Well said!

Great Breakthroughs are usually found like this, somebody going over a basic idea, and thinking about it and figuring out something amazing.
This theory needs more attention than the virtually unprovable, and "epicycle" filled string theory (earth sized particle accelerators won't exist anytime soon).
Occam's Razor, the simplest solution tends to be the right one.

Wolff isn't saying he knows everything, and name-calling (he's a phony) is an invalid argument-form. I understand your worry about crackpots (new age folks being the typical crowd for that). But having such a hostile view to different ideas is not productive.
Sorry

Please watch this 'Jeremy Narby -Biospheric TV' where he is trying to explore what consciousness is /watch?v=gEKjAmEHDa0
Do you gell with this? Can you add something from your perspective to what he is exploring here?

Thanks. I would prefer though if you said the body was BOTH not-real and real. For reasons that--my interest has been mythology, and I find that many of the myths denigrate Nature. Focussing on Eastern Idealism which states reality is 'illusion' Maya, negative consequences have come for that concept

I am convinced this knowledge is critical to our future survival.
We certainly would not destroy nature and pollute our environment, as they are a part of us.
WSM also tells us that evolution and ecology are very important, as they relate directly to the fundamental aspect of reality, it is a dynamic unity, all things are interconnected and changing (due to spherically vibrating space - the spherical in out waves provide continual 2 way communication between wave center 'particles').

Hi Z,
Very good question - what it is really all about. What we are as humans existing in the universe, how does this affect our life.
The short answer.
1. WSM provides a foundation for deducing the truth about things, to allow us to act wisely (the opposite of current humanity).
2. It tells us that matter and space are one thing (there are no discrete particles as Einstein realised).
We humans are extended in space, the body is an illusion.
This will change how we treat our world.

I am very interested in this but am relly new to it. So i ask this question: how does what this means effect this here MACRO world?...what are/will be consequences?

What do you do in life ? Please tell me, I'm sure I can do it better than you !
This is presicely what you are telling me, that you can perhaps understand physics better than I do, but this is my job !
Most scientist I know understand perfectly science, at least it's current state. Does that mean they know everything ? No, but they know enough to tell that Wolff Philosophy is a phony ; he has no credibility at all in the scientific community. Read real scientific journals,not youtube.
