Panpsychism Quotes

“Thus, though there is normally no such thing as sin among the stars, no deliberate choice of the course known to be wrong for the sake of some end known to be irrelevant, there is ignorance, and consequent aberration from the pattern of the ideal as revealed to stars of somewhat maturer mentality.”
― Olaf Stapledon, Star Maker

“What is a word? It is a sound vibration! And what is the intelligence behind this vibration that "thinks" the Word? The answer is MIND (or what some call consciousness, intention or god). In short, there is a mind behind matter. Our holy and sacred minds are part of the Divine Consciousness.”

“In terms of mathematics, the entire universe is alive, but the power of its sensitivity is manifested in all its brilliance only among the higher animals. All atoms of matter feel in keeping with the environment. Finding itself in highly organized beings, atoms life their life and feel their pleasure and pain. If they find themselves in the inorganic world, they sleep, as it were, immersed in a deep state of unconsciousness, in nothingness.
Even in a single animal, as they wander around its body, the atoms live the life now of the brain, now of the bones, hair, nails, epithelium, and so on. Meaning that atoms now think, now live like atoms imprisoned in stone, water, or air. Now they sleep, with no awareness of time; now they live for the moment, like the lower beings; now they are aware of the past and paint a picture of the future. The more organized the being, the farther this notion of future and past extends.”
― Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, Panpsychism

“If you think about consciousness long enough, you either become a panpsychist or you go into administration.”
― John Perry

“English: "For the existence of time or illusion of its flow, there must exist something that is not in all possible states at the same time. In my opinion a free consciousness or protoconsciousness is that thing."

Česky: „Aby mohl existovat čas či iluze jeho plynutí, musí existovat něco, co není ve všech možných stavech najednou. Dle mého tím je svobodné vědomí nebo protovědomí.”
― Sebastián Wortys, Vtiposcifilo-z/s-ofie

“English: "Our actions are contemplation of the universe."

Česky: „Naše konání je přemýšlením vesmíru.”
― Sebastián Wortys, Vtiposcifilo-z/s-ofie

“To ‘speak’ within that universe it requires a circuit that is tuned to the laws of physics of that universe. In Steve’s world a wet piece of electrified meat that he calls a brain is needed to play the song he sings with his soul. The soul requires a substrate such as a human body to develop, but just as the works of Shakespeare can move from the mind of Shakespeare to the substrate of a play, a soul is not bound to a person`s brain.”
