Publisher's Description

How can we transcend our tribal, philosophical, and religious differences? Is it possible to develop a global consciousness to resolve the peril to our biosphere and other human-made existential crises? Become Conscious of Wholeness: Humanity's Only Future explores how connecting human consciousness with Universal Consciousness will give individuals and societies a sense of being complete, not fragmented. Accessing Universal Consciousness, the fundamental wisdom, intelligence, and love in the Universe, will align their identity and purpose and free them from limiting beliefs and fears. Universal Consciousness is the organizing, unifying force, beyond space and time, filled with the creative potential from which our diverse philosophies, religions, and primordial traditions emerged. When Consciousness is understood from multiple scientific, spiritual, psychological, and mystical perspectives, what is of ultimate value becomes clear--our relationships with each other and the Earth, our essential Wholeness. The reader will explore various portals to Universal Consciousness, drawing upon their own mystical and spiritual experience to develop a more holistic Self. Specific action steps are also presented to reframe religion, reimagine education and mental wellbeing, and reform the business organizations, government agencies, and divisive politics that perpetuate a fragmented view of reality.

Foreword

(wrote the foreword)

Ilia Delio

“This book is both timely and helpful . . . . Olson offers a deeply personal, albeit well-researched, perspective integrating consciousness and spirituality in the concept of existence’s ongoing developmental manifestation of a deeper underlying wholeness. He offers a compelling argument that such a holistic shift in human perspective will . . . help ensure our survival and ongoing evolution in consciousness as a species. This commendable effort is to be welcomed with gratitude.”

Claudius van Wyk

“We simply must find a way forward beyond outdated and provincial religious constructs . . . . Yet, the human spirit still cries out for a way to connect with something greater than the self! Olson’s inspired portrayal of consciousness provides a cutting-edge approach to spiritual meaning and fulfillment in our increasingly post-religious world. Further, the groundbreaking applications he describes have the power to spur a very much needed societal transformation.”

Margaret Placentra Johnston

“What I loved most about this book is how accessible it is. There is a simplicity and an honesty and a true humanity coming through the author that makes reading it a warm and wholesome, very pleasant, and heart-opening experience. . . . The author manifests in his writings not just the concepts but the inner feeling tone of exactly what the wholeness is that he is talking about.”

Shoshana Cooper

“I am ever thankful for Become Conscious of Wholeness and see it as an invaluable resource for our world today! . . . The wholeness that Ed speaks about brings us face to face with our true self beyond senses, mind, and intellect. Ed’s book breaks down these complex concepts of science and spirituality with candor and grace and propels them into mainstream reality.”

Joanne Wohlmuth

“Become Conscious of Wholeness deserves your full attention. Well-researched and clearly thought-out, it argues that the experience and personal integration of universal consciousness is the only real solution to humanity’s rapidly accelerating existential climate crisis. . . . Imbibe deeply from this book. Let it change you and the world.”

John Robinson

“Olson has summarized well that the only future open for humans is to find a common basis in consciousness or conscious spirit of which we are all a part . . . . I hope the book reaches many people. We humans are undergoing a tremendous transition, and people need to be reminded of who they really are and their connection to the Source. Only this way can we all do what we have come here to do!”

Tina Lindhard

“Edwin Olson is a voice of clarity and authenticity in this current chaotic moment in human history. His book is an invitation to reimagine how humanity might experience itself in loving connection with its Source. . . . Olson’s gentle scholarship weaves quantum science, theology, mysticism, and depth psychology into a new story, one in which the divine and humanity’s place in the cosmos are exquisitely reconsidered. . . . This is a book for our time.”
