Nationalism : When you feel a sense of Indianess when you help a fellow Indian in another country. Hyper Nationalism : When you feel a sense of Indianness when you think you are the only Indian in India.
Oh here we go with the civic nationalism garbage again. 😂 India needs to be ultra nationalist because we don't have cheap access to high quality resources nor cheap energy. If you had one of the two, you could have realistically run a welfare state, bribing communities to stay in line like Russia, select Arab states or the union of UK. Our most abundant resource is population and agriculture. We are in the industrial era where agriculture isnt as valuable, so we sell people and communities. The only thing that can stop it is a form of morality, nationalism.
20:00 Deeps, you are not pain. You are the experiencer of pain. Pain is an experience, and you ‘have’ pain, you are NOT pain. When you have an image come up in your mind, you are the watcher of that image. You are not the image in itself. This is similar to how we don’t say, ‘I am fever’, we instead say, ‘I HAVE fever’
Since you think in terms of time, you say, "I am the experiencer of pain". But the experience derives its existence from me. The experience i.e. "feeling of pain","sight of a tree","thought currents" don't have independent existence experientially. Yes, they are caused by a myriad of different processes. But experientially it is me. When you experience pain and think "I am experiencing pain" that thought is another object that appears in you-the first person experience.
@@deepankulandaisami9544Hey deeps lets end this bs once n for all. Tell me which of the following options is close to what you believe. If i stub my toe on a rock 1. I am imagining that i stubbed my toe on rock and the painful experience is also creation of my own. 2. I stubbed my toe on a rock that exists outside my imagination and doing so i GAINED painful experience.
@@spuriusscapula4829 what do you mean by that? Both birth and death are unsolved mysteries. I can create a hypothesis. It seems to me that the stuff out of which the self i.e. the experience is made out of seems to remain unaffected by its contents. So I think it neither appears at birth nor disappears at death. I suppose it continues to exist through the chemical reactions and heat flows that occur after the death of the brain if consciousness is a weak emergence. But this is a hypothetical assumption, which may be wrong.
Deeps seems to be talking about a mix of solipsism with the Hindu doctrine. We can see the tree, but we will only see the tree from our subjective perspective and not for what the tree actually is from its perspective.
Right. The tree exists independently of my watching. If I am aware that the vision of the tree is a projection of something out there in "me", I am in touch with the actual evident fact. So all the time I am the experience, not a separate experiencer experiencing 'the world'. Please note I am not saying that an objective "the world" doesn't exist. It exists. We are all sharing this planet Earth. But all I know about it is its projection in me. I find the "me" to be the experience itself, which is not properly accounted for by the standard model of particle physics.
@@s_anandsurya Yeah, I am very much interested to know if neuroscience can give an explanation. I am actively following their work. As I said in the live stream, I am studying integrated information theory. I looked at the highly disputed theory put forth in the mid-1990s by Stuart Hameroff and Sir Roger Penrose that consciousness is based on activities in tubulin/microtubules inside brain neurons. I went through the book Existential Physics by the German physicist Sabine Hossenfelder, where she delves into this topic and presents criticism of Roger Penrose's model of consciousness. But still, I am not able to grasp how electrical activities in the brain give rise to a first-person experience? There need not be any first-person experience at all. Till now, we have not observed any strong emergence in nature. So, scientists say it is more plausible that consciousness is a weak emergence. But logically, the contents of consciousness emerge from the neural activities in the brain. But how does consciousness itself emerge? This is what has been bothering me. If you can provide more sources regarding this hard problem of consciousness, that would be very helpful.
I think I understand what he is trying to say. The subjective experience is a construct which is agreeable but not shareable. When I see a tree, it physically exists in the universe (agreeable) but my conscious experience of it is a construct (imaginary, painted by my brain) which is not shareable. We can agree that wavelength of 550 in the spectrum of light is green. But the experience of seeing between you and me might be very different and we’ll never know it. To simplify, if I could get into you head and experience your experience of seeing green it might be like my experience of seeing red. But, we’ll never know that. However, our response might be same. We’ll point at it and say Green. Lived with this thought for 25 years. It feels great to pen it down here.
I am happy that you almost understood what I tried to convey. Regarding your green colour argument, it is plausible that the wavelength 550mm appears as the same colour (even in conscious construct) for all human beings because we human beings share a similar brain structure. Though I may be oversimplifying it, I hope you get what I am saying. But the very fact of discovering this aloneness frees you completely from this comparative reality: me and you, we and them. Because when you discover I am "the conscious experience" itself, there is no other as far as your existence is concerned. This frees a person from jealousy, social pressure, the whole rat race, and herd mentality. Then whatever you do is authentic, which is the goal of religious enquiry.
@@vivianferrao6133 Sure I will start reading this book "Guns, Germs, and Steel: The Fates of Human Societies" In the live stream, I actually tried to convey that religion is a stagnation in the enquiry process. The human psyche is the same right whether ancient or modern?
@@deepankulandaisami9544Do you have any proof of the claim that such a discovery frees oneself from all the ills you have listed? In my college days, when we would discuss philosophy and metaphysics for fun almost all of my friends had some version of the light example and the aloneness that you talk about. Yet everyone of those people are now in the rat race of life, job. They display jealousy. The thought itself if not profound but an interesting concept. It is so mundane however that most people drop it within a few days of discovering it.
@@deepankulandaisami9544 yes my friend. It’s a perspective changer. It keeps ego in check. It can also make you feel lonely in spite of surrounded by loved ones. We’ll never know how we individually see 550mm. Possibility of me seeing it same in my world as in your world is one in infinite. We’ll never know. Our brain is objective again. Its function might be similar subjective experience is very personal and we’ll never know.
@@kongspeaks4778 You are right :) I meant it is not true only according to me, but it is the actual fact if everyone pays attention. Self is the experience itself. The recognition of this fact is also another experience, which liberates one from all the needless bondages and suffering caused by the wrong identifications of the self. So this self-realisation (not just theoretically thinking about it but actually feeling it in the very core) is extremely crucial and that is the goal of religious enquiry.
@@deepankulandaisami9544 Let's say, hypothetically, that you're in a void devoid of any material actualization or other organic presence of any external consciousness outside of you. How would you recognise yourself? On what basis would you demonstrate the presence of your own consciousness? Why do people get mentally deranged in white rooms? Because there's no external stimulus. There's no other consciousness that is competent to recognise their existence. Self-realisation is an easy way to affirm yourself intuitively and immediately. It's only when we come out of ourselves to construct societies, laws, and languages that we become something more than a simple consciousness. We're self-conscious for the very reason we can recognise other consciousnesses. Science and philosophical history are engrossed in formulating a systematic approach that explains not only the "self" as you do but also the "other." The self is a synthesis of subject and object; Vimoh doesn't get it, nor do you.
It's true, people just blindly take sides in the Israel Palestine debate. I've been seeing this crap since the times of Arafat and that Israeli premier who got assassinated, dont remember his name. And I've always felt the same way, it's like a vicious cycle which never ends. Though I must cede that Israel has been a bit more brutal in its attacks throughout, if the casualties numbers are to be believed. I dont agree with the "colonizer" argument, because present day Jews are not responsible for their long past ancestors settling this land out of nowhere.
