    Watch Part 1 here: • Robert Lanza: The Theo...
    The mission of Science and Nonduality (SAND) is to forge a new paradigm in spirituality, one that is not dictated by religious dogma, but rather is based on timeless wisdom traditions of the world, informed by cutting-edge science, and grounded in direct experience.

    Buddhism has already uncovered all of this! It is absolutely grounded in direct experience. The only thing that seems to be different with Biocentrism is that there doesn't seem to be any emphasis on the transformation of suffering in the world. Lanza has presented all of the right stuff here about non-duality, interpenetration, etc. but what do we do with all of that wisdom? He doesn't seem to have any ideas on that. It isn't about religion. It is about our hearts.

    Momentum is not "the summation of many frames". Momentum is primary and frames are secondary. Momentum happens and we post hoc artificially divide it into as many frames as we like. Planck's constants are handy tools but not fundamental, not necessities, we are not stuck with them. It's "life continuing" that is fundamental.

    Dr. Lanza’s book on “Biocentrism: How Life and Consciousness Are the Keys to Understanding the ...” is wonderful and thought provoking for average reader and even scientists. This illustrate how blind the science is. As it has been rightly pointed out at the beginning, this view is not totally new to the eastern world, where such a stand has been taken by several religious teachings. Especially the Buddhism (especially Theravada Buddhism) takes such a strong stand and extensively analyze these and even more deeper issues about the truth of the life. It very well discusses how material is connected to the consciousness and springs in a life. These are extensively discussed in Theravada Buddhism prevalent in Sri Lanka, Mianmar, Thailand and India, and may be slightly different in Mahayana Buddhism which is prevalent in countries like China and Japan.
    I really recommend a glance into the deeper teachings of Buddhism for anybody who is more interested in these.

    Part 1: Robert Lanza: The Theory of Biocentrism, Part 1 (th-cam.com/video/zI_F4nOKDSM/w-d-xo.html)
    Illusion #1: 3:00 We do not control anything, nor does he control his body. It occurs spontaneously and he assumes he has control after the fact that it has happened all by itself due to his beliefs blinding him from this direct observation.
    Illusion #2: 6:40 "Reality is a process that involves your consciousness." A more accurate statement is that Reality IS consciousness, and your consciousness is reality in process. You are not a part of reality, but its whole, expressed as a perceivable portion through what you are presently aware.
    Illusion #3: 8:40 All of experience is not "just information occurring inside your mind," as if he equates that to happening inside of the body. The brain is an antennae and the body is a vessel that limits the relative perceptions to be led into the appearance that our experiences happen within the body, but upon closer observation, all experience IS mind and occurs as "knowing" in the light of conscious awareness. It is always happening in one place, at one time, in one space, that is at the core of consciousness itself, as consciousness.
    Illusion #4: 10:40 You exist regardless as to anything "out there," and all of that "out there," is an organization of consciousness that is a direct reflection of your inner state of consciousness that is infinitely vast, but presently non-physical in your current orientation. The continuity of your existence can be observed directly and it is the only aspect that can be proven, because the theory of the big bang is just that. A theory of illogical thinking that lacks real observation.
    Illusion #5: 11:50 "The universe and all of its parameters simply reflects the spacial-temporal logic of the animal observer." God..this one is so far off. Reflection is correct, but only in a relative stance to the individual perceiver that is a microcosm of the whole. From the whole's point of view, it is one unchanging infinite potential that reflects nothing, but it is all that is. The reflection occurs as an illusion for practical purposes within it. Next, the "spacial-temporal logic" is totally a man made contraption that is passed down from generation to generation as a non-validated belief system. Time and space can not be proven to exist, because they do not exist. We use a mental approximation of these ideas and project their apparent existence for practical relations, but with the right observation, they can easily be proven to not exist by any individual. Finally, the notion of an "animal observer" is completely flawed, because the animal is not the observer, the awareness that exists independent of the animal's senses, is the observer. The observer exists independent of the senses; this is why you can experience your dreams, yet all of your physical senses are turned off. This is why people can have experiences after death and come back and share those perspectives in words, even though their brain was technically dead while away.
    Illusion #6: 13:35 "The bigger problem is the life contains consciousness." Again, totally backwards logic. Consciousness contains life and that life expresses itself as Oneself through beings of form and non-form. There are no problems, which is the primary reason that theories like this go in circles leading to no where. You can't build a solution by beginning with a problem based mindset, just as you can't solve a problem from the perspective that created the problem to begin with.
    Illusion #7: 14:15 "Science cannot confirm how consciousness arrives from matter. Our understanding of this is virtually null." It doesn't come from matter. Matter is a slower vibrational frequency of thought and it appears denser in relativity to the observer that experiences it. Matter is thought and it is mind as consciousness. This makes 100% more sense as soon as you personally prove to yourself that gravity does not exist. Gravity does not cause the Earth to pull objects down towards it, the Law of Buoyancy does. There is a reason why it is called the “Theory of Gravity, “ and not the law of gravity. It is a mind-made abstraction that is not of reality, just like this theory of biocentrism. Take out the bio, and he would be so much closer.
    Illusion #8: 17:00 "Undeniably it is the biological creature that makes the observations and creates the theories;" this is *not so.* The theories are created by excessive thinking and not enough conscious observing. The observations are made by Awareness, which exists independent of the organism *and its thoughts*. Any person can prove this right now. Watch your thoughts, wait for them to disappear or see the gap in between. Who is that that is still watching without thought? That is you. This can be easily proven by any individual. The thoughts create thoughts and the observer experiences observations.
    Part 2 : Robert Lanza: The Theory of Biocentrism, Part 2 (th-cam.com/video/Yw55BsToVZM/w-d-xo.html)
    Illusion #9: 12:30 "Time is simply the animal sense that animates the still frames sorta speak of the spacial world. It is our tool of perception." He has assumed that animals perceive time and space based on the same limiting factors as his present human belief system and that such perceptions are "animal based." They are not animal based, but based on his beliefs that have not been verified directly in his experience, and thus he has imposed them upon the nature of other beings, or on our animalistic aspect of this present organization of consciousness. He has also mistaken "time and space" as inherent factors of our "tool of perception," when in actuality, these are ideas of belief that are limiting our tool of perception. They are not "the tool" of perception, but might be more accurately expressed as tools of belief, in their own rights.
    Illusion #10: 14:10 "The problem lies in our failure to accept the evidence." Again, there is no problem. Anything a person says is not evidence, it is information. Real evidence is called experience and it is gained through knowledge. Knowledge is that which is discovered through knowing an experience directly via our personal awareness with it; it can not be told by any person. Robert is sharing his opinion, not his experience. He technically can not share his experience, only his theories, hence why this is claimed as a "theory" of Biocentrism, instead of Reality itself.
    The walls of space and time are an illusion : True, except that they are not walls, but beliefs.
    This has the same conclusions as non-duality, but knows nothing practical about the experiences of non-duality, thus it is presently pseudo-non-duality. There are too many errors in the logic and he has jumped to conclusions, because his basis for the origin of Awareness is inaccurate, thus everything else is misunderstood by affect. This is all theory and not his experience, thus it is practically useless. People should not believe blindly, just because it sounds nice to the non-experienced.The truth of reality is non-duality, but his explanations lack any personal experience.

