In summary, Thomas Campbell's theory, also known as the Big TOE (Theory of Everything), proposes that the fundamental nature of reality is consciousness and that all physical phenomena are derived from consciousness. It differs from other scientific theories by incorporating subjective experiences of consciousness and elements of spirituality and philosophy. The theory is primarily supported by anecdotal evidence and personal experiences, with some scientific evidence such as the double-slit experiment. The Big TOE has practical applications in the development of consciousness-based technologies and personal growth. However, it is not widely accepted by the scientific community due to a lack of empirical evidence.

Credible theories are first published in science journals, not pop science books; and esp not pop philosophy/religion books.

Note also that all theories begin as personal theories.
