The bottom line is that Consciousness wants to experience itself and can only do so in a highly restrictive, "constrained environment."

Once, having tasted a moment of reality, Consciousness begins seeking the ultimate - the experience of itself within physicality. The seeking begins-the dog chasing its tail. The self seeking that its own Self to be - Consciousness.

Reality comes crashing down!

He *wants* skeptics -- I'm starting to pick holes. Everything he says is true and OBE is totally real but as a genuine scientific theory it's too loose.

Too many undemonstrated assumptions. All reality information can be reduced to digital bits -- not demonstrated. All consciousness involves free well -- not demonstrated.

False quantifications -- how could "1,000 things learn more" if the one underlying thing is all those things? Not sufficiently explained.

Through interaction, consciousness, naturally, lowers the entropy of the universe. Which is observable to this point in time. We can theorize all we want, but, the simple fact is entropy can approach zero, if not reach it. If not, then, how is the big bang possible? Complexity can increase to a point where everything collapses in on itself and the singularity is reborn. AGain and again, and again, and again...To say there is a beginning and end is ignorance. WE DONT KNOW!

@Yoetah But, to rise from those ashes like a Phoenix is the ultimate task.

[bavwill]

and by our comparison to the larger conciousness, don't we seem to be entropic and ..ehem... eve-olving?

[bavwill]

@bavwill and by some law of physics, equal to conciousness.

[bavwill]

Does entropy evolve?

[DecentralizedByGuilt]

This is disinformation

@fourplusseven He tells the audience to "read his book for details".

@jamesnewaccount me 2. yea animals are conscious but not on the same mode as people. they dont have egos and morals, they just operate on instinct and dont make value judgements and have critical thinking but they still learn. Yea god is all of us experiencing itself so god can evolve. To forget is vital because you couldnt learn new things.

[infinitesimotel]

Good theory on why lies and deception are considered the 'work of the devil', because it prevents info transmission that stops consciousness evolving.

@fourplusseven Digital bits -- wellll kind of, but that has to be looked into more. Consciousness Free will--- Its demonstrated all the time in yourself BUT there are different levels of consciousness, again there is more to the story because tings like animals are conscious but dont operate on the same level as humans. 1000 things learning more -- it goes by something is greater than the sum of its parts from what I get, learn by interaction and that contributes to the info of the whole
