Dennett’s book “Consciousness Explained” gets past the religio-spiritual gobbledy speak and presents a great rational description of consciousness.

It appears to me Chopra is more interested in selling spiritual snake oil than actually shining some light on the topic of consciousness.

If Mandela pans the postings, I’ll reconsider.

We are all one, and that includes The Netherlands. Let’s work together because we are.

Live long and prosper!

You are entitled to your own subjective view of the Netherlands.

In the part where I live and the people I encounter are totally not what you describe.

But every one lives in his/her own subjective reality.

I am grateful to the Universe for all the insights I have received in my life and for guiding me on my path forward.

And for the creativity that goes with it.

With gratitude

Nothing particularly noumenal about that!

If the Universe is aware of your presence, why did it dump you off in the Netherlands? 🙂

I create this myself, making my dreams come true, first in a 3D virtual world, later on this emerges by itself in the daily world am living in.

I guess they call this self-realization.

I am also able to heal myself from dis-eases in this way by just believing in myself and my healing power.

NASA has always been about the money.

I’m more interested in the woman who can ask a yogi to come back with her to Boston, and the response from the yogi, “Madame, I am Boston.”

Having said that, how can we assume we would find ourselves in a new earth? It’s quite possible one could find themselves living once more in this earth, circa 1839.

Knowing is overrated.

This was a (quantum) leap in human consciousness.

Who am I suddenly gained a new perspective.

Exactly who or what I am lies in the very beginning of the Universe.

Why do you think Nasa is exploring this so deeply?

We will have to leave this earth rather sooner than later. Not because we have made a mess of it but because this is in our evolution.

A new earth is waiting for human species to evolve further……….

Who, or what am I is the question which will never be answered. What mortal can know? Who has dissected death to expose its true essence? Is death the beginning or the end?

Some questions just have to be lived with.

What will change when we have a consensus ‘answer’? Maybe the Nature of Reality is to be a Question in a Conscious Mind. If so, the next question might be: what is the nature of an unquestioning mind?

In my humble opinion (not a scientist, not a philosoper, not a religious person) there is:

Intuitive reality

It takes me on the evolutionary wings of imagination to (re)create the future world, first in 3D Virtual Reality and later my vision comes true in this so-called “Reality” where we seem to live in.

This can of course be expressed in mathematics, biology and physics.

Am using a computer as a creative instrument that can make all this visible in a new learning environment:
3D virtual reality.

This is the future and the whole world already anticipates on this with new apparatus that are becoming available.

In 3D virtual reality we will be able to learn how to “fly” through our environment while at the same time learning to keep ourselves balanced.

In the end this will enable us to really discover new ways to explore our Universe.

Only a vision of a housewife with an extraordinary hobby:

3D virtual reality

🙂

In this age it is important to find new words for science, philosophy and religion more in the line of
what has always been our goal:

discovering, learning, describing.

The new 3D multimedia will give us a whole new vision on this.
