In his book Schizophrenia - The Sacred Symbol of Psychiatry, psychiatry professor Thomas S. Szasz, M.D., says "There is, in short, no such thing as schizophrenia" (Syracuse University Press, 1988, p. 191).
Among other things, we have tried to establish that the schizophrenia model of unwanted conduct lacks credibility.
In his book Against Therapy, published in 1988, Jeffrey Masson, Ph.D., a psychoanalyst, says
"There is a heightened awareness of the dangers inherent in labeling somebody with a disease category like schizophrenia, and many people are beginning to realize that there is no such entity"
(Atheneum, p. 2). Rather than being a bona-fide disease, so-called schizophrenia is a nonspecific category which includes almost everything a human being can do, think, or feel that is greatly disliked by other people or by the so-called schizophrenics themselves.
There are few so-called mental illnesses that have not at one time or another been called schizophrenia.

There you go, even the governments know that theres more to the physical world so why dont we have a sponsored organization by the government confirming existence beyond the physical that is widely known and AVAILABLE TO THE AVERAGE JOE like all these other institutes?

1) Lots of word salad here. No offense, kind of made me think you have a problem like schizophrenia or something (I'm not a doctor, so I can't prescribe you or anything), just a disconnection from reality.
2) Nope, and as you get more intelligent, that "realization" (delusion) goes down. At the average IQ of 100, 90% of people have that realization and 10% don't. At the above average IQ of 140 (top .5% of the population), 10% of people have that delusion and 90% don't.
3) You just said a bunch of random non-sense that you made up off the top of your head and all of your claims are groundless.

Like I said its impossible for me to articulate on a physical level where there are "common perceptions" and the only way to communicate is through language. All I did was give you an idea (more like a feeling if you will) and tried to describe it. I dont need to have ground for my claims, it was a feeling I had and there is no way I can give you physical evidence. I dont think you understand the irrelevance your arguments have to this thread.

These feelings you base your idea of a higher planed existance on are also physical things. That just doublescores how worthless the idea is.

There is something that just is. Something that has no limit. its impossible for me to articulatly describe but i will try my best. There is no word that could possibly describe this but I will go with the word "Highest".
"Highest" as I stated above has no limits, it cant be measured in anyway, its not bound to anything, its boundless. Its everything not just around us but EVERYTHING. We are "Highest", our thoughts are "Highest", this thread is "Highest", EVERYTHING is "Highest".
The reason we are traped in this so called "reality" is because "Highest" is too unlimited for its own good. So it creates defusions within it self, we are one of the many products of these defusions. The reason why some of us feel like there is more than just this physical "reality" is because "Highest" is trying to communicate with us. The reason why we have trouble understanding these communications is because we are just as powerful as the communicator because we are "Highest" aswell.
I think we all have come to the realization that there is more than just this physical "reality". So how do we escape this physical "reality"?
Realizing we are "Highest". Realizing we are everything and everything is us. If we realize this we will be unlimited and anything will be possible. That is what freedom is.
your thoughts?

Do you not see a pattern emerging?
Ever heard of remote viewing?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Remote viewing (RV) is a skill by which a person (a "viewer") can perceive objects, persons, or events at a location removed from him or her by either space or time. In other words, one does not actually have to be there, nor does one need any so-called "physical" connections, such as television, telephone, etc., to gain information about the target. RV exploits and improves upon what is more commonly called "psychic" ability (an overused word that has accrued unfortunate connotations), and works whether the target is in the next room or on the other side of the planet. Neither time nor any known type of shielding can prevent a properly-trained remote viewer from gaining access to the desired target.
Paul H. Smith served for seven years in the government's remote viewing program at Ft. Meade, MD (from September 1983 to August 1990). During 1984, he became one of only a handful of government personnel to be personally trained as coordinate remote viewers by Ingo Swann at SRI-International.

Remote Viewing
There you go, even the governments know that theres more to the physical world so why dont we have a sponsored organization by the government confirming existence beyond the physical that is widely known and AVAILABLE TO THE AVERAGE JOE like all these other institutes?
Of course not because if everyone could have access to hands on experience of the non physical then the governments could not control us through FEAR anymore because we would know there is life beyond what we see.
When you realise why they dont want you to know this then you will realise you have been cheated by science all your life.
You can carry on trying to prove to yourself that theres only the material world, but i KNOW and many other people KNOW that there is more than what meets the eye.
Lets just agree to disagree because no matter what your trying to prove to me its not going to work and no matter what im trying to explain to you will work either so lets call it quits or we will be making pointless posts all night.
This will be my last reply to you.
Enjoy!
Namaste!