    I’m having trouble understanding a key aspect here. I was hoping he’d explain it but he never did. If something doesn’t exist unless it’s being observed, or may exist or behave in a different way, then how can different people see the same thing the same way? Using his kitchen example, I know what my kitchen looks like, someone I work with that’s never been to my house or even knows I own a house, comes over without me being there and walks in the door he sees my kitchen the way I know it to be. Or as another example, 2 or more people may be on a road trip across the country, they e never been to a certain state, city or town yet when they make a turn into a road they all see the same building at the same height and width in the same color. Obviously it exists as it is whether they observed it prior or not. Please explain if you can, thanks in advance.

    • @theproGAMAS
      @theproGAMAS 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I think because particles are in the same position for all observers but color may be different. For example lets say your kitchen cabinets are brown and you recognize them as brown. The other person will also recognize them as brown. Now you both see the cabinets as brown but his brown could be your red or your brown could be his blue but would never know because your both hardwired to believe your seeing the same thing as one another. I probably didn’t explain that as well as I could but their are some sources on how people perceive color differently and how we could unlock colors that we have never seen before. Very interesting.

    Robert I found your talk fascinating as I have experience what you are speaking about in deep meditation. As the mind slows in meditation the witness experience the movie of life they have been emerged in - it slow to still picture and then objects, then atoms, then nothingness. As the witness stays in the space of emptiness samadhi consciousness is revealed. The experience of non duality and love emerge as all conditioning disappears. The witness realises the movies they were emerged in is not truth and there is an awakening or uncovering of the pure consciousness, love, peace and oneness that they are and always have been.

