Consciousness on the other hand is something abstract and therefore got to be understood by a science that is not physical.
You never heard of?
Well, you are not the only one MA.
That however is a different story.
Sooner or later you like everybody else will hear of.
There is all the eternity to find out.

Cannot your non-physical science produce independently verifiable results regarding the existence of unembodied spirits? If not, why call it science?

For instance, if I could send five graduate students to pay surprise visits to five of the holiest non-physical science practitioners available, and the practitioners could provide the same correct answer to a question for which only I know the answer and which can't be physically ascertained by anyone else, that would be evidence that they have access to information in a way that physical science can't yet duplicate. Even two out of five would be significant enough to warrant further investigation.

Without evidence of that caliber, all you're providing are unsupported assertions.


That is positively possible provided that these practitioners (forget the holiest) follow the path to the very top of human existence.
That type of knowledge however is not only achieved by those who practice yoga meditation or intuitional science.
Any body can achieve the knowledge that God is real and that everything is God.
As far as you avoid karma (actions and reactions) then your consciousness expand to the level that you realize who you are and how the whole system works.
As the cloud disappear under the strong sun also the knowledge appear as you stop creating more karma for yourself.
In this case you don't need to engage in intuitional science but this way is a lot harder than by practicing intuitional science.  Indubitably

Supreme knowledge is already there.
We don't need to develop ourselves with any study.
All we need to make it ours is to remove the clouds that prevent us from see this supreme truth that is why is called intuitional.
We can not create what is already there.
Even physical science only discover what is already there in nature.

Got it now?  Shy

Well, well ,well..........

Actually is the other way around.
Aren't atheists that think that the universe pop up as per magic and nobody run it?
That belief is the opposite of what science teach.
Since when science tell us that something come from nothing?

I guess you never thought about that Fat, did you?  I'm all ears!
