What is the purpose of this website?
Thomas Campbell’s trilogy, My Big TOE is a spectacular tome on, his Big TOE, or Thomas Campbell’s Big Theory Of Everything. As such, it cover, well, everything. As Campbell states, “A Big Picture Theory Of Everything or Big TOE must include metaphysics (ontology, epistemology, and cosmology) as well as physics and the other sciences within a single seamless integrated model of reality.”
For me, I have found the most amazing and useful topic that he covers extensively is the evolution of consciousness. I can say that this one topic has brought me through several progressive paradigm shifts, to my current understanding of who I am, what I am, why I am “here,” what is “here,” and how I can take conscious control of the evolution of my own individuated consciousness.
That is not to say all that Thomas Campbell covers in his trilogy is not important or necessary for a full understanding of what he is trying to convey to us. There may be other readers, perhaps physicists, who are much more interested in his proposals on cosmology and what is beyond it, time, various dimensions, etc. But it seems to me there might be many others who would prefer to focus their attention within this trilogy, specifically on consciousness evolution.
So, I set out to construct an abridged version of Thomas Campbell’s My Big TOE, a study guide if you will, which takes the reader through a narrow path within the work, focusing mainly on that topic. I have divided up this abridged version into twenty-four parts. I, along with others, have taken each part as a topic of concentrated review on a daily basis for one month. After twenty-four months of this process, I think the participant will be well on the way to a master’s (used in the academic sense) level of understanding of the topic of the evolution of consciousness.
Very important!!! Before you begin your individual journey through My Big TOE, it is highly advised to start with the section, Flatland.
