Really cool article, thanks for posting it

Do we All, only share One Mind? Who's?

In my faith tradition, 'who' is an informal name of God. So the answer to 'Who's mind?' would be, yes.

I don't call it God in my tradition. Just All. But it can also be Gods. It just depends on how one focuses.

Edit: Glad you liked the article though.

No. If we did, we would all agree on that point.

No..... when humans join up in 'oceanic togetherness' ( !! ) then migrations come together and move forward, in unstoppable irresistible horrors.... think of Genhis Kham or Hitler or the Japanese of WWII..... or Cambodia after Vietnam.

I would absolutely love to read Darcia F. Narvaez (Ph D.) explaining how to boil a chicken egg.

Because the "I" creates difference.

Interesting article, particularly the last part:

The more holistic view of consciousness understands how each individual’s mind is actually part of a holistic consciousness (called "the implicate order" by Bohm). The “eureka” effect scientists report is prepared by extensive pondering and reflection, but the moment of insight "appears as if out of nowhere" (Briggs, 1990).


One-mind moments are characterized by “a hyperreal level of awareness, connection, intimacy, and communion with a greater whole, however conceived—the Absolute, God, Goddess, Allah, Universe, and so forth—all of which is marinated in an experience of intense love. There follows a profound shift in the existential premises on which one’s life is based” (p. 259). The individual is transformed, ceasing to be a separate ego, “but an opening or clearing through which the Absolute can manifest” (ibid).


Dossey asks, “Must we undergo some planetary version of a heart attack before we come to our senses?” (and return to a sense of one-mind or oceanic consciousness). Let’s hope not. Let’s hope that we don’t have to experience near-death to reinvigorate oceanic consciousness.

The article also mentions that foraging peoples are the more typical view, representing 95-99% of human existence. But is the author suggesting that we return to the days of primitive foraging in order to reinvigorate oceanic consciousness? Even if we have only one collective mind (which I'm not sure about), humans still have their own individual stomachs and digestive systems.
