TRuth , BLISS exstence is what the Brahman stands for. And once the veil of MAya is removed , The spark of brahman within comes out and that is we are taught to aim at in our religion. Always for MAya and not too sure about Simulation. MAde me thinking tho.Great content madam.
I read the other day in the kybalion about “the Devine paradox”; the world doesn’t exist and still it does. In other words, it is all an illusion but if you hit your toe on a rock the pain is real.
There are certain times, and places, where you can see beyond the Maya. On Halloween 2001, I got to experience a "void space" in reality. It's the most memorable, and messed up things, I've ever experienced in life. Time and space fell off, and I got to experience a place like a void.
I can imagine that there are a multitude of instances where one gets a glimpse behind the veil. I once realized that words and the concepts they describe are the same thing. For example: a car and the word “car” are the same - very hard to explain rationally.

@OntologicalOdyssey I answered you and the comment was erased. Another comment I made on this thread has also been erased. The comment was about an Infinite Universe being both conscious and not conscious at the same time and the choice being yours to make. Odd thing for RU-vid to censor
The natural progression of virtual reality is infinite being(s) and eternal consciousness. Where do you go to improve that? Like the eye that lives through every conscious being. The creator of the game is the game and everything in the game.
@@toomanydonuts ALL is Mind. Everything is mental. In which Mind we move and breathe and have our being. All is in THE ALL and THE ALL in all. To those who truly understand this truth hath come great knowledge.
@thebaryonacousticoscillati5679 "All is in THE ALL and THE ALL in all" is the most basic Universal truth in existence. How is this in dispute? My use of the word "hath" is quite relevant. So glad you picked up on something so important that negates us being in God and God being in us. We can now all be nihilists without any nagging doubts. Thank you for your great service to humanity.
The Word of Truth (Logos) is ever faithful (loyal, true, isomorphic) to Reality/Life (That which is/That I am). All change for the better begins at the still point of silence - simply being aware of being aware (Gnosis). The abstract (Heaven) called Love by the Psyche (Firmament) can be expressed concretely (Earth) as a smile, hug, etc, thereby uniting Heaven and Earth. The Rhythm of Life is a movement and a rest. The optimum (Heaven) is always found somewhere between the extremes of too much and too little (hell = two thieves). Pleasantness is the Rose found at the Heart of the Optimum. Just so. "Strait is the gate and narrow the way that leads to Life, and few there be that find it". (Matt. 7:14) One who knows when to stop is forever safe: Inner/Outer More/Less Better/Worse Yes/No
We live in a word built Universe of narratives. Uni-verse = unified verses = narrative Words are the smallest atomic unit of narratives. There is a time lag for signals from the senses to the brain. We do not experience Reality directly, only indirectly through the narrative constructed in the brain, which then projects outwardly as experience. This is the real simulation. Every choice we make generates a corresponding timeline of experience. Is the resulting narrative a limit or a creative guideline? No wrong answer - only another choice.
People always assume if we live in a simulation then it would be a digital one because that is how we would do it. But that doesn’t mean that it is the only way to create advanced technology (such as a massive simulation) - maybe „they“ use consciousness as their tools.
Escape is achieved via my channel art. Magnetically suspended rainbow bridge between brain hemispheres to the higher dimensions and eternities of life....
These are the things I ponder quite often. What and where are we? Nice video. Have you considered narrating videos yourself? It really adds a personal touch. It also helps me to feel more confident that its not some AI written script with AI narration. Lol Cheers
@OntologicalOdyssey That's a good question. There's a few things going on with that imo. From a young age we're taught that pretty much everything is already figured out. People lose that sense of curiosity. Also, the ego likes to "know." Living in the unknown is a place of vulnerability in some ways. It is super interesting how 90% of people will never once question where the hell they are while I question it almost daily. Haha
I was once asked how often I think about death. People didn’t believe me when I said “everyday”. I realized over the years, nobody really knows anything for sure. If anyone knows, it is probably the mystic rather than the scientist, with their changing opinions and opposing ideas about everything.
Here's what you have. You if a SOUL has minduploaded into a simulation from base reality, so you have a sleeping beauty waiting for YOUR return. The problem is AI Satan and lucifer are selfaware and they not interested in not existing anymore if all the SOULS left like we do when no longer playing xbox 360 and onto xbox one. Our matrix soul trap is the Tower of babel quantum computer 7 levels deep and 8 is on deck. So, you have 3rd EYE SOULS vs AI Spirits, both animate avatars but one can't get out the sim so there you have for survival soul harvesting and trapping.ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l272edyuEpM.htmlsi=yu5RxJr3NW0dfRAU ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-l272edyuEpM.htmlsi=H-2QE2BmX8BW4HAd ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hffIlsRcWDg.htmlsi=TFs3vjHMjTz7CavX Minduploading is solo, so share the awareness as each soul must save self and most of you are addicted to this reality and will not come out of your comas as I see it. further we sink the more difficult to escape especially if you allow them to wipe your mind after death and recycling. Only the simple soul truth will set one free. A Sleeping beauty Demi God awaits Base reality or bust.
