Hi, I'm Maryam Williamson, and thank you very much for being with me for this hour.

We're talking about metaphysics on the podcast today,

meta as in greater than physics. We all know that there is the three-dimensional world,

but Buddha and others, including Einstein, have said that on some level, the world that we touch

with our hands and that we see with

our eyes is actually an illusion. Now, when you embrace that idea from a religious perspective,

from a spiritual perspective, or from a scientific perspective, that doesn't mean you're stupid

and that you don't know that if you drop a book onto the floor, that gravity will pull it down. It doesn't mean you're stupid and that you don't know that if you drop a book onto the floor,

that gravity will pull it down. It doesn't mean that you don't understand that car crashes happen.

It doesn't mean that you don't understand that you can't walk too close to the cliff because you might fall over.

It just means that there is more to life than meets the physical eye and that

we need to go further with that realization. And what's happening in the world today, including in the

world of science, including in the world of physics, particularly in the world of physics,

quantum physics, particularly, is that people are moving beyond the Newtonian scientific paradigm

that dominated the 20th century and opening up to a paradigm of science

in which the primacy and the dominance of consciousness is recognized. This has profound implications for our

lives. It has profound implications for how we live individually, and it has profound implications

for how we live collectively. And that's why I wanted to invite my guest on to the podcast this

hour, Dr. Bruce Lipton. His books are called

The Biology of Belief, Unleashing the Power of Consciousness Matter and Miracles.

Spontaneous evolution, our positive future, and a way to get there from here. The honeymoon

effect, the science of creating heaven on earth, and the biology of belief.
