I can agree with the phenomenon you express, but I can also see explanation for the cause and effect that is not spiritual, and simply a different form of intellect than the intellect you use to communicate... Kind of like how a horse is born knowing how to walk, but probably couldn't communicate walking (in whatever capacity horse communicate)I admit I am an oddity
I am a intellectual and spiritual
let me explain in regards to modern medicine
PHds is a common level of education in my family with 3 generation of surgeon (no im not a rich privileged or a trusty i abandoned the paradigm of standard education)
I have been afforded the best in medical care including a year inpatient and decades of pharmaceuticals
and I am still intelligent to understand the dynamics of modern medicine
But at the base of my being, below my operational intellect I felt the differential in my being when i used marijuana opposed to american pharmaceuticals
my spirituality was expressed in a non-intellectual internal observation that trumped the physiological, social and intellectual paradigms that were built and were :enslaving: my potential
this spirituality lead me to build a relationship with a plant that led to believing in what I sense balanced against the intellectual
in this manner I have found it easier to disseminate someone who is lying to you for their own benefit, because often my "gut" reveals an "instinct" or "feel" that betrays my intellect
i have found that my intellect is no match for the magnificence of the whole of my being, that i cannot comprehend life better than it is represented in the grand design of the human body
this said I feel that I can "understand" at a higher level than I can express with my intellect
its the understanding of this phenomenon that normally forces me to interact in debates like this
not at all where the article was coming from.not that quantum mechanics cant exonerate some of the alternative healing philosophies teachings, but the article was written from an presented IMHO as a piece that dismisses the whole of alternative non-scientific mainstream medicine and I think that while there is a benefit to knowing what is real or not, the way it is being presented frowns upon people looking outside the corrupt mainstream for solutions
The article is simply saying that trying to use quantum physics to support all manner of spiritual 'build your own universe' scenarios is a misapplication and wholly unsupported nonscience.there is nothing fundamentally wrong with science or spirituality just the application there of
and that application as seen in the buddhist perspective might be considered karma
that is my contention, not with the intellectual of IC mag, but with the presentation of information that would alienate a segment of our diverse community
my name is weird, I hope that sets the expectations I have for everyone![]()
really i bring no judgement i just wish for harmony among us as we celebrate our differences because that is where you build strength in community
