Science is a method.

It involves testing, and attempting to falsify findings before claiming truth. What tests have you, or anyone, done to verify that DMT or ayahuasca trips are based in reality?

Advaita/Hinduism is a method, one you are projecting your false interpretations onto. So is Shamanism. Check that shit out!

And,
-Drs. Richard Alpert and Timothy Leary, Harvard,
-Terence McKenna, an ethnobotanist
-R. Gordon Wasson
Etc.

Advaita Vedanta (IAST, Advaita Vedānta; Sanskrit: अद्वैत वेदान्त, literally, not-two), originally known as Puruṣavāda, is a school ofHindu philosophy and religious practice, and one of the classic Indian paths to spiritual realization.

^^ Not science.

It's called mysticism.

Hinduism is strongly scientific. It’s the basis for many sciences, but particularly Psychology, Medicine, and Astrophysics. Google it. Because that’s why I’m calling you ignorant. You have no idea what you are talking about, and you have proven it.

Complete nonsense.

If you try hard enough you can rationalize anything. Hinuism (lol) is not science.

Not related, just curious if you are familiar with the double slit experiment and what you think of the interpretations of the results?

So, he speculated about atoms....

He used exactly zero science. If I make guesses about things, chances are a few of them will be right. What exactly do you think this proves?

The laws of chance, but you already knew that.
When something is not an absolute yes or no, and is an unknown or unproven thing, it falls into the range of possibility.

Also, using "science" can sometimes be about confirmation bias.
What if what we call consciousness is just another state of being among several possibilities? How would we prove it isn't?


Note - I'm not disagreeing with you or agreeing with you, I don't know the answer, just enjoying reading this discussion and all the commentary.​

Why do you believe the year 2200 will be any different than 1800? Honest question.
