I spoke to my Yogi, and he said:

I wish I had an answer to that because I'm tired of answering that question. The future ain't what it used to be. It's like deja-vu, all over again. You can observe a lot by just watching.

You've got to be very careful if you don't know where you are going, because you might not get there. When you arrive at a fork in the road, take it. We have deep depth. If the world was perfect, it wouldn't be. Even Napoleon had his Watergate.

If you ask me anything I don't know, I'm not going to answer. I never said most of the things I said. There are some people who, if they don't already know, you can't tell 'em. It ain't over till it's over.

And you can quote him on that -
Yogi Berra

until there are universal shoe sizes, the answer is definitely no

I'm pretty sure there is one. Ideas seem to flow in bundles. Also - from what we perceive of time, it is linear, but if Einstein was right about time, and if quantum physics is right about cycles of material/energy, I'd say there's a pretty good chance that we get our ideas at a higher level than just our what our senses pick up empirically.

And no.......that doesn't mean if you are copying other people's work that you can cop it off as just "tapping into the grid".

Consciousness exists when I am awake and ceases to exist when I am asleep.

Sure. Why not?

Actually, it has been proven that a group of people concentrating on the same thing
influences the outcome. The larger the group, the stronger the influence.

Maybe a bigger question is: Does a world conscience exist ?

There's lots of anecdotal and circumstantial evidence that points to a universal consciousness. Is that good enough for you?

Human Life is divided into two life cycles i-e consciousness and unconsciousness.It means 50% we live in conscious life (when we awake) and 50% of our lives depend on unconscious (when we sleep) both exist.(*)
