Time journal named as one of many prime 100 heroes and icons of the century the writer of the nationwide bestseller meta-human unleashing your infinite potential the one and I guarantee you solely Deepak Chopra it’s so good to have you ever thanks thanks thanks so thanks a lot for becoming a member of me I’ve had the great fortune of truly sitting within the viewers once you had been doing considered one of your guided meditations okay meditation is one thing that utterly modified my life what I like about your story although is that you simply took a fairly bizarre path to getting the place you are actually and I would like to stroll by a few of that since you began as a fairly easy medical physician what was that like when did you start to suppose that there could be one thing extra so I took my coaching in inner medication the cardboard licensed and it then I went on to coach in one thing referred to as endocrinology which is the research of hormones after which in neuroendocrinology which is definitely mind chemistry and once I was coaching that is within the 70s within the mid 70s we had a brand new approach referred to as radio immunoassay simply been found the individuals who really created the approach gained Nobel Prize in medication Rosalyn Yalow was the scientist I bear in mind you may measure for the primary time chemical compounds they’re referred to as peptides within the mind and what I instantly acknowledged with the assistance of my colleagues was that mind chemistry was the clue to the connection between what was occurring in your internal life and what was occurring in close by physique these chemical compounds referred to as neuro peptides neuro means within the mind peptides they’re proteins and so they’re really the molecules of emotion serotonin dopamine oxytocin opiates individuals are hooked on opiates today however you make your personal opiates too and so in reality as soon as we began taking a look at these chemical compounds we realized that they had been additionally immunomodulators the modulated the immune system fine-tuned it in case you have a really aggressive immune system you get issues like autoimmune sickness allergy symptoms in case you have a really sleepy immune system you are extra susceptible to infections and most cancers however these peptides are neuro immunomodulators and that they modulate the exercise to fantastic tune the exercise of the immune system so out of the blue I noticed the connection between thoughts physique and spirit however then I used to be additionally really intrigued by the truth that you may have two sufferers who had the identical sickness noticed the identical physician obtained the identical remedy and had utterly completely different outcomes one may survive one may die and in between there was a variety of outcomes in order that led me to mind-body medication in the end to combine so once you first begin taking a look at that what was that type of strategy of discovery I do know that you simply had been a baby of the 60s I do know that you simply did LSD like how a lot of that is exhibiting you that there is one thing past conventional medication and and the way do you start to piece these items collectively nicely I did that Steve once I was in medical faculty and twice I used to be not even twenty at the moment and it did give me the perception that our regular on a regular basis expertise of what we name actuality is the hypnosis of social conditioning they’re really actuality shifts as your consciousness shifts so to place it metaphorically I had my first glimpse of the matrix and I made a decision that I needed to not know what we all know however what’s the supply of realizing okay it is not what you recognize you recognize what you recognize today you’ll be able to look it up go google it so who it is not essential what to know anyone can discover out something about something today you recognize I can search for what number of galaxies there are within the universe or how does epigenetics work how does the mind perform that is not the important thing to creativity the kree to creativity and better consciousness is how have you learnt what you recognize what’s the supply of realizing and expertise what’s it that is aware of the expertise of the physique what’s it that is aware of the expertise of the thoughts what’s it that is aware of the expertise referred to as the colour crimson and the place is that have occurring lots of people will let you know it is within the mind however I can guarantee you there is not any colours within the mind there is not any coloration crimson once you take a look at the crimson coloration there is not any coloration right here within the mind or in the event you think about the colour or in the event you think about an attractive sundown or in the event you think about what your experiences together with your mom or anyone feelings the mind solely reveals chemical exercise that is the arduous drawback of consciousness so what’s the supply outline that for us there’s some type of leap that isn’t understood between how these there’s some threshold occasion of all of those atoms clustering and this factor that we name a human and this factor that we name a human mind however there’s nonetheless an unknown second at which we develop into acutely aware is that what you are speaking about no the arduous drawback of