We have a pretty good idea of what the processes are in the brain. We know where emotions, aggression, memory, etc., come from. We do not know the exact processes of consciousness but that doesn't mean we should substitute "I don't know" for something supernatural if that's what you're suggesting.Where is consciousness located? In our brains? I've read that this question is really not resolved in modern medicine.
I would not suggest that our lack of understanding consciousness proves anything. I would say that it allows for the possibility of the supernatural, and it is curious that we do not understand it better. It does give me hope, I suppose. But ultimately it may mean nothing.We have a pretty good idea of what the processes are in the brain. We know where emotions, aggression, memory, etc., come from.

I met a guy who went south and did the whole ayahuasca deal and he kept going on about how everything is dmt how it's in every grain of the universe he was obsessed with the notion of dmt. I just kept nodding my head and saying oh yeah, that right. Even after this profound awakening he could not see the unimportance of all things.
Everything’s sacred, and nothing is sacred. We’re all God—everything is—so how could it be important? Nondualism means everything is not-two. When you realize how eternal you are, you have only eternity to cope with.I met a guy who went south and did the whole ayahuasca deal and he kept going on about how everything is dmt how it's in every grain of the universe he was obsessed with the notion of dmt.

Very well saidEverything’s sacred, and nothing is sacred. We’re all God—everything is—so how could it be important? Nondualism means everything is not-two. When you realize how eternal you are, you have only eternity to cope with.
Yeah. And the one before that. And the one before that. They call it Samsara.You'll go the same place you went last time.
Remember your birth? Death will be the same as that.
The interaction between consciousness and wave/particle duality in quantum physics suggests that the very fabric of our universe may be consciousness. Prior to breakthroughs in this area, this type of relationship would perhaps be thought of as supernatural.I'm not suggesting our lack of consciousness proves anything.
How does anything leave room for the supernatural? Name one thing, anything, that's been proven to be supernatural and you might have a case for allowing the possibility for the supernatural.
Everything came from nothing, according to science. Nothing collapsed in on itself, exploded and expanded, creating everything. Seems like nothing is pretty damned important.The interaction between consciousness and wave/particle duality in quantum physics suggests that the very fabric of our universe may be consciousness.

Sounds suspect.The interaction between consciousness and wave/particle duality in quantum physics suggests that the very fabric of our universe may be consciousness. Prior to breakthroughs in this area, this type of relationship would perhaps be thought of as supernatural.
Science asserts intelligent design. Something’s guiding evolution. This is Hindu/Sramanic/Vedic/Buddhist/Jain/Sikh thought since at least 2,800 BCE. They knew about atoms back then, and had a deep understanding of astrology, metallurgy, quantum physics, and generally, much of what modern and post-modern science is rediscovering after writing it off as either heresy or nonsense. This school of thought also is the basis for modern psychology. Psyche means soul. The Study of the Soul.Sounds suspect.
Who or what organization is saying the universe itself is consciousness?
