Bertrand Russell Speaks From Beyond: Consciousness, Panpsychism, and the Living Atom (1973 Session)
from CHARLES HAPGOOD on ELWOOD BABBITT the Medium of Massachusetts🇺🇸 · host Mark Holland | Curator, Hapgood-Babbitt Archive
Bertrand Russell Speaks From Beyond: Consciousness, Panpsychism, and the Living Atom (1973 Session)Dated December 23, 1973, Bertrand Russell says he still exists as energy and has been persuaded by “Mr. Clemens” to communicate through a body while learning its mechanics. Speaking with Mr. Hapgood, and responding to questions from Dr. Roberts of Harvard, he defines consciousness as a term for true feeling/energy rather than a brain-based entity, rejects a materialist label, and criticizes linguistic and overly scientific approaches to philosophy, including Wittgenstein. He says he began seeking certainty and ended with uncertainty, comments on his political work and being abused in New York over views on sexuality, and endorses panpsychism, asserting atoms, magnetic fields, snowflakes, and cells express living energy through vibrational balance and attraction. He argues human disharmony distorts cells and predicts a major spiritual realization around 2010
