Part two: Atheism, a Collective Push to Detach You from Yourself. [Originally posted on 30th September 2015]: Atheism is a collective push to detach you from yourself, your universe, and your notion of God. On occasion, intellectuals have made a strong denouncement of God. In their interviews, the word God comes up as a misrepresentation of what God may be. Atheists who bind themselves with science are portrayed as a group of intelligent people. However, they cannot differentiate between the mystery of the universe, actual events and dogmas. They become dogmatic in themselves and, at the same time, convince the people who follow them to be dogmatic as well.

For some, God could be the unknowable ‘D/Tao’, a word deriving from the ‘Tao Te Ching,’ meaning “the way.” It’s challenging to assume that this group is part of the plan to collectively promote this way of thinking (the nihilist or material way of thinking) or if it is just a bunch of individuals, through no fault of their own, collectively believing that there is no god.

Lord Martin Rees says: “Science of any kind that teaches us is that even the simplest things are hard to understand, the Hydrogen Atom for instance, and that makes me rather suspicious of anyone who claims to have a quick and easy answer, to any deep aspect of reality, I think the most we can hope for is an incomplete and metaphorical understanding, and therefore I’m not myself someone who can accept any specific religious dogmas.” In the simplest term, he says we have no complete understanding of science and therefore any understanding of the Universe, and god must also be incomplete, he says “quick and easy answer, to any deep aspect of reality.”  

Anyone who’s had an enlightenment experience will tell you, “Oh! That’s all it is, how I can be so blind. It’s been with me all this time; it’s easy and simple.” Being enlightened is not for the chosen; it’s merely arbitrary. Allan Watts describes it as catching a cold, it comes, then it goes – and it feels like a universal harmonizing feeling, but it’s a cold you don’t want to lose. Some people seek holistic drugs, Zen, and yoga meditation, but for others, it comes out of the blue. Lord Martin Rees has indirectly told the truth by saying the best we can hope for is an incomplete and metaphorical understanding, so by being aware of experience, the truth is complete. The symbolic interpretation is perhaps better understood through referencing rational calculation and the meta-physics with body and spirit. 

Refrain from being swayed by technical jargon and vocabulary; they can often serve as a means of trickery, a sleight of hand. Many conventional thinkers dismiss metaphysics as pseudoscience, even when undeniable evidence supports it within the framework of traditional science. These thinkers manipulate the truth and context by changing definitions and suggestions. I’m not advocating for pseudo-mysticism; I’m simply reporting what already exists in discourse. However, it’s worth noting that atheists often aim to demystify the supernatural. Even their concept of the Big Bang theory is inherently supernatural—after all, the idea of something coming from nothing is, by definition, magical.

Sam Harris discusses  neuroscience, says: “Everything about your mind can be damaged; by damaging the brain, you can cease to recognise faces, cease to know the name of animals, but still name tools, the fragmentation in which our mind is parcellated, the level of the brain, is not at all intuitive, and there is a lot to know about it, what we’re being asked to consider is that if you damage one part of the brain, subjectivity is lost, damage another more is lost, and yet you damage the whole thing at death, we can rise of the brain with our faculties intact recognizing grandma and speaking English.” For an intellect, it is a relatively simplistic way of grasping the brain’s functions and how the spirit functions.

Sam Harris is examining the brain as if it were a biomechanical computer. Most computers connect to the internet through the Net or the Web. Before they can connect, you must set up the Wi-Fi or connect to a device that enables connectivity. Similarly, the brain has the pineal gland responsible for dreams. This gland produces D.M.T., a substance that can be thought of as a form of “bio Wi-Fi” that connects us to a deeper source of understanding. Some may refer to this source as the unknowable Tao, a concept transcending our comprehension. If a computer is missing components, it cannot connect to the internet. In the same way, if a part of the brain is damaged, it may seek alternative pathways to reach that source of understanding. However, this process can result in losing other functions, such as memory or motor skills. Fortunately, the brain is designed so well that the pineal gland is positioned right in the centre, protected by layers of the grey matter surrounding it.

We know we can measure thoughts by measuring the wavelengths and frequency, yet nothing in the brain holds them (thoughts). Can you create your thoughts in the external world from your mind? And this could explain intuition, so you can still get your message across with a combination of emotions and thoughts. Have you wondered how animals communicate, all based on psychic connectivity? Harris says, “It’s not all intuitive,” it’s intuitive and more. Harris later proclaims that we rise from the brain – this is an attempt to demystify the supernatural. Metaphysics is a study beyond physics; this is basic 101; consciousness is separate from the brain and the body. Harris’s logic is outdated and backward.

