I hope YOU understand, Zonder, that everything YOU parrot about science, (based on the depth of your understanding to this point) is just another form of BELIEF, fundamentally no different from the opinions of others that you regularly deride. We all do this. I would just hope that you are capable of seeing YOUR participation, and not just the participation of others. If you actually DO this you will then see that you exist in a cocoon of BELIEF. You could then examine what those beliefs ARE, and start to see how they create your personal reality. You would then see that your personal reality is a cocoon separating you (in Consciousness) from all else (an activity Adi Da describes as the self-contraction). You then MIGHT be interested in moving beyond your cocoon. Enroute, you would discover what glues your set of beliefs together, and keeps you operating the self-contraction (fear). And yes, this is belief on my part, but belief that has been tested very profoundly over 18 years in a a variety of ways and found to be true, enabling another process to occur. That process continues, daily. You will commence your own process when you are ready. In the meantime try abandoning your presumed "superiority". You would be much more human as a result. Namaste! Jim
