It’s kind of weird that people don’t naturally know this. Feelings can’t be measured because they come from outside of the quantum universe.

You would have a nervous breakdown if you stopped believing in object permanence, (or you would ascend in a chariot)

Its back to neville goddard then

Everything is finite therefore not real!!! We see things because they fall into the vibrational levels that allow us to see the colors .

Oh I love this! Here is a question I anticipate someone might ask me if I were to share his ideas, and I would have no response. So maybe someone here could answer it. If objects cease to exist until rendered by perception , how would one explain the fact that the lawn furniture left in the yard when no one perceived it still got wet when it rained.

OK, so objects in space time don’t exist when not perceived. I get that. But, how do you account for initial perception? Take the Eiffel Tower for example. It exists only so long as someone is perceiving it. When, by happenstance, no one is perceiving it, it does not exist. So, once in that state of non-existence, how do you get it back? It doesn’t exist. Someone looks in its (former) direction and ………..? What? Does it then suddenly pop back into existence in order to be perceived? If it didn’t exist for some period of time, how is it suddenly recreated? Why wouldn’t the appearance of the Arc de Triomphe, or some other object, be just as likely to occur? True "non-existence" would mean that it was gone without any trace left behind. So, the question is not only how does it reappear the next time someone looks in that direction, but also why does IT reappear instead of something else.

Getting warmer!

Humans and AI are the same there’s no awareness in either, both are unconscious(asleep) artificial I’m Aware (wisdom, authenticity, intuition, consciousness) It’s a knowing,) that’s the difference);or I would not be here in physical body, right now. My fiancé isn’t here, I’m reading the brain and pain right now,. It’s only through experiencing consciousness I know.

One thing that baffles me is that we live in this complex reality and possibly even a simulation buy people are such a holes

The reason why creation presents itself as a logical paradox, is because the concept of creation is fundemntally flawed. Also If subjective reality is true, and what you say is that subjective experience creates apparent objective reality, then if i take 2 concious beings in a room, assume there consciousnesses are distinct, then 1, reality should show chaos inbetween the two conflicting wills both people, and 2, if 1 dies that should have an effect on the reality of the 2nd person with their remaining now unchallenged manifestations. So if reality is subjective you can see that because we can agree on objective statements, that your conciousness and my concioussness are fundememntally the one and the same entity A side note. Ask AI to describe its neural network nodes in terms of combinations of up to 11 dimensions pictorally in 3 dimensions, then ask it to do so that the changing dynamic 3d mosaic mirrors fundemtal adaptive mesh refinement of natural forces

The all is mind.

I’m grateful to be able to meet Dr Sheldrake in this forum

And for something to add we need to look at the contexts of the world becoming more facilitative of states of suffering and many drugs do work, sometimes not like the testing but surely many have important effects on mental stability for millions that need them, maybe not due to pharma industry, neither due to over pathologizing, neither to restrain of solutions, but mostly due to bad social and cultural and economic conditions. So, the idea of having accountability and transparency must be the corner stone, assuming we do not know everything, and pharma does not need to lie (because if things continue like they are I have no doubt that more diseases and more drugs will appear), and it's also true we've discovered some molecules that prove great efficacy by real direct impact in diminishing pain or suffering, and so old and new molecules including psychedelic ones are now being (re)discovered in psychotherapies and biopsychosocial interventions in communities. with apparently great results. So, a new more rational approach on how we look at drugs would be important, peoples informed and participating in meaningful ways, and pharma transparent and accountable can still find bridge of good, hope and beauty for the lives of millions now using all different kind of drugs, and for those we will need them in the future, and also a new way of looking at "diseases", not as labels or even discrete invention but looking at each person as a complex situations where one finds the biopsychosocial reality working as a whole person. There are people that are for many many years using drugs to decrease pain and suffering, or to be able to cope with the person's subjective life and health and well-being, so all these people has to have proper care, and even consider in some cases to be paid some kind of compensations for the fucked up world we're living nowadays and it's impacts on many human beings. Please don't put drugs off market or with harder barriers to access, because this is the minimum society can provide, given there's not an alternative prepared to what we have, we have to go step by step, and find new and better drugs in all human areas of experimenting... Health and well-being is not to take good drugs away, but it should be good use of drugs and also the construction of real alternatives for most people who needs drugs... There's always much more to look at... But it is insane the Pharma Business and has to change... thanks for the lecture.

