Is self-replication the measure of life? / is there a sufficient level of intelligence for matter to become conscious? / is there an "emergent property" that creates consciousness? / is Brian Cox really "damn sure" that consciousness is physical (our could it be that it is just very subtle)? / "Because He is subtle, He is beyond the power of the material senses to see or to know." - Bhagavad-gita 13.16 / "the living entity, even though situated in varieties of bodies, is aloof from them due to his subtle nature… therefore it is impossible to see with the material eyes … no one in science can ascertain this." - Bhaktivedanta Swami / what is the compulsion of empiricists to deny the existence of the soul? / Prahlad converts his school / Prahlad triggers his father / just as different grades of fire all derive heat and light from the sun, we all drive our power from the same source
