Any Studies on how schizophrenia is encephalitis? Niacin treatements?

Love Iain's voice

So, given the dynamic, non-linear nature of reality in which individuals and contexts change each other by interacting, I would say that putting into practice (act) processes, is in itself a complex and potentially complicated matter.

Worth the value of time/energy 🧠

Wow! Thank you for this brilliant thought provoking, informative and beautiful dialogue!

Totally agree re: the dark side of mindfulness! Some of my mindfulness friends can be so mindless :p. Discussion is pretty technical until 44 min, when it becomes more practical. Not to say technical is a bad thing, but for other viewers like me who arent mental health professionals, thats where it picks up and its obvious Dr. Chan took note and began with questions others would be more interested in hearing about.

Discussion aside (I look forward to it), love your book by the way. Just wanted to let you I appreciate the hard work you put in and the diverse connections that you have presented.

... when you dont know an answer is best to say I dont know.... I DONT THINK THERE IS A PLACE IN THE BRAIN CALLED UNCONSCIOUS....WELL there is no a place in the brain called conscious...

Another brilliant discussion! And Pat, Jaak and Lisa Feldmann Barrett have had several back and forth paper discussions regarding their views of emotions and the brain, all very interesting to read.

_The face of the mainland has become a landscape of coerced Chicago-ifications as humanity has fallen into an orgy of destruction without precedence. So-called civilization wears the face of an unleashed murderer, while the fullness, the bounty of the earth has withered from his poisonous breath._ Ludwig Klages, early 1900s.

Thank you - please spread your wisdom in this world!!! You guys are giving HOPE for UNDERSTANDING - WISDOM - LOVE - BEAUTY!!!!

Wonderful all round interview. Excited to discover your channel. Thank you

I'm in two minds about all this.

I'm left-handed. I hope I have a higher state of intelligence.😅

Aldrich Chan, your book Reassembling Models of Reality introduced me to Hoffmans work, alongside many others. Real awesome to see you engaging with people who influenced your work! This is a great discussion.

At 20:20 Separation from nature, real interesting never thought of it like that! On 1:03:10 asymmetry, nothingness and truth were my favorite parts. Dr. Chan, really looking forward to your next book on Daoism and Science. It'll complement your book Reassembling Models of Reality and Mcgilchrists the Matter with Things real nicely! Great rapid fires at the end!

This is a next level discussion with Hoffman. Awesome, keep it up!

Illuminating discussion! Thank you so much for starting this channel. These dialogues shed so much light to living.

This is one of the best discussions with Iain Mcgilchrist! So lucky to be able to see two scholars discuss such important topics in our day and age. I can't believe this is free, how fortunate we all are!!

(THI$ I$ HOW I DISCOVE#R THAT THE MI#ND IS NOT IN THE BR@IN: My Name: Luis ((2.- At no point during the day did I feel the urgency to do something to feel better again, but I didn't know what it was. I started searching on the internet and asking many people, but no one knew anything. They didn't even know what I was going through. Some even recommended that I see a psychologist or a doctor, as they usually prescribe antidepressants for people with these symptoms or going through similar situations. However, that doesn't really help. It provides temporary relief, but the problems come back again. I continued like this for another two months, and when I thought I couldn't bear the situation anymore, although I never thought of suicide, each day became heavier for me to go to work. I felt like a slave, just trading my life for a little bit of money. Then, one Friday when I returned home, there was nobody there. It was completely silent, which was unusual. Normally, when I entered my room, I thought to myself, "Well, I'll rest for just 5 minutes and then take a shower before going to bed, continuing with the same routine tomorrow." But something beautiful and incredible happened, something I never expected. Twelve years ago, before having this experience, I had heard the word "spirituality" a couple of times, and I used to think it was cheap philosophy or something for the less fortunate. Being a very materialistic person, I knew absolutely nothing about spirituality or anything related to it. Out of nowhere, I remember lying down, closing my eyes, and within a couple of seconds, I started feeling five completely different sensations that I had never felt before. I can say these sensations were both emotional and physical because they were very intense. These five sensations occurred in a split second, one after the other. When I closed my eyes and opened them again, to my surprise, I was 30 cm away from the ceiling lamp in my room. Everything was exactly the same. Nothing had happened. I was simply 30 cm away from the lamp in my room when I closed my eyes. I had been lying down on the bed, and when I woke up, I was almost touching the lamp. Curious, I decided to place one of my hands in front of me to see if something was happening. I could see that my hand had the same shape, with five fingers, just like my physical hand. But it wasn't made of flesh or physical matter. It had the same form as my hand, but it wasn't physical. It wasn't made of physical matter. I can only describe it as if it were.. ))