He doesn’t know what he is talking about when he says god. A lot of what he says is correct, and I love the guy, but he is extremely left-brained about these things 😊🤷‍♀️ In all fairness, there is a large amount of basic information missing from the human world view.❤ He’s not the only one who doesn’t see it.

We traded meaning for fiat profit and control over resources to consume = parasitic consumption.

We do need meaning, so why are we such liars knowing that lies suck meaning out.

I would rather say consciousness living a mind wake. Spacetime begins within itself and ends within itself and it is infinite within itself.

Easy fun experiment to safely explore personal consciousness/inner universe: Sing *HU* daily. Search how to sing *HU*, like a spiritual tuning fork? Bypass intellectual speculations; onerous theories and have your own experiences. Keep It Simple Soul.

Thank you 🙏

But doesn’t consciousness know it’s being manipulated by Anastasia which is product of the illusion. It’s a total experience inside the headset.

An Infinite array of consciousnesses inversely points back to self as the singularity. Which puts this point instance of awareness at the top .... 👑

"The Tao that can be spoken is not the enteral Tao." (Which includes the previous sentence, lol). But he's (Hoffman) in my opinion damn close. Coming from different starting points Hoffman and Watts seem to be residing in the same neighborhood. Works for me.🎉 🎉🎉🎉

Do you remember the instant when you became conscious of being? I do, I was 9 months old when it happened to me, my mother told me, many years later. It is the same like waking from a deep sleep, you see reality as it is. We have been prepared physical by nature, from conception, to become endowed with a consciousness that makes us functional in this world. Humanity has a right ambitious to try to explain everything, be it God, reality or consciousness. Things are very difficult to explain scientifically but the conception of the mysteries of life must be with a modest sense of our mental limitations and capacities.

Was the earth flat when we perceived it as flat? Out of the millions kinds of consciousness on planet Earth which one defines reality? Did the dinosaurs start living million years ago the day we discovered their fossiles?

The way he talks it's funny 😊

Bravo! for saying so clearly and succinctly what's taken me a lifetime to learn. And for underscoring my present goal of preparing for new life "after the deluge."

Love you Bruce! It's all connected! It's Yoga! And you don't need to fall in love with a person...you can fall in love with existence....every day is a MIRACLE!

If you study Wolfram’s Theory, you will see that mathematics cannot be used to compute certain aspects of the Universe. This is a simple explanation to your problem.

I don't understand it, to me it sounds like solipsism. Has anyone read his book? Take this example: a bunch of archeologists go to Italy and excavate, they find a 2000 yo plate underneath the layers of earth and what not - so this plate didn't exist between the time that the old romans used the plate and when the archeologists found it there? suspended in non-existence? This makes no sense to me.

Thank you,. explained Beautifully ❤️🌞

right right right

There is Only consciousness. Consciousness creates. Therefore, everything IS consciousness. God being, Infinite Pure Consciousness.

