Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof.

I invite you to watch the video I just linked Smiley

Stopped when they showed the usual false claim of the Fibonacci spiral in a nautilus shell which is in fact a logarithmic spiral.
Of course it's not pure coincidence that the great pyramid has certain numbers in them, they appear as part of the architectural process, which the video also demonstrated. That does not mean they put those numbers in there on purpose, but rather they happened to discover them by the task of designing them.

Yes, it might be the other way around indeed, but looking at the level of technology used to construct the pyramids it is unlikely that civilization that built them only discovered those numbers in the process of construction. It is much more likely that numbers were encoded into the shape of the pyramid, not just for the coolness of it, but because the shape with such characteristics would have certain vibrational properties and could be used as some sort of resonance device. Also placing the pyramids at certain locations on Earth hints towards that idea, as the Earth itself could be considered a larger resonance device.

There is an amateur research in present time into what is called a space-time antenna designed to tap into a field energy. You can google it and see that it consists of two self penetrating cones and there are some preliminary results showing some anomalies with certain geometric configurations and frequencies. So maybe in the same way, the shape of the pyramid was crucial for the purposes it was built.

Pyramids are much more mysterious than what meets the eye.
If you look at how nature's core numbers like Pi and Phi are encoded into it,
you would hardly think that someone would put so much effort into something that would be just a lightning rod.

When thinking about consciousness, mobodick, you should first and foremost think about yourself, because that's the only evidence of consciousness that you have. There is no objective proof that other "beings" or "objects" or anything that you come across has consciousness. They might all be very good at pretending to be conscious, but you will never know for sure if they really are conscious.
(assuming you are talkng about humans, not chatterbots or something Wink )

Yes, but i apply occams razor here.
If i have to choose between a mathematically coherent universe with autonomous entities called humans and seing everything as an elaborate set-up then the coherent universe option wins without question.

The universe would just be very very silly if i was the only one with a conciousness and the rest pretended they did.
On a similar note, the chance that we ALL are a simulation of sorts is much much greater Smiley
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis
This is the only path i'm willing to think along when it comes to considernig conciousness as not generated by our brain.


I mostly agree with what you said here, except a few things.

Firstly, mathematically coherent Universe and "an elaborate set-up" are not two different things, mathematics is a result of a conscious process and it is very elaborate.

Second thing that bothered me when I was thinking about mathematically coherent Universe with autonomous human beings is how I would end up there without me existing somewhere already in the first place. You see, I don't have a problem imagining such a Universe, but the chances of me emerging there would be around 0. It will simply be filled with other human beings (whether conscious or not, I wouldn't know) and there would be no reason, no recipe for that Universe to create me. Me showing up in such a Universe would be an improbable singularity happening against all odds and laws of physics.

So if I already exist (and I know I do) then that Universe would be a secondary construct in relation to me. That Universe would be contained inside me and not the other way around. That what the idea of primacy of consciousness is. You know about your own existence with higher certainty than you know about Universe's existence, wouldn't you agree? It simply can't be the other way around.

I think this video might be of interest to you:
"The Holographic Universe (Part One)"
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMBt_yfGKpU

EDIT: edited some paragraphs above for clarity.


So ask yourself, how did you come into this picture of completely unintentional, neutral and indifferent Universe?
Think of the point in time 10 years before your birth. Are "you" already in the plans of the Universe? Does it know that you are going to be born? Does it know what parents you are going to have? Does it care?


Why are you assigning human stuff to the concept of the universe?
Why would you assume the universe is capable of planning?
What do you mean by the universe 'knowing' i'm going to be born?
In what way have you ever seen the universe 'knowing' anything, more less what parents i'm going to have?

Let me ask you this.
Does a rock know it's shape?
Or is it simply the shape?

