Do you wonder about the way your life appears? Are you looking for some way to dramatically change your life? Have you tried many methods only to find that over time you eventually revert to old patterns? "The Architecture of Freedom" may provide the necessary insights to create permanent change. Exploring modern physics, personal experience, and spirituality, this book outlines a radically different way of understanding our lives, our universe and our being. While this book is not a quick read or proposing an easy fix, once understood, the ideas in this book will forever change your life. Whether or not we are aware of it, what the majority of us most desire is peace of mind in each and every moment. This experience becomes available to all of us when we learn how to live our lives without "resistance" so that we can then use our unique gifts to follow our most personal and joyful path. Due to our deeply held fears, we all create "resistance" to the natural and organic flow that would otherwise effortlessly move our lives. Near the root of these fears is the fear that we will one day die and then cease to exist. However, because of the way our universe is built, this fear of death is completely unfounded. "The Architecture of Freedom" explains why death, or our passing into a state of nonexistence, is impossible. Freedom is living our lives without this fear or "resistance," so that we are fully available for all the amazing possibilities that then will begin to flow forth. Learning to live this way is about learning how to live in the "present moment" or "now." When we live fearless lives in the "now," we become directly connected to a different and amazing way of being-our birthright. In this way we access the deeper parts of our being to share a type of universal awareness that is healing for each individual and for our entire planet. Imagine a universe where everything is possible and every idea is fully realized. Everything-all that we consider good or bad, saintly or evil, beautiful or ugly-already exists along with anything else that any person or being could ever dream or imagine. What if you could choose from all of these things to construct your perfect life? Amazingly, this is much closer to the true form of creation than the world that we usually imagine. All of these possibilities are happening at once and we all have the ability to choose which parts of this "everything" that we will experience. We cannot choose using our brains or even our minds; instead, we choose with the entirety of our vibrational being. It is not easy for us to understand this type of choosing because so much of our universe exists and operates in realms that we can't directly access with our minds or five senses. Even though we don't have full access to the full extent of this amazing space, it is always fully interactive with our lives-it creates everything that we do and experience. A large part of life's beauty derives from this mystery, which only exists because, in our present form, we are not yet capable of understanding the infinite nature of creation. If we could understand the full extent of creation, we would see clearly that we are all one being, that time is an illusion, that we never will die, and that everything that happens is exactly perfect for the evolution of our soul. We are not here to understand creation-that is not our purpose. We are here to gain experience by fearlessly participating in every aspect of life. This is true freedom. Understanding more about the real structure of creation can help eliminate many of our common fears; it is these fears that prevent us from living our lives in freedom. I have devoted a large part of my life to exploring the occasionally visible edges of this truth. This book describes my personal adventure and the process that brought me to this realization. It is my hope that this book might serve others as a helpful guide for this, our common journey.
About the Author: Tim Cross is a residential and light-commercial architect who has been practicing building design and construction in Austin, Texas since 1980. He is also a trained ecologist. Before turning his attention to architecture, he taught high school physics and worked in the field of environmental science. He served in the Peace Corps and then as the Environmental Advisor to the Government of Fiji in the late 1970s. However, throughout all his adventures, his primary passion has always been to learn as much as possible about this amazing experience called life. This book began as a simple letter to his two beautiful daughters, but quickly grew into something very unexpected. Though Tim is an architect, this is not a book about architecture. It is, instead, a book about personal and cultural freedom and how the actual architecture of our universe fully supports our journey towards freedom. He defines freedom as letting go of those things in our lives that block us from experiencing our birthright, which is living fully within the flow of this infinite creation that is shaped and interconnected by Love. He is at a place in his life where his only remaining desire is to allow his experience of Love to deepen. The Architecture of Freedom is his personal journal, describing what he has learned about living in this universe.
