God is consciousness (clip)

[ChiroDoc]

For those who might be interested, below is a clip from a presentation by Rupert Sheldrake, PhD on the subject of God being consciousness. During the 18 minute clip he also mentions NDEs, individual's methods of completely inhabiting the present, and other subjects.

I like that he considers that the word "supernatural" needs reconsideration by all who use it. Understanding definitions are very important when trying to understand these issues, and much of the have come to hold, hard and fast, to definitions that support their personal beliefs/partialities... rather than open their position for reasonable discussion.

As for God being the consciousness of the universe... well, as a Christian, I'd say that might be a good starting point, but a bit "lacking" of the whole nature of God.

I enjoyed the video very much. I’ve had many near death experiences. It’s nice meeting others who have been through the same type of thing who can explain it in the same way it’s experienced.
