The Metaphysics of Physics: A Talk by Dr. Laurance Doyle

Dr. Laurance Doyle, director of the Metaphysics of Physics Institute at #PrincipiaCollege, discusses metaphysics and physics.

Terrific talk. I especially like the insights that came out to of the Q&A session in the final 40 minutes. Thanks to Principia for making this available.

[@careyarber]

Excellent content. In the Q&A, you mention a book, 'Science and Health'. In case anyone wants to know, it's by Mary Baker Eddy (full title: 'Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures').

Wow! What could be more dynamic than this coming together of physics and metaphysics...Or the growing of mortal mind outgrowing itself!

Amazing talk! I've met Dr. Doyle twice - and he's probably the most intelligent and humble person I've met. Excellent insights into this emerging field of physics - and I'm certain in 30 years he will be considered one of the pioneers in quantum physics for the correct correlations he's discovering and presenting.

[@Bloghitterpage]

I agree with you he will. Although correlation does not imply causation, I tend to think correlation and intuition does.

[@Bloghitterpage]

more accurately can imply it.

OK - I've put this on a CD and am trying to figure out what's going on. The questions by the students are most cogent. May put it on my Walkman - will take repeated listenings to comprehend. The books given at the end are something I shall get - at least the Quantum Enigma one for starters.

Change is the universal substrate of the physical universe. Mass, matter, energy, momentum, light, gravity, entropy, etc. can all be understood in relation to it. Delta is the core of the ToE for physics.

Did I ever enjoy this. Thank you.

you are quickly becoming one of my favorites Dr. Doyle. Your grasp of metaphysics along with your understanding of physics is right where my interest are. I am working on a paper on the idea of time travel of consciousness into ones own past timelines. I don't believe there is anything preventing this and in fact happens possibly often to people without any understanding of it at all. But I do believe if I had to try to define what would cause it to take place It would be like anything else, consciousness and intention. I believe it has happened to me at least twice in my life and did not result so much in causing an alternate timeline, but heavily influenced the timeline I feel I lived in to present. Primarily through a increase of changes or decisions made which were influenced by a increase of higher level consciousness and sense of intuition on the choices I made. I would be curious to see what you might think of the idea of volitionally moving about in ones own alternate timelines. I caught one thing you said in this lecture that you believed if no one was observing you or you yourself there wasn't anything really preventing it. I would like to take it another step on that and say that in our conscious evolution there comes a point that we are conscious and intentionaly participants in the choices and it no longer requires the birth, life, death, rinse and repeat pattern for us to simply keep experiencing and growing, or evolving.

GREAT seminar just quite disturbing that i can't see what he's referring 2 with his laser pointer on the screen, could've been filmed better edit: also, it becomes quite distracting when the camera keeps filming yawning and half-asleep attendants all the time haha.. really great seminar but it's quite hard to focus on what he says with this terrible (or terrific, if terrible is the intention) filming x)

Dewey Larson is the only physicist you need to know. Do yourself a big favor.