.. (THI$ I$ HOW I DISCOVE#R THAT THE MI#ND IS NOT IN THE BR@IN: My Name: Luis ((3. - It was made of white light and then the contours were seen exactly, that is, it was the same hand but made of white light, yes, I can say that. At that moment, due to the impression, I didn't know what to think. But then I placed my other hand in front of me, and it was exactly the same. So, what is it that it doesn't have? That's when I noticed that I was floating. I couldn't feel the weight of my body, I didn't feel completely light without any kind of weight. I didn't feel the weight of the clothes against my body. And when I saw that I was made of that type of white light, it surprised me even more. I turned around, as if I were in water, where you don't feel the weight. So, I turned around and was surprised to see my physical body, lying on the bed, exactly the same. I realized that although I was outside my physical body, I still had all my memories, my personality, everything, just like a human being. My mind was with me, not in the body. That's when I realized that the mind is not in the brain, the brain doesn't create it. It is outside of that. You could say it's part of what I now know as the soul. The soul can be said to be the true body of us. There are two bodies, each of us who believe we are human beings, are actually two beings. First, we are a spiritual being, that's what we really are, it's our nature. What is it? Well, we are made of a mind, a spirit, and a soul. The soul can be said to be the true spiritual body of us as spiritual beings. The mind could be said to be equivalent to the brain, but that's the mind, it's the brain of the soul, or rather, it's our brain as spiritual beings. And what is the spirit? The spirit could be said to be, so to speak, the genetics of where we come from, it's our genetic heritage. But in our spiritual being, just like in our physical body, we have a brain, we have our body, and we also have a genetics that comes from our father. These three things are equivalent. But in our true spiritual nature as beings of light, well, at that moment when I realized these things, being outside my body and seeing myself lying there in bed, I started to move and I could see and feel that I was floating. I was fully conscious, I never felt sleepy or anything like that. I was always 100% conscious because I had arrived early at home that day and I wasn't sleepy, to be honest. So, what happened after that? From that day on, I was filled with immense curiosity and a genuine desire to know what had happened to me and to learn everything about this new reality that I had consciously discovered through this experience. Now I know what it is. It's called astral projection or astral travel, which is simply the separation, the separation when the soul consciously leaves the physical body, but it is temporary. One can go out for a while to explore another dimension, what is called the astral world or the astral plane, and then one has to return.",))

Antoine Béchamp French biologist 1800s knew about this conscious agents and he called them microzyma

1:27:06 perfect point that’s it right there that’s that’s what we’re trying to address. We’re trying to get over that’s the goal of our success is to address this fear in a lot of places and that’s where there’s a real need for each and every individual and there and their success to having an opinion or or share their opinion on these things and how we can better accomplish our overall goal which is is peace. This conversation plays a huge part and what we need to do collectively or we need to understand about our total society and what has the history of the fallen man or history of the failed failing man done or has created and in reference to it, fear state and more so their ability to change

Can you help me with these subjects, please.

