In other words, the quotations in this list are not peculiar to "Superultramodern Science and Philosophy". Kedar Joshi Quotations http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/22 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/22 Tue, 23 Jun 2009 03:36:50 PDT Is Great Britain really great? If you think "it isn't", then this work is for you since it attempts to convince you that you're wrong. If you think "it is", then still this work could be for you since you may learn something glorious about this great land that you know not already.Contents -1. Some major reasons why Great Britain is truly great & glorious 2. A list of some of the well known British people and their achievements 3.Some Quotations about Great Britain 4.Some common misconceptions about Great Britain Kedar Joshi Great Britain http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/21 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/21 Thu, 26 Mar 2009 08:07:49 PDT This work lists some of the problems that I find supportive of metaphysical/philosophy of mind idealism. Kedar Joshi The NSTP (Non - Spatial Thinking Process) Theory http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/20 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/20 Mon, 23 Feb 2009 18:26:35 PST The material universe is a gigantic machine, a computer, whose hardware exists in the form of non-spatial feelings or states of consciousness. The workings of this non-spatial universal computer are described in my NSTP (Non - Spatial Thinking Process) theory. The NSTP theory is based on 7 self-evident propositions and 3 conjectures. It thus provides a concrete mathematical basis for metaphysical idealism and brings out a non-spatial computational description of the material universe. The NSTP theory self-evidently states matter as non-spatial and the new revolutionary (universal) mechanics as non-spatial (computational). It portrays non-spatial (computational universal) mechanics and further proposes the 21st century revolution in science and physics. Kedar Joshi The Non - Spatial Mechanics http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/19 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/19 Tue, 18 Nov 2008 03:13:06 PST In August 2008, I gave a couple of lectures in Pune on "A New (Superultramodern) Scientific Philosophy of Astrology", in "Marathi" language. These are the notes. Kedar Joshi Astrology http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/18 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/18 Tue, 18 Nov 2008 03:06:02 PST This work attempts to argue that astrology (Indian/Vedic astrology, in particular) is a science. The work is written in "Marathi" language. Kedar Joshi Astrology http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/17 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/17 Mon, 17 Nov 2008 01:08:40 PST This work is a list of my sayings/aphorisms/quotations which stands as a part of my works that are altogether called "Superultramodern Science and Philosophy". These quotations bring out the principles and theories of "Superultramodern Science and Philosophy" in an artistic/literary fashion. Many of the quotes could be a key to understanding "Superultramodern Science and Philosophy". A list of my generic quotations, which excludes the quotations listed here, can be found on this site under "Quotations - General". Kedar Joshi Quotations http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/16 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/16 Sat, 29 Mar 2008 18:12:25 PDT The metaphysical semi-solipsism is a position that within the semi-idealistic framework of the NSTP (Non - Spatial Thinking Process) theory, 'I' and 'the superhuman mind' are the only material entities that exist. That is, only my NSTP and the superhuman NSTP/s exist. It is called semi-solipsism because unlike pure/conventional solipsism it asserts the existence of mind, i.e. the superhuman mind, other than one's own. This position is based on the argument that 'the non-existence of other non-superhuman minds/NSTPs simply makes the universal design simpler, i.e. it makes the superhuman engine less complicated, since the engine needs no additional intelligence/information to create a variety of specific spatial illusions through multiple (non-superhuman) NSTPs'. Kedar Joshi The Metaphysical Semi-Solipsism: The NSTP Theoretical Solipsism http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/15 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/15 Sat, 29 Mar 2008 18:05:50 PDT The purpose of this work is to argue that 'God, the supreme being, is nothing but the ultimate questioner', the one "which" asks the (apparently unanswerable) ultimate question about the nature of its own existence, through the existence of life and, in general, the (semi-solipsistic) universe. The sole purpose of this ultimate questioner is the demonstration of its own existence and intelligence. The entire idea of this work is a part of the UQV (Ultimate Questioner's Vanity) theory. Kedar Joshi God as the Ultimate Questioner http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/14 http://works.bepress.com/kedar_joshi/14 Sat, 29 Mar 2008 18:02:43 PDT This work attempts to demonstrate the significant possibility (as contrast to the superhyperbolic or the least possibility) in an apparently inanimate thing, like a stone, being conscious. According to the semi-idealistic framework of the NSTP (Non - Spatial Thinking Process) theory, any spatial, and therefore illusive/virtual, entity may have (real non-spatial) feelings/states of consciousness associated with it, provided it has an appropriate conceptual representation in the superhuman engine. A stone, for example, being an apparently spatial entity, may have conceptual representation in the superhuman mind/NSTPs/engine so as to be conscious. Thus, it may be that a broken stone feels pain till its death and then its pieces become conscious. The kind/type of states of consciousness associated with a stone depends entirely upon the kind/type of conceptual representation it has in the superhuman engine. Kedar Joshi A Stone May Be Conscious