consciousness is solely acknowledged in a single sentence how do chemical compounds and atoms and neuro chemistry or neuro electrical energy produce this expertise there is not any rationalization for this you are taking a look at me proper now all that is coming to your eyes are invisible photons there is not any crimson waves coming to your eyes okay invisible photons they don’t have any coloration they don’t have any form they do not even have items of mass okay so they are not then they haven’t any dimensionality the photons that you simply use you are uncovered to proper now which might be supplying you with the expertise of your personal physique of me and this room that is all that is coming to make use of electrical data all that is going to your mind is {an electrical} present it is referred to as an motion potential however you are experiencing this room you are experiencing your personal physique you are experiencing ideas in reality you are expertise factor what we name actuality on a regular basis actuality consider it or not know that no neuroscientists can let you know how that occurs they will take a look at what they name neural correlates a correlation is just not a causation as we all know if the rooster crows within the morning and the Solar rises on the similar time we do not assume that the rooster brought on the Solar to rise however they’re correlated so your thoughts your mind and the bodily world are correlated experiences in a deeper realm of existence which isn’t in house or time okay so I need to drill deeper on that so what’s the factor that drives you is it to finish human struggling what’s that like in the event you needed to put that in a nutshell sure the aim of healers and in the end of all physicians ought to be to alleviate struggling now we have accomplished a fairly good job with assuaging what we name struggling that happens from acute sickness you break your leg you get an orthopedic surgeon to repair it you get pneumonia you are taking an antibiotic so we have accomplished a superb job on what we name the physicalist stage for acute sickness however then there’s one thing referred to as persistent sickness diabetes sort 2 irritation most cancers coronary heart illness autoimmune sickness accelerated getting older propensity to infections and we have not accomplished a superb job there as a result of what we’re realizing proper now that solely 5% of illness associated gene mutations absolutely penetrant which suggests they assure the illness gene mutation is a genetic mistake so good instance Angelina Jolie had baraka gene and he or she had a mastectomy as a prevention double mastectomy as a result of that gene predicts that she would have gotten breast most cancers for that by the best way there are new applied sciences which might be rising together with gene modifying so even now that is doable not for most cancers however for issues like sickle-cell anemia you’ll be able to lower and paste a gene speaking about CRISPR yeah CRISPR you’ll be able to lower a pasted gene identical to you do an e mail you learn the bar chord delete the gene and insert the wholesome one it will have an effect on 5% of individuals 95% of gene mutations that trigger sickness are associated to life-style sleep managing stress and whether or not you meditate or not you train or not perhaps you do yoga not respiratory strategies the standard of your feelings diet private relationships social interactions atmosphere reference to nature affect your gene exercise we name it epigenetics so we have starting to do a superb job there however we aren’t there as an instance you removed all persistent sickness and acute sickness would people nonetheless endure and the reply is sure as a result of not like different species now we have one thing which is definitely fairly weird it is referred to as existential struggling we surprise why we exist we surprise why we get outdated and might we stop that we surprise why we get infirm and lose our reminiscences as we get outdated can we stop that however we are also afraid of demise okay can we stop that and reply is organic demise is predicated on a false premise which is you’re your biology and you’re your physique and you’re a thoughts the place I am going with the arduous drawback of consciousness is you are not your physique you are not your thoughts you are not the expertise of the world you are the consciousness through which all this expertise happens to look at a thought is to know that you simply’re not a thought to look at an emotion is to know that you simply’re not the emotion to look at the physique is to know that you simply’re not this bundle of sensations and perceptions so who’re you what’s it that is aware of a thought what’s it that is aware of the notion the colour crimson is there a coloration crimson anyplace within the bodily universe or is it simply an expertise I assure you no scientists can let you know that the colour crimson exists as a bodily entity within the universe it is an expertise in human consciousness not within the consciousness of a bat who would not see colours however experiences the echo of ultrasound so what’s the coloration crimson to a bag I feel this can be a good place to return to your LSD expertise yeah so taking a look at psychedelics and the impression that they’ve on individuals’s existential dread over dying so I do