In the thesis, I explore the health belief systems of pasajeros, examining the syncretic space of the Temple in which Western and Eastern, New Age, biomedical, and shamanic discourses meet and intertwine to create novel sets of health beliefs, practices, and perceptions of the Self.

    The Relativity of Existence Stuart B. Heinrich [email protected] October 31, 2018 Abstract Despite the success of modern physics in formulating mathematical theories that can predict the outcome of experiments, we have made remarkably little progress towards answering the most fundamental question of: why is there a universe at all, as opposed to nothingness? In this paper, it is shown that this seemingly mind-boggling question has a simple logical answer if we accept that existence in the universe is nothing more than mathematical existence relative to the axioms of our universe. This premise is not baseless; it is shown here that there are indeed several independent strong logical arguments for why we should believe that mathematical existence is the only kind of existence. Moreover, it is shown that, under this premise, the answers to many other puzzling questions about our universe come almost immediately. Among these questions are: why is the universe apparently fine-tuned to be able to support life? Why are the laws of physics so elegant? Why do we have three dimensions of space and one of time, with approximate locality and causality at macroscopic scales? How can the universe be non-local and non-causal at the quantum scale? How can the laws of quantum mechanics rely on true randomness? 1 Introduction can seem astonishing that anything exists” [73, p.24]. Most physicists and cosmologists are equally perplexed. Over the course of modern history, we have seen advances in Richard Dawkins has called it a “searching question that biology, chemistry, physics and cosmology that have painted rightly calls for an explanatory answer” [26, p.155], and Sam an ever-clearer picture of how we came to exist in this uni- Harris says that “any intellectually honest person will admit verse.

  • Soul-Based-Learning & Universal Laws
    Soul-based-learning and Universal Laws by Marja de Vries (abbreviation of the article in Anthology 2004 "Path to Peace - Soul in Education", Global Meeting in Budapest 21st-24th october, 2004, published by SEAL-Hungary Foundation and the Institute for European Connections, oct. 2004, Budapest, Hungary; p. 61-72. The whole article can also be found at www.shapersofeducation.nl being Chapter 2 of the webbook The Hidden Power of Love in Learning, edited by Charlotte Korbee.) Why soul-based-learning? Flavio Cabobianco, a boy born in the early 80s in Argentina, wrote at age 8: “New children are being born. They are different human beings, although they don’t look different. I am just one of them, one of the first ones. Humanity is changing. The connection with the spiritual world becomes more open. All children can now maintain the oneness with their essence.” He adds that the new children have different needs and that to help those children the adults themselves need to become more open and less tempted to impose their ideas and worldviews. In his book Vengo del Sol (I come from the Sun), published in 1991, he tells that he can remember all details from the time before his conception and his birth and that he came this time to Earth to be a cosmic messenger and to speak about spiritual matters. Recently, more and more people worldwide are becoming aware of the fact, that we are indeed living in a time of big changes concerning many areas of life. They realize that old worldviews rapidly are being replaced by new ones and that indeed there might be an evolution in consciousness taking place.

Since the dawn of the history of science from Copernicus (who took the details of Ptolemy, and found a way to look at the same construction from a slightly different perspective and discover that the Earth is not the center of the universe) and Galileo to the present, we (a hoard of talking monkeys who's consciousness is from a collection of connected neurons − hammering away on typewriters and by pure chance eventually ranging the values for the (fundamental) numbers that would allow the development of any form of intelligent life) have gazed at the stars and attempted to chart the heavens and still discovering the fundamental laws of nature often get asked: What is Dark Matter? ...

  • Conceptual Problems in Cosmology
    Conceptual Problems in Cosmology F. J. Amaral Vieira Departamento de F´ısica, Universidade Estadual Vale do Acara´u(UVA) Avenida Dr. Guarani 317, CEP 62040-730, Sobral, Cear´a,Brazil e-mail: [email protected] (Dated: November 14, 2011) In this essay a critical review of present conceptual problems in current cosmology is provided from a more philosophical point of view. In essence, a digression on how could philosophy help cosmologists in what is strictly their fundamental endeavor is presented. We start by recalling some examples of enduring confrontations among philosophers and physicists on what could be contributed by the formers to the day-time striving of the second ones. Then, a short review of the standard model Friedmann-Lema^ıtre-Robertson-Walter (FLRW) of cosmology is given, since Einsteins days throughout the Hubble discover of the expansion of the universe, the Gamow, Alpher and Herman primordial nucleo-synthesis calculations and prediction of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation; as detected by Penzias and Wilson, to Guth-Linde inflationary scenarios and the controversial multiverse and landscape ideas as prospective way outs to most cosmic conceptual conundrums. It seems apparent that cosmology is living a golden age with the advent of observations of high precision. Nonetheless, a critical revisiting of the direction in which it should go on appears also needed, for misconcepts like \quantum backgrounds for cosmological classical settings" and \quantum gravity unification” have not been properly constructed up-to-date. Thus, knowledge-building in cosmology, more than in any other field, should begin with visions of the reality, then taking technical form whenever concepts and relations inbetween are translated into a mathematical structure.

This allowed for the measurement of night-time events with a water clock when certain stars crossed the vertical plumb line a 'transit line' , and these events could then be recorded by 'night-time lines' drawn on a sundial. However, they can be seen by telescopes when they suck in other stars, thus emitting x-rays. It turns out to be very difficult to devise a theory to describe the universe all in one go. The main characters of this non fiction, science story are ,. Quantum mechanics, on the other hand, deals with phenomena on extremely small scales, such as a millionth of a millionth of an inch. However, the time between the sun reaching successive meridians is often different from clock time. The big bang, which grew to be the dominant theory of the creation of the universe, is the basis for the third chapter. Plot Summary. The shape of the lamp gradually evolved into the typical pottery style shown. The brighter the star, the nearer to Earth they must be. Nuclear forces unite the quarks into neutrons and protons and keep the neutrons and protons together in atoms. Orion contains some of the brightest stars in the southern part of the winter sky in the northern hemisphere and can be seen later in the southern hemisphere.
