02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMWe are not just a human though. That first blind assumption which is not stated supports the whole of the statement. Without the first assumption being true the rest is completely false or meaningless.

@davideagin5321
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMHere's a perceptive pattern, the universe is the only constant we know and everything else inside of it comes and goes, lives and dies. And so will we. We're a fart in the wind and to act like humans are going to become gods one day is a bit absurd. It sounds fun, but it's a pipe dream.
@taurusgem4244
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMYou can name as many people as you want, but until you recognize what THOTH left us with, anything that you are saying is nothing new and manifesting the truth into your own truth is not necessarily truth, but your interpretation and validation of your own self and being that which you perceive existence of all that is around you.

@timelessperspective
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMIt bothers me that he didn't mention Terence Mckenna when he quoted him, "We take matter of low organization, put it through our mental filters and extrude it as space shuttles…" I like what Jason does, but references are important.
@charlesbrightman4237
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMModern science says that a singular mass that banged created everything in this universe, including the very laws of nature that it operates by as well as living beings that have consciousness.
Now, do we and all we perceive exist, really exists per se, OR does only this singular mass exist in the form of all things including you and me and our consciousness?
And, if energy is truly eternally existent, since modern science says that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, (hence it's either eternally existent or modern science is wrong), does this singular mass eternally exist in some form of energy?
If "Space" is pure energy itself and "Time" is the flow of energy, then we being energy in motion, are a part of space and time itself.

@nonreductionism
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMActually this is some far sighted mish-mashing because it's conflating "idealistic and materialistic" or "transcendent and immanent" metaphysical ideas of "awakening as the universe" and "transcending matter". The poetry is similar but the underlying assumptions and ultimate conclusions are totally different. This confusion and conflation is a major problem and it's due to a lack of trans-rational or post-formal clarity. Which means we are having problems qualifying our poetry, and being able to say which ideas are more good/true. We are also not understanding ideas in context so we are confusing and conflating things that look or sound similar, but are not really the same. It's a common problem. Another example of this same problem is: when people confuse and conflate "the witness" from Buddhist ideas and "the observer" effect in quantum theory. These are not the same. They may sound similar but we have to understand ideas in context.

@mastertheillusion
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMDeeply fascinating stuff here.
Although some of the comments on youtube betray a lack of understanding with the clinging to the idea of absolute truths. We don't have absolutes. We do have claims supported by mathematics which could eventually be proven wrong and replaced by other claims with greater future evidence. There are no absolutes except for those demanding them.

@MrAvidLearner
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMSilva has the most amazing ability to condense, reduce, concentrate and extrapolate absolute truths in these most neatly packaged gifts of transcendent language. It's amazing. I'm awed by his ability.
I'd love to hear his thoughts about Susskind's Anthropic Principle and its implications… or his thoughts around Quantum Entanglement, or Masuru Emoto's rice/water studies…

@afatasidylan
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMJason Silva is awesome. He's opened me up to Ray Kurzvield and the imminent singularity. It's really cheesy, but lately it's what's keeping me looking forward in life. Really cool stuff. Good upload.
@bighands69
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMThe universe is dictated by energy and mass and it is not infinite all of the scientific data supports this.
@arturasltuorlovas
02/20/2025 - 9:47 PMThe Universe is infinite and eternal. You're still stuck man, go deeper, go within and question some things… Also you're an eternal infinite being, just this Human body is a vehicle to experience this materialistic universe that is turning itself from matter to spirit. We are free. Especially you transcend your material by realizing who you truly are at your deepest core.
