Good Para : | |
like all rivers the river ahead of us already exists before we arrive there. In the same way the future already exists now. | |
Not in a pre-determined sense but at least as some potentiality. As we arrive at the future moment our arrival marks the | |
passage from the fluid form that we call future to the definitive solid form that we experience as the past. | |
We do not create time by passing through it; we simply freeze it in its tracks. |

1] Life after death - (https://www.bibleinfo.com/en/questions/what-does-bible-say-about-death) | |
https://www.truthaboutdeath.com/blog/id/1585/what-is-death | |
https://www.truthaboutdeath.com/blog/id/1590/the-mystery-of-death | |
[ life, soul, spirit, righteous, wicked, divine ] | |
-> Death is am unconquerable foe | |
is a cloud of inevitable mortality | |
-> Soul is immoral entity | |
2] Conflicts - Science & Spirituality ( https://www.huffingtonpost.in/entry/science-religion-brain-study_n_56fa9edde4b0a372181aff5f?ri18n=true) | |
3] The Non-Locality of Self | |
Personal Trasformation : mind shapes our perception of reality | |
So We could change our experience of reality by altering our minds. | |
Reality : It is not fixed that we exist in & don't have to take as given. | |
It can be altered and creative role is own to us. | |
This insight is heart & Soul of Conscious Evolution | |
It is much bigger than what previously thought | |
Our spiritual awakenings and realizations confront us with an experience of a reality that lies beyond our current perception. | |
4] Science - Spirituality Conflicts | |
Facts vs faith based, Analytical & Moral Network ( 2 suppress each other ), theoritaical vs practical | |
-> Believe in religion, spiritual - empathic feelings, concerns & views | |
analytical thinking : disbelief in spiritual/religious idea. Why ? | |
faith requires disengagement of brain networks | |
Moral thinking : correlated with meditation, doing prayer | |
Religion & Science,actually are different kind of insight | |
Taking a leap of faith involves shutting down brain regions involved in analytic reason | |