The universe as we know it is at least a four dimentional object, propably more.
What we normally see around us is called spacetime.
It means that all of time is already embedded in this spacetime object.
It doesn't know anything, it simply is.
It is us that are limited by thermodynamical laws and under influence of entropic pressure.
We cannot see spacetime as a whole, we have to travel along the time axis and let that dimention unfold.
We just travel from one side of the rock to the other at the speed of time.


I like your train of thought here and, again, I mostly agree with it.

The geometric shape of the Universe as an elaborate space-time crystal (in lower four dimensions) doesn't necessarily know or able to plan anything because as you correctly mentioned, it is static and it simply is. What is changing though and what is, in a sense, "alive" is the consciousness studying this crystal by filling it with itself, looking at it from as many different perspectives as it can. And the tricky part is that this mathematical crystal and the consciousness studying it are not two different things, the former is the product of the latter. It would be very illogical to suggest the opposite, where the consciousness would arise from a static mathematical construct that simply is.

If hell is other people being forced back into a group consciousness after death would be akin to going to hell because you would no longer be a singular being Smiley


I don't think hell is a singular place either. You can create hell on Earth or some other place if you wish, or you can create Heaven within yourself regardless of where you are physically. Everything is just an experience.

As I understand it you are always a singular consciousness, what can change though is your level of awareness about other consciousnesses when you loose your physical receiver which you are currently locked into. It doesn't mean you immediately become aware of everything in the Universe. Knowledge on all levels needs to be earned. As above, so below.
Cry

I just wrote a pretty long explanation on how conciousness happens in humans (and mostly in mammals etc) but the forum burped on me and i lost it.
I don't feel like rewriting it now.

I can only say that what you propose is more like fantasy. There is no factual evidence for it.
There is, on the other hand lots and lots of factual evidence that conciousncess if funcionally created by the brain.
Parts of your conciousness can break down (illness, accidents) and it so happens that those broken parts seem to be doing exactly the function that has been broken.
Just look that stuff up yourself.

I mean, why would altzheimer have an effect on conciousness? It only breaks down the brain so according to you the conciousness should not be affected.
But with this dissease things like awareness and personality and memory break down. In fact, everything you could ever call a concious person slowly breaks down. So all these properties must be created by the brain.
There is no singular spiritual entity like a soul outside of the brain.


About manipulating the brain and observing the effects on consciousness, yes, it might look confusing at first and lead to erroneous conclusions about its origin, but there is a good analogy that would explain the situation. Imagine you're sitting locked in a dark room looking at the world around you through a glass window. If the glass is clean and transparent you can see very well, but if somebody puts some mud on your glass or even worse tries to break it so that it gets covered with tiny cracks all over the surface your vision of reality gets heavily distorted and you might even go crazy from that experience.

I cannot prove that to you, but from what I gathered being locked to the body for a life time is the latest iteration of the rules of the 3D game we are all playing. It hasn't always been like that though, but it was decided in that way, so that we can learn certain lessons that can only be learned from challenges associated with that experience. It was decided collectively and we are all here because we all agreed and wanted to play this game.

There is a lot of evidence of consciousness existing outside the body, but it is often ridiculed and not taken seriously.
There are examples of people born blind and able to see the Universe for the first time when they are in a state of coma due to some unrelated accident and then wake up from it an tell about their experiences. Or people who undergo surgical operations on the brain that require complete shutdown of the brain (no neuron activity whatsoever during the operation) and are able to tell afterwards that they saw their body laying on the table, saw the instruments that doctors used in the operation and even heard what they were talking about.

It's worse than boilerplate code in programming -- such a design by some higher being seems unlikely.

Unless mortality is never intended.

Why would you think there is intention in play?
I have seen not the slightest bit of intention comming from the universe.
Intention is a human notion.

If yes, then who are "you" really?
If no, then how would the Universe know that "you" needed to be created in the first place?

This topic is much more philosophical than it is physical or biological.

Great stuff! Smiley

I've seen references to Ra material many times, but until now haven't had enough time to really dive into it.
Thanks for the link.

