“I think it's science and physics are just starting to learn from all these experiments. These experiments have been carried out hundreds and hundreds of times in all sorts of ways that no physicist really questions the end point. I think that these experiments are very clearly telling us that consciousness is limitless and the ultimate reality.” ThinkingWayHas BeensEndsRealityConsciousnessUltimateStartingPhysicsExperimentsPhysicistLimitlessUltimate Reality Author:Robert Lanza
“The spiritual is not the emotional; we may receive spiritual things emotionally, but to receive them rationally we must receive them with the mind and the will; we must act on them, we must experiment on them, we must let them permeate our consciousness.” MindMaySpiritualConsciousnessEmotionalExperiments Book:The Venture of Rational Faith Source: The Venture of Rational Faith
“Even if the constants which economists wish to determine were less numerous, and the method of experiment more accessible, we should still be faced with the fact that the constants themselves are different at different times. The gravitation constant is the same always. But the economic constants-these elasticities of demand and supply-depending, as they do, upon human consciousness, are liable to vary. The constitution of the atom, as it were, and not merely its position, changes under the influence of environment.” IfsShouldHumansStillsDifferentFactsWishConsciousnessEnvironmentInfluenceEconomicPositionDemandConstitutionMethodConstantDetermineExperimentsAtomsEconomistVaryLiableDifferent TimesHuman ConsciousnessGravitationElasticity Author:Arthur Cecil Pigou
“The main thesis of mind-physics holds that consciousness and matter are both manifestations of a more primary entity, and that the processes of manifestation exhibit equivalent invariances for both consciousness and matter. When the program for mind-physics is complete the subject-object dichotomy of modal logic, the polarity of concept-percept, and the antagonism between morality and technology will all come to an end. Then the non-repeatable experiment will be understood to be more primary than the traditional repeatable experiment.” MindEndsMatterProcessConsciousnessTechnologySubjectsObjectsMoralityUnderstoodConceptsProgramLogicPhysicsExperimentsTraditionalPrimariesManifestationEntityExhibitsThesisDichotomyAntagonismPolarity Author:Paul Laffoley
“People are interested in authentic long-term, socialist goals, which is not what is usually called socialism. They should be thinking through carefully how the projected society should work, but not in extensive detail because a lot of things just have to be learned by experiment and we don't know enough to plan societies in detail by any means. But, general guidelines could be worked out and many of the specific problems can be discussed. That should just be part of people's popular consciousness. That's how a transition to socialism could take place.” PeopleThinkingKnowsShouldMeanLongEnoughProblemGoalTermConsciousnessPlansDetailsExperimentsSocialismLong TermTransitionSocialistGuidelines Author:Noam Chomsky
“We need to learn to listen to what the people need and want and not try to impose on them a whole schema that they may not. This is historically difficult stuff: how do we balance the project of raising consciousness, advancing a vision of utopia, with the real and honest engagement in real-world experiments?” PeopleWorldWantNeedsTryingMayRealWholeStuffDifficultConsciousnessVisionHonestBalanceProjectsExperimentsReal WorldEngagementUtopiaAdvancingNeeds And WantsSchemas Author:Gar Alperovitz
