While it may be true that the experience of universal consciousness, emptiness, or oneness may be indescribable, the holistic science may provide a verifiable and objective description that can be validated against the observations of the universe. The merit of such description is that it is as free as possible from the purely subjective pronouncements of the self-acclaimed experiencer or observer.
The variety of definitions and understandings of consciousness or mind phenomena are artifacts of an incomplete understanding of the wholesome reality of the mass/energy/space/time continuum universe. The universal consciousness is not the biological consciousness that is the seat of the ego or mind. The universal consciousness is the blue skies, while the biological consciousness or mind are the clouds of thoughts and emotions generated by neurons firings in the brain. The universal consciousness is beyond mind but mind is not beyond consciousness. The universal consciousness is pure existence; unconsciousness or lower levels of consciousness exist within it. Mind is a fragmented or walled or bounded consciousness.
Attention is not awareness but thought. Meditation does not have a focal point of attention but dissolution of it. A focal point of attention is limited in space-time. Universal consciousness gets veiled by attention or thought like clouds in the sky.
Emptiness is not empty-ness but fullness. It is not nothingness but everythingness.
We are habitually, genetically, culturally, religiously, and socially programmed to define, analyze, and understand any phenomena or events. All these extraneous and acquired straights color our perceptions and lead to confusions, uncertainties, and inaccuracies resulting in understanding and describing the ONE universal reality. This also misleads many to believe that there is no standalone universal reality or purpose to the universe and each one of us to make our own - another trick of the ego to maintain ownership of reality and purpose.
It is also important to note that even if a perfect description of the ultimate reality were possible, the listener or the receiver of the description may induce its own bias to the interpretation of the description. The ability of the listener to listen perfectly is as important as the ability of the describer to communicate the ultimate reality. Even a perfect master who may be able to convey or describe the reality as is could never penetrate an imperfect listener. The art of listening and observing is as important as the art of describing. And, that is where the strength of scientific communication comes in. The medium of (holistic) scientific communication minimizes, to the extent possible, the uncertainties and errors in communication.
From a holistic scientific perspective, universal consciousness, eternity, emptiness, oneness, enlightenment, godliness, awareness, and Samadhi could all be mathematically described as one simple massless state of the Zero-point energy wherein space and time are fully dilated. However, different non-scientific or metaphoric descriptions would describe these otherwise unitary phenomena in many different words, poems, or languages that would have different meanings for different listeners leading to the apparent confusions and multiplicity of interpretations. Holistic science (HR) describing the one underlying essence of all, one universal path -dissolution of the ego, and one destination or purpose - Eternity. HR thus ends the multiplicities of paths, commandments, morals, beliefs, and convictions that are artifacts of the multiple local minds or egos.
Non-local mind is as much of an oxymoron as non-local matter or mass (ego). Such definition is in direct violation of the universal laws and the observed universe behavior. Mind (ego) must dissolve just like matter to achieve non-locality of the universal consciousness.
Universal consciousness is pure motion, while stillness (motionlessness) is unconsciousness or death. The experience of eternal peace, harmony, certainty, and order during the state of Samadhi (deep meditation) is not stillness (V=0) but pure motion or kinetic energy (V=C, speed of light) wherein clock stops and distances dilate to zero. This gives the feeling or experience (awareness) of being everywhere (omnipresence) and at the same time (clock stops). On the other hand, the pure stillness (stopping of motion, V=0) occurs inside a black hole wherein even a photon that normally moves at the speed of light is not allowed to escape. The universal consciousness is an infinite ocean of kinetic energy that imparts motion or life into everything and being.
And YES, there is a pill for achieving this kinetic energy of the extreme kind. Moreover, it is free and every human being has it. The pill is the ego; just swallow it and dissolve it. The pill, when dissolved, releases all the kinetic energy that was earlier bound within its shell and that one needs to realize the state of universal consciousness, eternity, emptiness, oneness, enlightenment, godliness, awareness, and Samadhi described scientifically as one simple state of the Zero-point energy.
However, a note of caution about science is warranted. As Einstein said, quantum mechanics is not a complete or holistic science. Also, Richard Feynman said that no one understands it. Hence, QM descriptions of the universal reality are incomplete, fragmented, and misleading marred with multiple unresolved paradoxes- multiple universes, multiple dimensions, anti-matter, quantum gravity etc. QM is great for electronic gadgets and materialistic high-tech applications of science. But I would not waste any time using quantum concepts such as anti-matter, exotic particles, strings, time travel, time-warps, quantum non-locality, quantum mind/observer, and quantum soul etc to explain, describe, or understand universal reality or consciousness.
