    About this ebook

    I could be anyone you know. I was born and raised in the United States of America.
    I have lived a complicated but simple life. I've entertained many ideas, on a variety of
    subjects relating to everyday life. In these books, I have touched on several subjects.
    Sharing ideas and opinions with you. To make reading easier, I have divided topics by
    chapter. Perhaps you will find some of the things I have written helpful to you
    personally. Hopefully, these books will get you thinking about all the possibilities
    for making this a better world for all of us.

    The Professor

    Hello, to all my spiritual brothers and sisters.I've been an electrician by trade up until about ten years ago when I attempted a career change. The book live & learn is what I wrote at that time. I realized it was an attempt to answer a letter from the State Department of the United States government that I received after writing the White House over my concerns about our relations with North Korea and the possibility of another world war.In the letter from the State department it was explained to me the situation with North Korea in detail. Seemed to me they were out of ideas and searching for new ones. It's occurred to me and I assume many others, with the creation of the atom bomb war is no longer a viable solution to anything. To rise above the barbaric practice of war I've concluded, it will take a change within each and every one of us.Good luck all.

      Chapter 1

      Religion

      Religion is an extremely complicated subject with many different organizations and philosophies. Most people usually turn to religion to answer basic questions such as:

      Who are we?

      What created us?

      Why are we here?

      What is our purpose?

      I think religions attempt to answer these questions, but who can say which one is accurate, or if any of them are correct. The truth is we simply don’t know. Not knowing may frighten some of you, but I am convinced the answers lie deep within us and our universe.

      I think most people try not to think deeply about these questions until life forces them to search for answers. For example, as death draws near, faith can be their strength to leave this planet peacefully and help their loved ones cope with the loss. Unfortunately, many people have a difficult time with the concept of faith. We are intelligent beings and some things such as believing something without proof is unacceptable. Some things have proven to be wrong over the years and some people have proven themselves not to be trustworthy.

      In my opinion, religion is an extremely important part of our lives. It is the foundation of civilization itself. The problem lies in the multitude of beliefs encompassed in the dogma of different religions. No religion can give an honest, proven answer to any of the questions I mentioned earlier. Instead, religions focus on faith and belief in God as a means to be heard and respected. In other words, religion is believing and trusting in something you can’t see, hear, smell, taste or touch with no reasonable proof.

      Most religions were created hundreds of years ago when people’s thinking capabilities weren’t as developed as they are today and knowledge was limited. Most people couldn’t read or write and didn’t have access to the many communication tools available to us today. They followed the laws of their religious leaders, who provided the foundation for living together in community and harmony. Manners, morals and helping others were dictated, which continues to this day. The programming of a human mind was a much simpler process when people had limited knowledge. There was less information to analyze and life was less complicated.

      Phrases and sayings also taught people how to live. Some of them have lasted and continue to be quoted today. A famous one is the Golden Rule which tells us to treat others as we would have them treat us. Not as they treat you, but as you would like to be treated yourself. Sometimes you are the teacher. Ask yourself, what am I teaching others and why?

      Today’s religions focus on our Creator, most commonly referred to as God. But who or what is God? I’d like you to think about this theory. God is pure energy. It created us, our souls, from itself. We were created with no knowledge except awareness of ourselves. You are your soul, you are simply using the body God has given you. That would explain who we are, but what about the universe, the planet, our bodies, the plants and animals, etc.? Where did they come from? What are they?

      Perhaps our Creator could manifest itself in whatever form it willed. We do know that energy can never be destroyed. It simply changes form. Take wood, for example. You burn it and it changes to flame, light, heat and smoke with some ash remaining. Now the result is the heat which is absorbed by the cold, the light which is absorbed by the darkness, and the smoke which is absorbed by the air. The point is that you started with one thing – wood.

      What if the entire universe started with our Creator who I have theorized is pure energy. That explains where the universe came from and everything contained in it, as well as the planets, plants, animals, and even our bodies. Everything is simply a manifestation of our Creator.

      Scientists have discovered the smallest particles known to man, (physics.) Particles have been proven to be the basic constituents of matter. These particles are found in protons, neutrons and electrons which are the atom. Atoms join to form molecules. Molecules join to form elements and combinations of elements form everything you see, hear, smell, taste and touch.

      This deconstruction of matter I believe will ultimately lead us into other dimensions and inevitably to our Creator in It's true form. Pure energy, with absolutely no particles within but the
