Dr. Pearson’s book, ”The Supreme Awakening: Experiences of Enlightenment Throughout Time,” offers us a glimpse into the lives of people who have recorded their experiences of higher states of consciousness, as conveyed to us through their poetry, prose, letters and biographies.
The wonderfully unique feature of this book is that it documents the experiences of higher states of consciousness by dozens of people, spanning thousands of years, across all geographic regions, and in every culture.
From Wordsworth, to William Blake, from Sri Nisargadatta Maharaj to Eugene O’Neill and Billie Jean King, Pearson provide examples to reveal that the development of higher states of consciousness is not a fanciful philosophy, a mere metaphor, or a belief system, but is a natural, and indeed vital, progression of human evolution.
As William James said, “Compared with what we ought to be, we are only half awake.”