    Brilliant save one minor point -- Dr. Lanza's analogy of the uncertainty principle with the camera observed arrow, essentially Zeno's paradox as Dr. Lanza himself explains. There is an immediate answer, but a couple of steps further on, Dr. Lanza's point can still be made -- if anything, more powerfully. The immediate answer is to be found in the Lorenz-Fitzgerald contractions. Specifically, the freeze-frame arrows velocity will be recorded in the arrows spatial contraction in the direction of movement (if not knowable to the naked eye, theoretically by that eye aided by sufficiiently sensitive equipment, certainly). However, when one accounts for Zeno's runner's and Achilles paradoxes by the information jumps proferred by quantum mechanics, one runs into a problem of the relativistiic light-speed limit constradicting that instantaneous transport (i.e., this is the Einstein-Rosen-Podalsky (EPR) paradox in a nutshell. Well, alright, it doesn't travel through space, but simply skips over it. However, then it loses that contraction information, rebirthing Dr. Lanza's original point. Developments in physics since Dr. Lanza's talk here indicate that in fact, the two quantum particles (at least their information) are in "wormhole" / "hyperspace" sense, int the same location always. However, above this is the idea, out of the holographic principle, that spacetime itself only exists as a perceptual illusion of the intricate continuous entanglement in quatum field theory -- which it needs to be admitted, is nothing bui abstract informtion perceived by consciousness. All this, too, supports Prof. Donal Hoffman's Multimodal User Interface theory and in fact Penrose-Hameroff Orchestrated Objective Reduction (Orch OR), once the semantics are deeply clarified. As to "the gaps" in material science -- ultimately these are consciousness and Infinity. Numbers have no freewill, but the infinitely large and small -- which are one and the same -- are not mere "numbers". The ultimate name of the game is freewill purpose coming out of absolute, intrinsic paradox. This abyss of infinity that so subliminally terrified from the Greek philosophy on, became the mathematical foundation (technically in terms of infinite and altering recursion) of a faith above reason -- as it has to be (and not below, per the accusation of superstition), in what we could best term from our cloudy mentality, endless consciousness.

    Also there would be a past or historical framework that would make things more stable and acquire independence. There is a principal of precedence in quantum mechanics, that is consistent with the theory of morphic resonance, to allow macroscopic objects to exist independent of observation as we create our environment and aspects within it. Niche construction and constructional selection make this possible as well as a history of interactions with seemingly inanimate things, constraints in how things are structured, function and other properties arise from this history or dynamic non-linear formative multi-causation(historical and environmental scaffolding and entrenchement). Though retrocausality/supercausality or syntropy to certain degrees, levels, and context would be possibilities as well( quantum synchronization/entanglement/ coherence)

    He's suggesting that the world we see now is defined consciousness. Constant mention of "the tool of perception", refers to the quantify of objects and the very meaning of time. The through understanding of so-called "illusion" would be at first hard for the public just as how Newton challenged the very world.
    However, in short, the world we observe today could be defined as the fusion of global consciousness (without the limitation of time or space, as stated in quantum physics) is the central thought behind, not defined individually.

    The part at around 13:40 about the zeno effect. I've done an experiment that I now dub 'boiling-water-time-manipulation-effect' where I'd watch the pot of water gradually beginning to boil for my pasta and if you actually stare at it for a very long time, you begin to see things that you never have seen before. The water changes very strangely and it is as if you are manipulating time versus how quick it feels when you don't watch it boil. When you watch the water gradually beginning to boil it is exactly what Lanza is talking about preventing a nuclear bomb from exploding by keep checking its atom every million trillionth of a second. Honestly, if you want to do a fascinating experiment and if the mind creates reality, the boiling water experiment is a great one to do; that would mean we can do more tests like this very cheaply and more complex to find out more answers. It seems that the more information that we observe, the slower time passes, just like when we're having fun or working. But then, where does this information come from if there is no external world? Lanza talks about if we are not looking, our kitchens are just quantum foam. Where is this quantum if it is not external?

As regards the esquizofrenic, he said they experience reality in a different way and even see people, hear them, etc and they are real to them, by saying that he tried to reinforce his theory that everything occurs in the mind. However I think esquizofrenic can see someone is stabbing them, for instance, feel it, see the blood but cannot die from that injury. Or they can see they are being bitten by a poisonous snake and feel like dying but cannot actually die and that is a difference with "reality"(the one the rest of us experience) So, up to which extent is reality a phenomenon happening only in our minds?

    I'm on board with a lot of his points, but isn't evolution entirely dependant on there being a definite external environment to react to?
    Life seems to be ongoing narrative/conversation between multiple parts intrinsically linked but containing individual characteristics and expressions, creating the illusion of separation.
    Perhaps consciousness inevitably arose as an evolutionary trait to aid in socialisation/procreation by way of rumination - better adaptability through more complex thoughts, understanding and reactions to the ever changing environment around us.
    Why did lifeforms develop eyes (light wave receptors), ears (sound wave receptors) and other sensory faculties if not to better communicate with the world around us which has been shaping us (and us it) for millennia?
    The genetic propriety for life seems to be: Adapt & Survive. Thus we evolve to develop more "efficient" and "useful" parts better suited to our immediate environment.
    The Cambrian explosion was triggered by a sudden yet dramatic enough change in the environment giving rise to more complex lifeforms as they adapted and changed to the new circumstances.
    I believe there is an external universe and other lifeforms exist out-with Earth. It seems a natural progression given the right conditions/the building blocks for life are available.
    Intelligent lifeforms develop because the universe is governed by intelligence - seemingly mathematical laws deriving from an unknown origin.
    Maybe there doesn't have to be an origin? Maybe it just IS. But that concept goes against our logical, meaning seeking minds.
    Idk, in any case it is a fascinating contemplation.
