Thomas Campbell (27 July 1777 – 15 June 1844) was a Scottish poet chiefly remembered for his sentimental poetry dealing especially with human affairs. A co-founder of the Literary Association of the Friends of Poland, he was also one of the initiators of a plan to found what became University College London. In 1799, he wrote "The Pleasures of Hope", a traditional 18th century didactic poem in heroic couplets. He also produced several stirring patriotic war songs—"Ye Mariners of England", "The Soldier's Dream", "Hohenlinden" and in 1801, "The Battle of Mad and Strange Turkish Princes".
Born on High Street, Glasgow in 1777, he was the youngest of the eleven children of Alexander Campbell (1710–1801), son of the 6th and last Laird of Kirnan, Argyll, descended from the MacIver-Campbells. His mother, Margaret (b.1736), was the daughter of Robert Campbell of Craignish and Mary, daughter of Robert Simpson, "a celebrated Royal Armourer".
In about 1737, his father went to Falmouth, Virginia as a merchant in business with his wife's brother Daniel Campbell, becoming a Tobacco Lord trading between there and Glasgow. They enjoyed a long period of prosperity until he lost his property and their old and respectable firm collapsed in consequence of the American Revolutionary War. Having personally lost nearly £20,000, Campbell's father was nearly ruined. Several of Thomas' brothers remained in Virginia, one of whom married a daughter of Patrick Henry.

Plot: Wrestling with God is the true story of Alexander Campbell, a man whose conscience came into conflict with the accepted religious precepts of his time, and the struggle and resentment he endured as a result. Campbell challenged the man-made doctrines of religious organizations to find his own form of personal faith. As the film begins, Thomas Campbell, an Irish minister, has left his home and ministry to settle in America, leaving his eldest son, Alexander to bring the rest of the family after he establishes himself in the new land. During 1808, the family was shipwrecked and forced to regroup in Glasgow, Scotland. Alexander spent the time studying at university and became disenchanted with the hypocrisy of the clerical establishment, severing himself from the church. Arriving in Eastern Pennsylvania, the family is reunited with Thomas, but Alexander dreads having to explain his act to his father. Finally forced to confront the situation, Alexander is amazed to find his father understands, having been through a similar experience with the local clerics who bicker incessantly over doctrinal minutiae. The two resolve to champion the cause of uniting all Christians into one peaceful, ecumenical body. Alexander meets and marries Margaret Brown. She becomes a strong influence, coaxing Alexander to utilize his gifts and involve himself in public debates with other groups. The resultant debates launch the movement that grows with Alexander's reputation and influence in matters both religious and political. The family suffers the loss of a child and finds Alexander in a whirlwind of public controversy over his positions. America in the earlggious thought. The Scottish Socialist, Robert Owen, later a mentor to Karl Marx, establishes experimental socialistic communities in Ohio and seeks a debate over the existence of God. Alexander accepts. Margaret is taken ill and dies suddenly, leaving Alexander with their five surviving daughters and admonishing him to always be true to the voice in his heart. In Cincinnati, before a sanctuary packed with humanity from both camps, Campbell faces Robert Owen in a debate that lasts seven days. Without a definitive resolution, Owen concedes that he is convinced at least to re-examine the source of Campbell's passion. Alexander rides home alone, weary, but heartened to move into his future. The source of Alexander Campbell's passion fired within him a heroic vision of religious liberty. The power of that passion drove him through 37 more years of tireless advocacy. Campbell became eminent in many fields an enlightened advocate of educational reform, an exponent of political reform, a champion of human liberty, a challenger of injustice and universally esteemed by the great figures of his day, friend and foe alike, as a man of wisdom, integrity, and vision. The voice in his heart rippled through the new country and beyond.

Is the meditation state just another reality frame? As Tom Campbell states scientifically, "The data stream defines the reality frame." Time is a variable you can use in this reality frame. Each reality frame has its own time. And, as Tom recently stated in a Laurie Huston interview (On Our Reality), "No one reality frame is more real than another." http://www.mybigTOE.com Tom's website http://www.mbtevents.com Tom's latest events around the world http://www.IntuitiveSoul.com Laurie Huston's website

Laurie Huston from News for the Heart is talking with physicist Tom Campbell on Purpose. We discussed the simplest ways to understand our Purpose; it is to Grow Up to evolve towards love! He offers tips and tools to help us focus on authentic Love vs fear. We discuss that Purpose isn’t this elusive Gift that we need to go to others for us understand, but that it is Who we are and not what we do. Tom has a brilliant way to simplify our world into love vs fear, however, that doesn’t mean it is easy. We discuss how our Purpose allows us to be more authentic and all the pain, struggle and fear is just a way to understand what our Soul wants us to grow towards. We just have to stop looking outside ourselves for the answers and live our life BEing authentic, caring people instead of focusi...

