I don't really know quantum mechanics, so I need your opinion. This guy is relating quantum mechanics to transcendental meditation. Is it possible that what he is saying is valid? www . youtube . com/watch?v=TfIqvZLIZz8 (talk about QM finished at about 2:50)

Same said on another forum, but further discussion was not allowed.
The guy is a PhD from Harvard. But the REAL problem is, he talked about the same thing in the same way in a video that was taped in (and coordinated by) Berkley University, here is the link: www . youtube . com/watch?v=V8TFcLgu5Ow Now, after I was searching for the video on youtube, I also found these (I didn't watch, yet:) University of Oregon: www . youtube . com/watch?v=vtgtkuKs8HQ University of Washington: www . youtube . com/watch?v=l1l-xALTO30 |

From wiki: "He received his master's degree at Washington State University in 1946, and his Ph.D. in psychology at the University of California, Berkeley in 1950."
Guess who? Timothy Leary. He even taught at Harvard. One of those cases where the merit of the content overrules the legitimizing authority of the institutions. -------------------- Any future development must involve changing something which people have never challenged up to the present,

He was a brilliant dude. You had to be there. We thought we were going to change the world. Our side was young. stoned, and naive. The enemy was devious and paranoid. The spitting image of Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan. The reactionary backlash goes on and on. |

I have no use for Leary,.. though I'm glad he inspired the Moody Blues to write 'Legend of a Mind'.
