Act Passionately, Think Rationally: A Review of Ubiquitous Consciousness by Bill Duvendack

Ubiquitous Consciousness opens with a lesson on energy, vibration, quantum mechanics, resonation, oscillation, and metaphysics. Though it sounds like a heady beginning, its introduction is essential to the discussion, and the relationship between these concepts teaches us how we experience energy through various states. Many of these are familiar to the students of Hermeticism. Chapter Two…
