Bill Harvey
“A Theory of Everything: To Help EveryoneRise to Today’s Challenges”
In this conversation author Bill Harvey will use slides and video to discuss his book A Theory of Everything, and how to thrive in an increasingly challenging world.
Einstein was among the first of the modern physicists to imagine that all of science could one day be stated in a single theory that would cover all phenomena, and he may have coined the term "theory of everything.” In Bill’s vision of reality consciousness is all that exists, and matter-energy-space-time exist within consciousness. Quantum physics gets closer and closer to that same vision every day, while physicalists violently reject it.
Bill discusses this debate among physicists, and speculates as to the reasons for the disagreements. He also relates his theory to explain why all religions may in fact have come about the same way he came about his theory. He hypothesizes that the present world turmoil may trace to the absence of a sense of higher purpose and meaning which would prevail if his theory were to be given credence.
Science was originally known by the name “natural philosophy” which contained a branch “metaphysics.” Religion and science were side by side within philosophy. The schism making them enemies is a relatively recent development. Bill gives his interpretation of how materialistic accidentalism has caused a world culture in which nobility has become something that social media users cringe at the thought of.
Bill Harvey is the founder and Executive Director of the Human Effectiveness Institute, and the author of eight books, including the groundbreaking Mind Magic: Doorways into Higher Consciousness (now in its 6th edition). He is also a leading market researcher, and has consulted with more than 100 Fortune 500 companies.
