If I could beat the shit out of everyone who pissed me off I’d have 6.7 Billion counts of assault filed against me…

Dr Wjb

‘I’m OK, You’re OK’ is not an axiom. I am not OK. You are definitely not OK. There is no human (and I remain limited to humans for the moment) who is ‘OK.’

You might be pissed that I said that, and argue, I’m OK, and put the book down. But just wait until next time you’re driving, or something isn’t going ideologically as desired, and BAM – ‘You’re NOT OK.’

Pain, strife, aggravation, fear, anxiety, romantic love, jealousy, anger, all emotions are mere perceptions. It is not possible for any of these things to have infinite values or duration assigned to them. Furthermore, they seem limited to the human condition, not even spilling out into other mammals, for the most part, and change over the course of history, referring to the past half million years or so. So they (emotions) are definitely finite and transient.

Love is a spiritual state, not an emotion. Faith is a spiritual state, not a cognitive belief or ability to ‘believe.’ Love as an emotion is for women and song. ‘Belief’ is for Peter Pan and flat earths.

On the other hand, killing is what all but single celled microorganisms called ‘extremophiles’ (because of their ability to live in extreme conditions) must do in order to continue living. Being a vegetarian is a nice gesture, but vegetables are also living things. There is at this time no quantifying method for how alive or how important a particular life form or individual living thing (perhaps you) is. I have assigned the only quantity assigned to life in any form, and I have assigned All Life as being infinite in nature, not finite.

You may say that is ridiculous, no one has assigned a quantity to life. But I have very explicitly laid the math, equations, mathematical processes, and axioms out in great detail in QP/NDE. If you have not read and understood the equations, then you need to go back and read them again.

I quote myself:

The Universe, being finite in duration to an eternal (infinite in duration) being is so infinitesimal, it mathematically does not exist. It is perfectly OK that the Universe does not truly exist. It exists only as a construct of consciousness, as we will explore as we progress onward. In math we say that any number, no matter how large, divided by infinity, equals zero:

n/infinity=0

An ideological argument otherwise is in opposition of the formal definitions of ‘Infinitesimal Calculus,’ in modern terms replaced by ‘Limits,’ but the numeric value is still formally zero. Zero is actually an unachievable state in Quantum Physics, the lower limit resting upon a Zero Point value defined by Planck’s constant, as a formal definition.

As a formal definition; the limit as 'x' approaches infinity for 1/x = 0.

This relationship also clearly says that consciousness must be infinite in duration in order to truly exist. Since we are talking about consciousness, this relationship is true even if infinity or eternity is conceptual. You either exist for infinity or you do not exist. There is no way out of this system; there is no alternative solution. The argument you exist now but cease to exist forever is dismissed by this equation. If you do not exist forever, then you do not exist.

The argument that you exist now but cease to exist forever into the future requires that at some point infinitely in the future you are perceived as not having existed infinitely into the past. If you have not existed infinitely into the past from some future perspective and do not exist infinitely into future from your current perspective then you never have and never will exist, for all infinity.

Regardless of the philosophical argument, with respect to time, infinity must be real. A thing that has a beginning is not infinite; it has a lower boundary. There is no upper limit of infinity with respect to time. This is a common misconception. The upper limit for time is the subjective present, and not a second beyond. Time is real and is bound on both sides, at the lower boundary, the beginning, and the upper boundary, the present. Time is not and can never be infinite. Regardless of how far you ‘project’ into the future, the upper limit will still be that subjective present and therefore bound on both sides.

You cannot 'fit' an infinite (eternal) thing (you) inside of a finite system – this Universe. You are not here. This not ideological but based on the simple mathematical axioms regarding limits at infinity I have provided above. These formal axioms state unambiguously that this is the case.

The Greeks had been translating the Hebrew texts into Greek for their libraries (the sum of human knowledge) for about 400 years when the Romans sacked Jerusalem. It is a common misconception that the Romans merely destroyed the temple. The Romans did to the Jews what Romans do to a people who rebel based on a religion – they burned every document in all of Judea and destroyed every religious artifact in the region. Only one armful (as much as one running man can carry) of the original texts would be found 2000 years later, the Dead Sea Scrolls.

With every written document in all of Judea destroyed by the Romans, the Jews consequently turned to the Greeks, who had been translating their texts, to get their texts back, by translating them back into Hebrew.

The difference between the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Hebrew texts as we see them today are rather astounding in many regards. This is because the Greeks translated many intangible things into terms and vocabulary that were common to Greek thinking at the time, for Greeks, in Greek terms. At that time, specifically, the Greeks were obsessed with African mysticism, which defined ‘demons’ as evil spirits, fallen from ‘the stars,’ (‘star’ is actually an African word meaning ‘wise one’) the cause of all disease and problems and troubles, each disease and problem of man was caused by a specific ‘demon,’ each ‘demon’ had a proper name. The concept fascinated the Greeks, which got translated into the Hebrew texts at every point where an intangible thing regarding a disease or problem or tribulation appeared.

You’ll note constant references in Bible talk to the phrase ‘from the original Greek.’ What I just described historically is the source of this phrase.

Satan, Lucifer, and so on all have well documented delineated sources that are well established, and not of Hebrew origin or any text of the Bible or Judaic work, that includes the works we regard as ‘The New Testament,’ which were also destroyed by the Romans at that time, and subsequently re-acquired from the Greeks after having been translated in the same fashion.

In short, there is no such thing as demons, devils, or Satan. As much as people yearn for their problems to be the result of some unseen tormentor, as the Greeks once did, this is not the case. If you decide to swallow the idea that demons, devils, and Satan are real then you are very unambiguously believing African Mysticism as your religion, because that is the ultimate source of the myth.

The same holds true for a large portion of fundamentalist ideology in Christianity, and certainly extends to the Jewish religion, as well for the obvious reason that she current source of all of their religious documents is Greek, not Hebrew, as is the common misconception.

So, if you are Christian, Jew, Muslim, even Atheist, you have grown up ‘believing,’ loving, hating, warring, preaching, possibly being filled with guilt, shame, condemnation, and the entire host of these things being the result of Greek documents, whose source is filled with Greek ideology of the first century, encroached with a fascination with African Mysticism, contaminating the timeline of humanity by providing documents that were never intended to leave Greek hands, into the hands of the Jews, who contaminated Christianity, who went on killing each other over ideology for two millennia, the Jews who then fought with the Muslims for another two thousand years, giving birth to Atheists who cannot stand being part of any of it…

Doesn’t anyone study history?

From page 38: “The freezing of time by constant observation is the Quantum Zeno Effect. Wave Function Collapse is the moment you take your eyes off of it – it changes to another, possibly final state. Eyes on it – Quantum Zeno Effect; frozen, blink your eyes – Wave Function Collapse, changes to another state. It is proven mathematically and by experimentation that the true and actual progression of time as we know it is governed by the observer and this eyes on it, eyes off of it concept of the Quantum Zeno Effect and Wave Function Collapse.”

I have had more questions on this than I can count.

In the 1970's I think it was, Hawking presented what was referred to the 'Information Paradox,' which you can look up. The 'paradox' was that as stuff 'falls into a black hole' information is destroyed, violating the second law of thermodynamics. Some years later, David Susskind resolved the issue by pointing out that nothing can 'fall into a black hole,' because time slows asymptotically, forever slowing down but never achieving zero, thus nothing ever actually reaches the event horizon, or the 'Swarzchild’ radius, just forever approaches it, and is not lost, just slowed down indefinitely. That model is now referred to as the 'holographic principle' in physical cosmology and is agreed upon unanimously as true and correct. i added the holographic principle in the last edition because so many people asked me about it.

In Quantum Temporal Dynamics I resolved the issue by suggesting that conscious observation affects the rate of the flow of time because information is 'falling into' an infinite domain, namely, us, asymptotically slowing time by the same principle as Susskind's model. Discontinuing conscious observation 'releases' the event back into the global flow of time of the environment, finite linear time.

I have pointed out that Quantum Physics has become a ‘belief system,’ a ‘religion,’ and has completely departed from pure science. The data that exists today does not support the current hypothesis, but in fact the current hypothesis in mainstream Quantum Theory has become exactly opposite of what the data represents. The idea that consciousness and reality are not related and there is some mechanistic explanation for ‘everything’ resulting in you being a finite being is the mainstream, just so you know. However, over a century of the greatest minds using the most mind boggling technology and on scales unprecedented in human history have failed to produce those results, that data, and any evidence whatsoever to support that claim. The data, in fact, unambiguously says exactly opposite. The data is absolutely compelling toward the conclusion that ‘Consciousness Paints the Universe into Being.’

A human bias against creativity is hindering science, research claims

Dec. 12, 2011
Special to World Science

Most us us profess to love creativity. But we recoil when it stares us in the face, according to a new study that seems to seems lodge a quiet indictment against the whole human race.

Jennifer S. Mueller of the University of Pennsylvania and colleagues, who conducted the work, say their study both demonstrates and helps explain the phenomenon. The problem that perhaps most interferes with our recognition and appreciation for real-life creativity, they claim, is that creativity usually comes with a side dish of uncertainty: Will this new idea actually work? What will people think of me if I accept it?


One of many scientists ridiculed in his time for work now considered seminal—the American physicist Robert Goddard (1882-1945)

Our love of creativity is what we profess in public—but our dread of it is what we tend to hide from the world, and often even from ourselves, they add.

The study is important, they continue, because society lovingly expends resources to foster creativity in each new generation—then often turns around and squashes the new ideas that result. It’s time to figure out ways to put a stop to this, they say.