Some great books outline the subject of meta-science to unravel an understanding of this topic. (Lee Blaydon), “The Science of Spirituality,” Dalai Lama, “A Universe in a Single Atom,” Dr Moss Amos, “The Basic Code of the Universe”, and Dr Charles T. Tart, “The End of Materialism.”

Richard Feynman, on religious stories, with his glib vocabulary, states: “I can’t believe the special stories that have been made up, they seem too simple, too connected, and too local too provisional, the Earth, they came to the Earth! One of the aspects of God came to Earth! Mind you! And look what’s out there; how can it be in proportion.” Juliana Hatfield, an alternative rock singer, described it well, “Simplicity is Beautiful,” I’m astonished at how he couldn’t say the word Jesus Christ. It’s a typical anti-Christ mindset, a damaging one at that.

The Flower of Life is a symbol that can only be described as simplicity combined with complexity. The understanding of this symbol is more predominant in the minds of the collective, as shown by the example of an embryo splitting into two and then four. Everything in creation comes from this sacred geometric symbol. Yet, no institution, country or culture owns this symbol. I can only emphasize this in small synopsis because the subject is complex. The formation of this symbol can be described as consciousness or Spirit floating in a Void. It then expands its consciousness, resulting in the first circle, and the circle divides and moves to the edge; this creates the Vesica Piscis. Within the Piscis is knowledge of width, length, depth, proportion, square roots of two, three, five, and light information.

It will move five times further, creating the seed of life, or some call it the ‘Genesis pattern.’ Each day of the book of Genesis can equate to each circle of the seed of life. On the second day, the circle moved, thus creating light; the first sentence of Genesis states, “And the Earth was without form, and Void – and darkness was upon the face of the deep, and the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. God said, ‘Let there be light,’ and there was light.” The key here is in the order: God moved, and then came light. After three spheres, you get the Holy Trinity. Half of the creation was completed on the fourth day of creation, and more information was given on the fifth day. On the sixth day, a geometric miracle appeared, and the circle completed a six-pedal flower; therefore, what we know as the Bible’s creation story was accomplished in six days. (Jordan Duchnycz, n.d)

When you continue with more circles, you get the Egg of Life. By connecting those centres, you will see a cube; this is also the morph-genic structure that created your body. Each cell around the egg has Zona Pellucida. If you eliminate that and add more circles, you get the fruit of life with a thirteen-pattern circle. You get Metatron’s Cube by combining male lines to the circles and adding straight lines to every circle. All five platonic solids can be found in Metatron’s Cube. And this is where alchemy and the zero-point energy come from. Everything about the elements of reality is tied together from Plutonic solids that come from Metatron’s cube, which is formed out of the Fruit of Life, which comes from the Flower of Life that Spirit makes. (Jordan Duchnycz, n.d)

Richard Feynman says, “It’s too simple, too connected,” well … ‘yes’ and ‘no,’ and as I mentioned, complexity mixed in with simplicity, his right about being connected and the Tao (God) is a poet. He later says, “Aspect of God came to Earth,” meaning Christ. But, this is hard for some to formulate because it exercises miracles; well, a Buddhist has no problems with miracles, and the practice of Psyche (Magic) was around before Christ. So, by describing the miracle of birth coinciding with the flower of Life, ‘do you see we are the product of miracles and that we are part of the Tao (God)? The only difference with Christ is that he was free from the Adamic X chromosome; this dives into Theology and History for another thesis.

Sam Harris again states: “Let’s say a three-day embryo has a Soul worthy of our moral concern; problems await this description. Embryos can split; we call them identical twins. Is this a case of one splitting into two Souls? Embryos can fuse and become a Chimera. Where is the other Human Soul? It’s time we realize that this arithmetic of souls doesn’t make any sense.” Well, with the flower of life I described, it’s doubling. Embryos splitting means two sets of Flowers of Life, each with its consciousness, made even more special with an inherent psyche connection. As adults, twins can feel their sibling’s emotions, even living in different cities. It only further supports a psyche connection and consciousness. Harris’s strategy to claim that only singular souls per one Embryo can manifest and, therefore, is a speculation of the absoulte; when the egg splits into two, it creates two possibilities, generating its flower of life by which each gets its light and life. 

VS Ramachandran on Split-Brain Patient claims in his lecture: “so, now here’s the big question; do you believe in God? So, the right hemisphere of the brain says yes, and then the same question to the left hemisphere, they answer no. So, here is a human being, with right brain saying yes, left saying no. So, if these people die, does one right hemisphere go to heaven, left hemisphere go to hell.” In the middle of that statement he also says that this finding should have sent Tsunami to the theology community, but it barely made a ripple. It didn’t raise a ripple because it’s not that profound. Instead, their reaction is like an equilibrium water state, and here’s why?

