Is Mind the seed or cause of this physical Universe ?

It is said that the residual characteristics of the mind (ego, desire, anger, envy, hatred, etc) led to the churning of the unmanifested universe (in the form of energy) which ultimately resulted in this creation. Is this the future of the Science ?

Interesting isn't it ?

    Interesting indeed!

    Yes, our mind envisages and interprets the physical universe, thus giving it shape and form in a special way. The universe is 'what' we see it through our mind's eye, and we make of the universe, what we take it for. Don't you see, negative feelings in our minds make the universe a deplorable place to live in. On the other hand, if all of us nurture and exude positive feelings, the universe will by itself transform into a heavenly place to be in.....! such is the greatness of the MIND!

    According to quantum physics its not out of the question. It's rather unlikely though and I can see no practical use for believing such. We perceive matter in the universe according to what we are exposed to as babies. The neural pathways for matter recognition are formed from birth to teenage. They did some experiments on kittens, putting some in an environment with only horizontal lines and another in an environment with only vertical lines. When they swapped their environments the full grown cats were bumping into everything. They simply could not see. On examination the neural connections to recognize these things had not formed.

    As humans we are bombarded from birth with a labeling system for everything our parents and society perceives. In cultures where the spiritual is also included, this is also perceived.

    Practicing Shaman... quantum physics rocks.

    Shaman Val sure has a lot to say doesn't she?

    Anyway the mind is NOT the seed or the CAUSE of the universe. That kind of solipsism or idealism may have been interesting a few centuries ago, but we are much more enlightened in this modern day... we have plenty of reason to believe that the universe exists independent of whether our minds perceive it or not.

    The universe is not mind-dependent. It never was.

    Sounds like a very science-babbleish way of saying the simple Truth that Jesus taught at the Sermon on the Mount:-

    Matthew 5:27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:

    5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.

    Mind can not be the cause of this physical universe as mind also is superfine inert matter.The universe has come out of the living element prevalent through the length and breadth of the universe.Mind itself is the effect of a cause caused by this living element.This living element is the causeless cause of the universe.

    this physical universal ejects out of the unexplainable bliss state of universal conscious energy.

    mind always wants to understand,,,wants to see reason,,,since this unexplainable bliss state is not understandable to mind---then the people who are with mind can't find the source by experiencing the universal conscious energy.

    I'm pretty sure mind is the cause of form. But that doesn't necessarily mean mind is the cause of matter (or energy as it really is).

    Without the mind, there is nobody who cares where one form/thing ends and where another begins.
