Fascinating email from a correspondent published under the heading The Path of Illusion and Self-Realisation: A Real-Life Experience. It concerns his involvement with a Vedanta School for many years, and how the discussion of the 'Illusion versus Experience Models' in the final chapter of The Big Book of the Soul has finally helped him to see through the pitfalls of the former. May his experience reach out and help others who have followed the same path but perhaps felt increasingly uneasy with it.

Link to Thomas Campbell's Big Theory of Everything website (downloading his London lecture slides is recommended); this is a fascinating attempt to integrate science, spirituality and philosophy, and is highly consistent with Rational Spirituality in terms of the Experience Model and the holographic soul. (My thanks to correspondent Richard Storey for bringing this work to my attention.)