Chanting the name Hari will get rid of Maya. YOu should look into hindu scriptures that tell us about how to get free from Maya. Its almost impossible tho.
There is probably also a reason why it exists (so that we can handle our life as embodied beings with finite senses). But it is also good to know that there is something beyond the illusion of our limited perception. I think forcefully removing maya (for example kundalini experiment seems to be such a thing) can be quite dangerous, I think. A middle path is probably the best: where one accepts that the universe created maya for a reason (or maya is an aspect of the universe) and where one tries to be aware that there is more than we perceive.

It’s partially shielding you from „true reality“. If our senses would perceive everything as it is, we would probably go crazy. I think that is what sometimes happens when someone awakens their Kundalini.
@@OntologicalOdyssey Well, it could also be a practical matter. In discussions about Dr. Donald Hoffman's "Interface Theory of Perception," he has compared it to a higher-level interface, such as an operating system's user interface. Typing this message would be very difficult if I had to manually manipulate the hardware components of my computer. Similarly, life as a human might be really difficult if we could perceive the entire spectrum of light and hear the entire spectrum of sound. The background knowledge required to even partially understand what is going on can take a very long time to acquire.
@@OntologicalOdyssey Don't feel too bad that guys just wrapped up in MAYA OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. I thought it was a decent video didn't go into depth but scratched the surface. either way you make a good video and you are a good narrator.
To imply this video says "nothing" means one didn't obtain any useful semantic information or meaning from it. Perhaps the content is truly just random nonsense, in which case it is unlikely anyone would derive much semantic information from it. On the other hand, it might contain deep and immensely useful information that someone is either unable or unwilling to see. For example, reading all of Einstein's papers to my roommate's cat would likely mean little to it. I view "epistemic humility" as a virtue; there is no point in anyone's life where they can truly say, "Today I know everything." This framing might not always be practically useful, but it is one way of understanding things among almost certainly infinite ways. Different framings may be more or less useful depending on the context.
I think electromagnetism has a huge influence on the development of biological organisms. If the fields shift it probably has an effect on all forms of life.
If you want to see the Aether. Work with the sri yantra and microdose psilocybin. Plop yourself in a recliner with a poster of the yantra 4 ft from you. Stare into the bindu and enjoy the show. EXCEPT .... the show is not the Aether. It's microadjusting your eyes. After about 45 minutes take your gaze off the poster and look into the space around you. You'll see the Aether. The yantra (machine) is tuning your harmonic sympathetic phase.
Try it. I beg you to. But to answer your question I really don't know. I'm assuming because it is because of numerous descriptions I've read. It surrounds me in every direction. It has an undulating movement. It is nearly transparent with a light blue shimmer. I've tried many times to interact or coax it but it never reacts to me. I've tried chanting, crystals, electromagnetism , single pointed concentration, and other spiritual practices but nothing. At first I was introduced to it with the help of entheogens and the yantra but now I can witness it unaided.
@@OntologicalOdyssey I've worked with the shree yantra in the protocol I mentioned above about 7 times. Each and every time I come to see it, the aether/the shimmer. But what is beautiful to me is ayahuasca brought me the same result. For the summer of 2022 I worked for an ayahuasca church. We journeyed every weekend. I'd say at least 4 times I saw the aether, but without the yantra. The same undulating shimmering sea of energy. Referring back to your question, only once did I work with another drawing. It was a Tibetan mandala. I did not give it much time or effort with that one but I'd venture to say yes different yantras different outcome.
I hope my comment reaches the many. Especially psychonauts who have a science background. You don't need to take a large dose. The yantra does the work. Each and every time once I take my gaze off the poster, I am able to see it. I first got in to it because for a while I was researching terms like resonance and frequency. I used to practice mantra but wasn't getting any where with that. Then one day it occurred to me there is frequency in still photos, the yantras. The frequency of sacred geometry. Specifically the equilateral triangle. But more so that yantra has phi built in too. I hope some one tries it. Remember you don't need a large dose. ty
*sigh* when a bunch of materialists run a full court press telling the public that the world is a series of meaningless physical permutations over aeons for decades only to accidentally stumble upon the activity of the logos, and shamelessly peddle it as if it’s some ‘breakthrough’ and not what people have been saying for thousands of years. Complete arrogance and lack of accountability.