“Robert Goddard, the father of modern rocket propulsion, endured ridicule and derision from his contemporary scientific peers who stated his ideas were ludicrous and impossible,” they noted as an example, in a report on their findings. The paper appears in the Nov. 29 advance online issue of the journal Psychological Science.

Scientists in every generation from Galileo to Daniel Shechtman—2011 Nobel laureate in chemistry—were initially ridiculed for now-famous work. The same can be said of a legion of artists.

“The field of creativity may need to shift its current focus from identifying how to generate more creative ideas to identifying how to help innovative institutions recognize and accept creativity,” Mueller and colleagues wrote. “If people hold an implicit bias against creativity, then we cannot assume that organizations, institutions or even scientific endeavors will desire and recognize creative ideas even when they explicitly state they want them.”

Mueller and colleagues paid a group of participants to take a series of tests designed to reveal both conscious and unconscious attitudes toward creativity.

In one test that took the form of a word-association game, they found that participants seemed to display an unconscious negative attitude toward creativity if the experimenters had made an attempt to plant thoughts of uncertainty in their heads. They tried to seed this uncertainty by promising that some participants would later receive an additional payment based on a lottery. In the word game—similar to a type of test previously used to reveal unconscious racial attitudes—researchers sought to measure whether participants took a little longer to associate words related to creativity with positive things than with negatives ones, or vice-versa.

In a second experiment, the researchers found that negative feelings about creativity also disrupted the ability to recognize that quality. In this part, they presented participants with an idea for an invention that had been judged creative by a group of college students. It involved a sneaker with a nanotechnology that supposedly adjusted fabric thickness to cool the foot and reduce blisters.

Mueller and colleagues pointed to one possible route through which scientific institutions are stifling their own ability to recognize creativity.

“When journals extol creative research, universities train scientists to promote creative solutions, R&D companies commend the development of new products, pharmaceutical companies praise creative medical breakthroughs, they may do so in ways that promote uncertainty by requiring gate-keepers to identify the single ‘best’ and most ‘accurate’ idea thereby creating an unacknowledged aversion to creativity,” they wrote.

“Future research should identify factors which mitigate or reverse the bias against creativity.

As an example, this article focused on Robert Goddard, who was mocked, but USA history says is the father of modern rocketry; but ironically, he was completely replaced by Wernher Von Braun, a German, Nazi, rocket scientist who actually was the first to succeed. So, you have Goddard mocked, USA history will not admit that a nazi was in charge of and responsible for our rocket science, and teaches high-school children that Goddard is the father of modern rocketry, failing to admit it was in fact a Nazi, Von Braun’s name does not appear in any high-school level history book, and Goddard never successfully launched a rocket. Since Goddard and Von Braun are separated in time by decades, the dates have been altered so that it appears Goddard succeeded, not Von Braun, who was at the time an embarrassment because he was 'the enemy.'


These issues have only recently been cleared up in the classroom, now that we can leave WWII behind, because the actual eyewitnesses are gone.


'Eyewitness' is the key. Without an observer you can report 'anything.'


That is the real story. The only correct features are that rockets were eventually launched, but the history, the actual names and dates have been completely changed for appearance sake.

There was no American rocket program, it was a German rocket program moved to the Nevada desert after the war.

Bizarre.

I need to make it clear to potential readers and readers alike that I am not using the definitions of Quantum Physics to validate mystical experiences and so on. In Fact, many readers are put off by the chapters devoted to squashing such mystical experiences down to the mundane level of human experience and limited human existence, human invention.

Most ‘belief’ systems are cognitive in origin. I do however separate the definitions for ‘belief’ from that of Faith. Faith is a spiritual state of being that has no definition. It can only be experienced by experiencing it, which can only be accomplished by ‘doing it,’ regardless of what you ‘believe.’

I am using the principles of Quantum Physics to validate ‘you,’ that ‘you’ are an infinite (eternal) being, that this universe is by definition: finite. And ultimately: ‘You cannot fit an infinite (eternal) thing (you) inside of a finite system (this Universe) – you are not here. Leaving you residing at this very moment in some infinite domain. In the Religions of Man that seek a relationship with God we call that infinite domain ‘a heaven’ or Heaven, depending on which Religion of Man you are referring to; at this very moment, not in some unobservable future where you are ‘transformed’ into some eternal form. Your physical body is merely a construct of your consciousness, which resides in that infinite domain.

The key concept that leads modern physicists to try desperately to lead their thinking away from consciousness in the equations is their own inability to define it in terms that are suitable for and within the formal definitions of Quantum Physics and Physical Cosmology and also the philosophies and Religions of Man. I have found this definition and described in great detail exactly what it is and how we ‘Paint the Universe into Being.’ The exact mechanisms proposed sound a bit outrageous but they are founded upon science fact and theory by some of the greatest minds in the history of science, and ultimately, the math is clear, concise, works from the Cosmological down to the Quantum Scale, and eliminates most every ‘Paradox’ in Science and Religion and Philosophy.

A mathematical description that eliminates every known ‘Paradox’ is a definition that works.

So it is necessary to teach you Quantum Physics, as it was determined and defined b the founders of this science, the men who had peered into a realm never before seen or expected or even within the human frame of reference altogether, and could not possible have imagined or dreamed it up, because it was so far from the human experience that dreaming up such a profound description of reality is impossible.

It is then necessary to explain why all of the ‘alternative hypothesis’ that exclude consciousness from the equations fail, exactly how and why, and present the data that is irrefutably saying exactly opposite of these failed hypothesis.

This book is the precursor to Quantum Temporal Dynamics, which is probably a bit beyond the lay reader, unless a solid working knowledge of the principles of the Standard Model in Quantum ‘Mechanics’ is understood.

(Speculative, very speculative, but fascinating, none the less…)

First we’ll look again at some diagrams of the Double Slit Experiment: (PLEASE SEE THE LINK ABOVE FOR DIAGRAMS)


If you consider what I have discussed regarding the Quantum Zeno Effect, the fact that we absolutely control the flow of forward (asymmetric) linear time by conscious observation, the rate of observation, by sustained attention (increase in Uncertainty, slowing time; we don’t know nor can we predict where the arrow will strike because it is not in motion) and release (increase in Certainty, speeding the passage of time; we know more certainly and can predict where the arrow will strike because it is in motion), then take into account that under the absolute rules of General Relativity, as time slows, space curves inward, the following proposed mechanism begins to make sense.

I have labeled two of the bands as ‘A’ and ‘B’ above. The detector, usually or often just a piece of emulsion film, is the method of observation. We cannot observe the particles or photons before the detector, that much has been proven, if we do, the interference pattern disappears. That, too, is important, if you follow.

As we observe the points ‘A’ and ‘B’ real time slows, they merge as the same point, but the merging is not well defined, because the observer’s observation is not well defined, time itself is not well defined, but ‘smeary,’ the points merge in the form of a gradient, not a perfect overlap. It is the points ‘A’ and ‘B’ that during the experiment merge in the form of a gradient, not a sharp merging. The photon, in this case (can be electrons, etc.) is striking one point in space (space-time), but the point is merging with another point in space-time, in a nebulous form, because time is not absolute or well defined, as I’ve pointed out continuously throughout this work.

When we pull the piece of film out and develop it, or whatever detector we use, we see that it appears the single photons have struck in a way that appears superficially to ‘interfere with itself,’ which is not entirely incorrect, since the points ‘A’ and ‘B’ in space-time where they struck were merging in the form of a gradient due to conscious observation via the Quantum Zeno Effect, and the rule that observation slows time, General Relativity requires then that as time slows space curves inward, the points ‘A’ and ‘B’ merge as a smear because time is smeary and not well defined, and an interference pattern is the result. The photon (or particle) is striking in one place, but that ‘place’ contains two points in space-time (‘A’ and ‘B’) that have merged or are merging; again, as a gradient, because time is not absolute, but smeary.

The disappointing result is that we are not directly choosing the outcome, but the ironic twist is that we are affecting the outcome by changing the flow of time by conscious observation. We are indirectly selecting the outcome. Thus, all attempts to directly affect the outcome (for instance, choose which slit the photons pass through) to support the original hypothesis fail, because direct selection is not what it occurring. As a result, we get two camps in disagreement arguing the ambiguity of the result, but not seeing the obvious cause of it.

If we attempt to observe the photon or particle prior to the detector (film, where the interference pattern shows up) then the conscious observation is at another point in space-time, not at the detector, and time slows at some of ‘place’ then that occupied by ‘A’ and ‘B.’

If you look at the plethora of books that have sold a lot of copies on this topic, and do the math, the obvious occurs.

Commerce does not follow a natural, bell shaped curve; it is a random system, the only system ever found that is truly random. However, over the course of, say, two or three years, roughly 1 to 3 percent of individuals will experience an increase of income. If you sell a 1,000,000 books, that means about 10,000 will experience an increase in income in this time frame. The increase is typified by short duration, after which the increase gradually or in many cases suddenly falls back to average.

You therefore, by publishing a book and selling 1,000,000 copies, by virtue of random behavior, can expect something on the order of 10,000 positive testimonials (the number will vary wildly, at random). The principles about ‘thinking positive’ are like a religious dogma, place the result and the burden of accomplishment on the end user. For instance, like any dogma, if you ‘fail’ it is because of some shortcoming on your part. Thus, you do not see 10,000 alternate negative testimonials, or people crying out that it did not work, since this is an admission of failure on their part, the burden of the result of ‘positive thinking’ netting no positive result to be your failure to ‘think positive.’

