I have the experience of my consciousness reaching to infinity and existing as seperate from me but being seperate from and also the engine for creation at the same time, and it's rather nice I have to say. But does it validate the unified field theory of consciousness? Who knows, it's impossible to be sure as it's totally subjective and therefore impossible to test for. I've always thought that similarity between certain mental states and some (by no means all) interpretations of quantum physics is an analogy because it seems too great a leap to make for what is a completely personal experience. Add the fact that it's impossible to prove, raises far more questions than it answers and can be explained more simply puts the UF theory in the realm of very bad science. But does that mean it's not true? Not at all, it just means that, to accept it, we would have to completely change our view of reality, losing most of what we now consider recieved knowledge and all on the say-so of a couple of mystics like me! Anyhoo, I don't think explanations matter as we don't change reality by wishing it was something else. Just enjoy it that's what I say, whatever it turns out to be.