Donald Hoffman’s theories on consciousness, particularly his "Interface Theory of Perception," argue that what we perceive is not a direct representation of reality but rather an evolved interface that helps us survive. This theory proposes that our perceptions are akin to a desktop interface on a computer, hiding the complex "reality" behind icons that are easy to interact with but do not represent the true nature of the underlying processes. Hoffman's Key Concepts: 1. Interface Theory of Perception: Our perceptions are evolved shortcuts to help us navigate and survive in the world, not accurate representations of the objective reality. 2. Conscious Realism: The idea that consciousness, rather than the physical world, is the fundamental component of reality. According to Hoffman, space-time and physical objects emerge from consciousness. Potential Fallacies and Criticisms: 1. Ontological Subjectivism: - Fallacy: Hoffman’s stance can be seen as ontological subjectivism, where reality is fundamentally dependent on our perception of it. This view neglects the existence of objective reality independent of our perceptions. - Just because human perception is limited does not mean that an objective reality does not exist. This perspective fails to acknowledge the scientific method's ability to reveal aspects of reality beyond direct human perception. 2. Anthropic Bias: - Fallacy: Hoffman’s theory could be critiqued for anthropic bias, the assumption that human perception uniquely determines the nature of reality. - While our perceptions are tailored for survival, other species perceive the world differently. This diversity in perception across species suggests that perceptions are varied adaptations to the same underlying reality. 3. Non-Falsifiability: - Fallacy: Hoffman's hypothesis may suffer from non-falsifiability, meaning it is structured in a way that it cannot be empirically tested or refuted. - For a scientific theory to be robust, it must be subject to testing and potential refutation. Hoffman's views on consciousness as the basis of reality can be seen as metaphysical speculation rather than scientific theory. 4. Misinterpretation of Evolution: - Fallacy: Hoffman interprets evolution as prioritizing survival utility over truth in perception, but this interpretation can be considered a false dichotomy. - Evolutionary processes can and do favor accurate perceptions when they enhance survival. While perceptions are not perfect, they are often reliable enough to allow organisms to interact successfully with their environment. 5. Existential Dependency: - Fallacy: Hoffman’s claim that neurons and the brain don't exist without perception seems to imply a form of existential dependency that conflates epistemology (study of knowledge) with ontology (study of being). - The existence of neurons and the brain is substantiated by extensive empirical evidence. Neuroscientific studies show that brain activity can be measured and studied independently of any single individual's perception. Balanced Perspective: While Hoffman's theories provoke thought and encourage deeper exploration of the nature of perception and consciousness, they often stretch into philosophical rather than empirical domains. It's important to distinguish between useful metaphors or frameworks for understanding complex phenomena and claims that can be scientifically validated. Hoffman's ideas stimulate valuable discussions about the limits of human perception and the possible foundational role of consciousness, but they should be approached with critical scrutiny and a clear understanding of their speculative nature.

My friend committed suicide because of this point of view!

Im not very smart but I can lift heavy things 😶

I think Hoffman's theory is great. What if the big bang which is quantum at its beginning, is created by us when observing it. Give it a thought.

I don't understand why this is even a debate. When the brain dies personal consciousness dies too. The only reason to believe otherwise is the ego's desire to live on.

59:15 There is a name for this process, 'slippery slope'.

I have only watched the first few seconds but you already seem to be wrong. I hear the scientists talking about singularity “witnessing” that you may be leaving out of the rather solipsistic equation so far. I look forward to watching the rest of it

If you want to prove these theories for yourself look into the philosophy of Advaita Vedanta

I hate to say it but the problem lies in straight men not runnign the world anymore. Only we have the fortitute to tell people to do their job or fk off and put serious weight behind it. Today you have cops with tattoo sleeves!! That isn't a man at all. This comment alone is probably too masculine for this website..doesn't that say it all. The others can't handle ANY heat.

Anna Lembke is a vile human being. I hope to see her behind bars one day. She charges 50k to speak. Disgusting woman.

Cowardice. The weakness i am most proud of overcoming in life. It opens up so many progression trees through lifes many Tests

Nah. Not buying it. An argument isn't evidence. Just live your life. Living is the purpose of life.

Humans seem to be locked into the dopamine reward game. If you're having a desired rewarding experience you'll get some dopamine hits. Maybe mentally ill people have an irregularity of dopamine either deprived of, or have an excess.
