Noetic Science

Membaca karya Dan Brown memang membuat kecanduan. Inilah bukti dari kecanduan itu. Selalu mencari apapun yang berkaitan dengan fakta yang ada dalam bukunya. Dan inilah hal yang paling membuat saya penasaran dan berkali-kali berkata "WOW! KEREN!" :p

Noetic Science
The word "noetic" comes from the ancient Greek nous, for which there is no exact equivalent in English. It refers to "inner knowing," a kind of intuitive consciousness—direct and immediate access to knowledge beyond what is available to our normal senses and the power of reason.

As defined by the philosopher William James in 1902, noetic refers to “states of insight into depths of truth unplumbed by the discursive intellect. They are illuminations, revelations, full of significance and importance, all inarticulate though they remain; and as a rule they carry with them a curious sense of authority…

Noetic sciences are explorations into the nature and potentials of consciousness using multiple ways of knowing—including intuition, feeling, reason, and the senses. Noetic sciences explore the "inner cosmos" of the mind (consciousness, soul, spirit) and how it relates to the "outer cosmos" of the physical world.

wowwww....
para pecinta konspirasi dan para psikolog2 harus mulai memperhatikan noetic science..
psikologi transpersonal seharusnya juga sudah mulai mengadaptasi ilmu ini kedalamnya.
neotic science ini sederhananya merupakan ilmu yang menjembatani psikologi empiristik dengan alam yang memang tidak bisa diukur secara statistik matematis.

Noetic Sciences is the umbrella term for a wide range of investigative studies on the affect of the human mind on the world around us. Scientifically our minds change the world on a quantum level. Religiously we affect the health and wellbeing of those around us through prayer.

jadi, mungkin inilah ilmu psikologi (noetic) yang sesungguhnya membahas tentang jiwa yang tak bisa di empiriskan secara statistika.

well, entahlah,, masih harus dipelajari dan masih harus mencari banyak sumber. sayangnya belum ada buku tentang ilmu noetic yang berbahasa indonesia, jadi saya masih harus melalap santapan berbahasa inggris tiap hari.. hehe.. :p

bagi yang punya info banyak mengenai ini, sharing yaa...!!