The authors therefore sell a lot of copies (and temporarily experience that financial increase, it will be taken away swiftly however), because people seek new dogma to change their situation and circumstances by some intangible process, a random quantity of them experience temporary change in their situation, and the cycle of such pulp literature goes on, indefinitely.

In the original mathematical study of random behavior (Chaos Theories) a truly random model was needed as a baseline, and none could be found in nature. If you look at the pattern of the falling of raindrops and the explosions of supernova (about 100 every second anywhere in the Universe, meaning that the light witnessed now has traveled anywhere from millions to billions of years to get here); the two things will correlate in a well defined mathematical relationship, regardless of the fact that supernova are spread out throughout the universe over billions of years of space and time, correlating to a seemingly random falling of water droplets here and now. Mathematicians failed to find anything in nature that was truly random.

Commerce is the only system ever found that cannot be described by mathematics, i.e., it is truly random.

Money is not a 'thing of nature.' It is a thing that is absolutely and completely removed from nature as a thing can be. It is completely artificial. Man makes it. It is defined by 100 years of the greatest mathematical minds in history as 'a truly Chaotic artificial system.' If it is a truly Chaotic artificial system, then no matter what you do to it, you will get a truly random result. This is why politics fail. This is why politicians of all nations fail. This is the very heart of Entropy (natural decay) in this world. Our world is being attacked by a truly Chaotic man made thing.

You have authority over nature; commerce is not part of nature.

‘Thinking’ changes nothing, as I point out: once all of the people on Earth were intent (intention) that the Earth was the center of the Universe, they all believed it, they all knew it – it did not alter the structure of the Universe in any way. They did not doubt it, there was not even an alternative model available by which to doubt. The Earth not being the center of the Universe was at that time completely beyond the human experience. And still, the structure of the Universe did not change.

Preachers who preach financial prosperity of course get the same results as seculars writing about obtaining wealth. One I am thinking of in particular has ‘a fleet’ of Leer jets, and security around him about as tight as any Vice President, and has not broadcast a single ‘healing’ since the very day he started ‘preaching about prosperity.’

As I have stated clearly: You will always live with the sense that you were meant for something better, something bigger, always that nagging idea that many interpret in various physical forms of commerce, fame, success, and so on. But there will be no epiphany, no nirvana, no enlightenment; you will not see the face of God until you stare into the eyes of someone who is more helpless than yourself and lift them up.

I had a question regarding what might appear to be a contradiction between two separate statements in the book, as follows:

"There is no regard for what we consider physical reality, it is merely accepted that it is a thing some people do, like taking a nap. No one ‘disappears’ from Heaven to be on Earth, you are always there, this human existence is so brief it doesn’t even occur. What seems like a ‘revelation’ to a physical handicapped (limited) mind here on earth is as common as breathing to an all knowing being, referring to yourself, and all life. There is no ‘here’ and ‘there,’ we never exist in this domain, we only observe it."

And then:
Consciousness is misunderstood as a thing, which exists in this Universe. It does not. It cannot. It is impossible for consciousness to exist in this Universe for reasons I have continually described throughout this work. And I will not stop repeating it. What we actually experience is a small fraction of the focus of our awareness of our true selves, our perception; we exist not inside the confines of this Universe, not in some Heaven in the future, such as some time after physical death, but right now. You are not who or what you think you are. This tiny fraction of the focus of our awareness seems to be involved in some activity which is governed by at least but not limited to the following set of rules or conditions I list here because they are the ones which seem obvious to me:
· You exist seemingly separate from God.
· Space and time are real.
· The physical, carnal world is real.
· You have no immediate perception of your true infinite nature.
· Although you have near infinite knowledge and understanding, tangibly demonstrated by your ability to manipulate space, time, mass, energy, and the four known forces of nature at will, you are limited to a very finite set of rules and understanding and intellect suitable for the purpose of the game.
· You exist in a set of circumstances and surrounded by individuals and settings that support your role in the game.
· You are required to bury yourself in the role – the willful suspension of disbelief - as though it were real.
· The goal is not to find your way out of The Game; you are here for the multitude of things that are accomplished by being in The Game. The goal is to get to the next level of The Game.

There is no contradiction, the first description is from a perspective of looking at ‘reality’ from outside of the system, the second description is from a perspective ‘inside’ the system, the rules that govern it, that are obvious.

Assigning meaning or value to ‘life’ and the experiences that occur is limited to our human frame of reference. In simple terms, assigning meaning and value to a big event, such as the death of a loved one: how can you assign meaning or value when you have no clue regarding the fate of the individual, no clue where they go, if they are truly infinite (eternal)? If they (your ‘dead’ loved one) is truly an infinite being then the value and meaning we assign to their death in the human frame of reference is erroneous, because the event extends far (infinitely so) beyond our human frame of reference, our human, limited experience. Can you mourn for an infinite being? What is there to ‘save’ an infinite being from?

The seeming paradox is caused by our lack of comprehension regarding the fact that they (your dead loved one) are an infinite being, we perceive only that which is finite, and assign values according to that vision of finite existence. As such, even mourning your loss, from this perspective, makes no sense, because the time you are seemingly separated from them is, to an infinite being, infinitesimal, mathematically zero, and separation is not a correct understanding.

In a broader scope, we can include the perception of the means and cause of their ‘death.’ Again, if we are infinite beings, these perceptions and understandings are erroneous, regardless of how it appears from a human frame of reference, our limited human experience and comprehension does not include information regarding our infinite nature, and therefore what we assign cognitively cannot possibly include the scope from the perspective of being truly infinite (eternal) beings.

As for our purpose, meaning, and so on, these values even in human terms are so obviously beyond our comprehension that no one has actually successfully assigned any such meaning or purpose. We assign such values and meanings essentially randomly, and these visions change rapidly from one day to the next, sometimes from one moment to the next.

I use the expression ‘game’ because inherently, by human standards, we know all of these things, but agree while experiencing this ‘perception’ of life ‘not to know them,’ to be seemingly separate from God, limited, finite, even powerless.

A HUGE example that is definitively beyond human comprehension is that Jesus went knowingly and willingly to suffer and die. In one sense, we could regard that in limited human terms as ‘suicide.’ But it is agreed that His death is the most monumental moment in Christian ideology, changing the human condition altogether for infinity.

On the other hand, I have known a number of individuals who have committed suicide in the common sense of the word, and we usually assign a negative value to this, perhaps rightfully so, because most individuals I have known to commit suicide are not Certain of their infinite nature, they died ‘believing’ they were finite, and committed suicide as a means of escaping human suffering (for themselves); and yet at some period of time later, most of those who remain alive have attained some positive value, comprehension, understanding, and so on, from their death.

Death, regardless of the cause, is the single most focusing event that leaves the rest of the ‘living’ just an inch closer to accepting our infinite nature. As I’ve stated, that is why we have been ritualistically burying our dead for 400,000 years, before we were Homo-sapiens.

The term ‘Near Death’ was aptly chosen by Moody. These individuals are not being ‘resurrected,’ they are being resuscitated. The instruments and readouts are obviously not defining death, because we who have designed and constructed such instruments have no clue what death is: a failure to define death. We have failed therefore to define life. You could argue it’s easy, they are walking, talking, therefore alive. But an hour ago that guy was on a slab and all of our instruments and methods said he was dead, when he was alive; failed to define ‘alive.’

As for time appearing to dilate during these NDEs (experiences that seem to last for hours or days occur in just a few minutes), we cannot extend that information to an infinite domain, since an NDE is by definition, not dead.

As for my own NDEs, as I’ve stated, trying to milk a description where none is possible leads to confabulation. This is demonstrated by looking at the broad scope of descriptions available. I have therefore chosen not to try and describe ‘what I saw,’ but rather describe what I learned.

As a consequence, the information presented will be ‘fuzzy’ at first, but will become an internal dialogue as the physical cognitive brain wrestles with the information. It may potentially even become aggressive at times, an argument, including conflict, perhaps even anger. But these emotions are ‘normal’ with any internal dialogue that deals with new information, particularly when such information attempts to displace a cognitive belief system that the physical brain has been using for comfort and validation.

The physical cognitive brain is pre-programmed for self-survival and therefore wants to and will fight to find ‘immortality’ where this is not possible, because it is made of inert, finite material. Hence, you see a lot of belief systems where people have somehow convinced themselves by whatever means that ‘resurrection’ and so on refers to some physical, permanent existence, rather than an unobservable, infinite domain where the physical brain cannot exist.

Ultimately, however, the cognitive, physical brain will reason out the correct conclusion; that it is a manifestation, an extension of an infinite being, and that it will exist for infinity merely as a different type of manifestation of this infinite being, referring to your ‘self,’ at which point it will release you, let you go.

This phenomenon is described in detail in the book.

The Quantum Zeno Effect (QZE) is the phenomenon observed, detected, measured, quantified, peer reviewed, and proven that the absolute flow of normal time as we measure it by the most strict standard possible, the hitherto unalterable radioactive decay of atomic nuclei, is controlled, absolutely, by conscious observation.

If we observe a quantum event such as a radioactive decay constantly, without ceasing, or approach that state by more rapid measurements, it will not decay. The less frequently we observe the nuclei, the more rapidly it will decay.

So, in one sense we state that conscious observation brings about the final state of a quantum system, from Superpositioned (described in the book – near infinite number of possible states) to Wave Function Collapse (the final state, described in the book – along with alternate hypothesis). And then we describe that more frequent observation, to absolute sustained observation; freezes a system in time altogether.

Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle (HUP) is based on the concept that smaller slices of time, the smallest of which is a Planck interval of time, 10^-44 seconds, increases Uncertainty, and larger slices of time such as those observed on a macroscopic common basis increase Certainty. The QZE represents the HUP in the sense that constant observation represents smaller slices of time, greater Uncertainty, the system cannot achieve its final state, and larger slices, less frequent observation, represent greater Certainty, allowing a system to achieve its final state.

I refer to this phenomenon as the Eyes-on-eyes-off effect; eyes-on, constant observation, greater Uncertainty, freezes the flow of real common time for the observed system, eye-off, release attention, greater Certainty, the system collapses to its final state.

Why this happens has not been explained or speculated upon.

My description relates to the former ‘Information Paradox,’ an old argument by Hawking that information ‘falling into a Black Hole’ is destroyed, breaking the second law of thermodynamics, introducing a seeming paradox. Leanord Susskind successfully dismissed this issue by introducing the Holographic Principle in Physical Cosmology, also described in detail in the book, and incorrectly described as urban myth and misconception in a lot of popular ‘pulp.’ Information cannot ‘fall into a Black Hole,’ it merely forever approaches the Event Horizon, forever slowing down in time (time dilation) as it does so, but never, EVER, actually reaches the Event Horizon.

The book I present contains a new definition for ‘Consciousness’ that fulfills all of the principles within the acceptable formal definitions in Quantum Physics that ‘Consciousness’ must be infinite (eternal) in order to truly exist. The mathematical axioms supporting this are described in detail, and the requirement then is that ‘we,’ being infinite (eternal) cannot ‘fit’ inside of a finite system, this Universe, but must exist in an infinite domain. Again, this is defined in great detail.

Sustained observation, then, is unambiguously information ‘falling into’ an infinite domain. Rather than a ‘paradox’ occurring, time slows to a stop (dilates infinitely). The Quantum Zeno Effect, then, is this information ‘falling into’ an infinite domain, dilating real and measurable common time.

These principles and many others are described in great detail, the math is simplified but clear enough for the common laymen to understand, and actually doesn’t require math any more complicated than that which is presented.

Early medical work proves conclusively that the heart can be stopped entirely, flat line EEG, and then the patient resuscitated, that is the point of my studying such work. As for ‘spontaneous’ resuscitation, I asked medical staff if this ever occurred, and off the record, some have stated that ‘they’ (medical staff in ER settings) had observed the phenomenon, but could not publish such information because of its ‘phenomenal’ nature; peer reviewed literature does not like ‘phenomenon,’ particularly when trying to introduce a new medical procedure.

This type of work led to the possibility of performing such techniques in other procedures, such as the case with Pam Reynolds, who was in this flat line state for several hours and is very well medically documented.

‘Why’ spontaneous recovery occurs is unknown. In the US, the proper procedure that is not on the books for a patient who dies in the ER is to leave the patient in ‘the hallway’ for several hours, not in the cold room, because ‘spontaneous recovery’ from ‘death’ has been observed up to several hours later so many times the practice is justified; but cannot be at this time a written procedure because it is classified as a ‘phenomenon,’ one which designates a failure of the medical staff to correctly identify the patient’s status as dead or alive; not good. If the body is moved to a cold room, such ‘spontaneous recovery’ can occur up to two days later.

No one has any explanation for spontaneous recovery. Pim Van Lommel and Jeff Long have both written that the problem is prevalent and at least in part due to the fact that we have not correctly identified exactly what death is, or how long the process takes, and our methods and instruments are not adequate at this time to tell us whether or not a patient is truly dead; we have failed to define, detect, and quantify ‘death.’ I recommend both Lommel and Long’s work, although Lommel’s speculations are based on Penrose misidentification on Quantum Processes altogether, so I’d ignore that. (Penrose and Hammeroff have completely misunderstood Quantum processes altogether, and as you may have noted in the book, I’ve clarified their explanation as exactly opposite of the formal definitions in Quantum Physics).

Keep in mind that we have failed to define, detect, and quantify ‘life’ as well.

In the cases of my own NDEs, I often recovered to find my entire body cyanotic (black and blue, indicating total anoxia for several hours) and unable to move – pins and needles, very painful, for perhaps two hours, before I could move, and still see my skin as cyanotic. So, in ‘real’ time, they were not 1 minute or 4-minute episodes, they were prolonged. The fact that recovery was spontaneous is precedented in informal medical literature. Exactly what caused the ‘death’ to occur in the first place is unknown. It was not related to any known condition of the heart or brain. So I have no answer. It, however, spontaneously remitted (stopped happening) as swiftly as it came into my life; it just stopped happening, I have no idea why it started, no idea why it stopped, no idea what it was; neither does anyone else, and I am not a totally unique case, with the exception that in my case, the number of times it occurred exceeds anything reported either in the literature or anecdotally, although it is not likely I actually hold the world’s record.

So, unfortunately, I have no answer regarding the cause or the cure, even though I made a valiant effort to characterize it medically, no answer came.

The entire system of ‘life’ is designed so that you cannot break the rules and see outside of the box. Even when this occurs, the individual returns and reports and writes gibberish, as I’ve noted, they are forced by pressure from others to milk a description where none exists, and end up confabulating some nonsensical vision. The very act of being momentarily outside of the box immediately causes one to swiftly sift through bizarre cognitive belief systems that change at a rapid pace, preventing the individual from escaping the box. It is like a form of madness, and it can keep an individual locked up in this panorama of nonsensical visions for a lifetime. It is like a safety valve. Nonsensical cognitive beliefs have no effect on the infinite, eternal individual, nor the people who gather and listen to their sayings; which change on a nearly daily basis.

Just look at any NDE forum and see how confused and uncertain the NDErs are, as a perfect real time example that this is the case. They look for explanations, exchange strange ideas and subscribe to nonsensical information readily, only to reject it for something else in a few days time; sometimes even differing between morning and evening in the same day. Any attempt to describe this as being the case is met with extreme anger and discomfort, as I demonstrated by merely pointing out the obvious on many occasions in some of these places (web). Upon stating in one sentence why a thing is not correct, the gang becomes an angry mob. They are ‘addicted’ to rapidly changing psycho-spiritual speculation. It becomes a rush, a ‘feeling,’ the emotion of self-induced tiny ‘epiphanies’ that wear off as rapidly as cocaine, and require another dose the same day.

This is why I separate belief from Faith. This is why I am brutal with people who ‘sell’ cognitive psycho-spiritual belief systems. What you ‘believe’ is completely irrelevant, what you ‘do’ is imperative.

My hope is that by reading the Gospels (and only the Gospels) you will see that these things, Divine events, actually occurred, and are reported by a people who could not have had the intellect or precedence to invent such information. The idea of an infinite realm beyond our finite domain had never been described in any religion up until JC. However, people have since (since JC’s descriptions) reverse engineered many scriptures of ancient religions, such as Hinduism, and interpreted (misinterpreted) such descriptions as describing infinite realms (cultural contamination), where the original scriptures clearly refer to the physical cosmos, not an unobservable infinite domain beyond human perception. (This fact is the basis in theologic archeology and anthropology, and later picked up by ‘ancient astronaut’ theorists whose claim is that the ‘gods’ descended from the physical cosmos, not an infinite unobservable domain).

Fishermen did not ‘invent’ these ideas of an infinite, unobservable domain beyond human perception that was unprecedented in human culture altogether. The closest thing at the time was the Greek Hades, where existing as oneself for eternity was regarded as a form of eternal torment; such describes the human condition and self discontent with being ‘self.’ Thus, you see people inventing ‘collective consciousnesses’ and so on as an alternative to God and existing as a unique self for infinity, the ‘Hope’ of not being self any more, a demonstration of discontent with ‘self,’ and the hope of release from such.

The fact that Jesus is Lord is reflected in what only a person who knows exactly where they are from and where they are going says when dying, ‘turning to the man hanging on the cross to his left Jesus said to him, truly I tell you, today you shall be with me in paradise.’

I have had so many people ask me to describe my NDEs, since they were numerous, and I wrote that I avoided doing so because 1) they are not describable in human terms or comprehension, it is beyond the human frame of reference, so milking a description out of the indescribable is incorrect and causes confabulation only and 2) I deliberately used the NDEs of others in my book so as to avoid any personal agenda on my part, using those descriptions accepted in the peer reviewed scientific literature as meeting the Greyson Scale to high degree of confidence.

However, I will relay what I am comfortable with:

It is not possible to describe ‘paradise’ in human terms, because by definition, ‘paradise’ is a mythical concept beyond human comprehension or experience. But ‘paradise’ is where you are from, and it is where you are returning to, more correctly, it is where you are at this very moment. When I say that you are an ‘all knowing being by human standards’ I mean exactly that. The only difference between me and the others is having repeated this over a hundred times, and having the education to study it, rather than be ‘awestruck’ by something I already know, and having the education to write it down.

Communication is both verbal and non-verbal. There are groups, families, friends, colleagues, and such, who separate and come together throughout ages. There is no emotion; joy, love, faith, and such, are not emotions. There is no desperation or urgency, there is no consideration whatsoever that anything is other than infinite. There is no distance whatsoever between yourself and God, it is as though you are looking Him straight in the eye from zero distance, all the time, for infinity. We are not a great melting pot, a collective, we are individuals, and always have been and always will be, for infinity. There is no ‘energy’ from things outside of ourselves, such as crystals, moon rocks, or goofy ideological attachments to mundane objects. No one is an idiot, imagine everyone knowing everything, there is no debate, discussion, disagreement, because no one is uncertain of anything. If one person on the other side of infinity knows the answer, then so do you, but we are not ‘all one.’ Each of us are unique, without that uniqueness, there is no reason whatsoever for there being more than one being, thus, each and every unique being, from our sentient race, to the slightest bug, is important.