know they um they’ve accomplished research giving it to terminal most cancers sufferers and from what I perceive it has a fairly radical shift in individuals’s stage of concern as someone who’s by no means accomplished psyckadeli what what’s that have of the dissolution of the ego like the place is it taking individuals what like is there a method so that you can type of metaphorically clarify what’s occurring there sure once you notice that the whole lot you thought was actual is just not actual once you additionally notice that who you suppose you’re is just not actual I’m NOT Deepak Chopra with this physique thoughts ego id that this can be a very provisional id if I say I am my physique thoughts you recognize I used to be as soon as a fertilized ovum then I used to be a zygote an embryo a child a toddler a younger grownup and now this and this may disappear however once you notice that each one your title your kind and the whole lot you see is provisional two issues occur to some individuals they’ve speedy what we may solely metaphorically referred to as the darkish night time of the soul they go right into a deep despair as a result of the whole lot they thought was actual is not actual together with their very own title kind physique and thoughts some individuals get so scared that they’ve a nasty journey some individuals cross that threshold when uncover nirvana or enlightenment and so they say wow I believed I used to be I used to be squeezed into the quantity of a physique within the span of a lifetime however I’m a timeless being that may morph myself into any expertise together with the human expertise which is wonderful however the human expertise can also be that which causes exist tential despair so the causes of human struggling because you introduced it up are introduced up in jap knowledge traditions as primary you endure as a result of you do not know who you’re you confuse your self together with your physique thoughts expertise quantity two you grasp and cling had experiences that are evanescent and transitory and dreamlike you say what occurred to your childhood it is over what occurred to yesterday it is over what occurred to 5 minutes in the past it is over what occurs to those phrases by the point you hear them they do not exist so you recognize Wittgenstein the German thinker mentioned we’re asleep a life is a dream however infrequently we get up sufficient to know that we’re dreaming so what do you get up to once you cross this threshold you get up to your true self which isn’t physique or thoughts however the consciousness through which that have is going on so greedy and clinging at a dream is the second explanation for human struggling the third is being afraid of something that is disagreeable ache abandonment being handled by somebody not respectfully in order that’s you recognize there is a model to sure experiences third explanation for struggling fourth is figuring out which is expounded together with your ego id and fifth is the concern of demise now they’re all linked they’re all the identical concern and they aren’t realizing who you’re that is the most important query that people or everyone ought to be asking Who am I what am I’m I the altering expertise of this physique which is a perceptual exercise am i the expertise of the altering thoughts or the altering character as a result of you do not have the identical character once you had been a child or perhaps even 10 years in the past what’s it on the foundation of this once you begin that reflective self inquiry ask your self Who am I what do I need what’s my goal what am i grateful for going to the stillness of meditation you’ve got what knowledge traditions have referred to as revelation revealed reality now you recognize that sounds very grand I’d say simply name it perception you recognize meditation mindfulness consciousness of physique consciousness of thoughts consciousness of psychological house consciousness of the net of relationship consciousness with that which we name the universe it leads you in the end to the attention of consciousness and once you uncover that that is Nirvana now are you acquainted with the time period Pan psychism sure so I had by no means heard of that earlier than and there is a cop-out however fascinating so I used to be gonna ask if that is the case as I perceive it Pan psychism is principally the consciousness itself is a power virtually like gravity so it’s in all places there is no such thing as a second the place sufficient atoms come collectively that you’ve sufficient complexity that consciousness arises that it’s really elementary and once I was studying {that a} human that is what I believed you had been saying I believed you had been saying it’s this factor that simply is ever-present so if that is not what you are saying no it is not however I am glad that scientists are getting into that course together with some very huge and essential thinkers and luminaries in each philosophy and science are getting into that course what they’re saying is simply what you mentioned that what we name consciousness is organized matter and that wherever there’s matter there’s consciousness from atom to galaxy okay so thoughts and matter go collectively from atom to galaxy that spanned psychism okay and it is obtained superb adherents proponents luminaries and essential minds saying that it is a breakthrough