Description
Since the dawn of consciousness, humanity has crafted false belief systems about God: anthropomorphic and patriarchal depictions of “The Light.” Today, many people reject the ancient religions, demand an end to “Daddy Deism,” and actively explore new concepts of deity that are more consistent with 21st Century minds and hearts. Thus, The Light is a contemporary examination of the social, scientific, and spiritual forces that are shifting the Godhead toward more advanced belief systems founded on genderful/genderless concepts of deity.
A chapter on the “Spectrum of Consciousness” explains the vast variety of morals and motivations expressed by humans – everything from barbarians to buddhas. A New Human is someone who has reached a “worldcentric” or “second tier” perspective and is in service to humanity. New Humans are encouraged to actively engage at this critical juncture in history and become conscious players in the “God Game.” We must help humanity surmount polarization and anchor an integrated Godhead for the upcoming paradigm shift.
In the “Gandhi vs. Hitler” chapter, The Light pierces New Age myths by tackling the difficult topic of good versus evil. The book explores the seeming perpetual polarity on the Earth Plane, global decline of democracy, loss of women’s rights, and raging Culture War – all of which now threaten to tear America apart. The author’s “Default Mode of the Universe” theory, as well as her optimism regarding the “Secret Destiny of America,” provide hope for a positive future.
New Humans are urged to reject New Age nonsense and become “Light Masters” of sound mystical traditions. The Hermetic and Gnostic paths provide sacred backdrops for analyzing gender equity, managing polarity, accessing the “God Mind,” and seeking enlightenment. In addition to sound metaphysics, a chapter on quantum physics examines the evolutionary impulse, holism, and the latest science on the collective consciousness (panpsychism). The Light also explores the current Transhuman era and ends by asking whether New Humans will be more conscious Homo sapiens, or augmented hybrid-humans living in a matrix or metaverse in a Posthuman world.

Advance Praise
“This is a terrific book, fully embracing a truly integral perspective and highly recommended.”
—Ken Wilber, author of The Integral Vision, The Spectrum of Consciousness, Integral Spirituality, The Religion of Tomorrow, and A Theory of Everything
“This beautifully illustrated and inspiring book provides a much-needed new perspective on current religious traditions, merges the divine feminine and masculine, and points the way toward a gender-balanced, equitable, and sustainable partnership world. A powerful call for a realistic and hopeful spirituality!”
—Riane Eisler, J.D., Ph.D., founder of the Center for Partnership Systems and author of The Chalice and the Blade, The Real Wealth of Nations, and Nurturing Our Humanity
“In his 1966 book (entitled The Book) Alan Watts pointed out society’s tacit conspiracy to ignore who or what we really are. As The Light suggests, the likely answer is that we are sparks of God, emanations from an infinite source of universal consciousness. We are, all of us, partners with God co-creating our universe. But to play this game we need to realize who we are. That is the great secret.”
—Bernard Haisch, Ph.D., astrophysicist and author of The God Theory and The Purpose-Guided Universe: Believing in Eisenstein, Darwin, and God
“Intriguing and fascinating ideas about consciousness, spirituality and humanity! The Light gives us a lot of things to think about, especially about the merger of science and spirituality. I share Rev. George’s hope for a holistic evolutionary trajectory and a smooth paradigm shift.”
—Andrew Newberg, M.D., author of How God Changes Your Brain, Why We Believe What We Believe, and Neurotheology: How Science Can Enlighten Us About Spirituality
“Bravo to Reverend Laura George for articulating the dawning spiritual epoch in her new book, The Light.”
—Alex Grey, artist
“Laura George does research like few I know. The result, always, is a deeper look into the subject than anything else you can find anywhere else. She stands alone in what she investigates and how. Her charts, her discoveries are awesome! Her description of the new human, what we left behind and what we are turning out to be, is the best I’ve seen. Highly recommended reading for anyone who questions Light and Truth.”
—PMH Atwater, L.H.D., researcher of near-death states and spiritual transformations, and author of The Big Book of Near-Death Experiences, Beyond the Light, Dying to Know You, Future Memory, and Children of the Fifth World
“This amazing, compelling, and brilliant book – written by a true Oracle, Visionary and Evolutionary Leader Rev. Laura M. George, J.D. (Tau Lama) – is a powerful wake-up call that offers profound insights into the self-imposed constraints holding humanity back from transitioning into a radiant and consciously evolving future. The Light: And the New Human inspires us to revitalize our connection with Source so that we can remember who we truly are: members of Team Human who can and will join together in a ‘Holomovement’ of epic proportions to recover wholeness and heal our precious world.”
—Diane Williams, founder of The Source of Synergy Foundation, recipient of the Spirit of the United Nations Award, co-initiator with Deepak Chopra of the Evolutionary Leaders Circle, and co-author of Our Moment of Choice
“The Light, the book, should be taught in every school on this planet. The result would be peace and prosperity on Earth.”
—Yuval Ron, Oscar award winning composer, recording artist, peace activist, and author of Divine Attunement: Music as a Path of Wisdom
“As we navigate these turbulent times that are critical to our future as a species, at this moment of personal and collective choice, Laura George offers us a profound guide and wayshower to empower our evolutionary potential. There is a saying that unless we know our past we cannot understand the present and Laura charts, with great compassion, insight and clarity our journey to this pivotal point through the hitherto paradigms we’ve based our perception of ourselves, the world and our place in it. Vitally and with great wisdom, she brings us to a homecoming that transcends the illusion of separation and invites us into a re-membered unity. Here and now she shows us how, as New humans, we can step into the Light of the cosmic destiny of our conscious evolution.”
—Dr Jude Currivan, cosmologist, co-founder WholeWorld-View, and author of The Cosmic Hologram and The Story of Gaia
“Since the dawn of time, the concept of God has evolved along with the evolution of humanity. Albert Einstein envisioned a modern phase of theology in which God is perceived through the heart and the mind, not as an entity but a process explained best by physics, nature and love, that fills our soul with a sense of wonder, awe and transcendence. Rev. George reflects Einstein’s vision of the future of religion and offers us an oracle in which we finally achieve the union of science and religion whereby both are strengthened, reinforced and at last reconciled. I highly recommend The Light to those who seek truth, inspiration and joy to help humanity emerge from darkness unto light.”
—Rabbi Barry Silver, Esq., Spiritual leader of Congregation L’Dor Va-Dor, Member of the Florida Legislature (1996-1998), and Who’s Who of American Law for civil rights
“The Light and the New Human presents an unabashed look at the importance of acknowledging the dark and the light in order for our souls to advance on the spectrum of consciousness, ultimately reunifying with the Godhead. The author’s epic and well-researched exploration of humanity’s massive paradigm shift from male monotheism to a spirituality based on holism is essential reading for this time of epochal change.”
—Gina Mazza, book editor, creative muse, poet, publishing consultant, journalist, and author of Everything Matters, Nothing Matters
“Laura George does an honorable and epic job of anchoring each of us in time and space, giving us a glimpse into the eternal dance of both the universal and the relative. She shows us how to tap into the sacred brilliance of this present moment, charging us with enormous power and the possibility to unleash our unique potential to be part of our cosmic emergence.”
—Joe Weston, Executive Director of the Fierce Civility Project and author of Mastering Respectful Confrontation
“I was absolutely magnetized and mesmerized by The Light. It is fascinating, deeply researched, well-written, and full of brilliant insights. Highly recommended.”
—Janet Smith Warfield, J.D., founder of Planetary Peace, Power, and Prosperity Legacy Foundation and author of Shift: Change Your Words, Change Your World
