notoriously incommensurable paradigms of general relativity and quantum mechanics, providing a mathematically plausible explanation for Jung’s near-death experience of his past, present, and future life simultaneously at the cosmic horizon. Susskind’s theory also provides a plausible cosmological model to explain Jung’s theory of synchronicity— meaningful coincidences may be tied together by strings at the cosmic horizon, from which they radiate inward.
