Empirical scientific evidence of the Law of One

[Sacred Fool]

  
Very interesting and intelligent video.  Thanks for posting.

He gives a good critique of materialism/positivism (showing that it has no good explanation of consciousness), then offers give an interesting model of "reality" which accepts  One Consciousness as axiomatic and from there builds a theory of division into beings of separated consciousness using research on Dissociative Identity Disorder.

There are some differences with Confederation philosophy, but these are on a more extended level that wouldn't be apparent to an observer on this guy's level.  Examples: (1) He does not accept 1D conscious, says inanimate objects (from a virus on down) have no consciousness.  (2) He does not does not have a theory of illusions upon or within illusions, sees death as being a return to the whole.  (3) Beyond dying, or temporarily with psychedelics, he does not have a theory of how to loosen dissociative boundaries to begin to merge with all.

He does have a notable parallel with Confederation teachings in that he says, borrowing from religious terminology, we are God's spies.  God doesn't know what we know until we experience it as us.  He uses this to support the notion that, although the state following death is cool--he knows this from having used psychedelics--it's important to live life while you have the opportunity here.
