Source: my-big-TOE.com, channelmcgilchrist.com



This discussion is between two scientists on the nature of our reality and ourselves. It is a stellar example of something significant: two researchers from different fields who have explored truth for decades share their unique perspectives and shared conclusions.

Their approaches may be different, but it is exciting when their conclusions are fundamentally the same. It's all about the bigger picture!

“Our talent for division, for seeing the parts, is of staggering importance -second only to our capacity to transcend it, in order to see the whole”
Iain McGilchrist

EPISODE SUMMARY

Dr. Richard Alan Miller has a long and extensive resume in the fields of Physics, Metaphysics and Agriculture. Here are just some of the highlights from his very rich and varied resume – from solid state physics to states of consciousness and much in between…

Prodigious from an early age, two of Richard Miller’s high school science projects were adopted by NASA, including one used in the Mariner 4 mission to determine the amount of water on the planet Mars. At age 16 he built a linear accelerator and hydrogen bubble chamber for a science fair project and was the first American to demonstrate particles going faster than the speed of light.

He’s been involved in research and projects – many at top secret level – that have formed the basis of several modern-day scientific inventions. Miller’s research in the field of paranormal began as a graduate physicist working 11 years with Navy Intel (Anesthesiology). His work includes foundational papers on A Holographic Concept of Reality and Embryonic Holography and work with microwaves and synthetic telepathy. He was used as Timothy Leary’s experimental guinea pig to see what the effects of LSD were when taken by a Mensa level genius.

Dr. Miller was the real-life character that the X-Files’ Fox Mulder was based on – investigating unexplained phenomena for Navy Seal Corp and MRU, which put him in the path of many incredible life experiences, including an encounter with an alien and travel to an underground Antarctic Nazi base.
He conducted ESP experiments with astronaut Edgar Mitchell on the dark side of the Moon, and he developed early protocols and trained Navy Seals in ESP and Super Soldier techniques.

As an agriculturalist, he is a recognized expert in the growing and marketing of crops and herbals and has invented ingenious and effective farm machinery specific to the type of crops to be harvested and had input into production of some of the largest crop producers in the world.
He’s even played tennis at a Davis Cup level.

His metaphysical works spring from his mother and grandmother, who were renowned psychic investigators and he himself is a high-level initiate of several traditions and lodges. His grandfather was the magician who trained Houdini.

Dr. Miller’s key strength is in “joining the dots” and drawing from his vast pool of research and insight to find ingenious links and applications for designs, projects and development.

As an author he has written prolifically, with some most recent releases including Power Tools for the 21st Century and ESP Induction Through Forms of Self-Hypnosis. He has also recently released audio courses in Metaphysics.

And all of that is just the tip of the iceberg! Dr. Richard Alan Miller is a ‘whirlwind experience’ to behold.
A pioneer in the annals of metaphysical and paranormal exploration, he is re-emerging as a preferred internet radio guest at a critical time in humanity’s, evolution where metaphysics and practical survival converge.

Jared Murphy is the researcher and author of “It’s Not Aliens, Worse, It’s Us: Discovering Our Lost History” & Podcaster. Jared will be live and in person at America’s Stonehenge Saturday, May 1st, 2021 and giving a 3 hour lecture, meet and greet, & book signing! Tickets are on sale now so join via a virtual connection or in person at America’s Stonehenge in New Hampshire!

When two brilliant researchers with nearly a century of experience and experiments between them, agree on the commonalities of their findings on consciousness, a truly fascinating discussion follows!

In this interview, Stephan Schwartz, interdisciplinary scholar, remote viewing research founder, and one of the preeminent remote viewers in the world, and Tom Campbell, physicist and consciousness researcher, each present their views on how science and their discoveries on consciousness can help inspire you to create a better world.

Scientist, futurist, award-winning author of both fiction and nonfiction Stephan A. Schwartz is a Distinguished Associated Scholar of the California Institute for Human Science, Distinguished Consulting Faculty Saybrook, University, and a BIAL Foundation Fellow. He is a columnist for the journal Explore, and editor of the daily web publication Schwartzreport.net in both of which he covers trends that are affecting the future. For over 40 years, as an experimentalist, he has been studying the nature of consciousness. Schwartz is part of the small group that founded modern Remote Viewing research and is the principal researcher studying the use of Remote Viewing in anthropology and archaeology.

In addition to his own non-fiction books and novels, he is the author of more than 250 technical reports, papers, academic book chapters, prefaces, and introductions, and has made over a thousand presentations to universities, institutions, and government agencies around the world. His work has been covered worldwide by numerous magazines, newspapers, and television productions, and he is the recipient of the Parapsychological Association Outstanding Contribution Award, the U.S. Navy’s Certificate of Commendation, OOOM Magazine's (Germany) 100 Most Inspiring People in the World Award, and the 2018 Albert Nelson Marquis Award for Outstanding Contributions, and is listed in multiple Who’s Who.

