Who said that I am the only one? I quoted the very owner of this list stating the same truth about non-local consciousness. I linked a 900 page book dealing with the subject in a very logical manner.
There are literally thousands of enlightened beings who will tell you the same thing using different (maybe less technical) words. There are thousands of books on meditation and enlightenment. At the core of every major religion and eastern philosophy there is an enlightened master who said the same thing using contemporary analogies and metaphors. (And yes, really existing religion is cancerous and has nothing to do with the transpersonal teaching of said beings.) I just wanted to point out that Fermi's Paradox is only a paradox as long as you are stuck analyzing a virtual reality instead of turning your head around and looking at the opposite direction ... looking at how to transcend the very reality/framework your focus keeps you trapped in. I am completely irrelevant ... I am just trying to get people to realize how most of us (especially some of the most intelligent people within academia as they believe that solely extracting information from within the virtual reality is the smartest thing to do) are collectively ignoring the very key aspects of our existence and how this ignorance completely biases and perverts our worldview and our assumptions.
