For his upcoming 81st birthday, we would like to share with you how some members of the MBT community found Tom Campbell's My Big TOE and what it has meant to their lives.
Happy birthday, Tom!
"For years materialism made the most sense. I studied psychology at university with a focus on psychobiology and neuropsychology and later trained in applied linguistics to teach languages and help refugees integrate into society. I built a meaningful career combining psychology, teaching, and service. Intellectually I was a committed materialist and atheist. Spiritually, though, I still carried deep questions: Am I more than my body? What is the purpose of life?"
"I am a computer engineer who has always been looking for a bigger picture understanding of this reality and what is going on here. Little did I know that my understanding of computers would lead me to MBT in 2010 and the concept of simulation theory/virtual realities.
This theory opened up my mind to a much larger reality and has set me on a course of inner exploration and discovery ever since."
"It was a sunny fall day in 2015 — I was wandering around on Facebook when a video
suddenly appeared in my feed. A man with bright white hair and beard, named Tom
Campbell, was talking about reality being virtual. Now, that sounded exciting! I clicked.
And then it happened..."
"The profound impact on me makes it hard to think of a time before I got into MBT, but my guess is around 2011. I'd been making my way through things like tarot and reading about 'astral projection' up to that point, but I didn't know that what I'd been seeking was a scientific approach to the subject - not until I found it."
"My personal experience started when I was 15 years old, when I accidently stumbled onto one of Tom’s videos on YouTube. I sensed that there was something bigger behind all this, unconsciously back then…"
"Before meeting Tom Campbell, I had never tried quitting sugar, had never driven to North Carolina, Tennessee or Alabama and had never built an index, been acknowledged in nor tried writing a book. Since meeting Tom, I have done all these things and so much more."
"I cannot thank you enough for providing the opportunity to share how Tom Campbell and My Big TOE have impacted my life. I am 70 years old, and I discovered Tom and MBT around 2009 — it changed my life."
"What unfolded was astonishing. It was as though floodgates had
opened. One by one, Z mentally ticked off the truths he had long
intuited: Yes—check. Yes—check. Yes—check.
This “Santa” was giving voice to thoughts Z had only glimpsed in
shadow. And then went far beyond. In that instant, everything
shifted. There was no turning back."
"Before discovering Tom’s work, I felt completely lost. I had no idea who I truly was or what my purpose might be. I stumbled through life, went down some very dark paths, and hit rock bottom more than once.
Finding My Big TOE was a turning point. It allowed me to see myself at a deep soul level and understand my place in the larger reality. For the first time, I could glimpse the bigger picture and begin to make sense of life. Slowly, I discovered my purpose and once that happened, everything changed."

"I was on my way from a corporate review to a conference in Huntsville Alabama, and it just so happened Tom was on my plane! I expressed, not too awkwardly I hope, my sincere gratitude to him for all that he has done and continues to do.
Tom’s work has been tremendously helpful for me as I make my way through my own journey."
"How much has it meant to me that I discovered Tom’s big theory of everything? Early on, I tried to find information that could match my experiences. I read scientific articles, books, philosophy, and religious writings. Much of it could be pieced together, yet things still did not add up. Religion was not for me. Established science avoided the important aspects. What was missing?
Tom’s model of our reality explained both my significant personal experiences and the external world as it appeared to be, all within the same framework."
"I heard Tom in an interview on Red Ice Radio many years before, but then, 15 years later and after living through these phases, and as I was going through a very hard time in my life, I rediscovered MBT on YouTube and this time it was more than just an intellectual message for me."
"I was first introduced to My Big TOE back in September of 2011, and I will always remember Tom saying something like that My Big T.O.E. is his big T.O.E. and that if you can use his T.O. E. as a guide to develop your own T.O.E. all the better (PS. That is still a work in progress). "
"I came across Tom’s MBT in 2016 during some research, as I was looking into Quantum Physics experiments, and it was like the fog lifted from my eyes as I finally realized that not matter but consciousness is primary. This realization made so much sense to me, whilst unifying all objective and subjective observations/ data under this one principle as well, that an immediate ‘gut feeling’ of ‘this just has to be correct’ came over me."
"A friend sent me a YouTube video by some guy called Tom Campbell about 15 years ago. I watched it and was surprised he was a physicist as they normally poo-pooed this sort of thing but what he was saying was very similar to what I had learnt from communicators at seances. I watched more videos and slowly realised he was answering all my questions."
"Around 12 years ago, while searching YouTube for the double-slit experiment, I stumbled upon a lecture by Tom Campbell. Within minutes I recognized MBT as the framework that connected everything I had sought across science, philosophy, and spirituality.
Since then, I have read My Big TOE and watched hundreds of Tom’s lectures. MBT clarified my purpose: consciousness is fundamental, and our task is to grow by making better choices and reducing entropy through love."
"I first heard Tom speak a couple of years ago in the Expanding on Consciousness podcast, and my whole world started to spin as I experienced a minor belief-system crash! Finally, someone spoke my (scientific) language, and all my observations about life suddenly made sense."
"My first impression of Tom Campbell was indirect, coming from Donna Aveni as she and I discussed details of staging an event at the facility I managed. Her peaceful and loving countenance spoke as clearly as the words of the speaker she was proposing to us.
Later, meeting Tom in person, I was aware that I was in the presence of a master."
"I first came across Tom's work when I lived in Denmark, around 20 years ago. I had been looking for answers to big questions and was frustrated with non-scientific approaches and yet dissatisfied with current models and the general dismissal of unifying theory or metaphysical work. I was aware of a bigger picture; I had interacted with the greater system to a greater or lesser degree but had very little in the way of cohesion or useful nomenclature.
My Big TOE was like a breath of fresh air and after I ordered and read the trilogy, I was excited at the idea of a world beginning to open to such ideas, experiments and new paradigms."
"I could not believe what I was hearing—a physicist talking about out-of-body experiences and other realities. I sat there stunned, hanging on every word.
The podcast was News for the Soul, hosted by Nicole Whitney. She had always explored alternative topics, but this one—this one story—had my full attention."
"I discovered Tom’s work during one of the most pivotal — and disorienting — periods of my life. After a near-death experience and an ego-death awakening in 2005, I began having more psi-related phenomena: out-of-body experiences, distance healing events, precognitive dreams, and medical-intuitive perceptions I could not easily explain within the confines of my scientific training.
As a medical doctor trained in integrative and mind–body medicine, I had spent years trying to reconcile these experiences through the frameworks of psychology, physiology, trauma, and spirituality. But nothing fully explained the breadth of what I was living.
Finding My Big TOE changed that."
