There are far reaching implications and ties in consciousness scientifically with some classical woo...
Tell me what you think. I don't think he's an alternative looney. More like cutting edge thinking.
Wow, fascinating. He began to loose me in the 42nd or 43rd minute when he started talking about his theory giving a basis for out of body experience and even an afterlife. But then he goes on to explain how he is not a dualist and I think he does a good job of that. Personally I think it far more likely that out of body experience has the same substance as dreams, hypothetical experience which never becomes grounded in conscious experience. Obviously both arise from brain states so I would say that is where we can locate them in the universe, in our heads. And no I don't see how they ever become self sustaining beyond and without that brain, so no after life. But that is easy for me to say because I've never been tempted by the idea of coexisting alternative worlds.
I owe the OP an apology. I hadn't looked into this thread before now because I assumed it was just for laughs. (What would give me such an idea?) But I'm enjoying it immensely. Tremendous food for thought. And there is no one on these boards whose qualifications begin to measure up to this guy. Of course I don't therefore accept any of his conclusions uncritically but neither would I be so bold as to dismiss them out of hand.
