Jiddu Krishnamurti and David Bohm talk about life and philosophy

Posted on by

I present to my readers two rare videos that were recorded sometime in the early 80’s

Unfortunately the quality of these videos is not great. Jiddu Krishnamurti was a highly respected Indian philosopher who died in 1986 and David Bohm was a highly respected physicist who died in 1992. The significant part of these two videos is that Bohm attempted to introduce eastern philosophy into his wider physics model. Krishnamurti was partly responsible for Bohm going down this track in physics and it subsequently destroyed Bohm’s professional physics career. I think that my readers should know about these things.

David Bohm is my favorite physicist.

Quantum effects can be replicated on a macro scale

Fluid Tests Hint at Concrete Quantum Reality

This video demonstrates that phenomena at a quantum level can be replicated in a limited manner on a macroscopic scale. The implications of this experiment in relationship to the future of physics seems to be immense. For the first time physicists can demonstrate quantum effects at a scale previously not thought to be possible.

Film made of the experiment, includes CGI charts [no sound]:

Did you know that Russia had the most advanced and powerful military aircraft in the world in 1914?

Russia was the first country to have bomber aircraft

When World War One started, military aviation was in its infancy. The flimsy airplanes available to the world’s military forces in August 1914 were used mainly for reconnaissance. Russia, considered backward in so many ways, was the only country to have a bomber– a four engine behemoth that dwarfed every other airplane in the world. This is a story about aircraft in Russia at that time.

CIA releases 13 million pages of declassified documents online

What follows is a BBC article that discusses some of the contents of this CIA release

The trove includes the papers of Henry Kissinger, who served as secretary of state under presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford, as well as several hundred thousand pages of intelligence analysis and science research and development. I think that you will find the segment on famous spoon bending Uri Geller is fascinating. I quote from the text as follows:

“Memos detail how Mr Geller was able to partly replicate pictures drawn in another room with varying – but sometimes precise – accuracy, leading the researchers to write that he “demonstrated his paranormal perceptual ability in a convincing and unambiguous manner”.”

If this statement is correct then this demonstration that the phenomena of non-locality in physics is correct.