12:03 I strongly discourage self-medication or attempting to treat PTS without professional guidance. The potential consequences, including the risk of death or severe harm, far outweigh the likelihood of success. The probability of overcoming negative outcomes without professional intervention is less than 1%, emphasizing the critical need for immediate professional assistance. I urge individuals facing PTS to seek help promptly, and I implore families and friends to support and ensure that these efforts are pursued until positive outcomes are achieved, a result we anticipate post-completion of these necessary interventions. While my life is far from perfect, marked by undisclosed struggles, I acknowledge my fortune in having opportunities and surviving thus far. This survival is not a testament to personal greatness but a testament to the patience and dedication of those involved in this program, striving to save lives, even that of someone seemingly insignificant like myself. Fostering positive thoughts through mind mapping is a concept explored in this paper, aiming to address and alleviate the challenges associated with PTSD. The invisible struggles faced by individuals dealing with PTSD often lead to misjudgments, with others quick to label them negatively. Despite advancements in medical understanding, treating PTSD remains elusive due to its complex nature. While medical professionals rely on established knowledge for treatment, PTSD poses a unique challenge as it transcends conventional understanding. The body, a sophisticated machine, intertwines with the mind through intricate neural pathways shaped by electrical impulses of thought. These pathways not only encode memories but also influence emotions, creating a complex network of thoughts. The paper highlights the difficulty in treating PTSD, emphasizing the inadequacy of relying solely on established scientific norms. It challenges the conventional approach, suggesting a need for a deeper understanding and a departure from purely logical decisions. The intricate connection between the mind and body demands a nuanced perspective, recognizing the role of thoughts and emotions in shaping one's experiences. Chapter 1 Brain things for Marines. To comprehend the concepts presented here, let's delve into three crucial aspects of the brain that will become integral in subsequent chapters: brain wrinkles and folds, brain structure, and neural pathways. While the brain holds more intricate and medically significant information, we defer those details to the attending group. Our focus excludes recommendations for prescription drugs, surgical techniques, emergency response procedures, or medical care services. This paper aims to enhance understanding of these aspects and their synergy for effective treatment, a task entrusted to the Neuroscience Education Institute for comprehensive medical literature after the commencement of clinical trials. Explaining Brain wrinkles and folds matterResearchers are studying the mechanics of how they form. We invited Mir Jalil Razavi and Weiying Dai to explain the concept. The human brain has been called the most complex object in the known universe. And with good reason: It has around 86 billion neurons and several hundred thousand miles of axon fibers connecting them. Unsurprisingly, the process of brain folding that results in the brain’s characteristic bumps and grooves is also highly complex. Despite decades of speculation and research, the underlying mechanism behind this process remains poorly understood. As biomechanics and computer science researchers, we have spent several years studying the mechanics of brain folding and ways to visualize and map the brain, respectively. Figuring out this complexity may help researchers better diagnose and treat developmental brain disorders such as lissencephaly, or smooth brain, and epilepsy. Because many neurological disorders emerge at the early stages of development, understanding how brain folding works can provide useful insights into normal and pathological brain function. The mechanics of brain folding The brain is made of two layers. The outer layer, called the cerebral cortex, is composed of folded gray matter made up of small blood vessels and the spherical cell bodies of billions of neurons. The inner layer is composed of white matter, consisting mostly of the neurons’ elongated tails, called myelinated axons.

