> dhw:I have always understood your universal consciousness to be a single mind. Maybe it is. But I do not find this hypothesis any more believable than that of zillions of individual consciousnesses contained within zillions of organisms, all with their own different levels and abilities. Different communities may link up with one another as per Sheldrake's morphic resonance, and BBella's ALL THAT IS may be linked together in an endlessly interacting process of causes and effects, but these concepts do not require a single controlling mind.-Part of my thought process is Sheldrake's studies that imply species consciousness exists. A universal consciousness can at its source be God with various species parts, helping to explain our consciousness. BBella's ATI to me still is a version of God.
