An Introduction to Consciousness Theories [Layer 1]

Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal



Theories of Everything with Curt Jaimungal

This is the FIRST LAYER of the Consciousness Iceberg. The must-read paper is “A Landscape of Consciousness: Toward a Taxonomy of Explanations and Implications” in Progress in Biophysics and Molecular Biology: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pbiomolbio.2023.12.003. This was painstakingly and beautifully put together by Robert Lawrence Kuhn.

– https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pbiomolbio.2023.12.003 Robert Lawrence Kuhn’s behemoth series on consciousness https://closertotruth.com/playlist/the-mystery-of-consciousness-why-is-consciousness-a-mystery/ [The Mystery of Consciousness | Closer to Truth] is something I highly recommend. In fact, any of https://www.youtube.com/@CloserToTruthTV is fantastic.

  2. At the end of the long journey to understand consciousness lies the inevitable realisation that consciousness cannot be consciously understood.

  3. Oh this is lovely! I just found this "course", and plan to watch it through. You might recommend this to your viewers from time to time. It is helpful to have a common framework; even more important, a common (grounded) epistemological approach. RIP Karl Popper

  4. Consciousness increases as the brain developes and advances therefore its in the brain. As the brain is able to process more complex information it causes consciousness to expand.

  6. "With the exception of the artificial and abstract thinker in you, you are pure Nature" and "Life's evolution is consciousness' evolution" are phrases from a book titled Toward your Real Self.

  9. sorry man, but so-called near death experiences have no credibility at all; most parsimonious explanation is simply hallucinations in a brain under duress.

  11. Thank you for this video, greatly appreciate your layered format that broadly sweeps, then digs deeper into Consciousness. Cheers!

  14. This was probably the weakest exploration of consciousness I've seen on youtube in the literal 20 years I've been using it smfh. Flashy videos mean nothing. I know you're capable of more than this, please read up and try again.

  16. I found this video extremely valuable I think that your students will also benefit from the 7-Eleven model from Aquarius Academy, there’s a series of videos on it on YouTube if you search like intro to universal consciousness Aquarius

  20. Curt, it would be advisable to you to read the books of Elder Sophrony of Essex, England, and take into account his sayings, if you want to be fair to yourself and to your viewers on the subjects you present to them.

  21. Just discovered your channel and am very excited. However, I’m a short way through this video and I’ve noticed a few distractingly odd mis-spellings given how legit everything seems to be. At 2:44 you use the word “qualia” and it pops up in the video as “equalia”; also, later on, when you first mention dualism, the word pops up as “duelism.” Obviously not a huge deal, but if hadn’t first got the sense that this was going to be a more-than-legit presentation of theories of consciousness, I definitely would have navigated away after seeing the typos. Which is just to say that you might be missing out on some number of viewers.
    Anyway, back to the video! 👀🍿

  24. Dualism is not mind & body. It is having (1) your (ego) self as the 'subject' and (2) the things you think about as the 'objects' of your thought. In the non-dual state you only experience what you perceive and do, without seeing yourself as the one (in charge of) viewing it & doing it. Everything seems a bit quieter in the non-dual state, but also clearer & brighter.
