Overview

THE PRISM OF BEING How Consciousness, Science, and Experience May Be More Connected Than We ThinkBy Jason McIlrath What if consciousness isn't created by the brain-but received by it? Modern science can map neural activity with astonishing precision, yet it still can't explain why experience exists at all. Awareness, insight, creativity, and meaning remain stubbornly resistant to purely material explanations. The Prism of Being explores a different possibility: that consciousness may be non-local, shared, and filtered through individual minds like light through a prism. Written in a grounded, science-respecting voice, this book examines real studies, documented anomalies, and unresolved questions from neuroscience, biology, psychology, and information theory-without making claims of proof or drifting into mysticism. From sudden creative breakthroughs and simultaneous discoveries to collective behavior observed in animals and humans, the evidence suggests patterns that current models struggle to fully explain. At the heart of the book is a simple but unsettling idea: life may not be a hierarchy of intelligence, but a spectrum of experience. From fungi to animals to humans, each form of life could represent a different way a shared consciousness experiences reality-fractured into perspectives, not separated into individuals. The Prism of Being does not ask you to believe. It asks you to consider. For readers interested in consciousness studies, science-based spirituality, and the unanswered questions at the edge of modern knowledge, this book offers a thoughtful framework-one that honors skepticism, curiosity, and the possibility that understanding grows through experience itself.
