If Nikola Tesla had his way, what a wonderful world it would be. He already gave us alternating current, radio transmitters, remote control, fluorescent lamps, radar technology, laser, not to mention the rest of his hundreds of patents. He could have given us so much more, if only he had his way. Unfortunately, it was…
My Favorite Movies about Spirituality
The Matrix More than a movie about special effects and amazing action scenes, the Matrix is also a rather accurate interpretation of reality, as many philosophers and some reputable scientists believe. Reality can be seen as an immensely more advanced version of our massively multiplayer online games, in which our souls take the roles of different…
My Weird Path to Spirituality

As the other half of her brain was still functioning, she was aware of what was happening, but only from a right brain perspective. Luckily, she survived,…
Candidate Theories of Everything
As I pursue this little hobby of searching for the ultimate theory that would describe everything in our universe, I came across two theories, which I find particularly interesting. One is a theory supported by a some of the best theoretical physicists of our time, while another is a theory that describes our reality as…
Unifying Science and Religion
In our search for the truth, our ultimate goal should be to arrive at a Theory of Everything (ToE) — a theory that would unite and explain everything, from science to religion.