There is no regard for what we consider physical reality, it is merely accepted that it is a thing some people do, like taking a nap. No one ‘disappears’ from Heaven to be on Earth, you are always there, this human existence is so brief it doesn’t even occur. What seems like a ‘revelation’ to a physical handicapped (limited) mind here on earth is as common as breathing to an all knowing being, referring to yourself, and all life. There is no ‘here’ and ‘there,’ we never exist in this domain, we only observe it.

There is no need to describe these things because you never left there to begin with, you are only perceiving this place, it’s only an observation, not ‘real.’ There are no paradoxes of good and evil, evil is an intellectual construct of human thinking, even bugs and bacteria haven’t made this error. Consequently, there is no judgment, not even of yourself, there is only continued growth and expansion, to infinity, for all infinity.

There is no mythical boundary as is described and misunderstood in NDE accounts, some point of ‘no return,’ I don’t even know how people came up with that. There also is no ‘waiting line’ for people to be born, again, some archetype construct I have no idea how they dreamed it up, but so far from anything that actually is correct, I can only say it is gibberish dreamt up by the confused.

To try and describe the appearance of the place would be like trying to describe Earth, you will get a very different description from a person on the south pole than a person in Maui. There is a Cosmos, of expanse beyond human comprehension of size, age, and scope, with many generations of beings before us, and many will come after us; huge diversity, species, places, realms, worlds, lands, rooms… There is no way to describe an infinite variety of things each far beyond human comprehension.

The most disappointing thing I can possibly think of is returning to find oneself ‘alive’ here in this place, like returning to a really, really bad game show, and absolutely nothing else on, all I can do is try and distract myself and wait.

There is nothing to fear, only the most amazing things beyond all your hopes, dreams, and wildest concepts of paradise to look forward to, but it will not be an adventure; when you ‘leave’ aka, die, there will be no amazement, you will have known all along that this life was a ‘dream’ that you agreed to, it will be perfectly normal, returning to where you are from, or more correctly, snapping out of a bad dream and back to being ‘normal.’

As for my ‘hellish’ experiences, I could not resist the opportunity, since it was in my immediate grasp, to observe and study this ‘place’ that had been the mythological mainstay of all human fear since before we were homo-sapiens. I had to see it, I had to study it, I had to return to it, I had to know what it was; was it a ‘real’ place or imagined by cognitive processes?

It turns out to be a type of construct similar to a dreamscape in human terms. It is so temporary, fleeting, it is no wander that people who have had experiences of this ‘place’ had such fleeting glimpses that they come back filled with fear and confusion, mistaking such a ‘place’ for being ‘real,’ and by ‘real’ I mean that eternal place of damnation that our unconditionally loving God damns us to for infinity as a result of breaking some set of intangible rules incomprehensible in human terms; guilt is not possible, nor can be shame or condemnation. These are all artifacts of human thinking in limited, finite human terms.

The net result is that we are not powerless or lacking in authority, as many fundamentalists have provoked this idea as a reason for their failures to commit divine events, such as healing. They fail, flip through scripture they are not prepared to comprehend, since it is not cognitive information, and try and reverse engineer something written down as a description of why they failed: such as sin, guilt, condemnation. It’s not possible that this is the case, if it were, all life would be excluded, and the knowledge of God, the Messiah, everything is a pointless waste.

My study of the structure of this physical universe from being outside of it always seemed – “oh, that’s obvious,” at the time, but upon ‘re-entry’ as I have come to call it, is not so obvious, and takes hundreds of pages of scribbled math to describe. Oddly, the men at the turn of the early 20th century had discovered much about its form, I don’t know the exact mechanisms of knowing this other than they came here to do exactly that, they therefore did so. That is why I refer back to the founders of Quantum Physics and ‘dismiss’ modern alternative attempts at explanations (that don’t work), rather simply, I might add. My job has been and is to get things back on track.

All I can say in human terms (use this as a visual meditation) is that if you can imagine going through a long and gentle swirling tunnel of light that is both infinitely large yet infinitely small at the same time, and emerging into the most breath taking scene beyond the human ability to imagine, absolutely inundated by joy and the ‘blasting’ Light and Love of God; as though you were the only being in all existence, and He is inundating you, personally, with what cannot possibly be described – then maybe you can just begin to imagine a brief moment in that place; but it goes on for infinity, and increases without bound. It isn’t as though His attention is divided among the googolplexes of living things throughout all of creation; it is truly as though you and God are the only two beings in all of existence, and yet, you can sense them all, trillions of googolplexes of beings, a completely innumerable quantity of life that is experiencing the same breath taking paradise as yourself for all of infinity, and increasing without bound; all knowing; all seeing.

That is what your death will be.

We are the eyes, ears, and hands of God in His exploration of all possibilities, which is what we are, that is what I call ‘sentience,’ beings whose purpose is to explore infinite possibilities for infinity. And ‘angels’ as we have come to call them, are all those beings who support our role as such (exploring the only possible remaining infinite question; what is God not?) in every necessary way. They can be ‘invisible,’ that is, beyond the grasp of human perception, or ‘solid and real,’ but taking human form is, I think, not the case, at least not any more.

The Messiah is the first being God created other than Himself. All life, in every realm seen and unseen interacts directly with Him, even if they rant that it is not so, it’s all part of playing out our roles. That’s why I say ‘belief’ is nonsensical. Belief is merely playing out one’s role. Faith is staring into the eye of the Messiah, in full view, real, not believed.

Having been in neuroscience research for almost 25 years now, I see a lot of the following: patient goes into doctor’s office, says, doctor, I am depressed. Doctor writes a prescription for antidepressant, patient gets worse, patient stops taking medication, patient starts seeking “Alternative Medicine,” the modern equivalent of Voodoo.

If you are bipolar, shizotype, or any other disorder other than depression, including even hyperthyroid, and take antidepressants, you will get much worse. The warning is on the side of the bottle and on the insert, that’s a pharmacological fact. The problem started with you telling the doctor your diagnosis, not modern medicine. You are not qualified to make a self-diagnosis.

The people who ‘sell’ alternative medicine capitalize on this, they know the misdiagnosis rate (due to patient error) is almost 50%, and want a chunk of that multi-BILLION dollar market, and they are not going to let on to the fact that they know the problem is with the initial doctor office visit – they want cash, now. And they will sell you trinkets, mental meditations, the modern ouija board, anything (other than a qualified, certified, therapeutic hypnosis together with proper medical treatment).

A little story: Why is Scientology, Dianetics, so successful? The reason is that the process engages the individual in a 24/7 video game in their head that treats the world as a real world ‘game’ engaging the subject in a system that has levels and immediate rewards, the individual is engaged in the 24/7 game and is even rewarded for ‘believing’ it is real, real time rewards that increase as you ‘believe’ the game is real, in real time, increasing pleasure, depleting one’s focus from their physical status – i.e., a meditation by engaging the subject, that actually works. Regardless of the fact that the method was trimmed over a lifetime by a failed science fiction writer, it works, because it engages the subject. I don’t practice it, nor advocate it, but I see real time results.

Compare that to my religion, Christianity, and you get no reward in this lifetime, no promise of reward, only a promise that upon death, at which point the game is over and you can change nothing, you will be faced with judgment according to a set of rules that was beyond human comprehension while you were alive, and you will either get door A, paradise, or door B, infinity in agony beyond human comprehension – by an all loving God.

The ouija board and Scientology are continuously being revamped by people who want a slice of that multi-BILLION dollar market in mental health.

If you go to a doctor and tell him/her your self-diagnosis, a doctor is somewhat obligated by medical law to comply with your self-diagnosis, even though you know nothing of medicine aside from a search on a search engine that by definition sells the highest ranking to the highest bidder. Do yourself a favor – if you are depressed, anxious, confused, frightened, etc., go to a real doctor, and let the doctor figure it out, that why they get paid the big bucks. The medicines we’ve worked on over the past decades work, if you put the right one in the right person. Put the wrong one in and you got trouble. Play with ouija boards and staring at crystals will do the following: all of the people in your family, your work life, if you can keep one, your friends, etc., are suffering as a result of your illness and the stress it puts on them, the chaos in home and at work, causing even financial instability and uncertainty.

Be responsible, be accountable, go to a doctor, don’t diagnose yourself.

Quantum Physics, Near Death Experiences, Eternal Consciousness, Religion, and the Human Soul is absolutely brutal to the individual’s cognitive belief systems. This is necessary, because upon close examination of our own individual belief system(s) we find that this is not a state we have become or ‘evolved’ to, it is a place we were escorted to by a variety of other humans.

There are books literally pouring off of the shelves discussing quantum this and quantum that, without a single author being a physicist. Consequently, when I look at what the authors have written; I use the word ‘gibberish’ rather fluently throughout the book, unfortunately, I have not found a better way of saying it, it’s rough, and seemingly confrontational, but you have to ask yourself the question, ‘if a person ‘hijacks’ a vocabulary word from science, without knowing its meaning, and assigns any meaning they want to it to describe some personal agenda, and I have read it and been mislead to this place in the middle of nowhere, is it improper for someone who actually knows the science to point this out clearly and unambiguously?’

The book has been in the top 40 ‘in the world’ in Quantum Theory for a solid year now. I have been told that I have ‘alienated’ individuals who subscribe to these bizarre belief systems (which change with rapid wide and sweeping changes for any given individual) based on urban myth and misconception, along with the authors who push this material. My next question is: ‘how can you ‘alienate’ someone who is standing in the middle of nowhere, lost, selling bad directions?’

