Is conciousness the root of all being?
« on: 04/12/2009 13:30:03 »
Eddie Harris asked the Naked Scientists:
   
There are a group of scientists who are breaking away from the traditional concept that matter is the ground of all being and proclaiming that consciousness is the ground of all being as per discoveries in quantum physics.

A recent book published by one of these scientists is entitled Creative Evolution which he claims fills the gaps left by Darwin and states that missing links are quantum leaps made by consciousness. Another book by the same scientist is "God Is Not Dead".

Your thought please on these latest scientific developments.

What do you think?

    It's selfish to believe in a completely solipsistic universe (the study of a universe based soley on the universe); the only way this theory can survive is only from a philosophical and metaphysical sense. And yet, metaphysics is rooted in physics, so neglected a complete description of a physical sense seems not to make sense itself since the brain is not only the conduit of consciousness, but matter is the constituent of the mind and consciousness itself.

    Wish there were Scientists asking questions!  My theory went against the matter view of the universe to the subspace view, where space is made out of subspaces.  But I can not get a discussion started because everyone is stuck on quarks, guons, gravitrons and the like.  My books are for free at http://stores.lulu.com/walkerdb [nofollow]   Subspace is the model for awareness.
