In a talk that ranges from evolutionary biology to modern physics, and draws from Eastern and Western philosophical traditions, Neil Theise, Professor of Pathology and Medicine at Mount Sinai, delves into various expressions of the nature of reality and concludes that it is because different questions are asked that different answers are given. He suggests that the universe exists because it has to, and concludes with a koan that if boundaries are where we give and receive, what is compassion in the realm of the boundless?

looks like you made it downstairs...
Wow. I will definitely be following Neil's work. I've never seen non duality and science explained so well and rigorously. Fantastic work.
This entire talk inspired me to write my song Realm of the Boundless
I'm fascinated to hear so many themes here that also come up in TH-cam talks by near-death experiencers (NDErs) Many have no special education or spiritual training, but when they recover they say things like "it's all one," and "everything is conscious, even plants, even rocks," and "I didn't realize that it's all about MATH" and especially, "no, THAT is real, and THIS is all like a dream or movie." I'm so grateful for this talk and will watch it again and again! 🙏🏼
Semantics, really.

I arrived at many of the same conclusions over the last two years or so and was worried that I was the only one who thought of reality in this context. It’s so comforting to know that there are other learned folks that have contemplated the meaning of it all in the same terms!

It's so good I had to listen to it twice! I love Neale's other presentations, too. He's in an amazing crossroad amd has a holy view of things.... geatitude and recognition to him 💖💖💖🙏🙏🙏
wonderful clarity, thank you!
A beautifully delivered talk. Rich, insightful. Thank you for introducing me to Neil Theise.
I love this video! I really like how he shows the parallels between religions and then goes into the science. I know he was pressed for time but I would have loved to hear him expand his reason on why the universe exists. Vedic science explains that the there is this constant oscillation between SAT and ASAT.
Wow, just the other day, I did a mapping similar to this shown on 18:46, but I lined it up a little differently, with Atzilut as subatomic particles, beriah as atoms, yetzirah as cells, and asiya as organs, while the entire body is the four worlds together as the tetragrammaton. From the human perspectives, I think that organs are an essential component, are actually what comprise our individual awarenes, while the entire entity, the body as a whole, is a functional construct of the unification of all of the previous fields, sub atomic, atoms, cells, and organs.
This was from the perspective of the individual human, as the four worlds structure is specific to Tzelem Adam.
Absolutely fantastic... thanks a lot...Namasker
Thank you
So is this the "downstairs" presentation? Excellent! Mahalos!
Yes I finally made it downstairs! Just saw the other video and was really hoping I could find "downstairs." Woohoo!
Neil explains quantized scale rather well 😊
Toll :) Danke!
Phoofier? ... Science-y? There should definitely be phoo-ons.
Have been on the mobius from the first moment my eyes opened inward and kundalini surged through the twist exploding two into one into two again. And again.
What I would like to understand: What do a mobius torus and a fractal have in common? What connects them?
Wonderful talk. Thank you. Will definitely be looking for more.
In the boundless, there is nothing to give and nothing to receive and yet, the boundless is the state of existence in which everything has complete access to everything else.
professormaxtrinity eloquently put. I'm glad I received this. Lol
gerald g Right on.
professormaxtrinity wonderful comment and I’m thankful your ego had the desire to comment this. It’s very profound, but could you explain it in a bit more detail with reason cos what you expressed is pure intuition and I have a feeling of its truth, but I’d also like to have an idea of it, and please don’t go on saying it’s beyond ideas cos intuition involves ideas.
Your expression the primordial sate of existence right? God, Source or force, this infinite nature. So right now In existence the finite is contained within the boundless, an extension or expression of its power of existence, yet it has no access to everything else or am I wrong?
Conrad Ambrossi your thinking too much and not living enough lol
Conrad Ambrossi I am no one to say you are wrong in such explorations. I have my own customized view that suits me. I do see a primary state of awareness that I call simple self awareness (SSA). It once occurred to me that, in order for awareness to exist it has to be aware of it's own existence. In this primary state there is the basic reciprocating relationship between self asserting and self sensing. It is a single action (awareness) characterized by two simultaneous references. These two references, or aspects of awareness are, self-sensing and self asserting. As awareness is asserting itself it is simultaneously sensing its' assertive action. As awareness is sensing itself it is asserting its receptive nature and so the two are one in reciprocation. In this primary state all assertions have access to interact with all reception. It's not a field, it's a state of accessibility through resonance and instantaneous integrations that occur in overlaps like notes in a chord.
I've written some books on the subject On Amazon under Kelly Florez, "Elements of Existence" and "Life Design." That's the shortest answer I can give. and it has mathematical formulae to support it. Years of research and so forth. It's like a hobby.
it's a push/pull, just like spacetime.
crowley understood switching roles, as did levay and myriad other magicians and preformers before them.
when you change your viewpoint other viewpoints do become veiled.

What is the "ism" he frequently mentions ....shevism?? I can't make it out
Saivism. You can see it written in the abstraction of the menas' paper. Sourced from pause at 25:46.
As far as I can understand, shiva being revered as the ultimate god of creation and destruction is uniting the duals of good and evil. Life can be synonymous with struggle and therefore has an inherent aspect of darkness and death typically has a renewing connotation in that it makes way for new life and has a light aspect conversely. All things in reality therein are not seperate but rather they are but narrow vantages of sections if the whole. That shiva IS existence. Not a seperate entity that is responsible for the universe but the universe itself; you and I, animal, vegetable, and mineral. It is all god and only appears as seperate things at our level of perception magnification.
This existence is the perfect imperfection where "nothing&something" and the infinite are parts of a bigger reality that is there and our so called measure of maths is not able to understand as the key is between the perfect and the imperfect thats why quantum and relativity looks so different and incompatible with each other. Also I like to reference Anaxagoras an ancient Presocrtic Greek Philosopher who was the first who mentioned the theory of the opposites that I stumbled across while I was trying to understand my thinking about the cooperation of the opposites such an nothing with something and consciousnesses
We are pure consciousness having a material experience, we think of something in the back of our *Brains, and we make it in the material world. So be-careful and kind & you won't be able to do anything but good things, see how it works. Jesus says the same thing. We are all in the Soup together each with a part equal to all.
Jesus soup.

Without self awareness there couldn't be compassion. So conversely compassion is why you're self aware fools😑
