 “We now live not so much in a cosmos as in a cosmogenesis;

that is, a universe ever coming into being through an irreversible sequence of transformations moving, in the larger arc of its development, from a lesser to a great order of complexity and from a lesser to greater consciousness.” 

— Thomas Berry

 

What’s calling from the future? 

Though we can’t predict the future’s form, we know it will be more astounding than what has already emerged. And it is calling to us. It has always been this way. In the first instants of the universe’s existence, the unborn stars were calling to the protons and electrons through gravitational attraction.

— Brian Swimme

 

 Fascination is how the future speaks

The unborn future calls to us in our experience of fascination. Fascination is how the future speaks. Awakening to, and pursuing, our deepest fascinations is to participate in the joyful difficulty of creating the future.

— Brian Swimme

Science, Spirituality and Emerging Noospheric Consciousness

The understanding that the universe has been expanding since its fiery beginning 14 billion years ago and has developed into stars, galaxies, life, and human consciousness is one of the most significant in human history. It is taught throughout the world and has become our common creation story for nearly every culture. In terms of the universe’s development, we humans are not only economic, religious, or political beings. At the most fundamental level, we are cosmological beings.

Cosmogenesis is one of the greatest discoveries in human history.

 

It continues to have a profound impact on humanity. And yet most science books do not explore the effects it has had on our individual minds. In Cosmogenesis, Brian Thomas Swimme narrates the same cosmological events that we agree are fact but offers a feature unlike all other writings on this topic. He tells the story of the universe while simultaneously telling the story of the storyteller. Swimme describes how the impact of this new story deconstructed his mind then reassembled it, offering us a glimpse into how cosmogenesis has transformed our understanding of both the universe and the evolution of human consciousness itself.
