..........scientific and peer reviewed............ Wink

You are a total joke Lady.  Smile

How can you expect something spiritual and superior to the physical-material aspect to be scrutinized by
the physical science?
Since when the small and inferior aspect can understand the big and superior aspect?

You never thought about it Lady, did you?  Bird


Lol, then why did you offer it up as "proof", Ricky, when it's not? Bet you never thought of that did you? [emoji57] If there isn't any way to scientifically prove your beliefs, just say so. It's so much easier on everyone that way.

How can be possible to be aware when your consciousness is not active?

Ah.  Apparently your grasp of the English language is as execrably bad as your knowledge of neurology.  If you can't tell the difference between "unconsciousness" and "lack of self-consciousness," there's no hope for you.  One can be wide awake and not mentally focused on oneself -- A state that I regularly experience when working on some interesting task.

Yes, I have this "flow" thing figured out and active in My own life on a regular basis.  It's a great place to be.

No no and no! The right emoji is I'm all ears! !!!
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.

Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.

Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.

Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.

Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

That is a fucking outrage, kettle chips are mostly made up of reincarnated young ballet dancers.

How could you?
You may refer to me as "Oh High One."

LOL. I think Ricky spends more time on deciding which emojis he's going to use in his responses than he does on their actual content.

One day however it will be you that will realize that by doing this you are not getting anywhere.
Not only that but you also will realize that this physical dimension can not solve the main human problem
such as the permanent peace of mind.  Lightbulb

Now why would I even want "permanent peace of mind"?  I thrive on challenges and ongoing learning.  I'm also not the least bit interested in eternal life, so your philosophy contains nothing that I actually want.

In my experience curiosity gives me both excitement and peace of mind.

So permanent wonder would be, well, wonderful.

Gee, I never thought about that Sof.  Indubitably

Now I know why when I eat them they squish in the mouth and when they get down in the stomach they
jump up and down.  Panic

That is bizarre Sof.  Huh

Thanks for unravel this mystery.  Thanks

Confused again Astr.  Smile

Consciousness goes in degrees.  Indubitably
We got different degrees of consciousness all the time.
When you sleep the consciousness may be at a level 0.
As you wake up it may rose to level 1 or 2 and as soon as you are fully awake it will go up and up
according to your capabilities so your story about unconsciousness and lack of self-consciousness is
all very very confused and self complicated when the reality is very very simple to understand.  Lightbulb
