A Universe Larger Than Imagined

In this modern era, personal and scientific revelations describe a world different than the one we experience with our five senses. These descriptions of a reality outside of everyday time and space have momentous implications for lifes ultimate questions. Epiphanies: Where Science and Miracles Meet shares stories of true revelations that allow us to see the potential in our lives. To have an epiphany is to have sudden insight into the reality or essential meaning of something. In this intimate, lyrical integration of psychology and spirituality, Dr. Jauregui shares the stories of nine clients from her psychotherapy practice and casts light on those types of moments that just come, bringing surprise, comfort, and joy along with them. Epiphanies is a sparkling conversation that explores these life changing surprises and our own. A revelation is usually brought on by some simple or commonplace experience. Suddenly, something big is revealed by something little, something easily missed. And it unfolds from theresometimes as a flash, sometimes in exquisite slow motionout of conventional time and space and language. Look at this, you whisper as you see something about the universe youve never seen before. And look at this, you whisper too, seeing yourself seeing it. The universe has become bigger than it was a minute ago, and so are you. Once the moment has passed, the epiphany is difficult to describe. The transcendent experience that seems truer than anything has ever seemed will not be believed by this world, still in the thrall of a materialistic worldview that dates back to Newton. Yet even now, science is encountering astonishing new realms of its own, surprises that beg us to reinstate all our stories and include them in all human explorations. Epiphanies seeks to build bridges between seeming unlike worlds and demonstrates that miracles are not miracles at allthey are only moments when primal laws of nature unfold in transcendent human experience.
