Why the Virtual Reality Model Explains Strange Phenomena

Deeper Into My Big TOE with Tom Campbell

Tom Campbell, a physicist, is author of the three volume set, My Big TOE, describing a meta-theory that offers an account of the paranormal, as well as other scientific mysteries. He is also the founder of the Center for Unification of Science and Consciousness. His websites are https://www.my-big-toe.com/ and https://cusac.org

Tom Campbell expands upon his theory My Big TOE (Theory of Everything), explaining reality as a vast information system in which consciousness is the fundamental source. He discusses the roles of intuition, the subconscious, and evolution in lowering entropy—ultimately connecting love with the growth of awareness. Campbell explores how this model unites physics, spirituality, and human experience into a coherent understanding of reality itself.
