22. The pivotal question – are we flesh robots or not?

One day when I was 20 years old the whole world around me changed in appearance. I had tunnel vision and I had an eerie feeling of not being rooted. The thought that I, the real ”I”, was just that lump of flesh in my skull scared the hell out of me.

I didn’t understand it at the time, but today I am convinced it was my higher self trying to tell me that my inkling was correct.

The babble going on in your head is just an annoying roommate. At your core, you are something much larger.

The separation between science and spirituality was probably necessary a few hundred years ago, when science was challenging the supremacy of traditional religions. But religion and spirituality are different things. Today it’s ever harder for science to state without hesitation that consciousness is solely placed between the ears.

It’s time to end that complete separation. Thesis and antithesis should meet in a beautiful synthesis.
