1
00:00:00,031 --> 00:00:17,871
consciousness is not considered non-local as I understand non-local in quantum physics consciousness is considered

2
00:00:19,724 --> 00:00:22,927
undescribed by quantum physics.

3
00:00:23,248 --> 00:00:49,056
It's that which is outside of quantum, outside of physics, outside of what is describable by physics, except as being what, what's his name, what's the guy, the guy with the processes anyway, process one, it's considered to be the process one, the decision making, right, this whole thing that got everyone up in arms about how

4
00:00:50,133 --> 00:00:52,035
it all depends on which decision you make.

5
00:00:52,075 --> 00:01:02,748
If you decide to do this experiment, or if you decide to do that experiment, actually that determines the framework in which you're talking about.

6
00:01:05,752 --> 00:01:09,276
So actually, to me, it sounds a lot like dualism.

7
00:01:10,878 --> 00:01:18,047
What Henry Stapp and what orthodox quantum physics discusses, there's process one, process two.

8
00:01:18,398 --> 00:01:24,025
Process two is that which can be calculated and described by quantum physics.

9
00:01:24,225 --> 00:01:27,069
Process one is what initiates process two.

10
00:01:28,671 --> 00:01:33,817
And so that's quite dual, actually.

11
00:01:34,538 --> 00:01:44,710
But Stab actually, if you look at his articles, he has an article on non-dualism, for example.

12
00:01:45,466 --> 00:01:52,276
And he says, you know, there's no reason to think of it as being dualistic in the sense of two different entities.

13
00:01:52,917 --> 00:01:56,863
It could be just separate poles, I think he says.

14
00:01:57,383 --> 00:02:00,508
You know, you have an experience and you have the two aspects of it.

15
00:02:01,029 --> 00:02:05,415
There could be just aspects of the experiment experience, which, you know, I mean,

16
00:02:07,403 --> 00:02:13,753
What I don't get is why people are so fixed on finding something non-dualist.

17
00:02:14,414 --> 00:02:19,022
I guess it just kind of makes you feel good to think that it can all be reduced to one thing.

18
00:02:19,042 --> 00:02:21,505
And I don't really see that.

19
00:02:22,407 --> 00:02:30,019
I mean, I understand how it's kind of nice to think of, but I don't see how it's any more logical or rational.

20
00:02:30,607 --> 00:02:37,179
It's just kind of this reductionist or, I don't know, this attempt by science.

21
00:02:37,219 --> 00:02:40,065
They're trying to find the grand unifying theory of everything, right?

22
00:02:40,646 --> 00:02:47,298
They want to get it down to one, which I don't really see the point.

23
00:02:47,338 --> 00:02:48,320
It is what it is, right?

24
00:02:48,340 --> 00:02:51,186
Whether it's one or two, it is what it is.

25
00:02:51,466 --> 00:02:53,610
And that's much more important than counting.

26
00:02:54,350 --> 00:02:56,033
Or, you know, it's actually many.

27
00:02:56,794 --> 00:02:59,179
There was an argument between these two monks.

28
00:02:59,319 --> 00:03:02,905
One said there was three monks, or two people anyway.

29
00:03:02,925 --> 00:03:06,411
One said there are three kinds of feeling, and the other one said there are five kinds of feeling.

30
00:03:06,532 --> 00:03:08,675
And then they came to the Buddha and asked him who was right.

31
00:03:09,076 --> 00:03:15,868
And the Buddha said there are 108 types of feeling or something like that, just to show them they were being stupid.
