One Turning
Universus
A Book by Edmund Wood
~
This book challenges the reader to reconsider their understanding of reality, consciousness, and the very meaning of life. Drawing upon a lifetime of profound introspection and unique personal experiences, Edmund Wood presents a perspective that is both deeply personal and universally resonant.
This book invites you to question everything you think you know about reality and the nature of your own being. It asks you to return to the source, to the purity of early childhood experience, before the constructs of ego and societal indoctrination clouded your perception. The author believes these early experiences, unfiltered by external influences, offer a glimpse into the true nature of consciousness and the divine spark within each of us.
The concept of the First Self
, a state of pure awareness unburdened by the weight of self-awareness and time, forms the bedrock of the book's exploration. Through vivid personal accounts, the author recalls memories that predate language and societal conditioning. This First Self, is not individual but universal, a shared wellspring of consciousness that connects us all.
The book challenges the conventional understanding of reality, propounding that our experience is only a construct of the mind, and but a story woven from sensory input and filtered through the lens of our beliefs.
The author presents a unique perspective on spirituality, emphasising personal experience over dogma and external authorities. He encourages readers to trust their own inner knowing, and return to the purity of early childhood experiences to uncover the truth, and to explore the depths of their own consciousness to rediscover the divine within. He critiques the reliance on societal narratives and organised religion, arguing that they perpetuate limiting beliefs and obscure the true nature of the divine.
The book grapples with complex concepts such as the nature of consciousness, and the illusion of reality. Wood proposes that consciousness is an inherent property of the brain, and he challenges the reader to question their perception of reality, highlighting the mind's role in constructing experience and the limitations of language in capturing the true nature of existence.
One Turning
is a bold and challenging work that encourages readers to embark on their own journeys of self-discovery. It invites us to question our preconceived notions, reconnect with our innate divinity, and embrace the wonder and mystery of existence. This book is sure to spark profound contemplation and a deeper appreciation for the interconnectedness of all things.
Prepare to confront your preconceived notions, and to embrace a new understanding of yourself and the universe.
