    What is consciousness?

    The same arrogant rhetoric, the same dishonest games, the same ad homs. You are like a broken record and you STILL haven't provided a coherent response to my earlier posts. Clearly you are incapable of thinking outside your new-age box because you are surgically attached to your...

    What is consciousness?

    Drop the personal attacks and respond to the substance of my earlier posts ( #33 and #35 ). Let's see if you are capable of having a genuine discussion. Let's see if you are capable of thinking outside your new-age box and considering different points of view. Based on your past behaviour...

    What is consciousness?

    The same old arrogant rhetoric and lame ad-homs. You STILL haven't provided a coherent response to the substance of my earlier post, further demonstration that you are only here to preach your new-age dogma, and not the least bit interested in genuine discussion.

    What is consciousness?

    Indeed, and when it comes to consciousness, pseudo-science is regularly used in a vain attempt to lend credibility to what are essentially religious beliefs.

    What is consciousness?

    I have repeatedly asked you to provide coherent explanations of your new-age dogma, and you have repeatedly failed to do so. All you do is arrogantly regurgitate the same old dogma and launch personal attacks on anyone who dares to question your Chopra-inspired twaddle. But here's another...

    What is consciousness?

    You are being very dishonest because you continually preach new-age dogma here, a muddle of pseudo-Hinduism and pseudo-science, inspired by the charlatan Chopra. Sunyata is definitely not compatible with your new-age beliefs, and it is very dishonest of you to imply that it is. The Zen...

    What is consciousness?

    More cliched dogma which doesn't address the substance of my post at all. There is no objective way of verifying that internal experiences correlate to some larger reality, and claiming that internal experiences define the cosmos is just arrogant. You preach biocentrism, but it often...

    What is consciousness?

    This is just your usual pseudo-Hindu new-age dogma. The problem is that these beliefs rest on the assumption that internal experiences define the cosmos, or correspond to a larger reality. But this is a HUGE assumption, and there is no objective way of verifying it. Projecting out internal...

    A Universe from Nothing?

    Everybody here knows you're a complete merchant banker. Just go away.

    A Universe from Nothing?

    It does happen. What is really tiresome is when the student has an overwhelming need to fling the poo around and cover everyone else in it.

    To Atheists & Agnostics: When did consciousness first appear?

    That's fine, but your faith in particular teachers is very subjective. Err...OK.

    A Universe from Nothing?

    Pot calling the kettle black, again. You are the one who is deeply attached to dogma.

    A Universe from Nothing?

    I am all for intuitive understanding, but that involves simplicity, openness and directness, which is diametrically opposed to your approach. Your approach involves blind faith in a steaming pile of muddled new-age dogma with no insight whatsoever. As usual you cannot respond to criticisms of...

    A Universe from Nothing?

    That's just as well because you don't seem to have convinced anyone here, you have just annoyed everyone with your relentless arrogant preaching of new-age twaddle. Your Zen clichés are not fooling anyone, a real Zennie wouldn't touch your new-age metaphysical dogma with a bargepole. You are...

    A Universe from Nothing?

    Meh. You are like a pompous preacher who blames the congregation for not understanding his incomprehensible sermons. You have clearly been conned by that charlatan Chopra, so it is YOU who lack "intuitive insight". All you do here is parrot his nonsensical new-age dogma, studiously...
