Mr Jonnethon,

Yeah weird stuff.  If you liked it, drop a eye on My big TOE.  A doctor in physic with amazing traveling ability!  It gives amazing knowledge!

Hallo All,
Thanks for that link, PhantasyMan, a very interesting paper. I second all the above. PhantasyMan is right, Tom Campbell in MBT (My Big Toe) assembles all these concepts, and takes them a stage further based on his own non-physical explorations (which go back over 30 years, starting out with Bob Monroe). In essence, that the VR that we call our physical reality is created by, and out of, a vast digital consciousness network, as part of the evolution of that consciousness into a more organised state (physicist-speak: "lower entropy", what we call "love"). As bits of that consciousness, we're all in it together, striving to approach that love state (or should be), and when we ditch our VR bodies, we carry on evolving within the many layers of the consciousness One, or come back for more VR learning. And as Campbell emphasises, we can all access the wider consciousness network (non-physical, from our perspective only) by becoming more love-like and using the techniques many here are so gifted at.

It's all fascinating stuff, isn't it?!

Best wishes,

Alfred

As Bill Hicks said so famously, "It's just a ride". Some are here to learn what works and some are here to learn what does not work and some are just here. I don't think it's about moving towards love, but moving towards understanding that lowers the entropy. With love comes all that need to heal everyone and create a kinder gentler world, but I think it is the scariness of C1 that attracts us to it. The more we understand it the less scary it is and we move on, but that understanding will never come from fear of it or from love of it for that matter. Understanding is the balance point. Taking note of the mechanics that bring experience about is where the learning comes into play.

I spend time on Campbell's board and I was excited to read his books and they certainly spoke to me that virtual reality seems most probable, but I find his information to be a bit too heady much of the time. His best reckonings are his simplest ones. I don't need to know all the infinitesimal reasons why things are as they are with the rendering and the big computer and the even the big cheese he fondly speaks of. I just want to know how everything affects me and how I affect it. I suppose I had to go with Campbell's plotline to get where I am now. I wouldn't say I advanced beyond it by any means but I think I'm holed up in the middle somewhere waiting for the next Ah Ha moment.

Yours,
Beau

As I remember the only "danger" Campbell sites to thinking of The Matrix movie as a model is to think that outside the matrix is another physical reality based on the same physical laws as the matrix itself.

Stone, you might try doing more reading and less writing here and video game playing.  The Monroe and Moen series of books and Tom Campbell's "My Big TOE" will give you much more material to ponder than this site and in a more organized fashion.  That can either confirm, change or expand some of your ideas or all of the above.  Like Beau, I don't accept any one set of beliefs or ideas offered by one teacher, writer or commentator, but rather explore and see what works for me.  However, reading a number of authors in this area is very valuable in that process.
