Active Information

Mind has remained a metaphysical riddle for centuries because it inhabits the physical world like a ghost. But that’s a Western perspective based on our bias for solid, tangible things. We insist that the brain must be the source of mind because the brain is a visible object, which is like saying that a radio must be the source of music because it is a visible object from which music emerges.
The Vedic rishis adopted the opposite perspective, insisting that visible objects couldn’t be the source of mind since the physical plane is the least conscious of worlds. It may seem significant that the brain is active during thought, but a radio is active during a broadcast.
Mind will only be proved to exist outside the brain if it leaves some kind of footprint, a visible sign that is as convincing as the MRI’s that provide concrete evidence of neural activity. One such piece of evidence is information.
No scientist has a problem believing that matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed, and the cutting edge of physics is grappling with the notion that information cannot be created or destroyed, either.
What we see in the universe is constant transformation. Helium atoms that fuel the sun send heat to Earth that gets transformed by photosynthesis into plants and all other life-forms. It can fairly be said that life consists of the sun’s atoms exchanging information with atoms on Earth. (Energy is information in the sense that all chemical or electrical charges can be expressed as plus or minus, positive or negative, zero or one.)
It doesn’t matter, then, that your body bears no resemblance to a fiery star. Both are part of the same information field, which undergoes endless transformation within itself.

add your comment »part 3: Only so-called moon mind believing that the Universe is constant transforming because they think that Helium atoms are the fuel of the sun, the sun is thermonuclear furnace and it sends heat to earth and because of that there is life on earth. "Thermonuclear fusion powers the Sun." The phrase is no longer spoken with any implied question. However, a growing number of independent scientists, engineers, and researchers insist that the popular theory is wrong. They say that the Sun is an electrical phenomenon and not strictly fed by nuclear fusion; it is a localized glow discharge through plasma and is fed by electric currents flowing through the galaxy.
I have read one spiritual teacher says that The universe is full of hydrogen gas. Leave it alone for 13 billion years. It turns into rosebushes, giraffes and humans. Moon minds believe this kind of information (waves) and it is strange that they write books and conferences to make believe to convince many.

They prefer prayer to meditation. Prayer doesnt disturb these waves (information) but it helps to believe.
It, believed that matter and energy cannot be created or destroyed but now science has reach to the higher level and there are every observation, which proves that what up to now we believed Matter is not matter so how it can be created or destroyed So the case with information. What moon mind thinks, it is information, in reality it doesnt exist, as the waves of sea seem to exist but in reality it is just outer influence. How it is possible for something which doesnt exist can be created or destroyed. Meditation techniques are nothing but a technique which allow this so-called mind, not to influence by outside waves (information) so the Witness have the larger possibility to observe from heart and once the witness is at heart, it is very easy to reach to being.
I was reading a spiritual teachers interview, one of his statement makes clear to me how moon mind function. The statement is: When realization becomes full and permanent I call it enlightenment. For moon mind waves is real and they are waiting that may be one day this arc will be circle. I wrote this spiritual teacher, dont you think when realization becomes full and permanent; there will be nobody who will call it enlightenment.

Moon minds have limited knowledge, this limited knowledge is truth for moon mind, these moon minds go on creating a frame and from that frame, they creates ideas. It is very easy to manipulate individuals who are in search with those ideas.
Half truth is dangerous. For example, waves from surface appear as an arc but in realities waves move in circle so for moon mind arc becomes truth and because arc is a part of the circle, they are able to make it believe.
Only Moon Mind insists that the brain must be the source of mind. Radio is possible only when it is ON; secondly radio can receive waves from which music emerges only when from broadcasting side they transmit a certain radio waves (information). Broadcasting crew may create music or any waves (information) and Radio can receive only at certain radio station on radio set which waves (information) emerges.
So we all born with brain, which function only if our heart beats and our heart only can beat if our being beats Now brain is nothing but an instrument, which is capable to receive information from outside and can memorized, send information to other parts of the body, and organizes for future and so on only it is not capable to be in present, one can call it Mind. This information (waves) can be Indian, Italian, Hindu, and Eastern, Western or whatever this is the reason why an Indian, a Christian, a Hindu and so on finds difficulty to enter into Meditation. They prefer prayer

Thanks for this interesting article. If God is Mind and we are the image and likeness of God, we reflect the one Mind. That opens up the possibility of a spiritual creation in which our thought processes don't have to deteriorate with time as long as we stick to the perfection of Mind's creation. Our knowing of this perfect relationship with God, exemplified by Jesus, can bring healing of mind and body to all of us, as Jesus promised.

Illumination to be sane in the brain comes from one single source OUR ONE CREATOR GOD.
For one to be aware of other matters than what is visible only takes one thing A God Consciousness
And to have that one must revere the fact that We mankind came from the creative mind of our ONE GOD Creator.
And to get there one must have the desire to know the TRUTH. Or another word in likes fashion WISDOM.
Now to find TRUTH and WISDOM one must turn his/her back on the things offered in this world system that is against that knowing. Namely the lust of the flesh as known in the unbridled ID. Or EGO.
That is the path less taken by most, for it brings on them the need to be humble, kind, caring and have concern for other humans as ones own brother and sister.
The path most often taken today and that is propelled by the media and many in religious circles are The NEED for GREED.
Thus those taking that path find out often too late that the NEED for GREED leads to Insanity.
