- More about Shape of the Soul: What Mystical Experience Tells Us about Ourselves and Reality
Paul Marshall's exploration of the deeper self, experienced in mystical and near-death states, reveals a spherical form that holds the universe within. Drawing on personal experiences and a wealth of religious, philosophical, and scientific ideas, he proposes that the mind is more fundamental than matter and that the basic units of nature are perceptual beings. The Shape of the Soul offers a comprehensive vision of the self and the universe, addressing the mind–body problem, the origin of the world, evolution, reincarnation, suffering, and the nature of God.

Paul Marshall's journey into the realm of dreams was a transformative experience that opened up unsuspected depths of his mind and hinted at a deeper self that holds the universe within. In his book "The Shape of the Soul," Marshall, a mysticism scholar, explores this deeper self, which is sometimes experienced in mystical and near-death states as spherical in form. Drawing inspiration from philosophers Plotinus and Leibniz, Marshall believes that the mind is more fundamental than matter and that the basic units of nature are perceptual beings. He sees us as beings on a long evolutionary journey of soul-making, striving for fulfillment.
The Shape of the Soul brings together mysticism, philosophy, biology, and even physics to offer a deeply integrated vision of the self and the universe. Marshall addresses the mind-body problem, the origin of the world, evolution, reincarnation, suffering, and the nature of God. He delivers a profound intellectual classic that will surely prove to be a lasting contribution to the field.
Through his exploration of the deeper self, Marshall invites us to embrace a more expansive perspective on our existence and to explore the mysteries of the universe. His book offers a roadmap for those seeking a deeper understanding of the human experience and a greater connection to the divine.
