The Heartbeat of Intelligence


Book Description

The Evolving Heart Nature's Astonishing Evolutionary Intention for Humanity The Heartbeat of Intelligence shows why we are not fulfilling our potential, as individuals and as a species. It shows how and why we stepped off the evolutionary path intended by Nature, a path which would have put us several evolutionary steps ahead of where we are now had we not strayed from it. The book shows how stepping off the path has severely jeopardized the mysterious connection between the heart and the brain, a connection which is essential for our continued evolution as a species. The author believes that we will not continue evolving or even survive as a species without that understanding. The book explains: The theory of neoteny and why this is the most crucial aspect of human evolution. Why synchronicity is the law by which human beings will live in the future. How left-brain dominance has led to nearly all of the problems we face today. Why Nature is far more profound and mysterious than science allows. Why seeing the Universe as a hologram answers so many puzzling questions. Love and compassion, passion and joy, goodness and beauty, are the birthright of every human being, built into our genes and intended by Nature to speak in every beat of our heart. The book shows us the delightful steps of joy and lightness which will not only take us several evolutionary steps forward, but will help us save our beautiful planet. Astonishingly, this could all be accomplished in less than a generation.

Magic (Translated)


Book Description

You must leaf through the pages of this book with the certainty that you will not find a panacea to your ills, but practical means to improve your chances of being happy in all domains. I do not ask you to blindly believe in what you will read, but if you are skeptical, at least take the trouble to test the indications exposed in the course of the work; I can assure you that, in a short time, you will find the solution to some problems that, for a long time, seemed insoluble. Religions, all religions, promise a happy life after death; if we have suffered on this planet we should find, as a reward, an eternal bliss; this is what has created the false idea of suffering, and some believe that it is necessary to undergo trials, illnesses, pains to evolve and ascend to Heaven. Health is a normal and balanced state, suffering or sickness represent the abnormal and unbalanced state. It is therefore necessary to be in good health. Love is a normal and balanced state, disagreement or hatred represent the abnormal and unbalanced state. It is therefore necessary to love and be loved. Wealth, which allows for the natural satisfaction of one's needs and those of others, is a normal and balanced state; poverty or simply deprivation is an abnormal and unbalanced state.
