It's a series of clips from various spiritual leaders about the nature of reality. You will love it I'm sure.<BR/><BR/>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvUTozuiBF0<BR/><BR/>Check it out.<BR/><BR/>Regards,<BR/>WinstonWWu777https://www.blogger.com/profile/04368933194799864846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3683019342240329622.post-38074276113088326472008-09-18T21:49:00.000+10:002008-09-18T21:49:00.000+10:00Hi Jim, I've always been very fascinated by the Ho...Hi Jim, I've always been very fascinated by the Holographic Universe concept. I've read the entire book "The Holographic Universe" by Michael Talbot. One thing it never addresses is: If matter is not solid and if the universe is a hologram, then why do objects appear to be solid? Why can't we pass through walls? <BR/><BR/>But like most New Agers, Talbot merely brushes off and says if our power of belief were increased multiple times, then we could pass through walls, but that's hogwash. No one has ever been able to demonstrate that. Any rational person knows full well that you can believe 100 percent that the wall is not there, yet if you try to walk through it you will still bump your head.<BR/><BR/>Also, if I put a brown table in a room full of 100 people without saying anything, they will all see the brown table, even if I tell them it's a blue table. That implies that the brown table has an existence in objective reality. Talbot and the other holographic universe theorists don't explain their theory in light of this.<BR/><BR/>Also, the "thought creates reality" principle is too popular among New Agers, yet it's never really defined nor has its limitations been clarified. And New Agers avoid any hard questions about it. I just wrote an essay about this, posing a dozen unanswered questions for New Agers, here:<BR/><BR/>http://www.happierabroad.com/Debunking_New_Age.htm<BR/><BR/>Check it out sometime Jim and maybe you can comment on it sometime.<BR/><BR/>Thanks,<BR/>WinstonWWu777https://www.blogger.com/profile/04368933194799864846noreply@blogger.com
