A good interview with insightful physicist, writer, speaker and Transcendental Meditation practitioner Peter Russell: Religions are the remnants of spirituality. Science proceeds funeral by funeral. Nothing in the current scientific paradigm explains consciousness. We might all be living in the matrix and it might all just be a virtual reality (In older traditions it´d be phrased more like everything exists within consiousness /Jan). There is nothing there...protons aren´t things...but potentials of having a certain observation. Whatever matter is, it´s not made of matter. There´s information there...An electron has charge/spin/mass, but we don´t know what that is. It´s just numbers and we can detect that information. There´s no thing there, it comes from our experience. We don´t know what is out there...the brain is putting together a representation...an experience...that we take to be physical reality. We don´t know what matter (and space/time/energy) is. New paradigms... First they are ignored, then ridiculed, then accepted as facts. Anything we say about it (the world) is just a projection from the mind. Matter doesn´t create consciousness, the capacity for experience is already there. ...for starters. Perfect for the current cold swedish summer. :)
