前置
・Raymond Moody が最近のインタビューでタイトルのような見解を述べている。彼自身の接神体験で得た「悟り or 神からのメッセージ」のエッセンスらしい。

手抜き
・彼の本、God is bigger than Bible


・15:10 結局のところ、全ては OK

コメント1
・精神世界や宗教に深くハマると、タイトルのようなイカれたアイデアが深奥の真理だと思い込むような特殊な精神状態になる。

コメント2
・contactee/abductee が UFO の中で ET から受け取るメッセージは、精神世界信者が チャネリングで download する教えと以下の点で共通している。

　(a) このままでは世界は大惨事に巻き込まれる。人類の意識を変える必要がある。

　(b) 意識の目が開けると「全てはひとつ」で、「無条件の愛」に包まれていることが観えてくる。

　(c) 現実がどれほど悲惨でも、結局のところ全ては OK だ。「善悪は本当は存在しない。全ては舞台の役柄のようなもの」だから。悲惨な役柄を演じているだけ。舞台が終われば全ては一座の芝居だったと気づく。

・この (a) と (c) は互いに真正面から激しく矛盾しあっているのだが、Raymond Moody を含め、精神世界信者はだれも気づかないでいる（or 矛盾から目を逸している）。(a) と (b) も互いに矛盾しあっている。

・つまり、(a) が正しければ必然的に (b) と (c) は虚偽となる。(b) や(c) が正しければ、(a) は虚偽となる。両立はしない。

・要するに、上記のような ET の教え、精神世界のチャネリング・メッセージ、宗教的な悟りは、どれもその根幹に虚偽や欺瞞を含んでいる。

・Raymond Moody が対面した神は、彼について全てを知悉していたという。

it was a somebody
14:01
knew from everything about me every
14:04
detail
14:05
and yet still there's a mysteriousness


・ここで気づかねばならない。この神の正体は彼（の深層意識）であることに。彼のことを誰より詳しく知っているのは彼自身。（神を偽装した）自分が自分に「無条件の愛」を向けるのは当然のこと。罰や罪の類いを一切、追求しないのも予想通り。

・彼の人生の危機の最中、彼の深層意識が神のイメージを身に纏って出現することで彼を破滅から救い出した…そうみるのが妥当。人生の緊急事態だもの、神のふりをして自分を騙すことは、まぁ、致し方ない。

・彼も精神分析の専門家なのだから、この神の正体に気づいても良さそうなものだが、それに気づくようだと神の偽装は失敗し、自身の救済も失敗する。ゆえに気づかない仕組み。

・同様の意味で、悟りも真理の体得などではない。悟りはギリギリの土壇場に追い詰められた人間の無意識が自己洗脳によって土壇場から安息の地へテレポートしようという必死の足掻きに喩えられる。必死の足掻きだから、論理も矛盾も全て無視し（*1）、カラの自明性だけで強引に自身を騙し通す。そうやってマンマと自身を完全に騙しおおせたものだけが大悟（*3）したと見なされる。


（*1）
・論理も矛盾も全て無視し…

・たぶん、意図的に無視しているのではない筈。この神を偽装し、自己洗脳を施す無意識の主体は右脳の機能だろう。右脳は言葉も論理も知らない。それゆえ、悟りの内容は、必然的に破綻し、矛盾だらけとなる。

・禅が 不立文字だの、言詮不及 だの、可及其智 不可及其愚 などと主張するのは、そもそも右脳が文字通り言葉や論理を知らないことが根本的な理由だろう。言語や論理を超越（*2）しているわけではない。

（*2）
・京都学派の連中が 「絶対無の「場所」」 だの 「絶対自己矛盾的自己同一」 といったタワゴトにかぶれたのも、右脳（空間認識が得意）に特有の論理を欠落させた認知方式を絶対化したためだろう。

・ただし、龍樹の『中論』だけは色合いが異なる。『中論』は左脳機能が乾いた言葉の手品を巧みに繰り広げているが、言語や論理を超越しているわけではない。その手品の手際が鮮やかなので、言語や論理を超越しているかのように錯覚させているだけ。

・右脳機能が関与していないから、『中論』は（禅のような）芸術味に乏しく、カラカラに干からびている。鰯の頭（禅）の方がまだ絵に描いた餅（『中論』）より滋味がある。

（*3）
・この不可逆性の大悟には、左脳の一部機能の永続的な抑止（or 遮断）が伴っているのではないか。左脳の一部機能の抑止によって、ニルバーナの実感が以後も永続し、死や人生の苦から脱却したと実感するのだろう。

・数週間だか数か月だかに渡って左脳が侵され、後に回復した女医（脳神経科の専門医）がその期間、ニルバーナに浸っていたという TED 講演での証言（過去記事で紹介したかも？）がこの仮説の補強材料になる筈。彼女は左脳機能が回復した途端に、ニルバーナが終了し、人生の苦しみも再開したと述べていた。

・ちなみに、彼女が自宅で最初に左脳機能の麻痺症状を自覚し、同僚の脳神経専門医に助けを求めて電話連絡した際の逸話が面白い。左脳機能が麻痺しているので電話をかけることも簡単ではない。ようやく電話がつながったが、今度は言葉で説明ができない。ウーとかオーとかいう声しか出せない。それを聞いた同僚は…（略）

