About the Author

Jonathan Maram is a retired physicist and engineer turned full-time author. After decades spent building simulations and systems for aerospace and sensor design, he now writes about something even more elusive: reality itself.

He is the author of Mysticism Demystified, a deep but accessible exploration of itness, coherence, and structural reality—and of Realizations of Reality, a companion project developing the same ideas through recursive simulation and formal modeling.

He lives in Colorado, still experimenting, still thinking recursively.

About the Work

Mysticism Demystified isn’t a book of answers—it’s a framework for asking better questions. It explores what makes something real, how structure becomes self-sustaining, and why our deepest intuitions about meaning might be more scientific than they seem.

The companion project, Realizations of Reality, builds these ideas into a simulation model—tracing how itness, coherence, and preference might emerge from nothing but structure itself.