It seems as channeling phenomenon is getting more widespread it would soon reach the point where it cannot be ignored by the mainstream science. It also goes well with the idea of primacy of consciousness, where body in general and the brain in particular are viewed as receivers of consciousness as opposed to a common belief of them being the generators of it.

In this regard channeling is the ability of a particular consciousness which has a receiver within a certain physical manifestation (body-brain complex) to provide this receiver for communication to another type of consciousness which doesn't have a physical receiver of their own.

On the topic itself...

I have always wandered whether this individualized consciousness that everyone perceives as "I" have always existed as such or was it created at some point from, shall we say, a bigger consciousness? Does it mean that "I" was a bigger consciousness at some point or was "I" simply contained within that bigger consciousness (along with other "I"s) that decided to split?

From what I've gathered we have always existed as individual "I"s and everyone of us has a potential to experience The One as "I" and yet still everyone of us has an individual and unique core frequency. It was really hard to grasp how can "I" be The One and still be my individual self at the same time until I found a video which provided a beautiful metaphor for it:

"Inner Worlds, Outer Worlds - Part 1 - Akasha" at 4:04
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXuTt7c3Jkg#t=04m04s

"Imagine a spider web that extends into all dimensions. The web is made of dew drops and every drop contains the reflection of all the other water drops, and in each reflected dew drop you will find the reflections of all the other droplets. The entire web in that reflection, and so on to infinity. Indra's web could be described as a holographic universe, where even the smallest stream of light contains the complete pattern of the whole."

The Primer Fields video shoots metal balls at all three: black holes, dark matter and dark energy. Smiley
I'm not saying that these phenomena don't exist, but it seems that those three are not the only way to explain galaxies.

Also: this is not true:

"The entire galaxy revolves as one plate.

I remember watching some scientific documentary on TV a few years back, where scientists noticed one interesting feature about galaxies. They found a correlation between the mass of an (alleged) super-massive black hole in its center and the orbital speed of stars. They couldn't quite grasp whether it was the black hole that influenced the stars in the outer regions or the other way around. So, yes, galaxy revolves as one plate! Wink

PS:

I just found an article supporting this point:
http://www.cosmotography.com/images/supermassive_blackholes_drive_galaxy_evolution_2.html

Other studies found another strong correlation. This one was between the mass of a supermassive black hole and the orbital speed of stars in the outer regions of their galaxy where the direct gravitational influence of the supermassive black hole should be weak: the larger the black hole, the faster the outer stars travel.

I haven't finished watching yet, but I can already see a lot of overlap with information I posted in one of my other threads

Here is just one example:

Quote
"Here is how we were mistaken in our understanding of the true forces at work in a galactic structures. These large structures in Space could not be explained by the currently accepted theory of gravity alone.

So as we studied these structures it was assumed that some extra source of gravity was required to explain how all this matter could be held in orbit around the central star in these galaxies. This is how that theory of black holes became accepted when trying to explain these structures.

It was a totally reasonable line of thinking, but it was found that even using black holes with incredible gravity we could still not explain how these large structures in space are held together and function..."

Now compare to this:

"Kryon - Recalibration of the Universe" at 29:05
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oN930nRm8No#t=29m05s
Quote
"The entire galaxy revolves as one plate. The galaxy revolves in a very non-Newtonian way. The stars and the constellations do not orbit in a Newtonian way. Because the galaxy is entangled with the middle of itself. In that state there is no time or distance. The change of consciousness on this planet has changed the center of the galaxy.

Everything your scientists have seen in physics comes in pairs. At the moment there are four laws of physics in your three dimensional paradigm. Eventually there will be six. (He is likely talking about two new force particles predicted by Pati-Salam model mentioned in the Garrett Lisi's video).

At the center of your galaxy is what you call a black hole, but it is not. It is a duality. You might say it is an energy with two parts. The weak and the strong quantum force. And it knows who you are. It is the creator engine. It's different in other galaxies than this one. The very physics of your galaxy is postured by what you do here..."

