I have mixed them up before but I corrected this a couple weeks ago, I believe.

What you don't realize is that I learned everything I know, myself, through life experiences.
As someone who's really, really interested in the recent developments in BCIs, pray tell, how does one learn otherwise right now? All I'm saying is that I didn't get my knowledge from other sources like Buddhism or Wikipedia, I obtained it within myself. Sure I've read stuff about this things throughout my life (except not Buddhism until after), but I never connected the dots until I explored my mind to find answers. There's one hell of a difference between an internal monologue and an internal dialogue...
Yes, but they are both thoughts. Kentrolla, perhaps I meant consciousness, my mistake. I looked up what conscience meant, again, to make sure, and I think I'm referring to the consciousness we posses. Correct me if this is wrong.

all it takes is deep thought (or, even better, no thought)
So you prefer not to think and just go with the voices in your head, eh? You can meditate with or without thought. If you are connected enough and you ask why, you may just get an answer. You don't have any clue how many times I've over thought things for the worse in my life, I think plenty, thanks. ...and what are thoughts but voices in our head?

That's not accurate at all, it takes much 'work' to read into your conscious, I've been meditating for years.
i think you're using the word "conscious" wrong. I think the word you are looking for is "conscience." Please don't try to change the definition of these words in order to make it seem like you weren't wrong. I don't think so, I'm talking about the spiritual energy that you are consciously aware with.

What you don't realize is that I learned everything I know, myself, through life experiences. I learned about Buddhism afterwards, and I think it's the closest a religion can get to spirituality, next to Hinduism.
Pure spirituality, to me, would be forming your own beliefs on the universe from the inside, not outside. If you're truly searching your conscious, you will find the same truths that many others have. Religion is based on this knowledge, but often highly perverted.
I found this knowledge within myself, I have quite literally been told advice, through thought, from my conscious. In fact we all do, thoughts from either our ego or conscious and they all happen for a reason. As you explore it more, you can learn more about it, all it takes is deep thought (or, even better, no thought) with your conscious rather than your ego.

Sooo... If I meditate hard enough, I can access the knowledge of everything via the consciousness of others? Yes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akashic_RecordsHense, why I put quotations around it, Rarity. Dank, all joking aside, I really want you to consider going back onto your meds. Bipolar Disorder and Depression are honestly nothing to be embarrassed about. Your brain just doesn't produce the right chemicals on its own. That's okay though! I have an anxiety disorder myself. And so long as I take my meds, my life is pretty great. Without them I can't leave my apartment.
You're clearly a smart guy, No one really doubts that. I really believe you can be successful if you're at your best. Your meds will help you be at your best. And with the advances in modern medicine the side effects are much much more mild than they used to be.
I mean, if you had diabetes, you'd take insulin injections, right? This is the exact same thing. I know your parents would be happy to pay for your treatment, if you're concerned about the costs. Remember Dank, the strongest man is the one able to ask for help.
I've never been diagnosed with any disorder and I've never taken meds (accept good old mary jane)! I did have a depression in my life, and a little anxiety growing up at times, but I cured those myself, with my mind. Your problems are only manifested because you believe them to exist. Your problems are in your head.

It will not be in Florida, Rarity.
Your example is faulty, fgervais, being a theoretical scientist does not make you smarter, but it would be possible, depending on the awareness of the person, if the subject was philosophy rather than science. Egos are separate from one another, even though they often form a group ego (since only one ego can dominate a group without clashing with another), the shared wisdom comes from the conscious.
I learned this stuff by meditating and lowering my ego to become receptive of philosophies, by tapping into my consciousness.

I did not bring my IQ into this conversation. Go back to the SA forums if you want to talk shit, this thread is not for that.
The problem is love, or truth, destroys ego, so anybody with an ego in the way will not be receptive of this information. You all will have to find the truth for yourself, while one can explain it, it's up to you to find it within you and accept it.

I'm not saying science is wrong, I'm saying we're both right... What's wrong with that?
I took a test as a young kid, I didn't know the result until around a year ago, my parents don't remember the exact number. Not that it matters.
If none of you are interested in understanding my perspective, there is no point of debating it, since I'm not debating against science.

Universe: All existing matter and space considered as a whole. This means one. We are literally particle byproducts of the big bang. And the relationship between the Big Bang and consciousness is...what? Well the big bang is the creation from a single point of consciousness, and it's still going on today, but what I was saying here is that the we are byproducts of the big bang, directly made of and by the universe. It seems to me most of you are arguing for the sake of arguing and not trying to grasp a higher understanding of what I'm saying.

I realized that after I posted it, it doesn't change the validity of what I'm saying.
Except, we are made of and by the universe. We are literally particle byproducts of the big bang.

