Whereas Universal Consciousness is nothing more than the activity within the laws of physic innate to the Universe which are not at all fully understood. Tom Campbell goes into his beliefs after years of mathematics, testing and theory. Campbell is an elder, wise and amazing, but like the "Computer Simulated Universe Hypothesis"* his view of infinite consciousness is a curious supposition which in the end is a fun contemplation but not something in which I find some finite solution.
