ON CONSCIOUSNESS again



Ithak Bentov was a pioneering thinker who did point us towards a non-materialistic explanation of consciousness. He explains some of the most difficult concepts of physics and heightened consciousness in ways that are easily understood (by my injured bran too). He was a Czechoslovakia-born Israeli-American scientist and inventor, who became an innovator in the field of bio-medical engineering in the USA. He suggested that consciousness is the common uniting element of all creation, and that through this link all things are in permanent contact.
Itzhak Bentov was a mechanical engineer, inventor, author and mystic and explorer of cosmic consciousness too.
This presents a model for the interaction of the universe and human thought that has profound implications for our future.
With a holistic model of the universe that encompassed not only physical, observable objects but also the distant universe and other ‘realities’ in writing the book entitled “Stalking the Wild Pendulum: On the quantum mechanics of consciousness” He was able to combine his curious mind with a courageous soul to explore the unknown realms of cosmic consciousness with just wit and humor as his luggage. His plan was to publish some of his work as a comic strip instead of a cosmic trip! Bentov had two ways to prepare himself for his “trips,” which were not drug-induced (mmmhhhhh!!). Initially, like Archimedes, he used the “wet method” of soaking in a bathtub full of hot water, going into a “twilight zone” to get flashes or ideas that he scribbled down on a notepad. Later he favored the “drier method” of meditation and relaxed concentration. He wrote: “I could attain remote reality by simply visualizing myself to be there, and there I was…

What did Bentov see at the highest levels of cosmic consciousness?
“There is no limit to the extent of human cosmic consciousness. It can expand to fill the universe, and then you can talk to the Creator. You can talk to all the beings, who are gods (as I’ve been saying for months); you have a diplomatic visa to infinity.” – Itzhak Bentov.
Bentov described two groups of advanced beings in different areas of the Absolute, the dark void above Manifest Creation, which looks like a translucent, shimmering sphere. Pure consciousness flows through your body, but it adds a slight vibration to it to produce a certain effect on the evolution of particular planets, because they have compassion for the beings on them. They will keep evolving and in time leave the population of Nirvana far behind.
What really left an impression of the thinking depth of this multi-faceted man is his saying: Our path is uniquely ours, so we own it. Don’t look for the meaning of life elsewhere. Give it its meaning by who you choose to be and how you choose to do things. Learn as you go. You are no less than a creator being in training in this and every moment of your life, which is eternal.
Itzhak Bentov has provided a new perspective on human consciousness and its limitless possibilities. Widely known and loved for his delightful humor and imagination, Bentov explains the familiar world of phenomena with perceptions that are as lucid as they are thrilling. He gives us a provocative picture of ourselves in an expanded, conscious, holistic universe. Amazon Prime Kindle book reading truly has opened doors that I’d never imagined to exist and – even if alone – I can fill my immense sadness and solitude with truly magnificent works of art.