So I teach the subject of Quantum Theory in its original form as determined by the founders of Quantum Physics, even prior to the speculative nature of mathematical theoretical physics. My mother-in-law can understand and describe back to me Quantum Superposition, Non-locality, the Holographic Principle, and so on with greater accuracy and fluency than any of the lay authors who write about these subjects because she read and understood the material in the book. She is NOT a physicist.

The topics described throughout the book are in the title. If you do not want your cognitive belief system torn down and experience Faith, do not read this book. This is a dangerous book. I don’t say that to be ‘provocative.’ I say that because at some point, usually about 2/3 the way through the text, you will in fact realize that your current belief system is a conglomerate of the speculations of others, a melting pot of fantasies of other people, and it will require a complete ‘reprogramming.’ You will recognize the symptom of this because in your internal dialogue you will be constantly arguing with ‘me’ in your head.

Fortunately, a true working definition for ‘consciousness’ suitable for Quantum Theory, the philosophies and Religions of Man is provided, along with Faith; a completely different state of being than a ‘belief system.’

WHY AM I SO DISCONTENT WITH ORGANIZED RELIGION?

You’ve been exposed to it at some level all of your life. You want answers, but have found none. You have looked at the mainstream Religions of Man and for whatever reason, the answer is not there, for you, and may affect the way you perceive others who do find the answer there, typically not in a good light.

Regardless of how much or little you know of Hard Science, you have never seen anyone present an answer there.

The idea that the idea can be found among Philosophy is in direct violation of the vocabulary word – Philosophy, which states: ‘Since I do not know the answer, there exists no being in this universe who is capable of knowing the answer,’ and somehow that principle automatically became an axiom, accepted as such to comfort ourselves and each other as we wander around in circles.

The ancient Greeks, actually, the ancient Ileans, saw existing as oneself for eternity as definitive punishment, and from that we see the myth of Hades as a place and a god of eternal torment, whose exit is guarded by a three-headed angry dog. The image of ‘self’ so profoundly discontent throughout recorded human history that in modern times we have invented a ‘collective consciousness’ to melt back into upon death, losing our identity – exactly the same thinking as existing as oneself for infinity as definitive eternal torment, the mythological source of Hell – being oneself for infinity.

What if a real physicist, as a result of several NDEs, came back with an understanding of our infinite nature, how we got here, what ‘here’ is, and what we are doing here; and could explain it in terms of irrefutable mathematical axioms you learned in grade-school?

What if you are not who or what you think you are, Bob, Alice? What if you are an infinite being, by human standards, all knowing, having created Bob or Alice as a vehicle of perception, to explore the only remaining infinite question God can ask – what am I not? And the exploration of the question, what is God not, is the reason for all of the seeming paradoxes in human suffering – but you are not here, here does not truly exist as anything more than a construct, a perception, and is not truly happening – a definition for consciousness that resolves every paradox in science and Religion…

And if I can show you the grade school math that defines this, even if you hate math, moving from ideological and speculative argument, all you have seen to date, none of which includes a definitive answer, to mathematical axiom, math you learned in grade-school…That you are an infinite being, by human standards all knowing, not existing ‘here,’ ‘here’ does not truly exist as anything more than a construct, but standing at this very moment in the very breathe of God – even if you do not ‘believe’ in God – not knowing that ‘belief’ is the very mechanism you designed to make Faith nearly impossible; making it all seem as though it were real; seemingly separate from God, finite, even powerless – when you are exactly the opposite…

NEAR DEATH AND OTHER ESOTERIC FORUMS

Stay out of NDE forums and other forums related to any esoteric subject.

I just got suckered, once again, into writing a lengthy reply to someone who had a sad story to tell in a forum, then -!BAM! up goes the direct link to his co-authored book.

When I replied stating it was inappropriate to be selling wares in a place filled with vulnerable people, particularly when targeting their sympathy – HE STARTED SHOUTING FROM THE ROOF TOPS…every ten minutes for hours, another lengthy note on how ‘evil’ I was, never neglecting to include that link to his co-authored book.

I am constantly seeing people who have books and courses to sell showing up in these forums and pushing their products. Coming from a highly regulated FDA, DHS, and even CIA and Nuclear Regulatory Agency controlled environments I find it highly inappropriate for people to show up in such forums, where people who face death, disease, and chronic illness linger in hope of finding some intangible cure, and sell their wares.

Rule number 1: These people will typically show up, introduce a topic, and get people chatting. Then they drop the bomb by providing the direct link to their product, be it a book, course, whatever. IF there were any established value to these you would be able to get a prescription for it. If you point this out, they shout from the roof tops and cry foul, rallying everyone like you were back in high school.

Rule number 2: If the concept is ‘mind over matter,’ than the matter your mind has most control over is in your own hands. If your own hands are not affecting positive change in others via your own tangible hands, than your mind is not going to affect positive change in you or anyone else via some less tangible process.

Rule number 3: If the healing or change in question is an intangible route via any of the mainstream Religions of Man, since I cannot actually recommend any human in particular I have definitive trust in, I recommend practicing laying hands on and praying over others to become a vehicle of healing. There is no ‘secret’ knowledge to it, if you do it, you will see nothing happen at first, but eventually, like learning a musical instrument, you will get ‘good at it,’ and people will heal, including yourself. Do it in the name of God, or the Messiah, in which case ‘doing it in the name of’ literally translates to ‘I am authorized by God, Jesus, the Messiah, etc., to do this.’ You cannot authorize yourself. If you do not ‘believe’ in God or the Messiah, you’re normal, doing at least as well as all the ‘believers’ who struggle to ‘believe,’ and your ‘belief’ doesn’t change anything; your Faith, however, can. Faith has no description, it has to be experienced – so you go out and pray over people, regardless of what you ‘believe’ or fail to ‘believe,’ seeming to fail at first, eventually succeeding; that is the Big Secret. At the end of that, you will not need to ‘believe’ anything; it will be tangible and real.

If it is healing you seek by some intangible process then go out and start laying hands on people, regardless of witnessing yourself seem to fail at first, but continue without ceasing, and it will happen. There is no secret, other than to use God’s name or the name of the Messiah, regardless of what you ‘believe’ or fail to ‘believe.’

QUANTUM ACTIVISM

Ever since Physicist Amit Goswami coined this term, people have jumped on it to push their personal agenda. I regard Goswami as a Physicist of the highest caliber of the highest vision. However, his audience is often composed of people who have an agenda of their own.

Think clearly on the following definitions:

Unconditional Love does not automatically translate to zero accountability, nor does it automatically translate to unconditional respect. My respect is quite conditional, it requires one to be personally accountable for the words that come out of their mouths and their actions; by actions I am referring to speaking loquacious words and doing another thing.

I am not comparing myself to Jesus, but I learned the following example from watching Jesus in action: Whenever he would blast the priests of the time for concocting their man made religious belief systems, the priests would regard such as personal attack and grow angry and rally together, as apposed to one-on-one, indicating a recognition of personal accountability, try to rally the crowds to validate their position, and seek to destroy him. They used the word ‘blasphemy,’ when it was clear that Jesus was not condemning God, but men who had concocted nonsensical ideas regarding God. The word ‘blasphemy’ was chosen by the priests to shift the accountability from their selves. You can find the same exact behavior in forums and chat rooms where people ‘discuss’ their concocted belief systems.

Stand your ground. You cannot ‘alienate’ someone who is standing in the middle of nowhere completely lost wandering around in circles shifting their cognitive beliefs in rapid and wide and sweeping changes. ‘Alienate’ pre-supposes someone who is standing in a known position.

‘Belief’ is irrelevant. ‘Knowledge is irrelevant. I constantly use the example: ‘People ‘believed’ the world was the center of the universe, the ‘knew’ the world was the center of the universe. They did not doubt that the world was the center of the universe; they had no model by which to doubt, every human focused on that singular belief, the Earth not being the center of the universe was completely beyond the human frame of reference altogether. And still, the structure of the universe did not change at all.

Pray over the sick, yes, perfect strangers, even as you ‘feel’ embarrassment. Feed them, clothe them, comfort them, unyielding to personal loss of time and effort, even when they spite you and resent you for trying. As a medical researcher in 25 years of highly regulated medical research environments I can tell you that at first you will lay hands on the sick and nothing will happen. But eventually, I started seeing things that as a Physicist with 25 years in medical research I can tell you are simply medically impossible. And then it begins to happen more often, then more often still.

But like learning a new instrument, it takes years of practice to achieve success; thus, those first ‘bad sounding’ moments are not failures, they are merely part of a process that leads to success, and it is not possible to read volumes such that you will sound like a virtuoso on your first attempt.

Sending your money off to charity is functional, but is not sufficient; you need to be hands on. If you have no food to give or clothes, etc., then comfort those who require it, not with words of gibberish beliefs and empty promises, not with any words that reflect your cognitive beliefs. This again, requires practice, to remove your personal agenda from your actions and words.

‘Thinking positive’ is also cognitive gibberish. ‘Thinking’ did not change the position of the Earth with respect to the rest of the structure of the universe, there is no indication that any other form of ‘thinking’ will do otherwise.

My dog, Keats, a simple (by human standards) dog actually did all of those things the Messiah asked/told us to do, every day, to people; and regardless of your belief system, he did all of those things obvious to man that represent pure unconditional love. Why then do we sit around discussing, elaborating, wandering, arguing, debating, and 'chatting' about it; when it is clear that a dog - and I made the book as a permanent record of him, did it without saying a single word?