as a result of now you are not saying consciousness is simply within the mind you are saying it pervades the universe in the identical method as gravity and atoms and electrons however I am saying really there are not any atoms there are not any electrons gravity and power fields are human constructs so matter is a helpful assemble I am going past pen psychism into what is known as non duality which suggests there’s solely consciousness it is modifying itself in two sensations perceptions pictures emotions and ideas and we give names to that we give we give a reputation to a form and a coloration and a sensation we name it a cup we name it a hand we name it the Milky Method galaxy we name it atoms and power fields very helpful constructs in any other case you would not know methods to navigate on a regular basis expertise if I let you know I will meet you on the nook of 56th and Broadway you assume that is actual however we made up that that notation identical to we made up latitude and longitude and Greenwich Imply Time we did not say Botswana meantime have we made up the galaxies we made up the physique we made up gravity and power fields by we I imply a species of consciousness that is known as human so now my query turns into if that’s the case and all that exists is consciousness is there one thing behind that like why has consciousness given rise to people and do you see it going by like an evolutionary factor like how will we get right here and perhaps extra importantly why will we get right here I do not know if I can reply why aside from leisure however however however I can let you know what the pondering behind that is is there something behind consciousness no you’ll be able to’t get behind that’s base stage that is it yeah however that is referred to as pure consciousness okay now on a regular basis expertise is modified consciousness so proper now what you are experiencing is what we name the waking state of consciousness okay what do you imply by that the attention that I am conscious no the attention that’s experiencing a bodily physique and a bodily world with eyes open is known as waking state of consciousness okay okay so consciousness is modifying itself each time you open your eyes into this expertise proper and also you name it the bodily world now in the event you shut your eyes you’ve got one other state of consciousness the place you do not really expertise the bodily world you expertise sensations pictures ideas feelings tales it is like a dream as quickly as you shut your eyes you are experiencing you would possibly name it daydreaming however there is not any distinction between a dream and what you dream at night time the bodily world has disappeared there’s solely a psychological world then you definitely go deeper at night time even the psychological world disappears in what we name deep deep sleep now that’s the highest intelligence by the best way as a result of in deep sleep there’s unconscious processing occurring there’s creativity occurring there correlations being made there toxins being eliminated there’s an entire resetting of your reminiscences and consolidation of that so in deep sleep although there is no such thing as a expertise of a bodily or a psychological world it is a very clever extremely extremely correlated state through which unconscious processing is going on reminiscences are being consolidated creativeness is being refined and so forth although you don’t have any acutely aware expertise so consider these three states metaphorically such as you would consider water changing into ice because the bodily world okay water as water fluid dreamy water as vapour much more dreamy and fluctuating and ambiguous and contradictory and troublesome to understand however if you’d like little bit past that I am talking metaphorically you’d find yourself with what is known as the quantum vacuum which is the basic floor of existence in response to science okay however you are able to do that subjectively you’ll be able to transfer from the bodily world to the dream world to the sleep world and past to what’s referred to as elementary consciousness which is the supply of all realizing all expertise in knowledge traditions it is referred to as undifferentiated consciousness how’s that differ from non duality it’s non twin okay it is all buds of realizing all Knorr and all issues no it’s elementary floor of existence of the overall universe okay so non duality is to place it actually simplistic aliy that there is no such thing as a topic object it is simply all one factor which I am assume you’d say is pure acutely aware the topic object division is synthetic actuality is one wholeness consists of all topics all objects and all modes of realizing what now we have entry to is a human mode of realizing you recognize in my guide met a human I talked concerning the butterfly the Painted Woman who smells the world by her antennae okay chase the world by her toes sees the world with 30,000 lenses that transfer like a kaleidoscope okay this is the world by her wings what’s actuality to that little species some bugs see the world 360 levels okay as a result of they’ve these what we name complicated eyes with a number of lenses you’ll be able to solely see inside a sure vary however there are bugs that may see 360 levels so what’s actuality actuality what we name actuality what as we speak’s