I didn't bring string theory up - you did. Seriously, point out the error in this statement: The universe is one thing, it literally means "All existing matter and space considered as a whole," the universe makes everything, therefor everything is made of the same thing. Everything is made of the universe, which is god, love, conscious, pure energy.
It makes perfect sense, to me, and everyone else that believes we are all connected.
I bolded your error in logic. The toymaker makes all the toys, therefore all the toys are the same. I understand it makes perfect sense to you, that is why it is your opinion. No, it's like saying the toymaker makes all the toys out of wood, therefor all the toys are made of wood. Actually, it's doesn't make any sense to compare a man made thing to the cosmos. There was no error in the bolded part. If the universe makes up everything, what is everything made of? The universe. How could we possibly be separate conscious beings, when consciousness is the universe and there's only one universe? That would require the universe to be separate from itself, which it's not because it is a whole.

It talks about dimensions across the whole page. But explain to me why it's relevant, please.

Ok, you just did that stupid false not 150 iq logic again. String theory says that at the smallest possible level (Planck length) the strings oscillate differently. They oscillate one way and the string is energy. Oscillate another way and that strings works as gravity. That very heart of the string theory says the basic building blocks of our universe are different. Your error this time is jumping from the definition of the universe to everything being made of the same thing. Logic I cannot understand, but my IQ is not 150. (Sorry, over 150 - didn't mean to insult you) No where in the theory does it say that the universe is god, love, consciousness and energy. So that is your opinion. I didn't bring string theory up - you did. Seriously, point out the error in this statement: The universe is one thing, it literally means "All existing matter and space considered as a whole," the universe makes everything, therefor everything is made of the same thing.

Kentrolla, then explain to me how, and what different energies can comprise mass within our universe? If everything in the universe is made up of the universe, how does a second energy make up the universe? According to your source, it is talking about dimensions.
According to my source? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theoryRead it - don't just jump to the part that agrees with your opinion. If mass is the same thing as energy, and they are interchangeable, does that not indicate to you, that all matter is made of conscious energy. I'm really curious, how could we have multiple, independent types of conscious energies comprising one universe?
Ok, let's discuss this. What do you mean by conscious energy? How did you make the leap from energy being equal to mass to all matter being made of this new type of energy? It talks about dimensions across the whole page. But explain to me why it's relevant, please. The universe is one thing, it literally means "All existing matter and space considered as a whole," the universe makes everything, therefor everything is made of the same thing. Everything is made of the universe, which is god, love, conscious, pure energy.

An intriguing feature of string theory is that it predicts extra dimensions. In classical string theory the number of dimensions is not fixed by any consistency criterion. However, to make a consistent quantum theory, string theory is required to live in a spacetime of the so-called "critical dimension": we must have 26 spacetime dimensions for the bosonic string and 10 for the superstring. This is necessary to ensure the vanishing of the conformal anomaly of the worldsheet conformal field theory. Modern understanding indicates that there exist less-trivial ways of satisfying this criterion. Cosmological solutions exist in a wider variety of dimensionalities, and these different dimensions are related by dynamical transitions. The dimensions are more precisely different values of the "effective central charge", a count of degrees of freedom that reduces to dimensionality in weakly curved regimes.[14][15] One such theory is the 11-dimensional M-theory, which requires spacetime to have eleven dimensions,[16] as opposed to the usual three spatial dimensions and the fourth dimension of time. The original string theories from the 1980s describe special cases of M-theory where the eleventh dimension is a very small circle or a line, and if these formulations are considered as fundamental, then string theory requires ten dimensions. But the theory also describes universes like ours, with four observable spacetime dimensions, as well as universes with up to 10 flat space dimensions, and also cases where the position in some of the dimensions is not described by a real number, but by a completely different type of mathematical quantity.[which?] So the notion of spacetime dimension is not fixed in string theory: it is best thought of as different in different circumstances.[17] According to your source, it is talking about dimensions. If mass is the same thing as energy, and they are interchangeable, does that not indicate to you, that all matter is made of conscious energy. I'm really curious, how could we have multiple, independent types of conscious energies comprising one universe?

Do you know what E=MC^2 means? All matter is made of the same energy.
No, it doesn't say that. It says mass and energy are the same thing (=) String theory postulates that different strings operate at different "frequencies" producing mass, energy, gravity, etc. It's called the theory of everything. String theory directly contradicts what you just said. If mass is the same as energy, would all matter not be made of the same energy? String theory is talking about dimensions, not universes. There are multiple dimensions, as there are realities, these comprise one universe. If we are the universe, we are all one.

Yes, Albert Einstein was very stupid when he formulated E=MC^2.
