- So if you really believe in that
ego thing of one eternal soul,
- Mm-hmm.
:23:07
then you only have a 50% chance
of your soul being over 40.
:23:11
And for it to be over 1 50 years old,
then it's only one out of six.
:23:16
So what are you saying then?
Reincarnation doesn't exist...
:23:19
or that we're all young souls like where
half of us are first-round humans?
:23:25
No, no. What I'm trying to say
is that somehow I believe...
:23:29
reincarnation is just a--
:23:31
a poetic expression of what
collective memory really is.
:23:36
There was this article by this
biochemist that I read not long ago,
:23:39
and he was talking about how when
a member of a species is born,
:23:44
it has a billion years
of memory to draw on.
:23:48
And this is where
we inherit our instincts.
:23:51
I like that.
It's like there's, um,
:23:54
this whole telepathic thing going on
that were all a part of,
:23:58
whether were
conscious of it or not.
:24:00
That would explain why
there's all these, you know,
:24:03
seemingly spontaneous, worldwide,
innovative leaps in science,
in the arts.
:24:08
You know, like the same results poppin'
up everywhere independent of each other.
:24:14
Some guy on a computer,
he figures something out,
:24:16
and then almost simultaneously, a bunch
of other people all over the world...
:24:20
- figure out the same thing.
- Mm-hmm.
:24:22
They did this study. They isolated
a group of people over time,
:24:26
and they monitored their abilities
at crossword puzzles...
:24:31
in relation to
the general population.
:24:33
And then they secretly gave them
a day-old crossword,
:24:37
one that had already been answered
by thousands of other people.
:24:39
Their scores went up dramatically,
like 20 percent.
:24:43
So it's like once the answers
are out there,
:24:45
you know, people can
pick up on 'em.
:24:48
It's like we're all telepathically
sharing our experiences.
