Quantum philosophy of monistic idealism by Amit Goswami (+ book)
There is too much quantum supernaturalism around, too many experiments showing that the objective world is a world that moves forward in time like a clock, which says that action at a distance, especially instantaneous action at a distance, is impossible, which says that a thing cannot be in two or more places at the same time, represents an illusion of our thinking.

Tibetan Book of the Dead (Full text). “Great Liberation as a result of what was heard in the bardo”
The original title of the book: “Great Liberation as a result of what was heard in the bardo.” “As a result of what was heard” – because we are talking about the auditory perception of the text. “Bardo” is translated from Tibetan as “intermediate state.” The original talks about the “liberation” of a dying person, that is, about his reaching a state that excludes reincarnation. Northern Buddhism (Lamaism) teaches that this can be achieved in one life.
Analysis of Ancient Egyptian Myths
