The only reason science is able to be non-mystical is because it always artificially sets a narrow, partial scope for its explanations. This partiality is mandatory because it allows science to make sense of one part of reality in terms of another part. This only works because it off-loads epistemic responsibility onto another part, leaving it unexplained. The scientist comforts himself by rationalizing, “Well, this is good enough. I'm merely human. Someone else will figure out the rest some day.” Except that day never comes. When a new scientist comes around to figure it out, he will fall into the same trap and also kick the can down the road. Epistemically, science in nothing more than an endless game of the mind kicking the can down the road until you are dead, all the while telling yourself that this approach must work out in the end because, after all, science is true. Except it cannot work out in the end and you merely assume science is true.

This mechanism creates the illusion that reality is non-mystical. But if you take epistemic responsibility for explaining ALL of reality, this sense-making aim is different in kind from what scientists do because you are not allowing yourself to kick the can down the road. As soon as you take responsibility for explaining the existence of Everything, any possibility of a non-mystical explanation dies. Why? Because there exists no part outside of Totality that you can use to define or explain it with. Parts only exist internal to Totality. The only possible explanation is Infinity, and Infinity is necessarily a Mystery. But the scientist does not understand this and cries foul whenever he hears a mystical explanation because his entire career has been a commitment to narrow, partial, technical explanations, and out of sheer conformity he cannot imagine any other way. The scientist has been so brainwashed by the STEM sub-culture to only work on partial, unholistic explanations and to never take total epistemic responsibility that he cannot fathom anything else. Nobody has ever taught a scientist that Total epistemic responsibility is different in kind from the partial epistemic responsibility that he’s been taking his entire career. Moreover, it is deeply hurtful and embarrassing for a scientist to admit that he has been epistemically irresponsible his entire life. He cannot admit that to himself because it would crush his scientific ego. After all, his identity and sense of self is wrapped up with science. He really believes science is truth. Admitting all this would send him into an existential crisis which would disrupt his career. He can't worry about this "silly" philosophical stuff, he's got "real" work to do! — exams to grade, grant money to get, grad students to manage, admin meetings to attend, papers to publish.

The essential difference between me and any scientist is that I take TOTAL epistemic responsibility for accounting for ALL of Reality. This sounds like a small difference, but it makes all the difference. No scientist does this. The STEM sub-culture does not teach this and they are all conforming to that sub-culture. Which is why they can never understand God or mysticism. God is Totality. Which is why science cannot see it. Science is not Total by its own definition and science does not understand why this matters. Science thinks it’s okay to not be Total. No, it’s not okay. That means you will never outsmart Maya. All that Maya needs to outsmart you is to be more total than you.

Epistemic responsibility is no joke. Do you take TOTAL responsibility for understanding Reality? If not, Maya has already won.

This is a deep discussion about the fudging that takes place at the core of hard science.

There is a serious possibility that much of astrophysics is fantasy and conformity. This includes things like:

• The existence of black holes
• Neutron stars
• White dwarfs
• The Big Bang
• The expansion of the universe
• The gas nature of stars
• Formation of stars from gas clouds
• How nuclear fusion works
• Curved space-time
• Dark matter
• Dark energy

The science behind all these things is highly suspect, speculative, sloppy, and full of dangerous assumptions and group-think. You'll be horrified once you understand how sloppy science really is. How they gather and interpret data. How they fudge their numbers. How they ignore anomalies. All their childish assumptions.

The lesson here is that science pretends to be rigorous when it is anything but. But due to conformity and survival none of this can be questioned within academia. Remember, as I said in my series on Deconstructing The Myth Of Science, 99% of science is beliefs. That is technically true and scientists do not understand it.

Note: Be careful not to just believe this guy. He could also be wrong. The point here is to realize that you truly don't know. Stop believing things, stop assuming things, start contemplating.

The corruption in psychiatry is wild. Be careful taking their twisted drugs.

Psychiatry is an example of the corruption of science, academia, and healthcare. Rather than helping heal psyches at the existential, consciousness, spirit level, they use rationalism to reduce untruthful living to chemistry. Why do Philosophy when you can just take a pill? I want you to see that this is a natural consequence of the rationalist worldview, where mental problems are not spiritual but molecular — because spirit isn't real.

The majority of psychiatric problems are simply compounded years of untruthful lifestyle and untruthful use of mind. What psychiatric patients are missing most is real Philosophy. Real Philosophy creates mental health. But nobody knows nor teaches real Philosophy, and real Philosophy takes decades. So here we are.

