Episode notes
Tripartite Cosmos
- The universe has three realms: aviturnal (beyond space and time), psychic (time only), and corporeal (space and time).
- Christian cosmology differs from Vedic cosmology in that the cosmos will end, having a purpose.
Quantum Physics vs. Classical Physics
- Quantum mechanics describes the physical world with wave functions, implying particles exist probabilistically, not at fixed points.
- The act of measurement transitions from this quantum view to the classical, where particles have definite properties.
Platonist Cosmology and Neo-Gnosticism
- The existence of a time-only realm (psychic/intermediary) disproves Einsteinian physics.
- Neo-Gnosticism views the higher world as futuristic, with technology as a focus, and Teilhard de Chardin as its prophet.
