    Creating more unknowns without learning the basic one. Just because we don't know how matter acquire consciousness when it comes together, it doesn't mean other things(conciouss particles, conciouss Universe). Maybe this is the case and we just don't know how exactly it works. Assuming that the particles or the entire cosmos has consciousness is a stretch, but also I can not falsify.

      I used to think so too, but then I had a direct experience that showed me that consciousness is something fundamental, something universal, something unbounded by space or time. They way I understand it now is that consciousness is the substance of the phenomenal world that we experience. So it may be the most simple explanation that consciousness is the substance of the universe itself.

    It doesn't look as many little bits of consciousness, because each bit perceives individually. It's easy to prove by the case of people who got their brains split. Even if two parts of the same person starts to behave independently, neither part feels much of the difference. Each hemisphere works like it worked before but unable to coordinate their movements. These are still the same parts of the same person.

    The conscious is the superficial part of the mind which is lighted, and below it lies the unconscious buried in the dark. Then below the unconscious lies the collective unconscious, and at the bottom lies the cosmic unconscious - which is the mind of the entire universe, which is the total mind, the universal mind. Remembrance of God or self-remembering happens at the level of the cosmic mind, which is the ultimate in consciousness. God or self is known when we become completely integrated - not only with our unconscious and collective minds, but also with the cosmic consciousness, which is of the highest.

      I'm a salesman by trade and lawyer by education, yet I can prove panpsychism wrong in under a minute.
      If you assumes panpsychism is true, and you create a simple algorithm that i.e. keeps rising a displayed number by one each second; the assumption of panpsychism does not affect the computation performed by your algorithm in any way. It keeps doing the same thing, as any computation would. However, if you ask a human if they are conscious, they will provide a response. They will think about it, move their lips and push the air out of their lungs. They can write an answer on a keyboard. So you would still need a "bridge" between computational component, and this "conscious" aspect of matter, to use panpsychism as an explanation to anything. Intelligence of humans would not change anything here. Why would only human brains somehow be physically affected, but not simple algorithms or apples falling from trees.
      Panpsychism just does not work. Honestly it's even worse than God, because technically you can't logically exclude a God.

    Consciousness being a first person experience, can never be verified. But Conscious behavior on the other hand is very possible. Panpsychism or Cosmic panpsychism or cosmic consciousness can all be behaviors. we can for example say that gravitational pull is possible because there is some level of consciousness in the objects. This is more of a framework to build complex conscious behavior.

If for example materialism is true, then there should be a primary particle that is eternal and unchanging from which everything else is created. But then, that would be God under this model of existence. It would not be a personal God or a sentience, but simply a building block.. But Being is God.

But to me, the idea that the whole exists is prior to, and more fundamental than the parts is actually more in line with my intuition. I used to think it was clear that things are made of parts, but now I think it makes more sense to think in terms of existence as a whole. There is only one Existence.

      If you relate to how can multiple parts of the brain create a singular, momentary experience; i.e. why does the activity of individual neurons create integrated sensations (i.e. faces, shapes, melodies); the answer is simply TIME.

But anyway we are where we are, making stuff up purely to avoid arrogance is false modesty on the one hand, and presumptuous to assume the authority to invent what exists on the other. There, I can be an arse when I want to as well. 😊
      In terms of sensing god, sure, some people genuinely seem to have this imperative feeling that there is or must be a divine presence. I don't have that, never have. I grew up in a religious household going to church and when I found out many of the adults actually really believed this stuff it was a bit of a shock, at quite a young age. I understand some people do have these experiences or feelings, and others don't. Just the way it is I suppose.

    What is Panpsychism?
    1. It is a fad that will pass.
    2. A last attempt at staving off the steady march of physical-ism or more correctly non-super-naturalism. Dualism, Idealism, Panpsychism comes and goes, but note that physicalism is a constant and marching forward steadily. Heck, all our modern societies including my ability to write this comment using the wonderful technology of internet, is a fruit of physicalism. Show some gratitude :)
    3. Posits something it needs to prove. Does not explain it.
    4. Demands from science to explain what electron IS (opposed to what it does), and then refuses to answer what consciousness IS in the same way. Do you think that is fair?
    5. Says fundamental particles are "proto" conscious - without saying what that means, and then goes on to say that when many fundamental particles come together in a special configuration the "proto"-consciousness of each somehow adds up and gives human like consciousness - but turns around and refuses to accept the same explanation of the mechanism when given by physicalists. Do you think that is fair? What is good for the goose should be good for the gander, No?

      Your first point is patently false. It's an ancient concept that is still around; the opposite of a fad.
      The rest of your comment is just word salad.

      Physicalists don’t know how brain activity could create conscious experience. They just describe brain activity then claim that it does.

      1. Don't confuse science -- a method --- with Physicalism -- a paradigm.

      2. If science cannot even explain the intrinsic nature of matter, it cannot do so for consciousness. But it is possible for consciousness to know its own essential nature
