I Woke Up in Someone’s Dream by Nikola Nikov is an authentic and thoughtful journey into the unknown field of Consciousness. Starting from the main question, “What is Consciousness?” and from the stunning moments of creation, Nikov gradually leads us into the most fascinating aspects of an entity that science and physics have not yet fully explored. Science and physics focus on matter's mechanical and organic functions, while consciousness is regularly overlooked. The book contains many practical examples that help us better understand consciousness. It is seen not as a component of the body or the brain, but as a collective source of external energy in which the brain acts as a mere receiver, and in which living individuals are mysteriously linked to each other. The examples are extremely gripping and emotionally touching, especially when Nikov tackles controversial topics that reveal the supernatural side of consciousness.

I Woke Up in Someone’s Dream: How Consciousness Shapes Reality by Nikola Nikov is also a deeply spiritual collection of insights. Here, in fact, science, religion, and philosophy don’t clash, but work in perfect harmony to offer a vision of consciousness and its role in shaping our experiences. The author does that with courage, tact, and respect, and in language that is not overly academic, but friendly and meditative. Even though a definitive answer to the initial question is not provided, I loved Nikov's bold perspective and recommend this book as a valuable read for anyone who wishes to look at life and death without fear.
