Reality Unveiled

by Ziad Masri

I realized that the void inside can’t be filled; not because it’s too vast, but because it’s an illusion.

96 percent of “reality” is simply invisible to us.

can only see what it is programmed to see.

99.9999999999996 percent of the atom is literally empty

But if there is such an infinitesimally small amount of “solid” matter in the universe, then why does everything look and feel so undeniably solid to us?

quantum physicists have discovered (much to their shock) that everything is connected as one thing that is merely appearing to be many things.

Only true on a very small scale

The ocean is a helpful metaphor here, as we can see seemingly separate waves, and even identify one wave as being different and apart from another wave. And yet, can we truly say they are separate?

Made me think about autonomy. Are we really autonomous? This brings up the nature vs nurture argument and I'll add thidea that we are so finely chemically balanced that perhaps we would all make the same choices if given the same influences from our own chemistry and exterior inputs.

some people’s brains are wired differently from birth, 6 and they see the world as a continuous interconnected wave of energy,

The reference for this is complete BS. Swan is a 34 YO uneducated spiritual teacher

Unity. Everything is unified. Everything is One. Separation is the true illusion.

Jumped right to causation. Might be correlation

took into account every possible variable,

That means the data may have been worked to achieve a desired result. Which is what critics say. The only group claiming replication are those groups that bear the Maharishi name after the Maharishi Effect.

we have been led to believe by classical physics that everything is separate and that we can’t change something other than by exerting a physical force upon it

This is Newton's first law and is still concidered valid

whether thoughts, words, and music could have any effect on water.

Experiments lackex a blind. Replication shows very weak significance. AI shows almost no effect. Criticism of th experiment is in all the subjective interpritations and all the ways in which human hand can distort the sample.

How else can we explain how an electron would change its behavior, one time acting as a seemingly solid particle and another time acting as a wave of energy depending on whether it is being observed? If an independent and separate Creator created the universe and filled it with living and inanimate things, then the nonliving things would not respond to the mere thoughts of the livings things.

Talked about in Hawking's A Brief History of Time

thought of burning the plant, at that very moment the polygraph charts went crazy,

Not replicated. Actual threat communication amongst plants has been

if you pray over your food, being thankful for it and feeling a sense of love, then it somehow accepts its role

children who remember their past lives.

This means that through either consciousness or advanced technology, it is possible to go to any “space” in time, whether seemingly forward or backward,

I don't take Einstein's theory of relative time to mean this. I take it to mean that time is relative because of the diference in perceived events due to one's proximity ; kind of like parlayx .

Assume, if you will, that there exists an infinite Being.

Assume also that the nature of this infinite, non-dual Being is pure love.

it splits itself into an infinite number of sub-selves. With that, the universe is born.

every seemingly separate thing is actually one energy vibrating at an infinite number of different frequencies.

It’s easy to love someone who is very loving. It’s a whole other lesson to love someone who is cruel and hurtful.

But why does it have to be that way

karma does not end when one physical incarnation ends.

instead of the slow, random evolution espoused by Charles Darwin, where adaptation and mutation occurs over very long periods of time, what has actually happened is instantaneous quantum leaps in evolution over only one or two generations. And even more interestingly, they have been happening at about 26,000-year intervals.

THE EMBRACE OF LOVE

A NEW WORLD

I like the thought and suggest going smaller. To visualise the ideal world opens us to naivete. Think about your ideal neighbourhood or community

“to be happy.”

I like what Jordan Peterson says on this - what we really want is not to be anxious and miserable

grasping for something outside ourselves to “give us” that happiness

what happens when you give something the power to provide you happiness? It can just as easily take away that happiness

This is the essence of the awakened life. It’s a life wherein you’re not the victim of circumstances.

progress

I think this is key. We are willing to go through rough patches so long as we're making progress. Part of that is relative. We Feel we are making progress so long as we are not the worst.

as the hit movie The Secret set ablaze a worldwide interest in the law of attraction (the idea that you attract to you those life circumstances that reflect your most emotionally charged thoughts).

The issue with positive thinking and the law of attraction is that they turn our entire focus on getting what we desire

Begin to think of all your strong attachments in life. Think about your attachment to your family, children, spouse, partner, money, material possessions, and anything else that comes to mind. Now, taking each one in turn, fully welcome and embrace that attachment. This is very counterintuitive because our instinct is to push it away, or try to get rid of it, in order to let go of attachment to it. But the exact opposite is true. What you resist persists, and it’s in gentle, nonjudgmental welcoming that true release occurs.

repeat the same process with your strongest desires.

“I am unconditionally loved by creation itself, and nothing that I think or do can change that. The darkness I see within is not a defect, but my teacher, to which I am grateful.”

I have had the most profound blessing of directly experiencing a glimpse of this higher reality and therefore know, beyond mere belief, it exists.

Here it is. This is where some of this comes from. Question Is why hasn't he repeated it and written about it? It's Like interpretting a dream