Mohan Lesson: Synopsis Scotland is surrounded by many small islands, with deep blue lakes (lochs) and rocky islets dotting the coastline. 'Lord Ullin's daughter' is a romantic poem about how a young Scottish Chieftain flees with the pretty daughter of another Chieftain -- a furious man who did not quite approve of the match. Poem - Lord Ullin's Daughter: A Chieftain, to the highlands bound, Cries, "Boatman, do not tarry! And I'll give thee a silver pound To row us o'er the ferry!"- "Now, who be ye, would cross Lochgyle, This dark and stormy weather?"

A poem about a battle fought at night On Linden when the sun was low, All bloodless lay the untrodden snow, And dark as winter was the flow Of Iser, rolling rapidly. But Linden saw another sight When the drum beat, at dead of night, Commanding fires of death to light The darkness of her scenery. By torch and trumpet fast arrayed Each horseman drew his battle blade, And furious every charger neighed, To join the dreadful revelry. Then shook the hills with thunder riven, Then rushed the steed to battle driven, And louder than the bolts of heaven Far flashed the red artillery. And redder yet those fires shall glow On Linden's hills of blood-stained snow, And darker yet shall be the flow Of Iser, rolling rapidly. 'Tis morn, but scarce yon lu...
In part five, Tom answers the eternal questions "What is our existence all about"?, and "How are we connected"?, concluding this workshop. This scientific view of God is but another interpretation of what Lao Tzu as a poet, and the Buddha had to say about the nature of our reality. A physicist's goal is to understand and model reality. In this workshop filmed in NYC in May 2010, Tom Campbell, author and experimental nuclear physicist, delivers the full and logical explanation of how his trilogy, My Big TOE, explains the foundations of Relativity and Quantum Mechanics as well as bridges the gap between physics and metaphysics. Tom's unique qualifications as a scientist and an explorer of the larger reality have allowed him to gather, over the last 35 years, the information and evi...

Colin Campbell, Phd, codirected a study of more than four dozen diseases and 367 items of socioeconomic, lifestyle, nutrition, and genetic information across a population of 6,500 adults in rural China, generating more that 8,000 statistically significant associations. Those groundbreaking results, along with many other research projects described in the best-selling book The China Study, support the theory that a whole-food, plant-based diet is linked to lower rates of chronic disease. More than a million people across the world have read The China Study and have been convinced by empirical evidence to adopt a whole-food, plant-based diet.

In diesem Video aus einem unserer monatlichen Fireside Chat Gespräche beantwortet Physiker und Autor Thomas Campbell eine Frage bezüglich Problemen auf dem spirituellen Weg. Er geht dabei darauf ein, dass Menschen, die versuchen sich in spiritueller Hinsicht weiterzuentwickeln dabei oft zu viel Fokus auf den nicht-physischen Bereich lenken und dadurch aus den Gleichgewicht geraten. Den Ansatz durch spirituelle Entwicklung der Angst und dem Ego der Massen zu entschweben, hält Tom für problematisch und er spricht sich in dem Video dafür aus, als spritueller Mensch nicht den Bezug zu anderen Menschen zu verlieren, nur weil diese selbst nicht an spiritueller Entwicklung interessiert sind.

In recent news, ANU (Australian National University) physicists carried out an experiment thought out by Princeton physicist John Archibald Wheeler. Tom discusses the results of this experiment, the impact it has on materialist reductionism, and the implications it has in our lives. The identity Tom has used for years, and his MBT science supports, is: R=I. Reality equals information. Tom's My Big TOE viewpoint is such that it doesn't exclude anyone, "Everyone can play this game." His science term LCS: "A derivation of an entity that performs the functions of God." "The root of all existence without the dogma, creed, and beliefs." http://www.anu.edu.au/news/all-news/experiment-confirms-quantum-theory-weirdness ANU http://www.mybigTOE.com Tom's website http://www.mbtevents.com T...
How many assumptions should a good scientific model (In this case, a big theory of everything) contain? Tom Campbell, physicist and author of My Big TOE, presents to us a brief glimpse into the logical process he used to derive his theory (Big Theory of Everything, or Grand Unified Theory) (See also: "Solving the 'Hard Problem' of Physics and Consciousness" on this channel) in this and other interviews. (The Calgary workshop, this channel, presents the entire theory in an encapsulated form) A good model or theory, particularly if it represents a TOE, should be elegant and simple. The fewer assumptions required to describe all the known facts, the more likely it is that the model represents truth. Tom's Big TOE theory contains only two assumptions. Consciousness exists. It evolves. The r...
