Here’s where the link took me:

I posted three links pertaining to Carmelite nuns. One was in the initial reply:

Mario Beauregard, Vincent Paquette.Neural correlates of a mystical experience in Carmelite nuns (original paper — looks the same for me as your screenshot)

Two in the next reply (I marked them as source):

https://books.google.com/books?id=DP7jpzngHJ0C&pg=PA228&lpg=PA230&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false (source of description of those 3 states that were measured — Google books, so Google may hide that page, they are random AF)

https://hbu.edu/news-and-events/2017/02/14/science-not-understand-consciousness-god-not-reasons-might-think/ (source of the huge copy/paste block in quotation marks right underneath— the article from Houston Baptist Uni I mentioned)

Laura Knight-Jadczyk’s channeling

No comment O_o

OK, God is physical, but in a way that we can’t recognize as physical the way we are now, or using the scientific equipment we have at our disposal.

Well, I can recognize God as physical. Maybe I’m some anomaly, but I don’t think so. I’m pretty average human being.

God is the conscious universal mind that exists in that dimension of physical reality we can’t see, hear, touch, smell, taste, or measure with any current scientific instruments that extend those senses.

If this was true, you could not have what you call “experiences of God” to begin with. Then again, maybe you have some special “spiritual antennae”. But if that’s the case, it’s you who should explain it to us who lack in this department, and devise valid experiments and tools if you wish science in general to deal with it. On the other hand, one, obviously, does not need such apparatus (see above), because God exists as all realms, and genuine humans with five senses and mind have the privilege to be the bridge from raw material world, through all phenomena, all the way to the very essence of what we call God.

And just a small afterthought in the Christian vein (John 8:40): As it is, you are looking for a way to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God.
