Where Science and Buddhism Meet: Emptiness, Interconnectivity and the Nature of Reality Check out my latest project at www.innerprisms.com! Please don’t forget to rate and favorite if you enjoy! Thank you for taking the time to watch this! If you enjoy this video and think it would be of some benefit or interest to others please share! My intentions are of a pure and positive nature and with this I hope to share what I believe to be a very meaningful message. I’ve made this to share what I believe to a profound convergence of two way seemingly opposite ways of perceiving and understanding reality. Lots of love!! – Gerald Here is a very partial list of resources, please message me with any questions!

Here’s the better version of this video (a lot better)!! www.youtube.com A few key points: Buddha said that reality was a manifestation of mind, very similar if not exactly like a dream. Mind creates reality, this is what he called the true nature of reality, or emptiness. Nothing exists separate from the mind. “Reality” is an illusion of mind. Science has found that: 1. Unless being observed reality exists in superposition, or infinite possibility, its not until things are observed that they become “material”ized. There’s an inseparable tie between mind and matter. 2. Particles flash in and out of existence from a void. We don’t know where they come from or where they go, and we can only predict where they might arise. 3. We cannot know a particles position and velocity at the same time. 4. Atoms consist of 99.9999 empty space. 5. Particles simultaneously exist as waves. The wave/particle duality. These all point to a very illusory nature to reality. I personally believe there two sides of the same coin. Thank you for being patient with the video quality, and thanks for watching! Response to comment/question: Roberto1988: how can you *flash* in to existence and out of existence? if you are out of existence, then you do not exist. thus, you coming back into existence is in violation if energy laws. one cannot create something out of nothing. i think you exist but undergo some sort of transformation, all the while existing. Response: Well particles disappear and …
This video is about such topics as identity, ego, selfhood, existentialism, buddhism, and Nietzsche. I propose that there are three components to our pscyhe. 1. The “False Idol” that some refer to as the ego. This is the person that we project ourselves to be to the outside world that may be completely different from #2. 2. The “Inner Core” or Ubermensch. This is the person that we believe ourselves to be independent of others. We create this person ourselves and avoid interference from the outside world. 3. “The Formless”. This is the aspect of ourselves that has absolutely no identity and is stripped of any “ego”. Upon further contemplation, I will argue that the formless does not necessarily become altruistic or generous, but merely outside of the world altogether with no relation to anything. I propose that the “formless” is another way of referring to what Buddhists refer to as “Buddha” or “Nirvana”. Some might say that Buddhahood is like being connected to all or one with all, but I am going even a step further. Buddhahood is supposedly a way of disconnecting from cycles of reincarnation. (I don’t believe in reincarnation.) I feel this disconnected state to be a place of peace, not madness or depression. Whether you perceive yourself as nothing or a reflection of everything, your specific individual identity loses all meaning… and all of the strife, worry, anxiety and troubles associated with MAINTAINING identity crumble and vanish. After many years of study, I …
