  • The Conscious Universe

    The Universe as whole is Infinite/Energy/Vacuum

    ( Diracs sea ) T=0K. According to Quantum theory the Vacuum gives birth to virtual/ energy particles who can change into real particles. And from these real particles were created everything in the World.

    We are logical and conscious humans. Doesnt

    it mean what the virtual/ energy particles and Vacuum also must be some kind of consciousness ?

  • @socratus1 ,

    No. One cannot derive consciousness from the physical.  The physical universe is simply data interpreted as physical by consciousness. The physical system, the dependent subset, cannot derive consciousness, the superset.

  • I prefer not to call it that -- it is an intelligent, imperfect, natural, evolving system of digital potential of which we are all a part. I simply call it the larger consciousness system. There is too much belief, ego, and emotional junk attached to the word god to make it useful in describing a natural evolving system -- besides, god in no way resembles what most people think god is. It is a bad idea to try to give a word a meaning that is different that its common usage.

  • everything is energy. this iz the matrix, anythings possible, so become the creator and not the created.

  • God

  • Mind blowing! Hoooorray to all the scientists who are coming to their senses.

  • I should be working on my thesis, its do in two days. Instead I sit here, sipping on a cocktail, contemplating my miscued beliefs on reality. Thanks buddy

  • when i got to 8:54 and read the slide, i was sorely disappointed.

    i'm interested in watching this lecture, but can no longer take it seriously.

    some of the rationalizing that's done on Campbell's behalf is pleading.

    to even echo having done "the impossible" is pretty ridiculous. it's seemingly something he takes pride in quoting someone else's thoughts on his ideas.

    i also highly doubt the academic physics community would ignore these ideas, if they were airtight by those standards.

  • @Theyallfloatdownhere true dat

  • There is soo many I will just have to break these up lol I will watch more tomorrow thanks twcjr44 for posting these. Its sad this guy isn't recognized because of the scientific fundamentalism in the fields. I don't live long enough to care about science in general due to how long it takes for some old asshole to die on the inside, we should create the alternate science.

  • @HigherPlanes Yeah "progress" that is one solid reason why I don't respect science anymore, just a bunch of airheads.

  • All paradigms are first laughed at, then ridiculed and when the physicist that discovered the paradigm dies, it is finally accepted.
