Their observations call into question our current views of reality, morality, and the nature of life in the universe. The authors challenge the reader to the deepest levels of thought with wide-ranging investigations of the ecology of inner and outer space, the role of chaos in the dynamics of human creation, and the resacralization of the world. Among the provocative questions the authors raise are: Is Armageddon a self-fulfilling prophecy? Are we humans the imaginers or the imagined? Are the eternal laws of nature still evolving? What is the connection between physical light and the light of consciousness? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003ePart ceremony, part old-fashioned intellectual discussion, these trialogues are an invitation to a new understanding of what Jean Houston calls \"the dreamscapes of our everyday waking life.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRupert Sheldrake, Ph.D., the author of several books including \u003ci\u003eSeven Experiments That Could Change the World\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eA New Science of Life\u003c\/i\u003e, and \u003ci\u003eThe Rebirth of Nature\u003c\/i\u003e, lives in England.
