SUPERPOSITIONING (ec blog)

wow. that video was wierd. there were a few quotes that stood out to me:

"we've been conditioned to believe that the external world is more real than the internal world" I don't really know what to say about that exactly. I guess the point would be the argument between vision of the brain, and vision of the eyes as mentioned in the movie. They're arguing that maybe the "internal" world, such as thoughts, concepts and beliefs, are more solid, mare stable and more dependable that those that we can see. Like the material world is not dependable.

"makes ya wonder doesn't it...if thoughts can do that to water, imagine what our thougts can do to us."
This was kindof a funny part in the movie because the chick kinda looks at the dude like "huh? why the heck are you talking to me?" (just a bunny trail back to living like people mattered) anyways, this argument agrees with the above idea about thoughts being more tangible than materials. According to this little lecture of water, the words written on the bottle actually changed the form of the water molecule. They showed waster blessed by a Budhist guy and water that had "thank you" written on the bottle etc. It made us believe that our thoughts can actually change the form, the water's actual being and state of existence.

"...imagine what our thoughts can do to us."
