Everything we call real is made of things that cannot be regarded as real.

A quote by Nils Boer.

Consciousness cannot be accounted for in physical terms, for consciousness is absolutely fundamental.

It cannot be accounted for in terms of anything else.

A quote, for in terms of anything else.

A quote by Erwin Schrodinger.

I'm super excited to be talking about this topic.

This is a topic that I want to talk about for a long time, but it's a tricky topic to approach properly because we need to cover this topic from many different angles simultaneously, and there are a lot of traps of the mind that we can fall into very easily.

So we've had to build up to it.

This talk is going to be about quantum mechanics and non-duality. I'm not going to get into

super technical detail about what quantum mechanics is, although I will cover the

basics. What I'm interested in though more is the big picture and I'm

interested in the ramifications of quantum mechanics. What are the metaphysical and epistemological ramifications of quantum mechanics?

And what can quantum mechanics say about spirituality or non-duality?

Is there something worthwhile there to be gleaned from this science?

And let me address this concern right off the bat that what I'm going to be doing is just doing some typical new age

Justifications of

spirituality or religion. That's not what I'm going to be doing

I'm actually going to be quoting to you from very

serious scientists, not quacks, not fringe people, not new-aged people. I'm going to be

mostly quoting to you from the fathers of quantum mechanics themselves.

The big guys, Schrodinger and Einstein and Richard Feynman and Arthur Edington and Nils Boer and people like that.