11:50 Dedication I extend my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. Debbi A. Morisset, PhD, for her unwavering support and patience throughout our time together. Your dedication merits the utmost recognition, and I anticipate witnessing the University of California, Irvine, acknowledging and honoring your exceptional contributions to the field. You stand as an inspiration and a shining example of what can be achieved through hard work and determination. My sincere thanks to the doctors, medical writers, and staff at The Neuroscience Education Institute for graciously inviting me to participate in multiple CME conferences. Their progressive approach to continuing medical education has been instrumental. I want to emphasize that without their involvement in this project, my presence here today would be uncertain. From the depths of my heart, I express my profound gratitude. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Subject: Recommendation Regarding Financial Control Team, I recommend giving her control of all the finances we have. Attempting to gain control through deception is neither necessary nor likely to succeed. It's time to take a direct approach to success in this matter. The plan can proceed with the same financial goals, minus the destructive elements born out of desperation. While our initial intent was honorable and driven by a heartfelt desire to rectify losses, the reality is that this approach is highly risky. It introduces an alternate reality, exacerbating the subject's symptoms and leading to an unexpected state of desperation. This desperation is proving destructive to our lives and is forming pathways contrary to our intended achievements. Let's prioritize a straightforward approach to success without unnecessary complications. Best, Subject zero Mind mapping Yay M……everybody! Yay team!!!! The creation of deep-channel neural pathways is highly intricate. Simplifying, we view it as a combination of time and reward. The brain rewards positive actions with the release of endorphins, forming deep pathways where messages or thoughts continually traverse, creating memory wrinkles. This reasoning, termed mind mapping, led us on a journey to strengthen these pathways, understanding the risks involved without professional guidance. As of May 29, 2023, we've completed a process to manage posttraumatic stress, aiming to reform government peacefully. Observations of being considered manic or delusional should be acknowledged, given the history and potential negative effects. However, since the beginning, we've sought professional assistance to minimize adverse effects. Our broadcast aims to offer medical professionals and researchers a clear perspective for refining and safely implementing this approach as a treatment for PTS. I challenge accusations that deem these actions fraudulent, emphasizing their sound reasoning and success, often overlooked by professionals focused on safety. Acknowledging my faults, my intent is to demonstrate personal growth, respecting those who assisted me. While better considerations before decisions would have been ideal, the goal now is to showcase who I am and not be defined solely by past actions

