This is the warning from Wilson about Cosmic Trigger. Cosmic Trigger deals with a process of deliberately induced brain change. This is called 'initiation' or 'vision quest' in many traditional societies and .. a dangerous variety of self-psychotherapy in modern terminology. I do not recommend it for everybody..
1) The origin of our universe occurred a finite number of years ago; 2) Its current expansion issues from a much smaller, hotter and denser state in the past; 3) Hydrogen, helium, deuterium and lithium were created from this primeval fireball; 4)The cosmic background radiation is the fireball light from this event. Only the big bang theory seems capable of explaining these 'cosmological' features. I think it will be a very long time before we find a better theory that doesn't look a lot like big bang cosmology.