Keats, who was licensed as a service dog, could not so much as walk through a market or mall without pulling at least one person out of a wheel chair, or lighting up the eyes of the handicap, always seeking the old lady with the walker, with absolutely no motive of personal gain, even ideologically, in a way that far exceeds all the talk and chatter I’ve heard from people debating, discussing, and 'chatting' about pure unconditional love; he actually did it. As the apostle Paul said, love without works is like the tinkling of a bell, just a noise.

If my dog spiritually outperformed all the chatters, discussers, and debaters, that re-defines the human condition.

Q: Why do people ‘see’ archtypes during an NDE?

The reason people ‘see’ things they can relate to in NDEs is not because that is what they want to ‘see’ or can relate to, but what they are capable of remembering with their cognitive minds. The experience has no human frame of reference and is not within the human experience. As a result, there is no way for this information to be recalled unless it can be interpreted and understood by cognitive ideas that the ‘mind’ that exists within the human frame of experience can comprehend. Thus they see Jesus, Buddha, dead relatives, etc., whatever they are familiar with in their cognitive lives. What they are actually ‘seeing’ is unknown, both to them and us; they report what they can relate to; they only are capable of ‘recall’ within their own human frame of reference, and it must be tangible.

Q: Why do you (WJB) keep returning to the same exact spot during each NDE?

The reason I return to the same spot is because although it seems like days or years may pass in this palpable reality, the equivalent of microseconds has passed there, if it is correct to think of time at all. I am not ‘seeing’ different places because I am still on the very same spot.

By ‘place’ I am not referring to a palpable four-dimensional space-time, but a timeless domain, there is no vocabulary for these things.

Q: What is the purpose of the ‘life review?’

The ‘life review is not a ‘review,’ it is merely the passage from a system governed by forward asymmetric linear time to a timeless domain. The net result is that one perceives all of the events in this ‘reality’ governed by linear time as occurring in a single instant, yet separated. There is no ‘review.’ There is no ‘judgment’ because the process is misunderstood as an archetypical ‘review,’ because of our primordial relationship with reward and punishment. There is no ‘review,’ merely a perception of space-time events not separated by time. I know because I experienced the phenomenon enough times to study it closely, as a physicist.

First look a few examples of NDE accounts from the IANDS web site:

Bright Oversized Sun

I found myself standing on a hill of beautiful flowers and tall grass. The day was very bright and sunny. There was no pain and I felt wonderful and free. I had never been so happy in my life. I remember just feeling extreme happiness and contentment. The weather was perfect; the sky was bright blue with no clouds. The hill was covered in wild yellow and white daisies and tall green grass. The grass and the flowers looked so pretty and fresh and so bright and clean. To my right and up a little was an incredibly bright large sun; it took up almost a third of my field of vision. I bent over a little at my waist to see what my dress looked like. I could see my hands holding out the skirt of the dress; it was a beautiful bright pleated skirt with yellow and white daisies on a bed of tall grass. I thought it looked just like the setting on the hill that I was standing on. I loved the dress and I was so happy with the feel of the crisp bright pleats folded on the skirt.

My view at that time was limited to my hands, the skirt and my legs in the grass. I could not see my bare feet because the grass was too tall. There was little flashing white things floating everywhere in the air. I thought they were the white fluffy part of dandelions blowing everywhere. My hands looked like they did when I was younger and thinner. The time I spent standing on the hill didn't seem like a very long time, just a minute or so. I will always remember the beauty and intense feeling of happiness.

If this is Death, It's Wonderful

…and the next thing I knew I was looking down at my body. I felt no fear looking at myself lying there. I remember clearly saying if this is death, it's wonderful. I recall some kind of people surrounding me in a circle like form, but I couldn't make them out. I felt comfortable with them. There was a light behind them in the distance. I remember saying this is wonderful and then being told that I couldn't stay.

I Want to Go Back

Some time during all of this, I found myself standing among beautiful, gently rolling green hills, a pasture of sorts. The grass was natural yet perfect. Across the pasture were large oak trees, the most perfect and inviting shade trees found in a storybook. The sky was a lovely, absolutely clear shade of blue—somewhere between Robin's egg blue and Crayola blue. The air was perfectly crisp with no hint of humidity or dust; a gentle breeze touched my skin. I could hear an extremely pleasant and soothing natural chorus of insects and birds. I thought, "This is perfect. I want to stay here forever. I have never felt this wonderful!" I felt absolute clarity, peace, and love. Thank God because that scene and feeling are imprinted so strongly in me that I can recall the experience at will.

THESE NEXT TWO ARE MY FAVORITES:

Walking to Heaven

…that I screamed three times for her to stop, and then insisted that the doctor sedate me before trying again. He agreed and the next thing I remember was Jesus walking me to Heaven. We came out of the darkness into a very bright, white room. I could see the white wall, but I could also see beyond it. There were rolling green fields, trees, blue sky and people. Some people were walking around, some sitting, some conversing, and some reading. I "heard" Jesus tell me that I could go on or I could stay. I understood that he was saying I could go to heaven now or I could stay on Earth longer. I gave a big sigh and told him, "Well, Lord, if it was just me, I am so tired of pain that I would go now, but my husband and son still need me, so I guess I better stay." I knew that he smiled and he said, "okay". I woke up and there was the surgeon in my face. He said to me, "Whew! Welcome back! That was close!" Later, I learned from my husband that they had told him 30 more minutes and they would not have been able to save me.

Oneness is Reality

I was in a hospital bed in a clinical room that wasn't solid. To my left stood my yoga teacher's wife, Bha, who had died three years previously of breast cancer. Bha was talking animatedly with a blue light being; he was tall and the shape of a man, but he had no features. A neon turquoise blue light outlined his shape and he had lights moving on the inside of his shape like sunlight playing on water. Bha and the light being were laughing a lot.

***

Why do these people seem to suddenly find themselves in these places during an NDE? Has anyone thought that through? They may or may not experience ‘The Tunnel,’ but in the absence of or at the end of such ‘Tunnel’ individuals find themselves in these environments, quite suddenly, and altogether unexpected, and most of all – resembles no archetype fitting expectation or imagination. Although one can argue that some of the elements are recognizable, such as a field, grass, etc., the situation, the intensity, the beauty, the fineness of detail and heightened color are not part of the human experience, otherwise the NDEr would describe them as being mundane.

In my own NDEs, I consistently found myself in the same exact place, on the side of a green hill, next to a river, lying on the hill on the same exact spot, with a few individuals looking over me, attentively, as you might watch over someone in a hospital bed. And although days or weeks may have passed between NDEs, it was clear that mere seconds had passed in that place.

My personal experiences with NDEs both in and out of hospital settings has made me aware that the reason I keep returning to that place is because that is where I am at this very moment. Very much the same as we experience being in ‘places’ in our dreams but consistently wake up in our beds, in the most rudimentary definition of ‘real’ we are not actually in those places in our dreams, but lying in our beds, perceiving those places.

Last night I did a lucid dream experiment purely for the purpose of writing this today. I drove a bicycle into a wall in a mall, the inertia threw me forward and off the bike into the wall, it hurt, I tumbled over the bike, and felt all of its metal parts bruising my body as I fell off the bike. I went swimming, the water was wet and warm, I could feel how wet it was. I turned in circles and felt the viscous water running though my fingers. I asked a fisherman to toss his bucket of chum (fat from fish to attract other fish) into the water next to me and felt the greasiness of it between my fingers. It smelled like raunchy fish.

The American Indian Shamans practice lucid dreaming not to alter dream content, (they say doing so constantly will lead to madness) but to be constantly aware that one is dreaming, thus upon awakening, over many years come to fully comprehend that we are in another level of a dream – as the American Indian Shaman tradition describes it.

I have had one consistent question coming from people who read my book describing quantum physics and so on, namely, ‘Am I speaking in metaphors when I say we are not here at this very moment?’ No I am not speaking in metaphors. I am on that hill, at this very moment. I am not going to die and be magically transformed into some intangible ball of energy and ‘go to Heaven.’ I am there at this very instant.

There is no paradox, ‘If there is a God why is there so much suffering?’ You are not here, it is not happening, no paradox exists. When Jesus used the terms, ‘The Kingdom of Heaven is upon you,’ and ‘The Kingdom of God is within you,’ I do not think he was speaking in metaphors. I believe this is the key to ‘You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free.’

Being an infinite being (step 1 or it’s all pointless) in the Kingdom of God at this very instant changes everything.

Prophecy: The most misconceived idea in humanity. On a 5th grade philosophical level, some argue it describes future events, some argue that they have already occurred, the next question is, ‘What are you going to do with that information?’ If you use such information to change your behavior and the outcome, then it is not a description of the future, not a prophecy.

Prophecy is a description of a system that keeps repeating itself. If you comprehend that definition of prophecy, then you understand that it is a description of a means of getting out of such a loop.

There is no hierarchy in the Kingdom of God, where you are standing at this very instant. No lieutenants, apostles, saints - you answer directly to the Messiah.

You are second in command in this universe. Live as though you are second in command in this universe. Miracles are commanded into being, not 'asked for.'