9:25 Background: - zHistorically, the years 1974 to 1994 were associated with the decline of Post-WWII consensus and the rise of neoliberal commercialism. This was a period shaped by Cold War tensions, the Reagan Revolution, and the emergence of the global market economy. In the US, belief in traditional values and societal norms was replaced by an uptick in individualistic values and consumption, giving rise to a pop culture-saturated consumerism. In Western Europe and other parts of the world, Reaganomics and neoliberal policies led to increased privatization, weakened labor unions, and burgeoning inequality. -The emergence of a controlled narrative during this time period had a significant impact on individual perspectives. This narrative was heavily influenced by ideological forces, such as Cold War paranoia, the Reagan Revolution, and an emphasis on consumerism and individualism. The media, including television and film, reinforced this narrative and played a significant role in how individuals formed their beliefs and values. The narrative could be both empowering and limiting, depending on the perspectives it was presented from and the ways in which it interacted with other competing narratives. Television Programming Influence: -Television programming played an important role in shaping the mindset of Generation X and Millennials. It provided a form of escapism, a lens through which to view the world, and a source of entertainment and education. Television programming was also influential in the development of beliefs and values, as programming often reinforced the dominant cultural narrative of the time. The trained belief; as one of the subjects who participated in this program I will give my account. The house hold that I was raised in had an about three to four years success history sandwiched between struggle and inequality which has plagued humanity in every generation. The narrative which we were raised to believe can be quantified in following statements 1. Anything is possibly and can be achieved if you just believe in that with all your heart it will come to pass. 2. Good always triumphs over evil - implying that wrong doing could not go on forever; for it will eventually run into those righteous people who will put a stop to it. 3. To listen, learn and remain humble for all that you are going through is a part of the process or plan. Impatience will hinder progress 4. Love is the most powerful bond you can make and as such can be used to transform life and all that you see. 5. Never be afraid to do the write thing stand up for the truth and what you believe 6. Together nothing is impossible different then the first it it is colective strength not strength of mind or will Television shows such as Friends and Seinfeld popularised a style of storytelling that was far removed from the socially conscious programming of the 1980s and instead focused more on individualistic storylines. This programming often shaped how Generation X and Millennials saw themselves in relation to the world. -Narrative control through television built deep neural pathways as the content was often designed to be entertaining, memorable, and emotionally resonant. Consequently, viewers internalised the storylines and characters and linked them to their own lived experiences. This led to cognitive changes, such as a deeper acceptance of the values and beliefs presented in the programming, and created a cultural environment where stories from a single perspective were privileged. This further impacted the ways Generation X and Millennials experienced the world and formed their worldviews. Case Studies: -Specific examples of influential TV programs during the stated period include Family Ties, The Cosby Show, Cheers, The Golden Girls, Full House, Roseanne, and The Simpsons. These programs encapsulated the traditional values, the pull of consumerism, and the rise of individualism that characterized this period in history. Additionally, these programs glorified the affluent lifestyles of middle class white Americans and perpetuated the idealization of nuclear family structures. -These programs contributed to the formation of beliefs, values, and individual needs in a variety of ways. First, they presented a controlled narrative that often reinforced traditional values and ideals while simultaneously celebrating the rise of individualism. Second, they provided viewers with role models and characters to identify with, providing individuals with a way to connect to the stories. Finally, they reinforced the idea of consumerism by idealizing luxurious lifestyles and creating a demand for the products and services that were embedded in the stories. Neural Pathway Formation: -Deep neural pathways are created when individuals are repeatedly exposed to a specific narrative or set of beliefs. This repetitive exposure creates the infrastructure for these beliefs to become ingrained in the psyche and influence subsequent thought patterns and beliefs. This process can be seen in the television programs of the period, which provided a controlled narrative and reinforced the values and beliefs of the era. As viewers watched these programs, long-term connections were created, shaping their beliefs, values, and individual needs. -The long-lasting effects on the cognitive processes of Generation X and Millennials can be seen in the continued acceptance of the traditional values and ideals presented in the television programming of the era. Additionally, these programs have had a lasting influence on how individuals make sense of the world and form their beliefs and values. Finally, the messaging embedded in these programs can still be seen in the way consumerism is embraced and how the traditional family structure is seen as the ideal. Impact on Contemporary Generations: -The deep neural pathways established during the specified period continue to influence the thoughts and behaviors of Generation X and Millennials today. These pathways have created a cognitive environment where traditional values are accepted, consumerism is embraced, and the nuclear family structure is seen as the ideal. Additionally, this controlled narrative has impacted the ways individuals perceive their world and form their beliefs and values. As such, it is important to analyze the legacy of narrative control on Generation X and Millennials and identify the ways in which it continues to shape our present day. - The implications of the controlled narrative from the specified period for contemporary societal structures and individual decision-making are far-reaching. This narrative has informed how individuals form their beliefs and values, as well as their approach to life. It has also contributed to the perpetuation of certain societal structures and dynamics, and has been used to further marginalize certain groups. In this way, understanding the legacy of this narrative and its impact is key to reorienting our present day and creating a more equitable and just society. Methodology: -The research methods used for the Generation X Project included data collection from television programming, analysis of said programming, and psychological assessments of viewers. Data was collected from a variety of sources, including historical archives, popular films, and television programs of the era. This was analyzed using critical, psychoanalytic, ethnographic, and cultural studies approaches. Additionally, psychological assessments were conducted with viewers to assess their experiences with the programming and how it impacted their beliefs and values. This allowed the research team to gain a more nuanced understanding of the role that the controlled narrative played during this period Findings: -Some of the key findings related to the influence of television programming on Generation X and Millennials included the following: 1) viewers often internalised the values and beliefs presented in the programming and linked them to their own lived experiences; 2) these programs provided a form of escapism and a lens through which to view the world; 3) the narrative presented in these programs often reinforced existing ideologies and social structures; and 4) viewers were influenced in the formation of their beliefs and values by the characters and storylines presented. -Research identified a number of neural pathways developed during this period, all of which continue to influence contemporary societal trends. These include a focus on individualism over collective action, a reliance on consumerism to fulfill material needs, acceptance of traditional values, and inequality of access. These pathways are a reflection of the values and beliefs reinforced in the television programming of this era and have had a lasting impact on the behaviour and beliefs of Generation X and Millennials. Conclusion: -Summarize the research, emphasizing the significance of understanding the long-term effects of controlled narratives on generational development. - Conclude with potential implications for future societal narratives and individual autonomy. Recommendations: - Offer recommendations for further research and exploration in understanding and mitigating the impact of controlled narratives on future generations. Q&A Session: - Open the floor for questions, encouraging discussion and engagement with the audience. This framework provides a structured approach to presenting your research on the Generation X Project, focusing on the effects of a controlled narrative and the influence of television programming on neural pathways, leading to lasting impacts on Generation XY and Millennials. Adjust the content as needed to fit your specific findings and insights.

