What The Bleep Do We Know.
It's a limited release showing at select theaters.
Here is the home web page http://www.whatthebleep.com/ You will find show times and locations there as well as other information.
I saw the movie yesterday, and enjoyed it, though I felt it could have been even more radical and delved even deeper.
Perhaps others who get a chance to see it, will post here.

Loved it. Saw it several months back at the Bagdad in Portland. I'm not sure at all how "scientific" it is, but it sure gave me much to think about as far as intentions and energy.

Odrade,
I am certainly no scientist, yet many of the Quantum Physics books I have read, do indeed point to "scientific" experimentation that does seem to say: there is no out-there out there, and that Consciousness, is pretty much it. Other scientist may disagree (perhaps simply because they can not see it, as it does not fit into their paradigm of what reality is. Like the story of the native americans who could not see the first arriving pilgrim ships as they did not fit into what they believed reality to be.
This agrees with the great mystics of all times that basically say "there is only Consciousness". This Consciousness, would be what the word "God" points to. An infinite Reality available right here and now awaiting to be discovered within the core of our being -- if attention is shifted within, and looks deep enough.
Of course believing such things as this is meaningless, and at it worst can spawn yet another religion. There needs to be a clear seeing of Reality within ones deepest sense of being. A Reality no words can even begin to describe. A Reality more real than the one we believe to be true.
The beauty of this is that what we seek here is our true-being or actual identity. So it's not a matter of working towards something, or having to earn or win something. It's just about SEEING.
The movie touches on this. It is mentioned in a distant way. Yet, they do not seem to realize the awe and significance of what they are saying. But perhaps some of them do, and it just could not be expressed.

I must see this movie!!
Yeah the big thing seemed to be intention, which might be helpful as far as learned helplessness and the like, but it does kind of implicitly point to the question of what can direct that intention and affect your state of mind. Maybe it's just because my perspective now is different, but it seems more like mind candy, something to get excited about - which isn't saying it's bad or anything, but there's a feel that it takes you close but kind of stops short if you catch my drift. I suppose if nothing else it may help people psychologically to some extent though.
Oh JT, I wasn't criticizing... I loved the movie. It just seems that the intentions, perceptions and intuitions are exactly the things that so-called "real scientists" seem to be dismissive of, in that they are rarely documentable and quantifiable.
Of course, at this point in time, quantum physics are waaaay beyond my education level, so what do I know? LOL!

Just use those refrigerator magnets you always use with reminders under them you never look at you bastard! Gumby
JT, thanks for sharing that link. I have made plans with a girlfriend to see it when it comes to our area! I love your posts, as they tend to resonate with where my own spiritual understanding is at this point in my development. Recently, I've been reading a great book entitled "The Mayan Calendar" by Jose Arguelles..........talk about some fascinating concepts about time and perception............wow! And, of course, another book in line with that same theme is Barbara Hand Clow's "The Pleiadean Agenda" (sp?)...........some mind blowing stuff there...........

I have been watch for this movie but I live in the Florida Panhandle known as Lower Alabama. Maybe that's why it has not come to town. This is one of those communities that at first refused to show Fahrenheit 9/11. None of its many theaters would show it. I have checked the movies website for show locations and it is not skeduled to head my way. I guess I'm going to have to head out of town, I don't want to wait for the Video. Jst2laws
