Review
With creative exuberance and analytic precision.... a soaring tribute to the intellectual and spiritual heights a human being can reach by stretching to take in the whole 14-billion year trajectory of the cosmos. --What is Enlightenment?
[A]ttempts nothing less than to reenvision the entire story of creation, both scientifically and spiritually, and audaciously and stunningly presents... what a new cosmic narrative could be. --EnlighteNext magazine
[An] amazing journey through the evolution of the cosmos.... This is 21st-century spirituality.... in which science and spirit are not in conflict. This book has the power to deepen and change one's view of the inner journey. --American Vedantist
“It is as if this sly author infiltrated the motherboard of God’s computer and, with ecstatic voyeuristic glee, gazed upon the master plan for creation. This work is a daring, daunting, juggling act of so many disciplines that it should be a lofty sequel to DaVinci’s Code. The footnotes alone are worth the read….The context is extraordinary. There is union after union of eastern and western thought in terms of cosmology, religion, philosophy, psychoanalysis, biology, and lots more.” —James S. Grotstein, Professor of Psychiatry, UCLA School of Medicine, author of Who is the Dreamer Who Dreams the Dream?
“A stimulating, literate, and highly enjoyable investigation of the most important philosophic issue of our time: how the life of the mind relates to the life of the universe.” —Richard Smoley, author of Inner Christianity: A Guide to the Esoteric Tradition and former editor of Gnosis

Product Description
One Cosmos under God is one of those rare books that consistently jolts us out of the decrepit beliefs that structure our understanding of ourselves and the world.... Deeply influenced by the great Indian sage and consciousness explorer Sri Aurobindo, Godwin has clearly engaged in his own spiritual atom-splitting to have produced such a remarkable integration of science, psychology, and spirit. One Cosmos under God is a thrilling contribution to the emerging canon of evolutionary thought--one that leaves us eager to embark on the next journey with this daring cosmic dharmanaut.
