description: C. Norman Pearson explores the three great illusions all people must face and conquer before they can glimpse the Real--space, as dimension; time, as succession; and self, as separation. Along this path, we evolve spiritually toward higher reality consciousness and eventually develop divine powers, a process Pearson sees as the purpose for living that may require several lifetimes to fully realize. "How wonderful life is!" he writes. "The only limit is our puny power to see and understand."Drawing his inspiration from a combination of Eastern wisdom and Western science, Pearson explains how priceless teachings of this Ancient Wisdom tradition are consistent with many of the newest findings in science. The Eastern wisdom originally was the sole province of initiates of mystery schools and transmitted only to worthy pupils after adequate preparation. Western thinkers such as Plato, Plotinus, Simon Magus, Paracelsus, Bruno, and Blavatsky have promulgated many of its tenets. Space, Time and Self combines the wisdom of the East with the logic and scientific thinking of the West
