Professor Tart's Latest Book: The End of Materialism

Migrated topic.
In the late 1960's Tart did an "experiment" where he had a number on a shelf in a hospital. One woman undergoing surgery was able to read the number. Tart claimed is was proof that he had invalidated materialism and that the OBE involved the womans soul floating above her body.

Not only was this never repeated successfully but it was also found by another group to be an outright incorrect assumption. Why? Because in the same room was a clock that reflected the number so the patient easily could see it.


If Tart really was such a good scientist and investigator he would not have made such an extraordinary claim while leaving a gaping hole in his "experiment".
 
All just concepts..all meaningless words...all hung up, bent on explaining everythng away..nothing but HABIT..there is no explaining ANYTHING..there is only the infinity of direct experience...nothing else is fully relevent.
 
I love how consciousness is capable of totally bizarre and amazing things,
but when you go to scientifically test that, you don't get much.
Kind of like some giggles, and that's it.

Those who've experienced, know. Those who haven't, just can't imagine how it's even possible.
