Present! - Amit Goswami (Part One) a Quantum View of God

[jamesb18c5]

What was that about the most striking evidence for downward causation....quantum signatures? And can you define that cause it sounds like gibberish.

[gtechie]

interesting

[nickharvey7]

Do we know what consciousness is scientifically?

This is an invitation to see an artist theory on the physics of light and time!

This theory is based on two postulates

1. Is that the quantum wave particle function Ψ represents the forward passage of time ∆E ∆t ≥ h/2π itself

2. Is that Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle ∆×∆p×≥h/4π that is formed by the w- function is the same uncertainty we have with any future event that we can interact with turning the possible into the actual!

[MrMatutum]

What will happen to the consciousness which is non local or universal when all human beings with or without brains and animals or life forms (for migration) were all dead(extinct)? At the center of galaxies are blackholes ready to gobble the earth the whole galaxy. Will the God of the Christians do the creating again ( a brain for vessels of consciousness) so that this quantum mumbo jumbo is feasible? I rest my case your honor.

[JavierC1972]

@MrMatutum What ever would possibly make you think that arguing away the measly god of the Christians could do away with God Itself?

[taintcheeze]

@MrMatutum even the stars share that consciousness or else they would not be. that is what Goswami is saying. and just because our bodies die does not mean that the consciousness we observe is dead. did you even listen to the guy?

[ariston72]

Anyone know where I can find more info on this telepathy experiment he mentions?

[LordViskey]

Whether its called God or called Consciousness, we all share it anyway. It should be our obligation to each other to nurture the good that connects us. Through this phenomena humanity may finally take its biggest quantum leap of biological evolution, and it would be feasible to communicate telepathically and flawlessly with one another, at the same time.

[HOW7EY]

i believe in god...our universe has design our universe has order...why and how would something that has no conscience do that..and also why do atheists get pissed off because i believe in something....you cant change what i believe in because its my beliefs and only i can change that.

[GateMessenger]

Notice he said, rediscovering this. They also find that the consciousness is non local meaning it does not need the body to exist, see NDE, near death experiences and OOBE, out of body experiences. I wish I could meet Dr. Goswami to go over Vogelsang's work where he developed AI, artificial intelligence back in 1982. This led to discovering the God consciousness through the decaying process(AM241) of random alpha waves, which the brain also emits during creativity spurts of new ideas.

[mikhaelmalisse]

1. The God he describes is irrelevant. How could it be anything but?

2. His claims of transfer of thoughts, and of near-instant healing can be taken to the James Randi Foundation, as they do still - under scientific evaluation - invoke the supernatural. He gets a $1 million prize if he can show it under testable conditions.

3. Please stop invoking quantum phenomena to meet your every claim. This man is clearly intelligent, and markedly irrational. Go watch Lawrence Krauss for real physics

[fctchk]

@mikhaelmalisse The curry god of the gaps is not to your taste then?

[munkyusm]

@mikhaelmalisse Perhaps you should try really thinking about this before you insta-dismiss it. I'm pretty much atheist, but I've never claimed to KNOW that god doesn't exist. You can't either. It does say something that every single group of people has had some sort of spiritual belief...maybe there's more to it than "they were all just ignorant and we're not". You should watch the entire video on Netflix - Quantum Activist. Super intriguing.

[taintcheeze]

@munkyusm i watched that a few months ago and have been plugging it ever since. it really is inspiring.

[litrehead]

What are the scientific experiences and anomalies that cant be explained with out top down causation? I still believe a tree makes a very loud sound when it falls in the woods and no one hears it. And the cat is either dead or alive regardless of whether we look at it or not. Our perception is not necessary for things to happen or exist. Some one please explain!

[PlanetJeroen]

@litrehead A tree does not produce a sound as it falls in woods, als long as there is no eardrum to catch the vibration, connected to an audio nervoussystem to interpret it, either biological or mechanical. It would compress air.

[munkyusm]

@litrehead I think his view is that consciousness is what perceives the insects, trees, forest, world to begin with. With all of those things being perceived, now they have consciousness as well. So, even if YOU don't observe the tree falling, nor does any "person"...consciousness was still there. I'm not claiming to understand quantum mechanics, but you have to understand the jist of it to get where he's coming from. I'm sort of atheist, but this has really made me think.

