ABOUT THE BOOK
Through Not Your Eyes is a genre-defying odyssey that fuses ancient philosophy, cutting-edge science, and lyrical storytelling to awaken a deep, haunting question within every reader: Is the world we perceive truly real—or merely the most convincing illusion ever conceived?
Spanning ten immersive chapters, this philosophical epic is not a book of answers but a masterfully constructed mirror of questions that have echoed through the minds of mystics, scientists, and seekers for millennia. Are we living in a simulation? What is consciousness? Is time an arrow or a wheel? Is the self an illusion? Who, or what, is truly in control of our destinies?
Through Not Your Eyes is a provocative fusion of philosophy, science, and storytelling that dismantles certainty and dares to ask: Is reality real, or the grandest illusion ever conceived? From Plato’s cave to quantum entanglement, reincarnation to AI consciousness, this genre-bending journey unsettles, awakens, and leaves you with the only question that matters—who is the dreamer of this dream?
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Kaushal Jalan didn’t set out to write a book. He simply followed a question—a strange, lingering feeling that the world might not be what it seems. One moment, he was reading about simulation theory. The next, he found himself spiralling down a thousand rabbit holes: from ancient myths to quantum paradoxes, from philosophical thought experiments to modern-day conspiracy forums. Somewhere along the way, those questions began writing themselves—until a book emerged.
With a mind that rarely sits still (thanks in part to his ADHD), Kaushal has always been drawn to ideas that are just out of reach. He doesn’t chase answers—he chases the thrill of not knowing, of tugging at reality’s loose threads just to see what unravels. This book reflects that restless curiosity—a need to peel back the layers and ask: What if we’re wrong about everything?
When he’s not thinking too hard about existence, Kaushal does what most people his age do: plays video games, watches anime, gets distracted mid-task, and wonders whether the time is real. He’s not a philosopher or a scientist by trade—just someone who couldn’t stop wondering and decided it was worth writing down.
