Tasting the UniversePeople Who See Colors in Words and Rainbows in Symphonies

Maureen Seaberg Foreword by William C. Bushell, PhD, Director of East-West Research for Tibet House

“When I spoke of my impressions as a child, I quicklylearned that my perceptions were not common; in fact,they were strange. Like many synesthetes around theworld, I learned to keep them to myself. Thus I’mgrateful for the present day climate of inquiry into andwonder about this nearly forgotten gift…. And whiletraditional medicine has always fascinated me, andresearch on this topic is currently burgeoning aroundthe world, I knew I must also call on consciousnessexperts. As someone who lived inside the experience, Iknew that anatomy alone did not, could not, hold all theanswers…. The beauty of the individual testimonies inthis book is that they are the subjects’ truths as onlysomeone who knows the gift intimately can speak aboutit; many of them are speaking at length about it for thefirst time. Their words about such an ineffableexperience have helped me find my own.”

—Maureen Seaberg in Tasting the Universe

A violinist sees a scarlet form when he plays a certain note; a rock star sees waves of blue and green as she composes a ballad; an actress tastes cake when she utters the word “table.”This fascinating mingling of the senses is called “synesthesia,”and the people who possess this amazing gift are called “synesthetes.”

Synesthesia is scientifically described as a cross-wiring, or lack of chemicalinhibition, between brain neurons that occurs in about five percent of thepopulation, often among “creatives”—musicians, artists, actors, writers,and so on. Scientific research is currently being conducted throughoutthe world to discover more about this condition. However, experts in thefields of spirituality and quantum physics are convinced that the truth ofsynesthesia lies not only within traditional science, but also within therealm of the mystical and the ineffable.

Step into Maureen’s glittering alternate universe as she explores this fascinating subject, combining clear explanations of groundbreaking scientific research with an exploration of deeper spiritual truths.

Tasting the Universe explains and explores:

F Why survivors of near-death experiences sometimes “return” with this amazing gift.

F Why all infants are believed to be synesthetes until four months of age.

F The experiences of famous synesthetes such as Itzhak Perlman, BillyJoel, Pharrell Williams, and Marilyn Monroe (whose biographer,Norman Mailer, first asserted that she possessed this gift).

For Maureen, synesthesia is not an idle “brain tick” that can be explainedaway by science (although it does offer some important clues), but aunique and ineffable ability to tap into and reveal a greater creative uni-verse and even the divine.

Follow along with her as she takes you on her own personal “Eat, Pray,Love” of discovery, prompted by her often confounding yet always amaz-ing experiences growing up with this gift.

Destiny vs. ChoiceThe Scientific and Spiritual Evidence Behind Fate and Free Will

Marie D. Jones, coauthor of 11:11 The Time Prompt Phenomenon

“You can’t avoid it, it’s written in the stars.”

“Life is what you make it.”

Well, which is it?

Since the day we are born, we are bombarded with the contradic-tory claims that our lives are predestined and that Fate deals us thecards we must play, or that our lives are the results of our choicesand that we shape it as we go along. Destiny vs. Choice examinesthe philosophical, spiritual, and scientific evidence for both claims,and shows us how we can live better, more fulfilling lives no mat-ter which side ultimately “wins” the debate.

Destiny vs. Choice explores:

F The historical battle between Fate and free will

F Intelligent design, evolution, the Big Bang, and DNA as blueprints for life

F How the world’s religions view destiny and choice

F The Law of Attraction, intention, and consciousness as ways to create reality

F How quantum physics offers evidence for both destiny and choice

F Fate and the paranormal: ghosts, life-after-death experiences,and astrology

Is the path of each human life set in stone long before we evencome into this world? Or are we each responsible for choosing the reality we experience? Perhaps the truth lies somewhere inbetween....

As a journalist and freelance writerof wide experience, Lamont Woodis familiar with the sometimes arbi-trary distinction between causeand effect, and the subsequentgulf between what happens, what

is experienced, what gets written, and what isunderstood. He has been freelancing for nearlythree decades, writing for publications ranging fromAmerican Heritage to trade journals in Hong Kong.He has also been a newspaper reporter, a publicist,and a welder. He lives in San Antonio, Texas.

Out of Place in Time and SpaceInventions, Beliefs, and Artistic Anomalies That Were Impossibly Ahead of Their Time

Lamont Wood

There are paintings from the Middle Ages with helicopters and UFOs. We’ve found Ancient Greek Computers and heard stories ofRoman Death Rays. The Pacific Front of World War 2 was described16 years before it started. There are many examples of items and arti-facts showing up decades and centuries before they could possibly have been invented.

The existence and documentation of these and many other thingsimpossibly ahead of their time are beyond dispute. Out of Place inTime and Space delves deeply into these impossibilities, showcasing

F Objects, beliefs, and practices from the present that appear longbefore they could have been invented in the past.

F Items and art that we haven’t even created yet turning up in the past paintings and artifacts; that we only now are able to recognize.

F Roman-era war engines that were hundreds of years ahead of their time

F UFOs, never officially documented in any time period, yet still showing up in medieval paintings.

Out of Place in Time and Space explores these anachronistic artifacts and looks for explanations. Sometimes we can understandwhere they came from, and sometimes we cannot. But, taken together, these enigmas indicate that we are surrounded by evidencethat history—and perhaps time itself—is not as straightforward as we have believed.
