A Gloria Steinem quote from a John Fugelsang post ; “We are linked. We are not ranked.” Neil deGrasse Tyson, where are you ?! I’d like to believe we are linked. I even remember a female astro-physicist saying the iron out there in space is the same as the iron in our blood. Fact check if you want but, these people, including Ms. Steinem are smarter than I will ever be ! Believing in the good in each other is a most powerful connection !! And, giving is sharing, sharing is loving. Love is a gift we can share. It’s in one of my songs too.
That sounds like it's even futher out than Steven Kraus' "A Universe From Nothing", which makes pefect sense when looking at where "God" is. It's like our galaxy is merely an atom in God's big toe. Don't stub your toe God!!
I believe we're all connected in ways we aren't consciously aware of. But I think we share the ideas that make a difference in the world by communicating physically- through speaking/hearing, reading, writing, and working on projects together- not meditating. Communicating must seep into our unconscious.
Meditating is beneficial to many, as I have often heard people testify to how it helps them. I've tried it, and I simply can't do it. I'm either awake, thinking, and doing, or asleep.
The Vedic tradition as long been described by Deepak Chopra's work has elaborated on a Western understanding of consciousness. Vedanta describes the universe in nondualistic terms, that is, not in either this or that but just that. As humans with advanced levels of consciousness we understand our reality as a field of opposites or one cannot know hot unless one knows cold.
But when one accesses silence through meditation one is exposed to a field of nondual reality in which there is no this or that field of reality but only that. "that" is a boundless field of infinite possibilities, a universal consciousness that projects our reality.
This is the field that Silberstein is studying from a matter science or as Chopra calls it, naive realism. The point that Hartmann observes is that the only escape from Silberstein's realism is through meditation or seeking access to the field of consciousness through quieting the mind in meditation.
I think something can definitely be said for groups of well meaning people gathering in mindful ways . Reinforcement of peaceful and rational mindsets has got to have a positive effect on the energy around us .
Now , looking at how chaos and discord have affected our collective consciousness, and propels angst in our everyday lives. It seems a reasonable assumption that peaceful coexistence must be healing. As for Meditation it’s not something to get exactly right it’s the effort of breathing as central to our collective spirit.

MASS MEDITATION ACTUALLY AFFECTING OBJECTIVE REALITY?
THAT IS MORE THAN FOOD FOR THOUGHT. IT IS A COMMUNAL BANQUET OF THOUSANDS.
Fascinating indeed. I will purchase the book. Thanks

My first serious peyote experience sixty years ago made all of this clear.
The premise of this book resonates with the Truths I've been encountering! It's exciting to see!
