i have experienced through my life many things , and see that 'thought fastens itself to matter' .... therefore all reality starts with a ' thought'...... and thoughts can be changed, which inevitably changes the experience.....
So glad you interviewed Peter Russell. He's one of my favorites in the vesica piscis between consciousness and science - a truly great thinker. Good questions, too. It helped that you were so prepared. I'd like to suggest, however, that we don't know that all other species are not self-aware. I suggest we'll find it in dolphins, whales & elephants as well as possibly even higher intelligence. Our inability to communicate with them prevents us from making such conclusions - the more fool us.
I love to listen to Peter Russell. He has a beautiful mind. Maybe a suggestion for the interviewer: The questioning and interplay very much made me fell as though I was watching a psychologist elicit thoughts and feelings from his patient. It was a bit off-putting. Other than that, great interview. Thanks for sharing.
Two things, is every atheist an ex-Christian? and are there any sane minded people that listens to this man that believes he was a scientist? I love how he expresses the difference between stress versus meditation?????????
Spiritualism is fine but unfortunately it is often a refuge for ignorrance. A lot of people jump right into the cozy feeling of mysticism without taking the time to find out what we have actually learned about the world.
