 :-) He does a really good job at bringing it down to a understandable level IMO, there's lots of other interesting videos on the metaRising channel.

I saw that. When I find a video with a topic that I like and enjoyed, I will normally look at the User's profile to see what other "Gems" they may have posted!  :-)

That doesn't surprise me at all. The Advertising machine is always looking at new ways to manipulate people. Do you remember back in the 80's when "Subliminal Advertising" was running wild? Skulls and crossbones, naked ladies in the ice cubes of alcohol related ads. It took awhile, but that got banned. So did alcohol ads in magazines. They tried the same thing on TV as well. They put blips in commercials that were so fast, one frame or so, that your conscious mind didn't register them. But your "subconscious" did.

Too "young" to remember that :-)

This I do remember.

Did a bit of googling and found this https://www.businessinsider.com/subliminal-ads-2011-5?r=US&IR=T apparently the single frame stunt goes all the way back to 1957.

I'm not surprised really... I mean, experience simply IS... it doesn't matter if it's physical or non-physical, if you can experience something, then it was real.

The article brings forward some ideas that are intriguing such as the quantum idea of wavefront collapse which serves to temporarily define our experience boundaries in whatever dimension we decide to consciously participate.

What I find lacking is that the author's sole reference is from his own work, but that's part and parcel of articles in magazines like this. With that said, I largely agree with the thinking, but it only scratches the surface and then only from one direction: the direction of the physiology of the human brain. To me, the physical brain is just a form of interface between the physical body inputs/outputs and the infinitely more important aspect- the mind/awareness/consciousness...which is arguably in the NP or spiritual.

Like this article, it's shows like the program Ancient Aliens that continually seem to ignore, misunderstand or refuse to address the idea of the Non-Physical or spiritual aspect to the mind/awareness/consciousness...they seem to see it almost as a byproduct of physical processes when, in fact it is the beginning and end of the whole.

The spiritual precedes the physical. We are not physical beings that happen to have, or develop spirits/souls; we are spirits/souls that have decided to inhabit physical bodies. That distinction has always seemed both important and obvious to me.

 It was a great article and it's good to see someone thinking "outside of the box", for a change! Thanks for the share Bob!  :-)

I agree with what you are saying EV. Although there are a few people on the show Ancient Aliens who do think that "all" is based on the consciousness as a whole. William Henry comes to mind. They even had Deep Chopra on their show in one episode. It was one of the best they have ever did.

One of the top researchers in the field of Ufology or should I say UAPology, lol, is a man named Grant Cameron. He believes that everything, all paranormal events of all kinds, are consciousness based and not the "brain/physical" side of consciousness, but the "Spiritual" one. He has quite a following of "Experiencers" to prove his theory as well.