The world is indeed changing and it's just the beginning Smiley

Why the OP mixes Garrett's serious presentation, with a video of some NLP (talking with eyes closed) crack pots, elludes me?

OP might be spoofing us!

I knew someone would make that remark. There is no controversy here. It's just my preferred method of validating the patterns I encounter. I attempt to connect to as many sources as possible and see if there is some overlap in the information. I don't judge the sources by their appearance or their way of communication though it took me awhile to get to that state. Information itself is what matters most the rest is secondary.

It's the same with Bitcoin. You don't get the longest chain by looking at the IP addresses of your neighbor nodes and rejecting connections just because some of them are in North Korea or Iran. Instead you accept the information you receive from them first, process it and see who got the longest chain. Smiley

And by the way some of those "crack pots" have been sharing information for the last 30 years and have been very consistent at what they say.

...
The next thing is: Why E8 or it's subgroups?
Couldn't the universe be made of vertices which are in Coxeter groups?
Is there any reason that algebraic structures are involved at all?

Am I making any sense here?

That's the whole point of this thread!

The fact that algebraic structures (read pure mathematical) might be involved in the description of the physical reality flips the whole materialistic paradigm of modern science upside down. In materialistic paradigm the physical reality is considered primary and the consciousness is thought of as a product of complexity of material manifestation.

The opposite approach is to consider consciousness as primary and see physical reality as just one of the products of the consciousness itself. Pure mathematics is a very abstract thing and we can probably agree that it is a product of consciousness. So if physical reality turns out to have a purely mathematical structure at its core that would say a lot about its origin.

Regarding why E8 and not some other groups. It could be that E8 is just a part of the truth about our particular physical reality, but not the whole truth. Also it could be that other galaxies are based on different algebraic structures than our own Milky Way and therefore have different laws of physics. Some hints at that are given in the second to last video in my OP, but only if you are brave enough to go esoteric-crazy! Wink

Otherwise very interesting discussion! I will watch some of the videos posted here later today...
173  Other / Politics & Society / Re: A Theory of Everything and The Truth About God on: January 21, 2013, 11:25:04 AM
While the theory itself is not complete yet...
That's an understatement! In the video, Garrett Lisi himself says "This theory, and others like it, are long shots".

So maybe don't put too much energy into fantastical extrapolations just yet!

I agree, from the linear rational perspective there are still many uncertainties and details that need to be worked out, but after digging a little bit deeper into the topic I found a few interesting things which link this E8 theory to the idea of God.

Firstly, I found a conversation between Garrett LIsi and a few other physicists at the link below
http://fqxi.org/community/forum/topic/627
where they discuss certain aspects of the theory in spring 2010 and then two years later in spring 2012 there was a message from a relative of one of the physicists stating that he had passed away and that's where it gets interesting. Below is the full message (bold emphasis is mine):
Quote
To Gary Lisi -

In case you didn't know, I wanted to inform you of the unfortunate news that my brother, Ray Munroe, Jr. passed away from a heart attack on 3/11/12. He still wants his work to continue on beyond his death, and he tells me you are the man to do it. I know you don't know me, and I don't know you, but he tells me you are the one who will complete Einstein's theory with some infomration that I can provide you that originates from him. I'm not a physicist, but he told me to tell you a message & that you would understand. He keeps emphasizing the number "11" and gives me a list to give you: dark matter, anti-matter, nuclear energy, atomic energy, sub-atomic energy, sound, light, speed, time, space, and SPIRIT ENERGY - THIS IS THE MISSING LINK. He didn't completely buy into it before his death, but now he does because he IS spirit energy, and I can hear him. He said that when you complete your theory, that you will be the one to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that there is a creator. Also, he wants you to study extra sensory perception. He and I have a theory that it is largely sound-based. Again, a chance for you to tie God & science together. I can visualize his ideas if you would like to discuss them, but you will have to discuss on a bright instead of brilliant level because I do not have a genius Iq like my brother, nor have I studied your technical physics terms. I have a BA in music therapy from FSU. If you are curious to hear more, then please let me know.

