This is a topic proposed by Autumn that I would like to set up as a new forum for open discussion.       Autumn I think you would be the best one to get the ball rolling on this topic. I hope you don't mind if I paste in part of your blog just to get your original thoughts about the subject of “One mind” in here to get us started. I will delete it if you are opposed to my re-posting your comments without your permission.     From Autumns Blog:     “I have read the topic on Mind/ Body and consciousness and I loved it. I like the part where it talks about our minds being a receiver and on that note, I would like to add a little about my belief. I believe that some of us are born in tune with the earth and are just innately able to perceive things, other realms or states of being that others cannot. I have been told that I am what is called a sensitive. I kind of like empath, being a star trek fan myself. Anyway, In this world which seems to embrace violence and hatred. It is very hard to not get overwhelmed by everything. I find myself thinking that we should be doing things to make this world better and helping others, not fighting wars and destroying not only the earth but each other. It distresses me to see us going backwards not forwards. But maybe, like in the past we need to go backwards a little bit in order to move forward. Either way, rest assured that there are those of us out there who will be there to guide and help those in need. Yep! there's the earth mother in me coming out again. It is up to each and everyone of us to make sure that this world is a loving universe for all. We have the power to change our consciousness at will, so lets all do it and maybe we can change the path this world is heading in. Lets do a little experiment, Lets all concentrate on this world being a better and more excepting and loving place to be and see what happens. Lets think of peace and love encompassing the earth and see what that does. We are all one mind. Let us unite and change the world.”                                       This post was edited by VeritasLux at March 28, 2011 3:36:33 AM BST"

I think that would be an excellent experiment, I only wish we had more members to participate. But I am willing to concentrate on this in the best mediative state I can achieve for a couple of hours, even if you and i are the only ones interested... there are only three members in this Forum, you , me and Barry d -the administrator/co-creator and I have not heard from him in over a month. So you just tell me what day and time you would like to do this experiment and I will join in... I'm in the eastern standard time zone (CT), where are you?.. mountain or pacific?... Arne't you in Colorado or somewhere there abouts? I'm sensing you are in a rural western area.. maybe we are in sync mentally already or I'm psychic.. or just completely wrong and trying to guess..lol But now I'm curious to know how "psychic"i am... I'll check your profile but I don't think I am remembering it from there... get back to me as soon as you log on. ~~Peace~~ B-Mc

Moderator 3 posts March 22, 2011 5:12:59 AM EDT Quote Edit Delete One more thought: The question, or Quest that has been plagueing me for so long now is How do we break free from that that Idea, proposed by those song-sheet scientists who no doubt had an influence on society, government and media as a whole that have Limited us for so long keeping us as mere automatons - not fully conscious computers? How do we completely Free Our Minds and take control of our lives, our reality and reach limits no human has ever dreamed of, how do we re-connect, how do we become fully aware of our true potential and Live it for eternity? Of course mental heath has a great deal to do with being stuck in this limited way and it goes both ways, our mental health limits us from Freeing our minds.. and in many cases the knowledge that we are not in control and the world we live at large is Wrong... the Knowing that there is so much more to our Being so much more to "I"... but there is also "We" or a collective consciousness of all conscious entities, Can and Does promote an unhealthy mental state. I myself Had been for years becoming more and more mentally unhealthy, depressed, anxious and feeling so issolated Because I Knew There Was So much More and that this World id not make sense to me, I did not fit in.. as hard as I tried, I kept falling back into that aching feeling and that made me more depressed, anxious and withdrawn..and that in it self became a snowballing effect. I went to doctors for help and they fed me mind numbing anti-deressants..lol(B.S) and tranquilzers just keeping me Stuck until they do more damage than anything.. never really did any good. But that question, the quest to answer it and gain control over my mind.. not just to "fit in with this World - this Holographic illusion reality, but to reach far beyond those lines drawn in the sand by the majority who try t enforcethis limited view of reality.. of how things are and how they work, and what your are supposed to do and believe even down to Religious Dogma dictating to us what Spirtuality is.. what the rules are.. Defining God and what He expects from us and what He will do to punish us if we disobey.. I was taught that if I eat meat on Friday I have Sinned and will be Punished by God?!... All of these Lines drawn in the sand of our "Controlled' perception of our limited selves and of our limited reality reinforced by Everyone from teachers to scientists to clergy to society an even family... these lines that have been drawn say "Don't look past here, there's nothing else to know. Go Back to Sleep!" But I Can Not, I will not. I want to be fully awake and boldly cross over that line and realize the incomprehensible potential of my consciousness, to be connected to everything and everyone, to be in control with a mind that is totally free of the bondage it has been in for far too long! But the line keeps getting blurry when I aproach it because I am still too trouble by This Life and my personal struggles.. fiancially mainly, to fully pursue this quest. Still I must put all these "worldy worries" aside in order to break free and pursue this quest which the closer I get will liberate me and allow me to achieve a certain amount of "success" and happiness along the way while still in this vessel. I often wonder which is worse, being an automaton with no asperations or thoughts f crossing that line.. or even knowing there is an imaginary line, or the burden of knowing and desperately seeking to connect with our full potential... which may be limitless. For some it comes easier to free the mind others, and others find it harder and may need a radical "Jump Start" - for example a serious infusion of brain chemicals - natural "keys to the universe within and outside(one in the same?) to unlock a much wider perception that lets them see beyond all limits, maybe do to personal issues reinforced by their formative years and mistakes made because of the emotional and metal scars that have yet to heal. Scientist can not explain so much of what is real as hard as they try within the limits of the "scientific method" They are just now starting to merge the previous taboo of merging science with the spiritual. We as humans in my opinion should be much further along by now. As far as "limitlessness of self " I don't know if that is a proper term. I still believe in a supreme being, a creator that came before all.. I call It "God". I do not strive nor wish to be a god, only to connect with him as closely as i can, and just be the ultimate Human Soul I can be. And I belive that people who have no interest or belief in these possiblities.. the true automatons, will die in a sense.. never being liberated from that narrow minded idea that there is no line, that this physical illusion is all there is. I feel sorry for them and fear that people I know with this frame of mind will remain stuck even past physical death. I hope I never give up on my quest, I can't imagine ever regressing to a state of disbelieving in what I alrady know.. that knowledge wich eats away at me as I trudge thru the dulldrums of daily life trap in the confines of this"Matrix" of limitation enforced by the world that the human collective has created. It makes me think of the "traitor" in the Matrix movie that would kill to get plugged back into the illusion, who said "Why didn't I just take the Blue Pill".. I would rather spend the rest of mylife striving to free my mind than to be a mindless drone, oblivious to all the infinite possiblities of Consciousness and the hope that the quest for that freedom spreads like wildfire to every human mind on this planet until one day All will be connected and "I" will be less important than We.. because we are One, with each other and with God.. we are the collective conscious yet are still each unique individuals... all Beautiful sentient spiritual beings, only flawed in these vessels and by the hammer of social/political thought control. May we all assend far beyond, sooner than later. Bryan M.