science calls actuality comes beneath the heading of naive realism Einstein was a naive realist and I am not saying this in a derogatory style it is it is it is a phrase within the science of philosophy naive realism signifies that the bodily world exists precisely as perceived by the 5 human senses now clearly that is not true different species expertise the world by completely different modes of sensory notion the second side of naive realism is that the bodily world as perceived by the 5 human senses would exist even when nobody was observing it nicely how do you show that and firstly it is naive as a result of we all know that the world is greater than what’s perceived by the 5 human senses so this leads us to an answer really of the arduous drawback of consciousness which is do away with the concept that the world is bodily what we name of the world as bodily even your bodily physique is a perceptual exercise and that perceptual exercise for you and me is a human perceptual exercise by human consciousness not by unhealthy consciousness not by mosquito consciousness not by plant consciousness which would slot in with band psychism however non-dualism says transcend that there’s just one consciousness that’s differentiating you recognize undifferentiated consciousness differentiating into these completely different species of consciousness that kind a matrix of acutely aware beings which might be collectively projecting this universe now I do know that you simply mentioned which you can’t reply the query why be do you ever ponder why like why we’d come into all these manifestations why they might have such a distinct concept in the event you say that consciousness is key then it will need to have a want and the need have to be I have to expertise myself and consciousness being undifferentiated timeless spaceless boundless can solely know itself by expertise so it modulates itself into these completely different styles of expertise virtually infinite and we name it the universe universe one music however in that one consciousness lets reground this now so that you do some actually fascinating private practices so I get it that is all an phantasm however you do monastic retreats you shave your head you shave your eyebrows you do every week on sure so stroll me by what is the energy in that the facility in that’s to out of the blue begin to develop into snug with questioning your routine certainties if I ask you what is that this you’d say it is a cup proper nicely in the event you had been a child you would not know this can be a cup this can be a form this can be a coloration this can be a kind this can be a sensation this can be a style and it is noise the remaining is a narrative it is a human story we created identical to we created cash on Wall Avenue on nation-states or colonial empires and we take that for actuality so when when you’ve got time to be nonetheless query your routine certainties you will notice that truly we all know nothing nothing the whole lot we all know is made up it is a human assemble and as soon as we’re embedded in that human idea we name it actuality we do not query what’s the supply of this expertise so taking retreats training conscious consciousness of physique of thoughts of psychological house of the net of relationship the thriller of existence it takes you slowly deeper to your true self which is the orchestrator of on a regular basis expertise what is the significance of silence as Rumi mentioned God’s language is silence the whole lot else is poor translation so is it listening to the unconscious so as an illustration a part of the rationale that meditation has been so highly effective for me is and I get we had been saying about correlation however as you mentioned it is very strongly correlated so respiratory from my diaphragm being quiet takes me out of the sympathetic nervous system and into the parasympathetic permits me to cut back my stress you have accomplished a number of analysis into that which is basically actually fascinating and it creates a quiet in my thoughts in order that I can faucet into the unconscious whereas I am awake which has been very highly effective makes me really feel way more artistic I am getting far-flung connections that I would not in any other case get in my thoughts so it has been very advantageous is that the identical expertise for you with silence or is there one thing I am lacking all of that is essential as a result of the second you begin going into the course of pure consciousness you go additionally within the course of homeostasis which is self regulation you go within the course of therapeutic you activate the parasympathetic nervous system me about a number of the science round there that that your your analysis has bared about cuz it is fairly spectacular we had we examined people who find themselves in a one-week retreat we name it the seduction of spirit which is a pleasant title and on the finish of the week and earlier than the week we examined them for gene exercise and irritation and plenty of different issues we discovered that genes that trigger self-regulation and therapeutic went up some 17 fold over baseline genes that trigger irritation which is the widespread background in persistent sickness and persistent irritation is the background genes that trigger persistent irritation went down the extent of the enzyme telomerase