Meghan

Secondly, I found references to E8 in one of the channeling sessions about Holotope experience from Darryl Anka (channel for Bashar):
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nf9DL-k8uic
where he literally says (at around 1:00 - 1:22) that you are looking into the "Eye of God". The video then proceeds to explain (at around 2:00 - 3:00) that the shape in the center of Holotope is known in mathematics as "Gosset polytope E8". The video also briefly mentions the idea of Prime Radiant which is very in tune with the Garrett LIsi's explanation in the end of his presentation of how "particles" interact with each other.

In short the idea of Prime Radiant suggests that there is only one "particle" in existence (not one type of particles but one particle in totality) which is not limited by anything else and therefore can travel at an "infinite" speed:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VNxnE8nXFo4
Here is the quote from the video above at around 3:40
"When this particle crosses its own path in this incredibly beautiful and complex geometric pattern it reinforces itself, it becomes denser and denser and denser and denser. It now has something to interact with - itself on a different path! And as it interacts with itself more and more often on many different paths in many different perspectives it becomes denser, denser, denser, denser and forms the different states of reality from higher dimensions to physical reality. But it's all the same, it's all made out of the same one thing literally."

Yes, it's not a proof of anything, but it's the synchronicities like these that make life more interesting Smiley

Some would argue the omni-presence never took a first step and that the universe is truly infinite in all directions.

Of course human comprehension is limited in this degree. Just imagine infinity equaling zero.



Maybe the Universe is in the superposition of "static omni-presence" and "taking a first step"  Grin

Just imagine infinity equaling zero.



Wow, how complex and intricate the geometric pattern must be for one single particle to look like the mess above  Shocked

The only philosopical question in live is:" should I commit suicide or not".Anything else doesnt make sense.


Death might be considered an abrupt change in frequency, but you won't cease to exist. Remember that you are here because you wanted to be here! So if you still find yourself physical then there must be some themes you wanted to explore in this reality or you wouldn't be here to begin with. So keep searching for patterns Smiley

174  Other / Politics & Society / A Theory of Everything and The Truth About God on: January 19, 2013, 01:39:43 PM
I've recently come across a nice presentation by Garrett Lisi suggesting that the whole "zoo" of particles and their interactions observable in modern particle physics can be described by a pure mathematical object called "exceptional simple Lie group E8".

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V74NBEYq3tw

While the theory itself is not complete yet, the implications of what is being suggested are profound. It means that the structure of physical reality isn't just a set of arbitrary rules but rather a result of a beautiful mathematical process, which in turn reinforces the idea of physical reality being a result of consciousness itself (this wasn't mentioned in the video, but rather an extrapolation on my part).

So it seems that consciousness builds structures based on math and logic or otherwise they wouldn't hold. It also seems that it attempts to find all structures that can possibly exist so that it doesn't miss anything interesting Smiley and this is why in many spiritual teachings God is referred to as All That Is:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdJ5AlxYZV0

The process of how everything started can also be described by what is called a Sacred Geometry, which is simply a set of rules on how to build structures from very simple constructs like dot, line, circle, etc.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx31y1KKK3E

As the video above explains, in the beginning there was consciousness (they call it Spirit of God) and the void because the consciousness hasn't manifested anything yet. The consciousness had two options: either stay in this static omni-presence indefinitely or take a first step. Eventually consciousness would start creating and since there was nothing to measure time before the first step, time didn't exist either.

If we follow the process of building structures from the start we will see at some point that there are multiple ways how to proceed forward, this is where consciousness needs to split to take on multiple paths simultaneously. I personally believe, that this feature of creation process gives rise to multiple "you"s and multiple parallel timelines even though we all still derive from that one consciousness that started the process. So "you" exist because the overall consciousness needed to split at some point to explore a certain path in creation. Below is a good channeling on the topic (I like the autotune version better):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7wM3doxMJ6s

When does 'you' stop becoming you, before you die, when you undergo certain events?

