This is a really thought provoking and beautiful book from so many people! To get all of these questions, contemplations, perspectives, and wisdom has been a wonderful read. The convergence of science and spirituality is fascinating, and this book provided insight from many perspectives that have me thinking about the possibilities of life, where we came from, how, of our connection, and the universe and our place in it.

This is essentially an anthology with a huge variety of perspectives from some incredibly intelligent and wise people. There's some science, philosophy, ancient wisdom, and much more. Readers are guaranteed to learn some interesting perspectives and/or be challenged at times. This wasn't as good as I had expected, partly because each essay is pretty short (thus lacks a certain amount of depth), but that brevity is also a good thing because sometimes it encapsulates all that's needed -- so a mixed bag. But overall, excellent, and likely to send readers to more of some author's work or references. Recommended for those curious about the topic in any way. 4.5 stars rounded up.

I really appreciate the ARC for review!!

A quick read for me and the title is accurate, though I'm not sure I got everything from it I should have.

On the Mystery of Being is a interesting and informative book. It is well written and inciteful. I enjoyed reading this book.

** Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with the digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest review **
Tengo que decir honestamente, que al principio pensé que este libro era sobre cuestiones ”metafísicas” y definitivamente, no era para mí lo que contenía. Si bien el libro no es mi tipo de lectura, y no sea de acuerdo a mis pensamientos en un 100 porciento, el libro aun tiene cosas que pueden ser de provecho para cualquier ser humano.
