The Cosmology of Not & The Landscape of Being describes three overlapping evolutions - that of the universe, humanity, and the Self. The book begins with the very basis for reality (which is nothing at all), then explores the Big Bang of the universe and correlates the subsequent expansion of the universe and the evolution of humanity with the evolution of the Self. The Self, then rises through stages of development as Awareness, Consciousness, Authorization for Being, Good & Evil, and other principles are explored in relationship to the search for Self throughout our everyday lives, which is the symbolically, the Landscape of Being.

The Philosophy of Not provides a deep-rooted description of the underlying infrastructure for all of existence. The existence of Not, once fully understood, mandates the existence of Life. From the axiom of Life, we then move on to the spirit-consciousness - your awareness of your own awareness. The ideology of Authorism then builds on that base and gives us a new way of looking at the world. Through authoring your own life and securing your own self-authorization instead of seeking external authorization, you can build an unshakeable foundation and structure of belief. This foundation and structure of belief can then be used as a touchstone in the chaos of life in the modern economically driven technological society.