1. You were beamed planetside by Scotty, but the transporter failed to vaporize you shipside.

2. Three quarters of your brain is spliced with one quarter of another person's brain.

3. Your neurons are all replaced with electronic versions which seem to function like your neurons.

4. Someone else exists on this planet with a brain almost exactly (but not quite) like yours from a molecular standpoint, implying very similar memories, etc.

What does it mean to be you, anyway?

Yes, many people have problem with reincarnation because they associate the totality of their existence with their physical body and that's understood because this is how they've been conditioned by the mainstream science.

There is a good down-to-Earth thought experiment that would probably help them think more about who they really are:
1) Imagine you get totally drunk before going to sleep
2) Imagine waking up barely remembering who you are and going to the mirror
3) Imagine seeing a different body than the one you've anticipated in the reflection (or a body of the opposite gender for better contrast)
4) Imagine getting confused, saying "WTF?" and not recognizing your own voice.

Notice how it would still be "you" going through this whole experience while not having anything left from the body you thought you previously had.
176  Other / Politics & Society / Re: Do you believe in Reincarnation? on: January 16, 2013, 02:48:30 PM
If you answer yes:
1) Do you think there are more or less souls than there are living things on the earth suitable for reincarnation?
2) In other words, would there be a "queue" a soul would have to wait in before getting back in the game?
3) What do you think is the ratio of souls to suitable vehicles for "incarnation"?

I've just never really taken the idea seriously so if these are dumb questions sorry.

There is quite a few cases of people remembering their past lives supporting the idea that reincarnation does occur though none of it can be considered as a proof. Below is a few videos of little kids telling their parents about their past lives:

The fact that these cases involve children adds weight to the evidence because it's much harder to trick children to lie to make up a good story.

Another video on past life regression hypnosis from the pioneer in this area Dolores Cannon:

Regarding your questions about numbers of souls and vehicles for reincarnation it's all infinite and yet there are still queues of souls waiting to be reincarnated on a certain planet (not only Earth) within a certain parallel reality of which there is an infinite number of. The Earth currently seems to be the place "where it happens" as they say because of the transformation that is going on, that's why we have the population explosion that we do.

So let's say you put your bitcoins in a brain wallet.

In your next life you could visit a psychic and get in touch with your past life to remember your phrase and recover your funds.

Or maybe it's hard to remember words from a past life, so better you write them somewhere long term, like a stone wall. Then you just have to conjure up the location from your past life.

The only way to take your savings with you when you die?

No one today is likely old enough but maybe in ten years we'll hear stories of someone having a seance and discovering the phrase that unlocked their riches.

 Roll Eyes He he he.

This seems quite plausible as the information on how to reconstruct the brain wallet will still be contained within the imprint of your current life.
The video below somewhat explains the mechanism of how it works from minute 25:00 through 30:00.

I'd recommend to watch the whole thing to get into the context of what is being discussed though.

PS:
It might be easier to pass the information to your children or other relatives as the reincarnation naturally occurs within the same bloodline.

You say alot of vaguely insightful things, as do the various youtube videos you keep posting rather than in depth evidence... However, the important thing is to actually do something useful for others. I mean actually useful not just they interpreted in such and such way and it is useful. Pretty much any non status quo idea can only help people on that front whether BS or not.

I only say what needs to be said and only do what needs to be done! Wink

Everything is in a sense physics, people's thoughts, emotions and therefore relationship are no exceptions, it's all about vibrations and resonance. If you check out my other thread, you will know what I mean Wink

Everything becomes meaningful because u give the Information meaning.... that doesn't imply that everything happens for a reason.... The universe does a lot meaningless things :/
Yes, all situations are in a sense neutral, the meaning you assign to it will determine the effect you get out of it. But everything happens for a reason and you will learn to trust it with that Wink
