I find myself wondering why you hang around here, if you consider Ra's ideas to be, in so many words, bullshit. I see other posts from you lately pushing that same idea. Does it amuse you to attempt to poison the well, so to speak?
Also, it's interesting that you define meditation as being scientifically proven, when it's not. A few spikes on an EEG don't prove anything causally, and they also say nothing directly about the personal subjective experience of meditation which cannot be objectively documented. Nor do you substantiate in any particular way your belief that science somehow leads to emptiness. Scientific positivism, as you express, is not emptiness. The emptiness you seek is every bit as unproven/unprovable as you claim Ra's ideas to be.
By proclaiming science above Ra in this fashion, you're merely holding one belief system above another while using rhetoric to claim these are matters of fact. For that matter, it's also hard to reconcile your claim to have rejected the true/false dichotomy, given how willing you are to proclaim scripture to be useless as anything but toilet paper.
Personally, it seems like you're simply trolling so you can use conflict as a way of pretending your arguments are substantiated. Which is, of course, also in no way representative of either Oneness OR Emptiness.
