This book is about pleasure. It’s also about pain. Most important, it’s about how to find the delicate balance between the two, and why now more than ever finding balance is essential. We’re living in a time of unprecedented access to high-reward, high-dopamine stimuli: drugs, food, news, gambling, shopping, gaming, texting, sexting, Facebooking, Instagramming, YouTubing, tweeting....

This was a wonderful book. I didn’t want it to end. it gave me continual boosts of validation and courage through each chapter and section. I feel more poised to take on the challenges of dopamine addiction in this pleasure saturated world.
Thank you Anna

My Big TOE: Awakening, written by a nuclear physicist in the language of contemporary culture, unifies science and philosophy, physics and metaphysics, mind and matter, purpose and meaning, the normal and the paranormal. The entirety of human experience (mind, body, and spirit) including both our objective and subjective worlds is brought together under one seamless scientific understanding.

So this book is crazy dense, and focus demanding. It’s also comical and easily digestible. Written for intellects, and peons alike. I tried skimming from the beginning a few years back and realized I didn’t have the proper focus. But finally found the right timing in my life.
I’ve been slowly chipping away at it on audiobook as I put my twin sons down for their daily nap. Listening and re listening to every little section until I’ve adequately understood each concept.
I actually flipped to around chapter 25 to get into the meat and potatoes before going back to the beginning. It was helpful for me to dive in that way. There’s a slow waiting line to get to the goods, so if you must, just find a section that grabs you, and pulls you in. Then once you’re on the rollercoaster just enjoy the ride.
It has come at a time where my vast potential but dim consciousness were in need of a major organizational overhaul in my physical, digital, and mental life in order to maximize my productivity and reduce my chaotic entropy. This is merely a fractal replication of the greater patterns of evolution that AUO (absolute unbounded oneness) and all other subsets of consciousness, in all nested dimensions, naturally go thru. (or reach their demise, i.e. increase entropy) so literally as I’ve been listening to and absorbing this knowledge it’s simultaneously actualizing in my very physical matter reality. ( these concepts will be better understood to you once you’ve begun reading this book ) if at first it doesn’t click, don’t fret. I believe this knowledge must come with the proper timing. So just hold onto it and try again anytime it calls. If you’ve found this book then you’re on the right track.
