Ego vs Awareness/consciousness
#14
RE: Ego vs Awareness/consciousness
Yes, you could describe the universe as a wave function itself. A wave function describes the state a system of matter/energy is in and the system could be the entire universe. I never disagreed on this point but the system is also made up of subsystems. You could say the fact the universal waveform has never collapsed is that there is no outside observer, disproving God with this interpretation.

So you could say that before awareness arose the universe was pure chance and probability. Anything could just pop into and out of existence at any time.

Yes, I find the many worlds interpretation more interesting just because of the vast amount of possibilities , but I don't think it's more or less plausible than most of the rest.