YES! Barry, you have just said so eloquently what I have been thinking..Knowing for a long time. I tried to expressit in my Blog and your way of expressing it expanded upon my thoughts in much more profoundly understandable way! I was just about to write about this very topic in a different way but no I do not know what I can say to express this idea any better than you have, I wish I had read this sooner. You have done more research and put more thought into this topic where as I tend to do a little research about what I feel to be true and then lock myself in my own mind to figure it out and com up with the words to express it.. All I can say is Well Done Barry D. You seem to amaze me more and more recently, you are much more intelligent and Aware tha anyone I know. You seem to be much closer to Freeing Your Mind Than I. Bryan M. P.S. i still miss our profound conversations on the phone and in person, I hope that we can resume that soon.. one Conscious Computer to another without using this non-conscious one as our only means of communication.

Great Work Administrator! This should launch this site like a rocket. I am very impressed with the continued progress you have made in such a short time. And I know that most of the progress of this unique website depends on the contributions of the members. I will do my best to try and provide more interesting and diverse content. But I really wish we could get other members to contribute and exchange ideas. I don't understand the reluctance of most members to contribute anything at all. Hopefully as this site catches on, it will draw in more responsive members... many many many more, like thousands. Eventually, it will happen. You have gotten us this far, we can bring this all the way. I believe we have Gods approval, we are doing something good. Well you made it happen. And I think if we could give back somehow we should, in some form of promoting charities on our site... if that is legal, doable etc. This website will hopefully draw in not just intellectuals but also people who care... like we do. I'm so happy that this idea has become a reality, thank you for all of the work you have put into this. I would like to learn how to make my own videos to post if you can suggest any software I can get cheap to make quality videos instead of just grabbing you-tube stuff. I'd rather make this as original as possible, and continue to encourage the other members to help with that. I have a lot of ideas for video. But we need to get together to do it... some live interviews out on the streets etc. Somethings we talked about a long time ago, nothing too outrageous. But I think that kind of personal touch will be key, and we will be promoting the site as we interview people all over just getting their opinions on various things. We can go from the bars in Milford this spring when it gets warm and the younger crowds pack in, to Church parking lots, to Masonic temples to the average Joe in the store... I Know we can do this and get a lot of fans based just on our live videos. And even do some videos of just us discussing topics like a talk show, and get the members to contribute their own web-cam responses and commentaries. Bryan.