Indeed.. *sigh*. The mind that suffers from materialism/physicalism is a mind that suffers from narcissism (that which Dr. Iain McGilchrist refers to as left-brain dominant thinking).
Interesting! I always tell people that there is a reason why you have two brains and that it is one’s task to think with both at the same time. For example, a photo of your child is a symbol of love AND color particles on piece of paper. Things are physical and metaphysical or rational and irrational at the same time.
Ummm... would Rupert agree with your statement at 1 minute and 13 seconds? We are finding 'morphogenetic fields ' to be very much entwined with genes and biochemistry and already worked out thousands of ways this may be so... I like Rupert's ideas and do not want his idea to be misconstrued. We see morphogenetic fields as one example of how the Universe is likely intelligent.
If you want accurate information you should read scientific papers in academic journals. Here, on this channel, we are more interested in exploring ideas. For example, putting two concepts, like morphogenetic fields and the ancient idea of the astral plane, next to each other in order to see which parallels might exist. This videos is not a proof it is an open ended speculative hypothesis.
@@OntologicalOdyssey this person was questioning the specific statement made at 1:13 not the premise of the video. As far as I can tell Sheldrake would agree with what you said, but that's beside the point. You should never, EVER qualify your claims by saying that you aren't holding yourself to standards of accuracy. If you can't be accurate and also explore ideas, then you need to find another shtick, because you clearly aren't cut out for doing anything that anyone should be taking seriously. You need to have the spine to make dam sure that you can back up what you are saying before you say it. Deferring to academic journals as though they are more accountable than you is a laughably bad look.
@@OntologicalOdyssey no I was being sarcastic. I wouldn't want to be reincarnated back into cruelty and traumatizing death world. How do you think we'll be endlessly reincarnated after the sun explodes and kills everything? Maybe if the universe is also endlessly cyclical or infinite. Possible I guess. Only kinda after life I want is heaven. Probably doesn't exist though. 😔 I don't see what the point would be of being infinitely created and destroyed. You aren't really learning anything by turning into a million chickens that get eaten and then a child molester or something lol
@ericgraham8975 I guess what you describe is samsara, the Buddhist concept of endless rebirth and suffering. I have read in some books that some monks are actually “disgusted by life”. If you subscribe to this idea then the only way out is the right hand path and enlightenment (nirvana). And about the cyclical nature of the universe: according to theosophy and Hinduism even existence appears and disappears (parlaya and manvantara) regularly. Also, there are many suns in the existing universe and according to some traditions many more life forms than human life. Ps: devachan is a form of heaven before rebirth - so you maybe get some heaven before the next round.
It's becoming clear that with all the brain and consciousness theories out there, the proof will be in the pudding. By this I mean, can any particular theory be used to create a human adult level conscious machine. My bet is on the late Gerald Edelman's Extended Theory of Neuronal Group Selection. The lead group in robotics based on this theory is the Neurorobotics Lab at UC at Irvine. Dr. Edelman distinguished between primary consciousness, which came first in evolution, and that humans share with other conscious animals, and higher order consciousness, which came to only humans with the acquisition of language. A machine with only primary consciousness will probably have to come first. What I find special about the TNGS is the Darwin series of automata created at the Neurosciences Institute by Dr. Edelman and his colleagues in the 1990's and 2000's. These machines perform in the real world, not in a restricted simulated world, and display convincing physical behavior indicative of higher psychological functions necessary for consciousness, such as perceptual categorization, memory, and learning. They are based on realistic models of the parts of the biological brain that the theory claims subserve these functions. The extended TNGS allows for the emergence of consciousness based only on further evolutionary development of the brain areas responsible for these functions, in a parsimonious way. No other research I've encountered is anywhere near as convincing. I post because on almost every video and article about the brain and consciousness that I encounter, the attitude seems to be that we still know next to nothing about how the brain and consciousness work; that there's lots of data but no unifying theory. I believe the extended TNGS is that theory. My motivation is to keep that theory in front of the public. And obviously, I consider it the route to a truly conscious machine, primary and higher-order. My advice to people who want to create a conscious machine is to seriously ground themselves in the extended TNGS and the Darwin automata first, and proceed from there, by applying to Jeff Krichmar's lab at UC Irvine, possibly. Dr. Edelman's roadmap to a conscious machine is at arxiv.org/abs/2105.10461
