Consciousness is perhaps the biggest riddle in nature. In the first part of this three part video series, we explore the origins of consciousness and take a closer look on how unaware things became aware.
This video was made possible by a grant from the Templeton World Charity Foundation.

It's amazing that humans are conscious enough to question everything, even consciousness itself.
What if rocks are actually soft but tense up when you touch them?
It amazes me how at our core we’re just a collection of different chemical processes that all come together to be aware
My guess is that consciousness formed as an improved feedback system. It is a lot easier for an organism to approach or avoid certain circumstances if it has tools that span beyond that of automatic processes. The ability to think and reason does a lot to help ensure the survival and quality of life of an individual. It also helps one make sense of the environment around oneself rather than just existing and relying on automatic functions

That worm low-key describes me moving out of my dark room to get food and then returning to it
I don't know what age did I become conscious. It's crazy to think about that! I just suddenly became aware of the world 💗
It’s crazy how complex our minds really are
Conclusion: I eat, therefore, I am.
I often think about how in hundreds of years from now, digital archeologists will be combing through these videos and marvel at how we could possibly have got by in our lives knowing so little about how we got to where we currently are.
I find your videos always so amazing ! I appreciate them so much. I follow your channel since the beginning and I am so happy that you made such a great journey. The success of this channel is well deserved! We wish also to bring so much value with our youtube channel to the community as this one does !
"It probably started with the urge for more food"
"It probably all started with the urge for more food" is the title of my auto biography
A good definition of consciousness I once read in a text on yoga psychology is that consciousness is awareness of awareness and this always sat well with me.
You videos are brilliant, keeps my mind in a state of flow, whilst watching your videos. Carry on the great work man, make the society better. 🙏🏽
The first consciousness was hunger, which is a basic rudimentary awareness that caused neural networks to evolved.
"Which can be quite a challenge, even for adult humans"
The animations on this channel just get better and better, it's honestly incredible. It literally feels like I am watching a show on TV or on Netflix.
