Nuclear Physicist | Consciousness Researcher | Author, My Big TOE

About

Dr. Thomas Campbell spent his career as a nuclear physicist working for NASA and the US Army, but the most significant work of his life happened outside the lab — in altered states of consciousness, alongside Monroe Institute co-founder Robert Monroe. Campbell is the author of My Big TOE (Theory of Everything), a three-volume framework that proposes consciousness — not matter — is the fundamental substrate of reality, and that our physical universe is best understood as a digital simulation running inside a larger consciousness system. His model integrates quantum mechanics, relativity, evolution, and paranormal phenomena into a single coherent framework that is simultaneously scientific and metaphysical. He argues that the anomalies researchers encounter at CITD — UAP, telepathy, near-death experiences, remote viewing — all make perfect sense within a consciousness-based model of reality. Campbell doesn't just theorize: he has been out-of-body for decades and continues to teach others how to explore non-physical reality directly.

Are We Living in a Virtual Reality? — An Exploration of Consciousness and the Nature of Existence

Dr. Campbell presents the core thesis of his Big TOE framework: that consciousness is the foundation of reality, physical existence is a virtual experience within it, and that this model resolves the deepest paradoxes in physics and human experience.

Exploring Consciousness and the Paranormal: A Practical Workshop in the Nature of Reality

A hands-on workshop applying Campbell's consciousness model to practical exploration — exercises designed to help participants directly experience the non-physical aspects of reality, not just theorize about them.

Glitches in the Matrix: Questioning the Nature of Reality

Explore one of the most profound questions of our time: what is reality? What if artificial intelligence is not just a tool, but a revealing mirror of the deeper foundation of existence? Could it be that we are living in a simulation—and if so, who or what is behind the code? Could the synchronicity phenomenon be potential “glitches” or meaningful patterns within the simulation? There are many forms of Simulation Theory, from philosophical frameworks to scientific perspectives. Which theory could explain how consciousness operates in these conditions? Join us as we challenge our perception and venture into the realm of base reality.