09:55
yes george and this is so just so
09:58
paradoxical
09:59
i realized but oddly enough i was on
10:02
board with god
10:03
you know years before i kind of finally
10:06
came to the realization of about five
10:10
years ago that
10:11
to my astonishment there is an afterlife
10:14
i mean i guess i sort of
10:16
talks to god often in prayer and such
10:19
but i thought well you know in terms of
10:21
life after death i don't know what god
10:22
has in mind for us
10:24
you know is it conscious experience
10:27
after death and i just didn't know
10:29
but but i was um
10:32
really down i mean you know i guess
10:35
severe midlife crisis this was i think
10:38
in 91 in the summer and i had just sort
10:41
of given up on life i
10:43
i wanted to die but i didn't you know i
10:47
just figured suicide is not the route
10:50
but i was just
10:51
really desperate all right hold on hold
10:53
on right there
10:54
uh raymond we're at a break we're going
10:56
to come right back and we'll pick it up
10:58
right there
10:58
i want to hear about that incredible
11:00
story i never knew that you were at that
11:02
point that
11:03
you know you were kind of despondent and
11:06
we'll find out a little bit more about
11:07
that when we come back
11:10
and welcome back to coast to coast
11:11
george dory with you with dr raymond
11:13
moody his new book is called
11:15
god is bigger than the bible which we're
11:16
going to get into in a big way
11:18
but he was telling us a story and years
11:20
ago how he was a little despondent then
11:23
raymond i'll let you pick it up from
11:24
there what happened
11:26
yeah well basically i that was kind of
11:28
midlife i think i was
11:30
45 or so and uh had been through a
11:33
divorce
11:34
and was living in a new house and
11:37
i was just really really despondent
11:40
maybe you know when you're in a state
11:42
like that you're not exactly
11:43
sure what the whole picture of or is but
11:47
i was you know i was just so despondent
11:50
and hopeless and yet had learned from my
11:53
people with
11:54
near-death experiences who had attempted
11:56
suicide but that's not the way you know
12:00
that's not going to work so there i was
12:04
just not knowing what to do
12:06
and all of a sudden george i mean you
12:08
know people with these
12:10
mystical experiences and so on and
12:13
encounters with god they will
12:14
they'll tell you no matter how
12:15
articulate they are as you know they say
12:18
i just
12:19
can't describe it to you well that's the
12:21
wall i'm up against but
12:23
all of a sudden it was like something
12:25
from above
12:26
descended on me and um
12:30
you know the most compassion that you
12:34
cannot even begin to
12:37
describe even if and just
12:40
just beyond words of complete
12:44
compassion and understanding
12:48
nothing like the judgmental god that you
12:51
know some of the
12:52
fundamentalists all want to portray to
12:55
us but
12:56
just complete understanding and
13:00
and um you know i used to kind of
13:04
i heard when religious people would talk
13:06
about kneeling down to god i thought you
13:08
know what uh
13:10
you know how ridiculous i mean
13:13
it works it works yeah that's right
13:17
it would it you know that that it would
13:19
somehow flatter god or you know trying
13:21
to get on god's
13:23
good side by by kneeling to
13:26
flatter him or whatever but i realized
13:29
what that was all about
13:30
is you can't stand up i mean i was
13:33
sitting in a
13:34
chair and i just as soon as the presence
13:38
of god came over me i just
13:40
collapsed to the floor it's kind of like
13:42
george richie once told me he said it's
13:44
kind of like
13:45
he said like you're being fiercely
13:47
hypnotized
13:49
and so it was just and yet there was a
13:53
darkness to it i don't mean in the
13:55
negative sense but then the positive sin
13:58
was that even though it was a somebody
14:01
knew from everything about me every
14:04
detail
14:05
and yet still there's a mysteriousness
14:08
to it the impenetrability but
14:10
what you see makes you realize that you
14:13
it's a kind of experience where you
14:15
would
14:15
happily be in that state forever
14:18
absolutely and the presence of god
14:20
but the kind of idea came was i had had
14:23
this vision
14:24
of in virginia a um
14:29
a blonde mop of you know that i saw this
14:33
woman's blonde mop of hair from behind
14:35
and in a
14:37
blue silk dress of a you know a very
14:40
specific
14:41
blue color and i immediately was drawn
14:45
to this person
14:47
well the the sort of thought came that
14:49
everything was going to be all right
14:51
i mean you know there's always trouble
14:53
in life but that
14:55
and and i just
14:58
con this feeling of complete love and
15:02
compassion
15:03
and the idea also that you know this
15:06
life is full of
15:07
ups and downs and travails but
15:09
eventually everything does
15:11
come out all right so that sort of
15:14
shaped me up and i got back in shape
15:17
about a year and a couple of months
15:20
later
15:20
in september of 1992
15:25
i was in um florida in saint petersburg
15:29
and i was given a program down there
15:33
and you know as typical as you know when
15:36
you travel around you get
15:38
you go to tv studios to be interviewed
15:41
sure and so it never occurred to me i
15:43
got into the car that they had spent
15:45
when i
15:45
went into the studio i was sitting all
15:48
alone in the
15:49
green room and this
15:53
presence swept in i saw the big mop of
15:56
blonde hair with that very blue silk
15:58
dress
16:00
and she threw her arms out as though she
16:04
were declining to
16:05
her throng of thousands she said well
16:09
i've been divorced for two years i don't
16:10
know if anybody's gonna be sexually
16:12
interested in
16:14
me uh again and you know i mean
16:17
i immediately picked up the you raised
16:19
your hand right away right that's right
16:23
like i mean this was just a wacky sense
16:25
of humor i realized she was
16:27
just you know so immediately there was
16:30
just
16:31
this bond with cheryl whom you've met
16:34
and um that's amazing then about a year
16:36
later we got married
16:38
so that was you know that was my
16:40
experience with god
16:41
and you know and and subsequently have
16:44
felt the presence of god
16:46
um and on a number of times and
16:50
and uh god brought us two wonderful kids
16:53
who we adopted at birth
16:55
uh carter is mexican-american by birth
