I don’t believe in coincidences.
and that depends on your definition for knowledge. Sure, we have much more advanced technological devices and better understanding of those matters, but where did it get us?
What do you think Einstein meant by saying:
“reality is merely an illusion, albeit a persistent one”
Well, if the pineal gland is merely a physical functioning gland, why has it gotten much smaller? Our physical systems have improved significantly. At our ancestors time, people were much more “spiritual”, concentrating much less on the material. Do you think it’s just another coincidence ?
I’m not saying our ancestors understood quantum physics. Surely, I believe they didn’t (can’t be sure though). You don’t need to understand the physics behind the universe in order to realize the nature of the universe.
Sorry, but what’s Ad Hominems?
What good has the materialistic thinking brought upon mankind?
The Mayan Calendar does not imply on the world ending. This is a big misdirection.
An era is ending. And actually, as I said, a good one is about to unfold.
In no way I think the universe is about to end.
What I was trying to say is that how can you be certain of scientific proof? Some time ago, people on earth was just as certain as you are of the earth being round that it is indeed flat. It was “proven” that the atom was the smallest particle, no?
How can you be sure of anything? What I’m saying is that any scientific proof can be shaken. I don’t understand why you are accusing me of “begging the question”
I always have an open mind and I keep evolving and shaping my beliefs. Nonetheless, the fundamentals are the same. Keep in mind, many people are certain of life after death, those people have no doubts. I doubt there is one person in the world that would bet his life on the fact there isn’t anything after that.
It’s not exactly Clairaudience and Ill send you something soon enough.
Im saying I’m not guessing because I feel it, I live it and I see this reality every day, every minute. I see directly how my mind affects my life, from the tiniest things like parking spots to major issues. It’s much more complicated than that of course, and I believe that every person who will open his mind and try to see, will.
Today, I had an energetic activity in this course I’m taking with 10 other people and every time, activity is done, the electricity jumps on and off, when were just sitting and talking, nothing happens. Not to mention, the things I see and feel. Im just mentioning the light as a physical “proof”. Of course, you probably won’t believe me as that can’t be true.
Let’s get one thing straight first. I don’t believe in psychics. We are all “psychics”. We all have those powers. We just have to activate them, and every one is using them in one way or another. Did you ever know who was on the other side of the phone before answering? did you ever want someone to look at you from the other side of the street and suddenly he does? We are using them all the time, in one way or another.
Psychics who try to make money are probably frauds. I know more than one “psychic” and all of them are interested in helping much more than in money.
here is a scientific quote from a new research (finally…)
"During a cardiac arrest, all three criteria of clinical death are present: the heart stops beating, the lungs stop working, and the brain ceases functioning. Subsequently, there is a period of time—which may last from a few seconds up to an hour or longer—in which emergency medical efforts may succeed in resuscitating the heart and reversing the dying process. The experiences that individuals undergo during this period of cardiac arrest provide a unique window of understanding into what we are all likely to experience during the dying process.
In recent years, a number of scientific studies conducted by independent researchers have found that as many as 10-20 percent of individuals who undergo cardiac arrest report lucid, well-structured thought processes, reasoning, memories, and sometimes detailed recall of their cardiac arrest. What makes these experiences remarkable is that while studies of the brain during cardiac arrest have consistently that there is no brain activity during this period, these individuals have reported detailed perceptions that appear to indicate the presence of a high-level of consciousness in the absence of measurable brain activity.
These studies appear to suggest that the human mind and consciousness may in fact function at a time when the clinical criteria of death are fully present and the brain has ceased functioning. If these smaller studies can be replicated and verified through the definitive, large-scale studies of the Human Consciousness Project, they may not only revolutionize the medical care of critically ill patients and the scientific study of the mind and brain, but may also bear profound universal implications for our social understanding of death and the dying process."
“This has led some prominent researchers, such as the late Nobel-winning neuroscientist Sir John Eccles, to propose a dualist view of the problem, arguing that the human mind and consciousness may in fact constitute a separate, undiscovered entity apart from the brain.”
