Andrew Bienkowski grew up in Siberia, his family exiled by the Communist regime. In a life that began with nothing, living on soup made from discarded potato peelings, he learned that true wealth and happiness come from giving, and made his way observing the true value of gratitude, forgiveness and understanding. With great humility and a smile he weaves his plain-spoken wisdom with stories of survival and relationship and the reminder that the things that really matter are available to each of us, every hour of every day. And of course, even the darkest days have their treasures to offer. ."
Spend an hour with this simple, quietly joyful, peaceful man, and you'll discover a renewed understanding of the beauty and bounty in your own life-just as it is.

What is the universe? Would it startle you to know that even the experts haven't a clue? Stephan Martin tells us that ninety-six percent of the universe is dark matter we can't see and don't understand. He sat down with leading physicists, spiritual leaders, and cultural creatives to get their insights on what we do know-and what we believe. In this riveting conversation he shares insights from every perspective-the questions that arise from the creativity of the universe itself, and the evidence that we inhabit a living, evolving world that is ever changing and interacting with our every thought. He explains, "What we're seeing is the universe really at play; there's a deep creativity and a profound sense of play, that doesn't fit into our equations: doesn't fit into our mechanical laws about what it can and cannot do. It's much more spontaneous, much more creative than that, and we're just seeing the tip of the iceberg. It's really a very profound mystery."
Stephan Martin, M.S., has taught astronomy and physics at U.S. colleges for more than twenty years, and is a renowned specialist in extragalactic astronomy and the study of dark matter. He has published articles spanning several disciplines, from observational astronomy to transpersonal psychology and indigenous shamanism. He is the author of Cosmic Conversations: Dialogues on the Nature of the Universe and the Search for Reality (New Page Books 2009).To learn more about the work of Stephan Martin go to www.CosmicConversations.org
