The best way to look at it to me is that if you're going to live forever or for a very long time, you should be able to live with yourself and that means watching out to prevent existential harm to anyone and working towards a society that is integrated as such and where no one lives a compromised existence. Esp. as it's going to be a long existence.
Everything we see is the way it is only to us, the observers of these things. To another perception system everything is different. And all physical laws will be different to that system (conscious being).
I was wrong to give such a brief summary for that book, because many think that its concepts are not new.
It actually explains many phenomena such as:
- many-world existence,
- holographic nature of the universe,
- multiple destinies and parallel existence of many interpretations of the same personality,
- why prophecies come true or not,
- the subjectivity of any perception system,
- the process of dying and what happens in consciousness at each stage of it,
- what is that which we consider ghosts and poltergeist,
- somnambulism,
- why some people worship this or that totem,
- how we are all connected will all other creatures and why there are so many diseases like Alzheimer’s, mental disorders, dissociated personality, attention deficient hyperactivity disorder, etc.,
- what is the reason of birth deformities,
- why some people cannot understand each other while others easily do it,
- the biochemistry of falling in love,
- what actually happens when we communicate with our pets,
- why there can be so drastic shifts in the mood,
and many others.
