    Battling some potential very severe health issues i've spent months in crippling anxiety and depression of such level i never believed possible. One of the most severe effects of this is being absolutely unable to tolerate any sort of socializing, entertainment, music, shows or interests that i had. Videos like this are the only thing that keep my sanity alive. It has a great therapeutical side as it helps me relativize the human ephemeral condition and fills me with some sort of hope that we are all part of something with greater end goal. No psychologist or religion has been able to settle my racing thoughts for a while than this sort of videos. I can just close my eyes, listen to the words and let myself go on those philosophical and existential rides.

    Adrian, I love how you bring your vision of the possibilities of the cosmic future, based on your knowledge of the ideas of past, as well some of the leading contemporary philosophers and the findings of science. In addition, I love how you put consciousness as the possible most elementary form of existance, something that I can fully subscribe from the inner voice, the intuition, the natural assumption that does not ask for proof. I thank you for your creations and publications.

Your videos perfectly articulate many of the thoughts I have had that I could never quite put in to words, as well as blowing my mind even further to any of my preconceived notions. Looking forward to the next one, take care!

      What you truly are is a tiny part of stardust, which created the whole Universe, and which became conscious of itself. Just like the rest of us. We're all just part of the universe experiencing itself. There's nothing special about you nor me so that we have some kind of separate spirit, one for me and one for you. There is no duality in the universe. If you're a spirit, than that SAME spirit shares every living thing in the universe, including me.

  • @andybrown3016
    @andybrown3016 Před 3 lety +108

    Quantum physics has already proven that consciousness is non material and that it operates at a much deeper level as of yet undetected. Any material observer during the double slit experiment which examined the wave/particle duality paradox would not collapse this function. The only thing that could induce this would be an unsubstantiated field of origin which operates outside the realms of scientific observation. Consciousness is the absolute reality, the underlying substratum out of which all matter, all experience and any observation temporarily manifests

    • @tinkmarz1
      @tinkmarz1 Před 3 lety +12

      Yes. Countless NDErs (among whom I happen to be one) report that this physical universe is not the reality of existence. In studying sub atomic particles quantum physics also indicates this, as well as other dimensions. Hence, this video seems quite outdated because it stresses the importance of this single physical plane/dimension as the (only?) reality, while in reality quantum physics and the NDE phenomena demonstrate it is consciousness that creates it (as well as others).

    • @baloog8
      @baloog8 Před 3 lety +7

      To support this, you can look up Stuart hameroff's work. Using Occams Razor, the inexplicable affects of anesthesia on microtubules, impossible processing power of c elegans worm neurons, quantum consciousness becomes a plausible and/or leading theory.

      Hold on there Mr. Bohr. You jump from the Hard Problem to QFT? The Copenhagen interpretation isn't even close to being an accepted Principal. What of Many Words interpretation? What are you referring, deeper level? Panpsychism? Bottom up or top down? Duality? Integrated information theory? Penrose / Hameroff Microtubules? I suggest you get back to some basic understanding of these postulates before you make absurd assumptions

    • @highmajorus2639
      @highmajorus2639 Před 3 lety +17

      No, just no! Quantum Theory has proven no such thing as the immateriality of consciousness. Quantum theory is in itself not proven. You have simply wrapped your belief that consciousness is an immaterial absolute reality in a word salad of pseudo-scientific nonsense. I believe that consciousness is non-material, but belief is not even a hypothesis ...

I think there are very good reasons to believe in what we call "souls", that they are alien based in origin, and that they engineered humanity to suit their purpose. Much of the thoughts and reasoning through your documentaries reinforce this viewpoint for me. Thank you for making these. You do them extremely well, they are well researched and well edited.

    Prajapati playing ''hide and go seek'' with himself. The Indian Rishi's describe a metaphor for all this millenia ago. But never were the ''visuals'' so fine nor the narration so pleasing, as in this video. Just what I needed. Thank you. Metta!

