Where Science and Buddhism Meet PART 1 of 2

Excellent except for one problem.. The background music is too loud and almost overpowers the narration . I found it very annoying in volume .

A good demonstration, thanks. :)

Mind appears in the heart. Not in the brain, no in the head. But, in psychology, mind is in the head, in the brain. This is the huge difference. Concept of Buddha is "Mind leads Everything". That is one of basic essences of Buddha.

Fundamentally, there two types of science. Physical science and mental science. Everything we are saying about science today is just physical science. Psychology can't be as mental science, for it is a closed domain and very narrow in the comparison of Buddha's Abhidhamma. There are a lot of understanding and enlightenment which can't be accessed and proved by physical science. So, to compare these two different things would be difficult. It may seems to compare two numbers of different units.

Mind creates the Universe. Every causes are consequences of mind. It means mind is the leader of action. Action is the leader of result. Here is the power of mind. Without mind, there is no meaning in the word "creation". Human brain is like computer processor. But processor can't execute anything without mouse-click. Here, mind is similar to mouse-click. The only thing which can run through past-present-future is mind. Here the power of mind. MIND is the leader of everything.

I enjoyed much of this presentation. But this video demonstrates a couple serious misunderstandings of the science. The human mind does not have special powers that allow it and nothing else to convert a wave into a particle. Wave function collapse caused by measurement is not dependent on consciousness. The video confabulates human consciousness and measurement (e.g. by machine or grasshopper).
