Deviate by Beau Lotto - key...

American Classics

"Deviate: The Science of Seeing Differently" by Beau Lotto offers a revolutionary look at how we perceive the world. Lotto, a renowned neuroscientist, delves into the biology and psychology of perception, revealing that our brains are wired to see things based on past experiences and context, rather than reality itself. This insight challenges the conventional notion of objective observation and suggests that creativity and innovation stem from our ability to reinterpret our perceptions. 
Through engaging stories and scientific research, Lotto illustrates how our perceptions are not just passive receptions but active constructions of reality influenced by our emotional and psychological state. For instance, the book discusses historical episodes and optical illusions to show how context and expectation shape our reality, highlighting the power of the brain to see things differently when we alter our perspectives. 
At its core, "Deviate" encourages readers to question their assumptions and to recognize that by embracing uncertainty and reevaluating the familiar, we can unlock a wealth of creative potential. Lotto argues that understanding and challenging our perceptual biases can lead to a more fulfilling and adaptable existence, encouraging a shift from a fixed mindset to one that is open to new possibilities and change. 
This summary encapsulates the essential teachings of Lotto's work, offering a concise overview for those looking to understand the complex interplay between perception and reality. Whether you're familiar with the original book or new to Lotto's ideas, this audio summary provides practical insights into how we can all begin to see the world differently and harness our innate creativity.

Phowa - A call from the...

Óscar Mateo Quintana

This book introduces us to a visualization technique based on ancient traditions from Tibetan Buddhism, which is used to trans-fer consciousness to higher states. This is «phowa», a tool that Óscar Mateo grants us to help us recover the meaning of our existence.

It is an exciting journey through transcendence, which completely reconsiders the meaning of life, facilitating numerous arguments and testimonies that allow us to suspect that death is nothing more than a threshold to another state of being.

Accepting the idea that we are mere guests passing through this world raises very deep questions but lead us to understand life as a wonderful opportunity to accumulate experiences, learn and, above all, grow. There is no task more important than this.

It is time to accept the fact that our existence is eternal. From there, what is dramatic is no longer death, but the loss of reminding our true spiritual identity and the purpose of the present life.

This is a book for awakening, to raise one's consciousness, and also a message full of optimism with essential keys to understand reality and what happens to us.
