Is the Brain Really Like a Computer or Hologram?

Discover why the brain operates like a computer and a hologram and how that idea is changing to a quantum model.

In modern times, the language used to describe the brain has been based on the current structural or mechanical information processing paradigm of the era. Since the last half of the twentieth century, this dual paradigm has been the computer and the hologram. That way of thinking is quickly evolving to a quantum computer model because it can rapidly process multiple streams of data to be delivered in a parallel fashion. Although it is still a mechanical viewpoint, it is a significant shift in theory.

Connections - Dr. Amit Goswami

Connections highlights interesting and delightful folks I'm meeting along The Sage Age journey.

I’m thrilled that theoretical quantum physicist, author, and visionary Dr. Amit Goswami has joined the Twitter social media site. He has appeared in such movies as “What the Bleep do We Know?!?” and “The Dalai Lama Renaissance”. He is currently working on his own documentary, “The Quantum Activist” that is now in post-production. In it he shares his vision of the unlimited potential of consciousness as the ground of all being while never straying from the rigors of quantum mechanics. “The Quantum Activist” tells the story of a man who challenges us to rethink our very notions of existence and reality, with a force and scope not felt since Einstein.”

With this documentary, Dr. Goswami “demonstrates how our mistaken views of reality have led to our current environmental, social, economic and spiritual crisis; as well as the means of correcting these errors.” And he challenges each one of us to take responsibility for how we are creating this reality.

For more information on “The Quantum Activist” and to watch a movie trailer, visit http://quantumactivist.com/ While you are there, be sure to see his current lecture schedule.

Dr. Amit Goswami can be found on Twitter as @quantumactivist The production team for the documentary is also on Twitter as @bluedot_

Honoring a Life's Work

One of my dear friends, the Rev. Juliet Nightingale, crossed over today. She was a multiple NDEr and dedicated her life to helping folks understand multi-dimensional living, the near-death experience, and a little bit about what The Other Side is like.

She was a very frail person, just a wisp of a thing really. She was also legally blind and her only source of income was from intuitive counseling sessions. Needless to say, she lived well below the poverty line for most of her life and was homeless for a time. Even with these limitations she ran several Web sites and a weekly radio program to educate folks and bring groups together from all over the world.

She sat on the board of IANDS, the International Association of Near Death Studies, and regularly spoke with PhDs and researchers from the standpoint of an actual experiencer.

I sit in awe at how one person, with such limited resources, both physically and financially, could wield her passion into helping so many people overcome their fear of dying or help them through the grieving process of losing a loved one. Even while she was briefly in hospice, she took the opportunity to educate her caregivers on the conscious dying process. They were amazed at her ability to remain steadfastly focused despite any medication she was offered.

I am grateful to have known Juliet and even more grateful for the wisdom that she anchored in this place for the benefit of everyone, whether she personally came into contact with them or not.

Her work will continue here because she was a beautiful light that took the time to pass that on to hundreds of candles in the souls of others and illuminate our awareness by the doing of it. May we all learn something from this one gentle soul who believed she could make a difference; and did.
