Had me Swimming in one epiphanny after another !,
By A Customer
This review is from: Canticle to the Cosmos (Audio Cassette)
Fundamental to understanding... Everything. Dr Swimm uses very effective & evocative metaphors to help the listener envision & understand the origins of everything. The Primal fireball of universal creation comes alive & is now illuminated with a light that makes all previous understandings seem dim by contrast. A must for any mystic who seeks a more physics-founded approach, or any scientist who desires to peek into the numinous sentience of the universe itself.

Excellent, inexpensive way to be introduced to the "hidden heart" of the cosmos,

This review is from: Canticle to the Cosmos (Audio Cassette)
Canticle to the Cosmos was originally a VHS tape set. I own a newer version of it on DVD and I enjoy it very much. However, I also own the audio tape set and I recommend it highly because it captures the passion of this man and lays out a vision of the cosmos that honors mystery, wonder, the improbability of it all and most important the hidden heart that seem to be behind it. This is not something that can be measured with instruments, but it can be felt into and intuited. Although Brian has written a good book, THE HIDDEN HEART OF THE COSMOS, it doesn't capture his presence in the way the audio tapes too. While I enjoy my videos they basically amount to taped lectures. You aren't missing much by saving money and getting just the audio tapes. If you want to know more about Brian Swimme I suggest visiting his website and reading my reveiw of the book referenced above. These tapes cover a lot of the same information except in much greater detail.

Pure Bliss,
This review is from: Canticle to the Cosmos (Audio Cassette)
Brian Swimme takes you on a cosmic journey into the universe, and then, he reminds us that we are that universe. He expands our view of the world and the world within us until the two become one resonating as bliss expressed in every word. -- Samuel Oliver, author of, WHAT THE DYING TEACH US: LESSONS ON LIVING.
