Conscienciousness is a channel of science becoming " con " inside of you while awareness is a state while you feel more alive as usualy for to experience life and create a science of your own that makes you feel more and more alive
Genius and ahead of his time! We must pursue this!
he is talking bullshit
Consciousness is a lie. It’s the thought process which is light. And light is the 3D illusion. But you need something to talk about if you want to have a YouTube channel.
So it’s not good or bad. But if you want to be realistic then you have to stop giving validity to the 3D trance-state illusion we call reality.
Sorry to be the one to tell you. But everything is a lie.
Hahahaha. No one KNOWS what consciousness in. Nice speculation though.
This guy thinks he knows what he is talking about 😂
There are simpler explanations for the existence of consciousness that satisfy all of the known facts. This theory seems like a rehashed religious movement to help humans feel more important.
The way I figure, I am interested in anything that's has intellectual people who thinks this could be a reality, gives me the possibility that it will expand my mind to think there is a way out of this mess that leaves us all alternatives other than death.
I recently read a book that made me lean decidedly towards a form of oriental idealism called nonduality, it's called The Direct Experience the way of non-duality by the author Alessandro Sanna, a masterpiece
Bro these are boring guy makes me fall asleep
While I watched this I kept thinking about Kurt Godel. He went mad at the end of his days searching for a higher truth in number theory but prior to that his Incompleteness Theorem showed that you can't fully define a mathematical system while working inside of it. An obtuse example might be a computer program that can't fully describe itself, using it's own code, because it can't truly define anything outside the code. Think of this like its container (the computer) – but the program might be able to postulate that it's running in some sort of construct that it will never really experience (e.g a computer in our 3D reality). Hoffman's work on the higher dimensional objects that define complex quantum systems is very similar. In this sense, our physical reality is like the computer program in my example and the higher dimensional objects are like the computer. This has implications for AI as well; maybe it's impossible to create a truly sentient machine because the AI will always be one step away from our level of reality (note that Alan Turning mentioned this way way back). Hoffman's work embodies Obi Wan's words, "You've taken your first steps into a larger world."
Followup on the quadicrome women. Funny, I was reading about people who are multilingual [from the onset] who can differentiate sounds that others can't. This is probably true for everything. We all have perceptions that others don't. It's just a matter of finding and identifying them.
Surely the potential of consciousness and unconsciousness existed before, during and after the big bang … long before homo sapiens became aware of consciousness and named it. If this is true, then how might the potential of consciousness and the potential of unconsciousness exist without either being aware of their individual and combined potential?
This sounds like Brahman and Maya. Vedantic theory of the Hindus.
To see Lex, who is brilliantly able to follow all of his guests and their explanations on very complex and niche topics, fume at ears in response to Hoffman's answers (which Hoffman goes through smoke and fire in an attempt to simplify) says it all. It makes all the sense, while making not much sense at all. Yet you can see that Lex is very tuned in because he knows, this fucker's on to something.
That might explain the dress sense of some women…..
I have no idea what this guy is talkeing about!!
Lyfe
Jesus man can you save your questions until the end so he can actually explain what we are hear to see. Fkn interrupts him every two words. Who asks a question just to interrupt the answer?

What does Bacteria understand about our reality.
Lex makes things more complicated than they have to be. He seems quite naive at times… it almost seems like he is pretending he understands.. lol
He just want to say he likes ladyboys without saying he like ladyboys.
A modern science perspective will rarely be able to explain consciousness. You have to have the spiritual ability and clarity and understanding to explain or feel what is consciousness
One asks what type of existence is consciousness, in that it has no shape, and hardly exists in time, at best. Scientifically, I mean, what is its existence? If it is outside of S-T, then how to connect it? Possibilities. It dreams different possibilities, mind-forms, such as S-T, the cheap headset. Can it become solid object, e.g., neuron?
I am therefore I think I am
Intelligence is conciousness
One answer to the question is NDEs and Bufo Alvarius, no brain needed for consciousness to exist.

Being and Nothingness
GNOSIS is the answer
it's funny new believes became popular with in the last few years, as an effect of quantum field theory in physics, like the one we live in the matrix, while that is highly likely, most people can't comprehend what "our Matrix" actually is so they treat it like most other god based religion where at some point we'll be extracted someday into actual reality, while it might be very likely our consciousness just collapses and stops to exist after we die.
i just had a debate with the tree in y garden about this but both of us cannot come to n ultimate conclusion even though we are both alive!
Ever heard of God?
Interface? You need Jesus
When you think it not be like it is, but it do.
In depths where shadows writhe and coil,
Truth defies mortal toil.
Consciousness, a specter veiled within night's embrace,
A haunting dance between the realms of dark and light.
A quantum feedback loop, unseen, yet wild and free,
Where souls and minds find solace, ensnared in darkened glee.
Transcending matter, defying the clutches of time's cruel grasp,
Eerie depths where reality gasps.
Between the neurons, a sinister waltz unfolds,
Where souls and brains meld, in silent defiance, stories untold.
Whispers of secrets, echoes of dread,
In this enigmatic dance, where mysteries spread.
In the quantum realm, particles roam and play,
Consciousness beckons, claiming its spectral sway.
Elusive, ethereal, it slips through our grasp like shifting sands,
A riddle unsolved, across desolate lands.
Empirical methods may falter, as shadows persist,
Consciousness, a unique experience, resists.
A riddle unsolved, a mystery undefined,
In the depths of consciousness, the truth we may never find.
Gaze into the void, where truths are lost in the night,
Ponder the dance, the spectral grace, of darkness and light.
For within the depths of consciousness, mysteries lie,
A whispered lament, beneath the darkened sky.
Sensory deprivation induced hallucinations. What do we make of it? Hallucinating isn’t space time or matter but how real are they? Are they from our brain or are they some real conscious experience. What are dreams…? This stuff may be unanswerable.
There is a dilemma here, and it’s the clear bond between our consciousness and physical body and brain. If we remove oxygen, our conscious experience, or interface with physical body, seems to end. What do we make of it?
Considering that matter and reality might arise from our consciousness and not the other way around gives me chills. But which conscience set up the landscape we’re born into and interact with? I suppose this would be God obviously. But then reality existing comes about from our concious observation, then what is our relation to the God creator? How much does our Indian consciousness shape reality compared to others around us and before us and God?
The questions is does consciousness arise from reality, which is how we usually think of it, but we might have it backwards. Space, time, matter might arise from consciousness.
I loved this!

It's a made-up word / idea by humans to vaguely describe this experience called reality.
Profound… Yet, I couldn't stop myself from staring at Donald's shirt…

Great conversations, DR. Donald rocks in knowledge about the brain
Lex definitely has the tism
