From: Deepak Chopra To: jeffrey E. <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Sadhu Sanga] Consciousness Date: Sat, 06 Aug 2016 10:49:18 +0000 Agree re Paul Selig Don't know the Sci Foo conference All " respected " thinkers are part of a club . Your point re reductionist science and locker room motivation is true In my opinion science does not explain the scientists desire to unravel the mystery of existence either nor does it explain longing aspiration or the desire to understand truth goodness beauty . The highest science is based on mathematical imagination in consciousness . There is no explanation for that either . Why is it so difficult for scientists to acknowledge that without an explanation for mental or perceptual experience we cannot know truth only shifting models that help create technology Also 99.9 % of reality is sub empirical and the 0.1 % that is empirical is made of probability waves in mathematical space " something unknown is doing we don't know what " Sir Arthur Eddington On the train back to Paris To NYC tomorrow I would have enjoyed your meeting except I'm not part of that club Deepak Chopra Super Genes: Unlock the Astonishing Power of Your DNA for Optimum Health and Wellbeing On Aug 6, 2016, at 12:28 PM, jeffrey E. <[email protected]> wrote: paul selig was amusing no more no less- he was off to give a lecture to 60 housewives in wisconsin ( punishment for his transgressions i guess ). I do not know if you are aware of the Sci Foo. conference. its the most respected gathering of thinkers. I suggest we do a SCi WOO. , where we invite the scinents to teach and learn as well as the woo woos to do the same. I tell the science guy , that motivating a group of players in the locker room at half time. does not lend itself to reductionism. I wish you were here today.