5:28 Title: Unveiling Societal Shifts: The Generation X Project (1974-1994) Lori how are you I was wondering if you had a moment to answer a few questions regarding an investigation I am conducting I call the Generation X project. My investigation of This project is one of personal interest having gone through it myself and was meant to see if I could identify any common Phycological traits these to generation who were there subjects of the programming. The hope is to identify these traits and gain a better understanding of the what these traits do when they create Phycological boundaries and what their positive effects would be if we do what’s necessary to break threw. was the opposite of propaganda in that it was a positive messenger but it did resemble propaganda in the senses that it was an unrealistic idea that didn’t exist or does not exsit in the world today. programming from 1974 to 1994 on tv in Amarica. Introduction: - The Generation X Project is a research project focused on understanding the controlled narrative from the years 1974 to 1994. The project looks at the larger cultural forces and institutions that shaped the period, from the Cold War to the rise of neoliberalism. It also explores the impact of major pop culture influences, and how minority and marginalised voices were affected by the dominant ideologies of this period. Ultimately, the project seeks to analyze the power dynamics that shaped the narrative and articulate its legacies for our present day. - The societal rebellion during this period was rooted in a rejection of traditional values and a new embrace of individualism, self-expression, and autonomy. This manifested in a variety of ways, such as the punk and new wave musical movement, the rise of underground zines, and the proliferation of new and alternative lifestyles. The rise of mass consumerism, along with the popularisation of computers and the internet, further contributed to a culture of individual expression. excessive use of profanity was also a part of the societal rebellion during this period, as more people grew comfortable expressing themselves without the constraints of traditional societal expectations and mores. Objective: -The research objective of the Generation X Project is to explore the lasting effects of a controlled narrative on Generation X and Millennials. Specifically, it will identify the legacy of this narrative, its implications for our current socio-political state, and ways that minorities and marginalised voices have been affected. -Television programming was a key influencer during the specified period as it was a primary way in which people received news, entertainment, and culture. Television provided a lens through which people could interpret their world and it often presented a limited range of perspectives that reinforced the larger societal narrative. It was a powerful medium for both positive and negative social messaging and influenced the way people formed their own beliefs and values.

At 34:29 If a man thinks he's hearing a voice coming from a socket, he's schizophrenic; if a man thinks he hears the God McGilchrist believes in he's embodied, sane and has achieved a balance between RH and LH in a manner that leads to a meaningful life. Very interesting.

The Origin of Consciousness: philpapers.org/archive/WILTOO-34.pdf The essay, titled "The Origin of Consciousness," explores how the creation and evolution of life and consciousness is a direct consequence of the evolution of the universe's rudimentary biologically-patterned processes proposed in The Biological Framework for a Mathematical Universe. The essay guides the reader through the creation and development of consciousness and its embodiment in living organisms, exploring how the rudimentary biological patterns of the environment have led to the emergence of “pattern recognition engines.” These organisms, under specific environmental conditions, transition from solely focusing on immediate survival to being liberated to explore and imagine patterns in their surroundings. Their unknowing purpose is to explore the patterns within their environment and within themselves to such extent that they discover the biological correspondence between their physiology and all of creation so that they organize themselves and their society to biology's patterns.

Fantastic! 🙏

Reality varies from universe to universe. It's just so called reality. Consciousness is the only reality.