Note: I am not telling you to suddenly stop taking your medication. Think carefully before doing that. Some people genuinely need medication to be mentally stable. Consult a professional when making such changes.

Fundamentally, the mind does not understand God because it is divided. The mind has conceptually divided existence so cleverly that it views itself as divided from everything it knows. The mind is so confused by these divisions and so unaware that it imagines these divisions that it literally cannot recognize God, since God is the Unity of all things.

So, I am saying that you do not understand God because in your mind there is a cat, a dog, Hitler, blue, a unicorn, atoms, and a self-image of yourself, and you actually believe these things are physically different from each other. And so, you live in an imaginary, divided reality without comprehending that you are the one who divided it, and you refuse to unimagine those divisions because if you did you would lose your sanity. But if you did, you would become God and all of existence would make perfect sense.

God is not a magical being that is found out in the universe. God is when the mind finally realizes that it is imagining all the differences between things, itself, others, and the world. God cannot be known theoretically, academically, from a distance. God is only known when your mind achieves Unity. Unity cannot be achieved by believing or thinking it. Unity requires becoming United.

How united or how divided are you?

Notice that the more divided the mind is, the weaker it is, the more twisted, the more sick, the more perverted, the more deluded, the more lost, the more confused, the more foolish, the more frightened, the more angry, the more hostile, the more evil.

This isn't just a cliche — but ontologically — Unity IS Power/Health/Good/Love/Truth and division is weakness/disease/evil/hate/falsehood.

Your body is sick, your mind is sick, your relationship is sick, your science is sick, your university is sick, your religion is sick, your family is sick, your society is sick — because it is divided.

Recognize this as the highest wisdom and devote yourself to live it. That is the Good Life. To understand and live this is Philosophy. Any other philosophy is false.

This is a deep example of how the scientific mind fails at epistemology and ontology. They are trying hard, but they are hopelessly paradigm-locked in scientism and rationalism.

This is a very deep example. It is educational to watch it all the way through. You will learn a lot about how the rationalist mind works and its blind-spots.

You can see they can't make sense of what existence is, what is is, what consciousness is, what objects are, what distinctions are, what concepts are, what truth is, etc. Yet they are trying to do serious science.

Reality cannot be understood with this sloppiness of thinking, yet their oblivious to this point. This is true of nearly all scientists and academics. It makes no difference what theories they hold, study, or advocate. The problem is not in any specific theory but in their lack of mastery over their own mind.

No academic has mastery of their own mind. They don't even know this is a thing or why it is necessary.

Finally, what is the medium or "ether" that carries all physical activity (electrons, protons, photons, electro-magnetism, gravity, space-time, charge, quantum fields)?

Infinity/Consciousness.

There is only one Field. This Field is Infinity. It is infinitely continuous, infinitely holographic and contains every possible quality that can be imagined. This is true, absolutely. This unifies all of physics into one Absolute Field.

What does a photon fly through? Consciousness! Truth! Nothing!

When you do philosophy properly this answer becomes perfectly clear and obvious. When you don't, you forever remain clueless no matter how many PhD's you have.

Science is categorically incapable of understanding reality. No amount of technical analytical intelligence is sufficient to make sense of reality. Reality can only be understood through a totally holistic intelligence that only comes from trans-human states of consciousness. Reality cannot be understood as a physical system because reality is Consciousness and nothing but Consciousness. Human consciousness is incapable of understanding Consciousness. Only trans-human consciousness has enough intelligence and holism to understand Consciousness. No scientist has enough Consciousness to understand reality, so they spend their entire lives chasing their own tails like dogs until they drop dead. They have invested so much time and energy chasing their own tails that they would rather die than admit their mistake. So that is exactly what they will do.

This is the elephant in the room that no scientist dares to talk about.

This is not a problem of lack of technical ability or lack of advanced technology. The paradigm is entirely wrong. The paradigm is so wrong that there exists no right paradigm within human consciousness. It is a gap that science can never bridge no matter how hard it tries. The only solution is trans-human consciousness. No amount of science of any kind is equal to trans-human consciousness.

No amount of giving baboons faster calculators and bigger telescopes will get them to understand what a human child understands. This is the seriousness of Consciousness. The only technology that helps is one that raises Consciousness. Which is why psychedelics are the most powerful technology for understanding reality.