    Philosophers like to think they're reporting on reality/truth, when they're merely spouting opinions. Those opinions tend to drive reality, rather than the other way around. Just one more way humans try to control their surroundings, for the sake of ego.
    One can find the way. But not without one's own reason. Each of us has a path to truth. That path is ours and ours alone.

  • @torontotom3168
    @torontotom3168 Před 3 lety +1

    He is right that's how i astral traveled... It was on a bio photon. People have been doing this in meditation sending out thier consciousness with light produced by the body. You actually could do it with a lazer.
    Russell Targ might know something about that yet i cant find any information on it, i will dig deep. Remote viewing is easier than astral travel yet astral travel is really high definition and a way different experience than remote viewing which is an amazing ability everyone has. You must practice all you do is close your eyes and try to see where your pet or someone is in your house and pay attention and then go check really quick if you were right.
    It is not high definition like astral travel yet with practice it gets more clear and easier for you to pay attention to this natural ability.
    Let me know when you succeed.
    This is now becoming more main stream and there will always be those that pretend yet there are also true practitioners that are happy to explain freely

  • @Michael-ik3fc

    Interesting video, I was just having similar thoughts about deep time the other day, like would life as a phenomenon in the universe converge towards a steady state and what would it be like, and whether our technological development can be perceived as part of our own evolutionary process and not something external to ourselves.
    F.ex. what is the fundamental difference between:
    Being self-replicating single cells using available resources to form self-replicating multicellular organisms in order to ensure long term survival,
    and
    being self-replicating multicellular organisms using available resources to form self-replicating space habitats in order to ensure long term survival?
    Are we conscious beings?
    Are single cells conscious beings? Would space habitats be conscious beings? etc...

      @Gabekelley Před 3 lety +1

      There is no air resistance in space so if you had a modest and constant acceleration it wouldn't take long to achieve that speed. Perhaps my use or understanding of Netonian physics has a hiccup when approaching such substantial speeds and einsteinien physics and relativity holds barriers I am unaware of.

    We are our own self limiters. Through hate, war, greed, narcissism, pessimism, fascism and all negative traits of our species, we impose a limit upon ourselves. The universal response to these actions and ways of being are simple, you "will not" take this to the stars.

  • @RSEFX
    @RSEFX Před 3 lety

    Of all the sites I visit----and they are, well, what's a stronger word than "many"?----this one holds me, speaks to me and the biggest pictures of existence being imagined. Not that there aren't other individual voices out there speaking of equally profound concepts, but here they are all squeezed together into a kind of mental plasma we can soak up to our minds' (and hearts') content. In this video, the one idea that struck me on the deepest level was the notion of creating worlds without predatory behaviors as a given, without pain and anguish. Perhaps the universe will evolve on its own toward higher levels of altruism, as consciousness emerges more fully and interactively in the physical/material processes of existence. But, on my "slightly" ambitious Christmas wish list for 2021 (and every year), is the possibility of some kind of consciousness evolution able to thumb through all time and space at will and re-do the pain and suffering that has befallen life throughout its own existence....A god-like ultimate ----a grand universal----altruism. (Well, they say "dream big"....and that's what I dream of. The childlike ---or is it simply "childish"?---wish that all is good, that all the pain be gone, that our friends and family, our pets and all things---can be healed. Yes, that just might be the ultimate "great big wish".)

Thank you again for this wonderful, enriching, stimulating and, truly enchanting site! Good wishes! (I see that you use images from a number of sources, other documentaries. Do you have to go to the companies directly to get the footage, in the case of "with permission" material?---or are you able to just select/edit footage directly from released DVD's? I also wonder if you have any one or two sources for stock material---footage primarily, not still images----that you might suggest, footage dealing with phenomena in the universe, and/or of biological processes, dramatic weather scenes etc that you would be willing to recommend? )

    Time is a purely human observational concept. It does not exist outside of human perception. It can only be as you decide or are programmed to perceive it as such.