Trey Downes with Tom Campbell on The Power of Imagination | July 24, 2022

Source: my-big-TOE.com



An insightful interview by Trey Downes that delves into our nature and why imagination is so powerful.

From Trey's interview:
In the early 1970s, Tom began researching altered states of consciousness with Bob Monroe at the Monroe Institute in Virginia using basic scientific methodologies. Campbell took what he experienced directly and learned from all of the experiments at the Institute and wrote the trilogy “My Big TOE” (TOE stands for “theory of everything”).

According to Tom, “it represents the results and conclusions of 40+years of careful scientific exploration of the boundaries and contents of reality from both the physical and metaphysical viewpoints…By demanding high quality repeatable, empirical, evidential data to separate what's real (exists independently and externally) from what's imaginary or illusory; Campbell has scientifically derived this general model of reality.”

Graham Hancock and Rupert Sheldrake | Beyond the Brain: Explore the mystery of consciousness | Jan. 29, 2022

Consciousness – we all have it, yet it’s one of the greatest mysteries of science. Exactly what it is, how it works, what it’s for, and what its implications are for our understanding of “reality”, remain matters of speculation, not of fact. 

In this dialogue, originally recorded for the Beyond the Brain conference series author Graham Hancock and biologist Rupert Sheldrake offer some food for thought. 

For background on the censoring of Graham’s and Rupert’s TEDx talks, and links to the original uncensored talks, see here

VISIONARY, the new edition of Graham Hancock’s book on the mystery of consciousness (formerly titled Supernatural) is published in the United States on 4th April 2022. 

To get a sense of the wide variety of issues explored in VISIONARY check out Chapter Nineteen, free to read online here.

And note, whereas the audiobook of Supernatural was read by a third-party narrator, the audiobook of VISIONARY is narrated by Graham Hancock himself. 

In some ways – to be welcomed – we are reinventing the ancient tradition of storytelling around the campfire, and with this in mind Graham hopes to launch his new podcast in 2022

John Waters and I discuss science, spirituality, and the coronavirus crisis. In a wide ranging conversation we move from mainstream media manipulation to meaning and purpose in life, faith and the existence of a higher power, the meaning of freedom and our growing obsession with so-called safety, science as the new religion, and the spiritual battle and assault on human consciousness which now threatens our survival. Something very dark is unfolding at this time which cannot simply be explained away in the name of a public health emergency. - legalise-freedom.com

The mainstream view of reality is based on time and space being fundamental. Past, present, and future lie on a linear axis, while our five senses interpret events occurring within a three-dimensional world. For well over a century quantum physics has been painting a very different picture of reality, but still we continue to cling to a very limited and incomplete model.

The current research in artificial intelligence and transhumanism on which so many hang their hopes for our future simply misunderstands the nature of consciousness. Should we truly wish to advance as a species, we must fully integrate the insights of the quantum realm and cutting edge consciousness research into our view of life, the cosmos, and potential meaning and purpose in existence itself.

If we open ourselves to the possibility that mind, not matter, is fundamental, then many of the mysteries which science either denies or ignores can be woven into a richer and much more colourful tapestry of life. Dreams, psychic phenomena, and the paranormal and supernatural events which form part of human experience can finally be integrated into individual and collective consciousness in a meaningful way. This more expansive and holistic understanding of reality can help us unlock our true potential.

Tom Campbell | Conscious Computers and Consciousness in a VR | July 3, 2021

This video focuses on the nature of consciousness from the perspective of PMR science.
Conscious computers have long been a topic of interest, and Campbell has included his views on them here from the unique perspective of his own (My Big TOE) theory of everything -- a model with consciousness as the fundamental source of the virtual reality that we call the physical universe.

Consciousness is defined within MBT as awareness with choice or equivalently: awareness with free will or awareness with a finite decision space.

A system that can make rational or meaningful choices is said to have free will if its choices are impossible to predict. This necessary uncertainty can be generated by complex self-changing systems. 

He compares two types of choice making (chess playing) computers: the brute force approach of IBM’s Deep Blue and Google’s more elegant (and more effective) self-actualized AlphaZero neural net (NN). Neural nets can indeed have free will, but they cannot be constructed to have awareness. Awareness can only be attained if an IUOC choses that neural net to serve as its avatar within the PMR VR.

Campbell follows both the top-down process of VR rendering and the bottom-up process of VR evolution to where awareness meets free will. To where fundamental consciousness begins making the free will choices of its VR avatar.
Campbell continues to present the logic for consciousness being fundamental. He compares the significance and value of our subjective and objective realities and explains that both subjective and objective facts need to be explained by any comprehensive Theory Of Everything.
