Philosophical Speculations

Right, and if you actually read the latest DH paper or listen his lates interviews, he was able to break through this atomism and show mathematically how the interference of lower-level CAs leads to their fusion into higher-level CAs, or as he calls it, "nested hierarchy of conscious agents&qu...

I would actually argue that most of the scientific breakthroughs were achieved by scientists intuiting into the higher-order mind fields. However, in most cases they were not consciously aware of it, even though still many were. As Bach said in his last words on his death bed: "Do not cry for ...

In the spirit of ‘reaching across the aisle’ I’ve considered naming samadhi\pure consciousness a specific manner of thinking, even though it’s traditionally described as non-thinking. We’ve all experienced thinking gross or crude thoughts (gross and crude not in content but mechanics, and we’ve exp...

I must be missing something - I fail to see how thinking, a local and finite activity, no matter how exalted, can directly invoke or be equivalent to a Oneness, or Intuitive Whole. Can a thought convey unboundedness\Infinity\Freedom? And if this is possible, to invoke a thought as Ideal Principle o...

Thanks for sharing this Guney. I am not sure the bold is exactly right, I believe thinking is redeemed from the (1) normal rational sequences of thoughts that go with the flow of sensory stimuli, rather than from (2) the unconscious factors that guide it, while the unconscious factors are the ones ...

Great!

So do you conceive it is possible that when your meditation reaches its limits, another sort of meditation can go further into the depths of spiritual reality? This isn't any philosophical or religious framework. It is about taking direct introspective experience to the next level of objective inne...

It could only be because you assume it is impossible that you are misunderstanding the higher cognitive path, because you already encompass the ground-level reality from which it emerges and the only thing you may be missing are the details that are mostly worked out with intellectual thinking or s...

I am grateful for your presence on this forum for so many years. It sparked endlesss inspiring posts from Cleric, without which, my own intuitive orientation to spiritual reality would be sorely lacking. However, I get the sense that such a benefit may not continue anymore. Even though Cleric has e...

Sorry, I forgot to mention before, but your comment has reminded me, there are analytic idealism forums on Discord and Reddit (just as there are Anthroposophy forums in which I participate and where plenty of fruitful discussion happens). It's pretty odd, yet also funny to me, that you are basing a...