Leonard Susskind says: “I don’t believe intelligence designed the universe; I believe the same way a human being was designed, through random mutation, a bunch of carbon oxygen and other stuff, for that mutation to work on. Upon this basic randomness, statistics and the law of physics that led to this design, the same is true of the universe.” he is talking about evolution through Darwinism.

Dr Stephen Meyer’s book, “Darwin Doubt,” is about the Cambrian explosion and the sudden geological appearance of most major groups of animals in a geological period – called the Cambrian, 530 million years ago. Darwin himself addressed this in his book. Meyer underlines two mysteries surrounding the doubt. Darwin believed life should unfold slowly and gradually. He described life as a branching tree, and at the base of the tree, it represented a one-cell organism, and all the terminal branches represented all the life we see today. The connecting branches represented intermediate forms that rose through time. He also thought this process should slowly unfold because his mechanism for natural selection acting on random variations also had to act gradually. Hence, fossil records came to be. The first significant group of animals came on the scene – fully formed abruptly through the sedimentary layer. (Stephen Meyer, n.d)

Darwin hoped future Palaeontologists could find that missing sequence. However, Meyer describes current Palaeontologist findings as only intensifying the mystery instead of alleviating the problem. Meyer underlines two mysteries concerning the doubt: the mystery of missing fossils and an engineering problem: what is the information generating life? If you want to build a life through non-living chemicals, you need information in the form of D.N.A. – to construct the proteins to make cells viable, but if you want to create a new life from the pre-existing form, you need reams of digital code. This requires everything to be new, and all of those require information. Natural selection and random mutation are inept mechanisms for generating new information; random information degrades, and mutated cells degrade. Finding new genes or proteins for the time allowed in the evolutionary process is mathematically improbable. (Stephen Meyer, n.d)

Meyer describes the intelligent design as the idea of certain features of the biological system that are best explained by an intelligent cause rather than an undirected process, such as natural selection acting on random mutation. (Stephen Meyer, n.d)

Leonard Susskind’s remarks are just opinion-based; they are not facts. Although, by his logic, he should have wavering feelings because of ‘Darwin’s Doubt,’ he believes in a myth formulated by Darwin’s incomplete scientific truth.

Stephen Fry on the natural world says: “The wonder of nature must be taken in its totality, it is a wonderful thing, it’s marvellous, and the ideas of an Atheist or Humanist don’t marvel and wonder at reality, is nonsensical. We wonder all the way; we don’t just stop and say what we don’t understand, I will call God. And this is what humanity has done historically. God was everything 1000 years ago because we understood almost nothing about the natural world, so it could all be God. God receded and receded as we understood more, so suddenly now, he is barely anywhere.”

Stephen Fry is saying that an Atheist or Humanist “goes all the way” in trying to understand how the world works and how things are and disregarding their ability to marvel at nature is nonsensical. And this is untrue because what atheists don’t understand becomes the thing they believe through hypothetical assumptions of what scientists theorize. Which gets blurred into fact and so becomes a stopping point rather than going all the way. Then he assumes we know as much as we did in understanding what we know 1000 to 2000 years ago, and by that, believing in God is people’s default thinking. The truth is never that simple; human history goes as far back as 100,000 years (maybe even millions). We knew a lot more back then than we know now. We were far more intelligent back then (research hidden history, Atlantis and the Mystery Religion). Through Greek history and the Middle Ages and Renaissance, we were at the lowest part of our history in terms of knowledge (with the exclusion of Pythagorean schools and philosophers). We are now waking up to the realization and understanding of our beginnings. Our worldview is now changing from an old Newtonian paradigm to a quantum crystallized spiritual viewpoint, and soon, disbelieving God will recede. This reductionist point of view will also cease to exist in the future.

Garrett Lisi, a particle physicist, describes a discovery in the scientific field (it’s less of a discovery but a rediscovery of what has been written before in esoteric texts) that explains that having automatic free will is a given. Still, we’re also part of a whole. Quantum mechanics suggests a continual branching out of possibilities. As humans, we experience time individually as one possibility. It comes down to the consensus of geometry and its interaction between elementary particles that can be enhanced when everything is in balance. He demonstrates how particles that create point particles work when they plot them out and shows how they move; the result is a string of sacred geometric symbols.             

I’ll conclude with the first verse of the ‘Tao Ti Ching.’ “The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao. The name that can be named is the eternal name. The Tau is both named and nameless. As nameless, it is the origin of all things; as named, it is the Mother of 10,000 things. Ever desire-less, one can see the mystery; ever desiring, one sees only the manifestations. And the mystery itself is the doorway to all understanding.” – Lao Tza.