which influences how we age at a genetic stage telomere size went up considerably in some circumstances 40 p.c now this will all be defined by what we name epigenetics and it is a revolution and many individuals have replicated these findings now our research was accomplished in collaboration with scientists from Duke and Harvard in UCSF and UCSD and Scripps and so forth however different individuals are replicating discovering related knowledge if not precisely equivalent knowledge so this can be a huge revolution now for those who do not know epigenetics you give them only a fast breakdown yeah you are born with 25,000 genes out of your dad and mom you even have two million to twenty million bacterial genes in your intestine these bacterial genes are referred to as the microbiome the human genes are the genes you’ve got they work together with one another to supply all of the metabolites in your physique and produce what you name a organic organism and preserve its well being epigenetics says that every day expertise influences the exercise of your genes so that you’re born with a deck of playing cards however now you understand how to discover ways to play the deck of playing cards so you’ll be able to win the sport of life if you wish to use that metaphor and the so gene exercise is influenced by the issues I discussed sleep managing stress train yoga respiratory prana introspection conscious consciousness feelings diet reference to nature we are able to change our gene actions that means to alter the exercise of the genes you’ll be able to’t change the playing cards you had been right down to it however you’ll be able to change their exercise however you may also change your microbiome by altering your weight loss plan so you’ll be able to really change a lot of your gene not solely expression however the genetic data in your physique you’ll be able to change the microbiome your entire gene inhabitants by altering your weight loss plan and following life-style you’ll be able to change the expression of his genes that is epigenetics epi means above and epigenetics there’s the sheet of proteins above the genes that responds to each expertise you’ve got psychological bodily perceptual emotional all proper now stroll us by a number of the issues that you simply do from going round with the begging bowl to every day yoga like give us some prescriptive stuff for profitable on the sport of life okay however going round with the begging bowl and all that was simply to expertise myself with out my id Deepak Chopra you shave your eyebrows with the begging bowl amongst different beggars and South Korea proper yeah in Korea and also you get sorry in Thailand in northern Thailand however there are monasteries and South Korea like that too so it brings you to Who am I with out my PR Who am I with out this id that’s the goal of a few of these retreats however in fact that is infrequently I take every week of silence additionally yearly however this is what I do daily I begin my day with 4 questions Who am I what do I need who desires to know what’s my goal and what am i grateful for then I’m going into a couple of two hour meditation very early in that which goes to stillness now do you reply these questions or that is what the meditation is for that is what the magic you reside the questions consciousness strikes you into the solutions as a result of consciousness is infinite and there is infinite correlations we do not have to fret concerning the solutions you recognize it is an historic factor ask and also you shall obtain the unexamined life is just not value dwelling so that you simply apply that daily then I do about one and a half hours to 2 hours of stillness meditation it consists of conscious consciousness of physique thoughts and all that then I do yoga so it takes me about three hours to do my morning routine I usually do not begin my day until 11 as we speak is an exception for you thanks after which I usually do not work after 5:00 then once I’m giving a chat or on a tour or doing media however usually 11:00 to five:00 and on weekends I write and mirror and I get pleasure from my life so what are you doing in the event you’re working from 11:00 to five:00 one what is figure after which to once you’re having fun with your life what does that appear to be once I’m in New York I stroll the streets and I style and odor and expertise the colours and flavors of each nation by strolling on Broadway I can undergo Koreatown India city china city hit Little Italy little Spain little Portugal and savor the sensuality of the expertise and I spend a number of time doing that by work I really haven’t any work proper now aside from I write books and provides speeches which is how I study myself you recognize I am no matter I am scuffling with and attempting to resolve I write it down after which you recognize if I see some readability then I publish it that is work however it’s I do not consider it as work I consider it as play now you have mentioned that you simply not take into consideration getting older you suppose that the pursuit of that complete line of inquiry is a mistake what did you imply by that now I do not not consider getting older I am 73 in my subsequent chapter is demise so oh so I take into consideration getting older I’m NOT bamboozled by the assemble okay as a result of I do not suppose consciousness being formless