Tim Freke’s innovative ‘podbook’ combines the intellectual clarity of a book with the personal connection of a podcast. It is the culmination of a lifetime spent intensely exploring what it means to be alive, with genuinely groundbreaking ideas in every chapter. Also available as video on Youtube.
There is a vast loving intelligence that is traditionally called 'God' but which we now need to understanding in a radically new evolutionary way. God is wounded just as we are. Coming into communion with God redeems the suffering of this bittersweet world. This is more than just an experience of transcendental bliss, it is a poignant experience of profound compassion.

CH 36 The Evolution of Love, Beauty and Bliss
In the spiritually awakened state people often report an experience of intense love, beauty and bliss. In this chapter I explore how all three have evolved from a biological root, into a more emergent soul-level experience before taking on a sublime quality when we awaken to the divine.
