“We create our own reality because of our inner emotional - our subconscious - reality draws us into those situations from which we learn. We experience it as strange things happening to us (and) we meet the people in our lives that we need to learn from. And so we create these circumstances at a very deep metaphysical and subconscious level.” PeopleNeedsRealityLevelsSituationOur LivesEmotionalStrangeCircumstancesDrawsHappeningsThings HappenSubconsciousMetaphysicalStrange ThingsVery DeepPeople In Our Lives Author:Edgar Mitchell
“Let me put it in a rather larger picture framework. Let's go to the longest time frame, the time frame of the life of our sun. As a star, our sun is about halfway through its life cycle. In the long run, we only have a couple of billion more years likely that we can inhabit this planet. By that time, we're going to have to be out of here before our sun dies. Now, I don't think we need to wait that long, and we certainly shouldn't wait that long. At the moment, we are not on a sustainable path.” ThinkingNeedsYearsLongMomentsRunningDiesStarsWaitingSunPathPlanetsCoupleLet MeBillionsCyclesLong RunsFrameworkHalfway Author:Edgar Mitchell
“Certainly whatever climate change and global warming means, we've got a big issue here. Right now, this civilization or this period that we're in is probably going to need the resources off our planet, perhaps the resources from the asteroids, perhaps there will be some on the moon, perhaps some on Mars that we can utilize for our own uses here.” NeedsMeanUseBigsIssuesPlanetsPeriodsCivilizationRight NowMoonResourcesClimateClimate ChangeGlobal WarmingMarsOur PlanetAsteroids Author:Edgar Mitchell
“Perhaps people need to understand some history here. Rene Descartes, in the late 16th, early 17th century, postulated that body, mind, physicality and spirituality belonged to different realms of reality that didn't interact. On a positive side, it got the Inquisition off the backs of the intellectuals and they quit burning them at the stake for disagreeing with the Church.” PeopleNeedsMindDifferentBodyRealitySpiritualitySidesChurchCenturyLateQuittingBurningRealmsStakesPhysicalityInquisition17th Century Author:Edgar Mitchell
“The Big Bang has gone away, but as far as Super String, that is suspicious for me. It all starts out with the notion of Big Bang, which if it were true, starts out with incredibly high temperatures. So they think [we] need to get these high temperatures for this broken symmetry; all this broken symmetry reunited, and we do not have enough energy in the whole galaxy to get to those temperatures, to prove their point. To me, that is the single flaw in Super String theory.” IfsThinkingNeedsEnoughWholeBigsEnergyGoneTheoryBrokenProveNotionStringsFlawsGalaxyBangsSuspiciousTemperatureSymmetryString TheoryReunitedGone Away Author:Edgar Mitchell
“When you transcend the transcendent states, you get past the ego structure, and at that point you don't need laws, you have "morality!" You have inborn, natural ethics, because it is built on Love.” NeedsStatesPastLawNaturalMoralityEgoEthicsBuiltStructureTranscendent Author:Edgar Mitchell
