Exploring the evolution of consciousness, Bucke's magnum opus presents a theory that categorizes human development into three stages: animal consciousness, self-consciousness, and cosmic consciousness. He draws on his personal experiences and those of notable figures like Whitman, Buddha, and Jesus, alongside lesser-known individuals. Bucke argues that this progression reflects a historical trend towards less fearful religious beliefs and theologies. This seminal work combines philosophy, psychology, and spirituality, marking a significant contribution to understanding human consciousness.