and infinite topic to both beginning or demise this can be a trip we’re having and on planet Earth proper now and so would possibly as nicely get pleasure from it however demise is just not the top of consciousness is the top of a sure storyline in consciousness a sure interpretation of perceptions pictures emotions and ideas and the storyline is in fact the conditioned thoughts as quickly as you are born you say oh you are in you and also you’re male otherwise you come from a rich or poor household that is your faith and now you are bamboozled out of your true self into this provisional id so I do not it is not that I do not take into consideration that I ask myself what’s past my provisional id and I dwell in that and that has a really fascinating end result which is the result in each religious custom there are solely three issues that occur by the best way in a spiritual or conventional expertise one is transcendence you recognize that you’re not an entity in house in time that your true self is formless infinite unbounded borderless unfettered free consciousness primary quantity two you’ve got the emergence of what often I known as Platonic reality goodness magnificence concord love compassion pleasure equanimity and quantity three loss the concern of demise there’s nothing extra essential than having these three experiences and so they’ve been a part of each knowledge custom for 1000’s of years speak to me about like it’s fascinating for someone that began with neuro chemistry who may most likely give me a really detailed breakdown of the neuro chemical compounds concerned with love what’s oxytocin and serotonin however these are fashions once more there are constructs love is just not a sentiment love is just not an emotion love is the final word reality on the coronary heart of creation which is unity consciousness one consciousness differentiating into infinite modes of expertise infinite NORs infinite modes of realizing infinite phenomena recognized all generated inside the one self identical to once you had been only a fertilized ovum you’re one steps out stem cell flurry potential self it grew to become eyes grew to become know because it grew to become fingernails it grew to become coronary heart it grew to become mind in order that one cell differentiated into all these completely different cells every with its personal modality of expertise like that the one thoughts of the one consciousness differentiates itself into what we name the universe with each species of consciousness realizing the universe in its personal distinctive method as a result of in the end there is not any universe it is one other assemble once you’re meditating are you seeing pictures so love love is the final word reality however what’s that like that assist me differentiate between consciousness being type of the ground and love being the ground are they wanting the identical like pure love pure consciousness pure realizing pure creativity or the identical factor fascinating as a result of I consider and look I get it that is me trapped and type of the human expertise however I consider love as a as a molecule of emotion I consider it as an expertise it is arduous for me to wrap my head round it is the supply of these molecules of nicely molecules of emotion our human constructs however is the supply of the sensation that you simply get so I consider my mom proper now who’s lengthy gone and as quickly as I feel the phrase mom I see her picture and it is not in my mind there’s solely chemistry in my mind the picture is in my consciousness as quickly as I consider her really I can hear her voice there is not any sound in my mind however I can hear her voice in my consciousness as quickly as I consider her I really feel an emotion then perhaps there’s oxytocin in my mind however I am not experiencing oxytocin I am feeling this immense emotion of pleasure simply by pondering of her I may even odor her pores and skin once I was a child the place did all this come from simply by pondering of the phrase mom okay the phrase mom in pure consciousness created this complete Gestalt of experiences I name this qualia entanglement as a substitute of quantum entanglement qualia means high quality of expertise sensations pictures perceptions emotions ideas in the end that is all there’s qualia or qualities of expertise we’re AFI them we objectify them and we name the molecules what’s your mother like she was essentially the most wonderful storyteller and daily she would inform us a powerful story earlier than we went to mattress however she would cease at what is known as a cliffhanger after which she mentioned tomorrow I need you to finish this story for me make certain it is a love story with a contented ending that is fascinating and that is what influenced my whole life I made a decision that each one tales are provisional and the most effective tales are love tales that is actually fascinating is that one thing that you simply continued together with your youngsters or is that one thing that no no I continued it with my youngsters for certain do you suppose that that brings an consciousness to storytelling in and of itself or is it strongest as a result of it Prime’s you to give attention to one thing lovely it really does the entire above you recognize people are completely different in that we’re storytellers so that they we till about 30 40
