The book "The Game of Consciousness" by Imad Sami Salman blends philosophy and spirituality through a powerful story about a university professor, a physicist, who attempts suicide. However, after pulling the trigger, instead of hearing the sound of the bullet aimed at his head, he hears another voice calling him. This voice turns out to be the voice of his "Consciousness." The entire story revolves around a deep dialogue between the Professor and His Consciousness, through which many philosophical questions about existence and reality are revealed, allowing us to understand consciousness from its own perspective rather than how we perceive it.
In the dialogue between the professor and his consciousness, the book explores the concept of "Reality" and whether everything we experience in life is just an “Illusion.”
The book "The Game of Consciousness" delves into philosophical and scientific concepts to uncover the relationship between REALITY and ILLUSION. It questions whether what we consider to be “Real” is truly so, or whether there is a "Mental Conspiracy" in which our senses, limited perception, and mental programming collaborate to present what we perceive as “Reality.”
The book draws on Quantum Physics Philosophy to explain the nature of "reality," exploring scientific theories related to existence and non-existence. It presents the idea that reality is not a fixed Reality but rather dynamic and dependent on the individual's consciousness, or the "observer." The book suggests that reality might consist of different possibilities that emerge depending on how we observe the world, offering a new dimension to our understanding of EXISTENCE.
Imad Sami Salman also tackles the concept of "Existence and Non-Existence" and whether suicide or death truly represents the end of existence or merely a transition to another state of consciousness. He proposes that consciousness is not solely tied to physical existence but extends to deeper levels that may be more real than material life. The book challenges traditional ideas about death, suggesting that death could be just a change in the form of existence rather than its end.
Ultimately, the dialogue between the professor, Dr. Nader, and his Consciousness is a profound inner journey to understand the self and its meaning. Through this conversation, the professor re-discovers himself, guided by his consciousness as a mentor. This consciousness helps Dr. Nader find answers to life's existential questions and leads him to a deeper understanding of life's purpose.
