  • Einstein’s Abandoned Otherworld

    …In the process, the dark cold terrain of the depth cosmology beyond zero-point energy and the warm enlightened vast of depth psychology has been systematized. The organogram of the activities between zero-point energy and conscious “will” has been constructed. The door is let open for deep physics of dark energy, information, and life.