5:47, 6:01 children are natural philosophers

all answers are in Buddhism books. No need to walk in the dark and explore 😂

We often hear of the hard problem of consciousness. Why is there qualia or experience of anything in the first place? I would submit there is an even harder and more important question - why do I seem to be a specific individual experiencing a specific subset of qualia? This is the most important question that must be asked and answered but rarely is. As a matter of fact there seems to be a huge blind spot when it comes to this in discussions of consciousness. If material reductionism is to be relevant to the big questions, then it has to explain not how brains generate consciousness but how the specific brain in my head could create the specific consciousness I seem to be looking out of the eyeballs of this specific body. Why do I PERSONNALLY EXIST as an individual in the first place? Out of the infinite matter in the universe how is it that only the three pounds in my head could create me? What is different about that three pounds for this to occur? Consider that billions of bodies showed up before this one. Billions showed up after this one. None of them seem to have created my existence. This body could be running around without it being ME just like these billions of others All bodies are made of the same elements. All brains have the same basic anatomy. If all brains are basically the same and are creating consciousness then there should only be ONE consciousness looking out of every set of eyeballs simultaneously. A hopelessly superimposed existence from every possible viewpoint at once. I’m sure that materialists would claim that no, no, brains are so complex they are all different. Ok, so what would have to be recreated in another brain for me to exist looking out of another set of eyeballs? When the ontologies purporting to explain consciousness are examined critically it becomes obvious that all materialist/reductionist strategies fail completely in attempting to address the individuality question. What is the principled explanation for why: A brain over here would generate my specific consciousness and a brain over there would generate your specific consciousness? Integrated information over here would generate my specific consciousness and integrated information over there would generate your specific consciousness? Global workspace over here would generate my specific consciousness and global workspace there would generate your specific consciousness? Orchestrated quantum collapse in microtubules over here would generate my specific consciousness and orchestrated quantum collapse in microtubules over there would generate your specific consciousness? A clump of conscious atoms over here (panpsychicism) would generate my specific consciousness and a clump of conscious over there would generate your specific consciousness? If an exact copy of my body was suddenly created in antarctica would I find myself to exist freezing there while also sitting in the comfort my living room? According to the physicalists that would have to be true or their argument collapses into incoherence. Materialism already fails since it cannot find a transfer function between microvolt level sparks in the brain and any experience or qualia. In addition it’s not possible for materialistic ontologies to address this question of individuality since no measurement can be made that could verify my consciousness vs your consciousness and therefore no materialist ontology could make any coherent statements about the subject. How could pure awareness even be individualized? Physicalists demand measurements but with consciousness there is nothing to measure. There is electricity in the brain they say. We’ll measure that. Is electricity consciousness? If so then once I again I should exist everywhere at once since electricity cannot be individualized. My blender uses electricity. Is it a genius? Unless materialists can answer these questions their premise collapses like the house of cards it is. As far as other ways of thought are concerned only Dualism and Idealism can account for our sense of individuality. Dualism assumes we are all individual spirits/souls matched up to a body through some undefined process. Idealism, which states that consciousness is primary also answers the question of why I seem to exist as an individual. One consciousness exists looking out of every set of eyeballs and in the process the illusion of individuality is created in each case. In actual reality I am you, you are me, we are one.

QUESTION, for what reason does a system change when trying to model itself? What causes the change when simply creating a model of ones self/system?????

Donald Hoffman is my hero, he is a pioneer that isn't afraid to test new ideas!!! 💪

Excellent discussion!

I think I’m driving my husband mad.We are painting the house at the moment but for me it’s just an opportunity to listen to Professor Hoffman. I also love Eckhart Tolle and was gobsmacked when Don (sorry to be so informal 😊) said A New Earth was his favourite book.It’s mine too. This was a great interview, thank you so much. Please Don, could you talk with Eckhart Tolle? What amazing insights would come out of that!!! I think humanity would thank you for it (eventually 😊)

"so basically if you're successful then ill be out of a job" 😅

wow... I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me to see me looking back at you

Loved this interview. Especially the rapid fire questions at the end.

Mr what happened about your experiment regarding Conscious Agents and the Subatomic World ، Which you suggested here? www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=noetic.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Conscious-Agents-Full-Proposal.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjElNbYkpaDAxU_UKQEHez8BtQQFnoECAwQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0H5CJelqASjHUFAwpBsfFm

I miss the time when i wasn't born yet. That was heaven.

good video, at what minute does he say about life after death?

Thanks for this very important information about about schizophrenia!

Do you have the resources mentioned at the end?