Peace of Mind: Near-Death Experiences Now Found to Have Scientific Explanations
Seeing your life pass before you and the light at the end of the tunnel, can be explained by new research on abnormal functioning of dopamine and oxygen flow.
By Charles Q. Choi | September 12, 2011 | 115


EU
Near-death experiences are often thought of as mystical phenomena, but research is now revealing scientific explanations for virtually all of their common features. The details of what happens in near-death experiences are now known widely—a sense of being dead, a feeling that one's "soul" has left the body, a voyage toward a bright light, and a departure to another reality where love and bliss are all-encompassing.
Approximately 3 percent of the U.S. population says they have had a near-death experience, according to a Gallup poll. Near-death experiences are reported across cultures, with written records of them dating back to ancient Greece. Not all of these experiences actually coincide with brushes with death—one study of 58 patients who recounted near-death experiences found 30 were not actually in danger of dying, although most of them thought they were. [one study is absolutely never accepted as a precedence for reporting data, the methods, materials, and procedures in Dobb’s paper are not described, the criteria for ‘in danger of dying’ is not at all established or described, the entire paper is speculative and actually contradicts the hard data – the clinically accepted Greyson scale for the NDE was not at all used or referred to, instead, any reference to any conscious thought during the ‘study’ was counted as an NDE].

Recently, a host of studies has revealed potential underpinnings for all the elements of such experiences. [There is no host of studies that have reveled any such thing in any remote sense of the word]. "Many of the phenomena associated with near-death experiences can be biologically explained," says neuroscientist Dean Mobbs, at the University of Cambridge's Medical Research Council Cognition and Brain Sciences Unit. Mobbs and Caroline Watt at the University of Edinburgh detailed this research online August 17in Trends in Cognitive Sciences. [In this paper Dobb’s ‘research’ does not in any way follow Good Clinical Practice or procedures, none of which are described, there is no reference to the actual data or how it was obtained or where or when and under what circumstances – in short, there is no ‘research].

For instance, the feeling of being dead is not limited to near-death experiences—patients with Cotard or "walking corpse" syndrome hold the delusional belief that they are deceased [Cotard syndrome was described in the 19th century and was considered and although rarely brought up today is a definitive state of psychosis where the individual is unable to recognize features in reality and does not remit without anti-psychotic medication; NDErs do not exhibit permanent unremitting psychosis, and even attempting to make a connection to a 19th century definition of psychosis is an embarrassing moment in science] . This disorder has occurred following trauma, such as during advanced stages of typhoid and multiple sclerosis, and has been linked with brain regions such as the parietal cortex and the prefrontal cortex—"the parietal cortex is typically involved in attentional processes, and the prefrontal cortex is involved in delusions observed in psychiatric conditions such as schizophrenia," Mobbs explains. [The areas associated with Cotard syndrome are NOT these areas of the brain Dobb’s claims, but associated with the amygdala and limbic systems of the midbrain, not affecting higher functioning areas of the prefrontal cortex – Dobb’s statement is either complete incompetence or right out deliberately misleading]. Although the mechanism behind the syndrome remains unknown, one possible explanation is that patients are trying to make sense of the strange experiences they are having.

Out-of-body experiences are also now known to be common during interrupted sleeppatterns that immediately precede sleeping or waking. For instance, sleep paralysis, or the experience of feeling paralyzed while still aware of the outside world, is reported in up to 40 percent of all people and is linked with vivid dreamlike hallucinations that can result in the sensation of floating above one's body. A 2005 study found that out-of-body experiences can be artificially triggered by stimulating the right temporoparietal junction in the brain, suggesting that confusion regarding sensory information can radically alter how one experiences one's body. [Stimulating any region of the brain to experience a sensation is absolutely no indication that the brain is the cause of a sensation: for instance, I can stimulate areas along the back of the brain to feel the sensation of heat on your hand, that does not mean a real hot cup of coffee does not exist. This ridiculously childish overlooked fact is a mechanism biologists and the naïve constantly use to proliferate gibberish concepts to a lay audience who they suspect do not know any better. Furthermore, the OOB at the edge of sleep is not discounted simply because it is associated with sleep. The OOB may be an integral part of sleep].

A variety of explanations might also account for reports by those dying of meeting the deceased. Parkinson's disease patients, for example, have reported visions of ghosts, even monsters. The explanation? Parkinson's involves abnormal functioning of dopamine, a neurotransmitter that can evoke hallucinations. [The amount of dopamine necessary to induce hallucinations is in fact deadly. Dopamine levels have never been measured in a Parkinon’s patient at the moment he/she is hallucinating – the dopamine connection is rather impossible and purely speculative, and is in direct opposition to what is known to be possible and live to tell about it]. And when it comes to the common experience of reliving moments from one's life, one culprit might be the locus coeruleus, a midbrain region that releases noradrenaline, a stress hormone one would expect to be released in high levels during trauma. The locus coeruleus is highly connected with brain regions that mediate emotion and memory, such as the amygdala and hypothalamus. [This explanation requires, by definition, that every patient taking the antidepressant Wellbutrin, for instance, would constantly be experiencing a ‘life review.’ Physical connection and placement to the amygdala and hypothalamus is in no case precedented in the literature to affect the locus coeruleus, nor is the locus precedented in the literature to spontaneously produce ‘life review’ processes. The entire explanation is scientific gibberish.]

In addition, research now shows that a number of medicinal and recreational drugs can mirror the euphoria often felt in near-death experiences, such as the anesthetic ketamine, which can also trigger out-of-body experiences and hallucinations. Ketamine affects the brain's opioid system, which can naturally become active even without drugs when animals are under attack, suggesting trauma might set off this aspect of near-death experiences, Mobbs explains. [The research in ketamine in connection to NDEs and OOBs was abandoned ten years ago as a complete dead end, and established in the peer reviewed scientific literature as having no possible connection, based on actual clinical values of the established Greyson scale].
Finally, one of the most famous aspects of near-death hallucinations is moving through a tunnel toward a bright light. Although the specific causes of this part of near-death experiences remain unclear, tunnel vision can occur when blood and oxygen flow is depleted to the eye, as can happen with the extreme fear and oxygen loss that are both common to dying. [This dying eye explanation is an urban myth I discounted at great length as having absolutely no data whatsoever related to the claim, is actually impossible using today’s technology to detect, measure, or validate in any way, and as speculation that is in no uncertain terms biologically impossible for the structure of the eye, or associated brain region].

Altogether, scientific evidence suggests that all features of the near-death experience have some basis in normal brain function gone awry. Moreover, the very knowledge of the lore regarding near-death episodes might play a crucial role in experiencing them—a self-fulfilling prophecy. Such findings "provide scientific evidence for something that has always been in the realm of paranormality," Mobbs says. "I personally believe that understanding the process of dying can help us come to terms with this inevitable part of life."
One potential obstacle to further research on near-death experiences will be analyzing them experimentally, says cognitive neuroscientist Olaf Blanke at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne in Switzerland, who has investigated out-of-body experiences. Still, "our work has shown that this can be done for out-of-body experiences, so why not for near-death-experience-associated sensations?"

[This ‘conclusion’ is absolutely impossible using our current technology to either detect, measure, quantify, or validate by any means, and stating it is unprofessional, irresponsible, and in direct contradiction to any acceptable Good Clinical Practice and Reporting as established and required by FDA protocol. In short, the author and interviewees have made themselves a complete embarrassment to responsible scientific clinical procedure and reporting.]

My role in this life is not to ‘spread sunshine’ on those who misrepresent information to suit personal agenda and mislead others by confounding them with vocabulary the lay audience does not understand. If the question then becomes: ‘who died and left me king?’ My answer is as follows:

I died, repeatedly, and I am second in command to ‘The King.’ If the Atheists need to lie and mislead to proliferate their personal agenda of feeling the need to ‘cease to exist’ I will describe their failure to the extent of embarrassing them brutally – I am more knowledgeable in these subjects than they can hope to achieve and I will not be gentile or politically correct.

DISCUSSION

Most people are put off by Keats in the book, and consequently put it down and don't comprehend the message - Keats, a simple (by human standards) dog actually did all of those things the Messiah asked/told us to do, every day, to people; and regardless of your belief system, he did all of those things obvious to man that represent pure unconditional love. Why then do we sit around discussing, elaborating, wandering, arguing, debating, and 'chatting' about it; when it is clear that a dog - and I made the book as a permanent record of him, did it without saying a single word?

Keats, who was licensed as a service dog, could not so much as walk through a market or mall without pulling at least one person out of a wheel chair, or lighting up the eyes of the handicap in a way that far exceeds all the gibberish I’ve heard from people debating, discussing, and 'chatting' about pure unconditional love; he actually did it. As the apostle Paul said, love without works is like the tinkling of a bell, just a noise.

If my dog outperformed all the chatters, discussers, and debaters, that re-defines a lot about - a lot.

This is why he came into my life. This is why I wrote about him.

As for those who cannot comprehend the eternal nature of a species other than human, my obvious response is that you most certainly have not thought your way through this one. What about ‘aliens?’ What about man prior to Homo-sapiens? At which point during our evolution do we become eternal beings?

These questions are gibberish because the Homo-sapiens only club concept of immortality is nonsense; there is no paradox.

And if you are a Bible toting type with fundamentalist views of Homo-sapiens only, what about John the Baptist’s words: ‘Do not be content saying that we are sons of Abraham, I tell you, God can raise any one of these stones and make them sons of Abraham.’

And if you have been spiritually out performed by a dog, then perhaps it is time to stop debating, discussing, wandering, arguing, and chatting, take an inventory of your work, and get off your duff and ‘do the work.’

The entire scientific portion of the book is merely a description of reality, validating your ‘self’ as an eternal being. What you do in this finite reality, as an infinite being in a finite stage is The Game. To get to the next level, you have to do the work, it’s not a cognitive game, it’s purely dependent on doing the work.