[templenature]

Time to watch Michael Shermer's "Baloney Detection Kit" again. This is Hinduism for a "new age." Interesting spirituality, perhaps, but weak and groundless pseudo-science.

[Xarumancer]

Amazing stuff; Part 3 is my favorite though. Anyhoo, Science and Religion seek answers to the same question, they are not enemies! They are 2 sides to the same coin and once we fully understand this can we begin to ask the proper questions about the universe

[deanmullen10]

if I live once then the odds of now being the time I am alive is Infinity/1 and the only resolution is eternal life

[deanmullen10]

the world only makes sense because your brain is designed to develop order with the same equivallence of the world around you and this is a law overruling law of phsycis, in Universe A 1+1 = 2 makes sense to the beings within yet in Universe B 1+2 = 2 makes sense to the being within. and thus there maybe Law of Law of physics, with each multiverse contaning its own LOLOP

[MrRex222]

has anyone watched the quantum actavist it's awsome

[Kneegrass]

@MrRex222 best documentry ive seen in a while

[akalchhe]

Jains always said God is your own soul,ie your conciousness

[islandfever]

Thought provoking - give me more!

[cybers5000]

At 10:30 talks about 2 people meditate together (could be making love) for 20 minutes; then after, their brains (minds) are connected!

[peadge01]

Dr. Goswami's ideas are as profound and challenging as Copernicus' heliocentric theory was at that time. Most people believed that the Earth was the center of the Universe and that the sun revolved around the Earth. Goswami's ideas eliminate the paradoxes that entangle Relativity and Quantum mechanics and even religion. Perhaps we need to introduce the Spirit Molecule into the equation as a means to enter the collective consciousness in the first place. Many will fall back to solipsism.

[birdofafeatherami]

Thank you

[ironassbrown]

I started watching this with the intention of disliking it, as a non-denominational being. Though as I listened to Dr. Goswami, I found that I really had no objection to his interpretation of the meaning of God. I would probably call it something else if left to my own devices, but I think there is a fundamental truth behind Dr. Goswami's cosmic view.

[exec9292]

everything is possible to this fucker lol

[Firstborn61]

I didn't quite get how he arrives at objective data in support of biological creativity in the evolutionary process? Is the sudden success of a spurious mutation an act of creativity?

Human creativity is real and very cool. As musician Neal Young would say you don't really own your best works they just flow through you!

[mssharpie]

non locality is likely possible if the universe is a hologram.and it likely is.

[Firstborn61]

@mssharpie : Non-locality has been proven long ago. Don't know that the Universe is a hologram though.

[oneleggedspider]

This is facinating.

[arenms]

ALLAH HUAKBAR

[bvgatti]

in my opinion i think ,the conscious mind of god is manifesting in matter telepathically without any electron command or unknown energy like the act of realizing,once u realize something ur unconscious mind automatically create an illusion or image of what should be manifested ona command to act and react as a thought or move or energy.

[mrgreg23]

Thank you for posting this interview!

[bossplayer1d]

thank you

[MrSigma]

We need a proper debate between Wineberg and Goswami now or perhaps between Dawkins and Goswami.

May the best horse win !

[dailydols]

@MrSigma I think the picture of God that Dawkins is against is not compatible with the idea that Goswami presents, so it will not be like the typical discussions with a muslim or a christian.

[TheDigimak]

@MrSigma ...why? Dawkins dosent know the difference between his ass and a hole in the ground.

[punaikaiki]

I read two books of this new Einstein!

[smilingdata]

This is what I call practical knowledge.

Thanks for posting !

[farzero]

dude I'm officially picking up a book on this tomorrow. This is amazing.

[8shermination7]

Dr Goswami is amazing, I'm so envious that you actually got to have this discussion with him. I've read a few of his books, his reasoning is quite moving. He also completely sold me on reincarnation lol.

[gregrutz]

downward causation is none local....OH.

now I get it!

[scopein79]

The point about transfert of potential from one brain to another is very interseting... if this is real. The point about creativity is far less convincing.

[pkunzipstardotstar]

Makes that dupe Richard Hawkins and all his dupe readers look like dupes.
