Hey listen<\/strong> (please).
\nI get it if ‘my’ approach here seems way too opaque, long-winded, or lacking in fun and production value. <\/p>\n

If so–I’ve got you covered. Start here instead. <\/em><\/p>\n

Consciousness Explained<\/a> … and also:
\nWhat_is_Consciousness_Companion_PDF_Guide<\/a><\/p>\n

*** *** ***<\/p>\n

Part Two<\/a> of THE video.
\n‘Trying to be less wrong, or wrong in a more useful way.’<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the second half: just notes and scribbles.<\/em><\/p>\n

Hans the Dutch ex-evangelical interviewer <\/em>
\nHey, I work for Essentia … Essentia’s position: Physics alone is enough to prove that Consciousness is Fundamental.
\n(and, intellectually, i (was) so There with Idealism), but <\/p>\n

as a storyeller\/filmmkaker …
\n… ‘you wanna see for yourself’
\nI needed that one ayahuasca session to really get there
\njust needed the Experience, and yet: ‘that’s just experiential’, and
\nmaybe McKenna: go to the edge and THEN be rigorous<\/p>\n

Alex the Catalonian being interviewed<\/em>
\nyes, all neuroscience students should trip before they PhD
\nbut … what is the valence of these entities? I think of Carlos; he ties in evil
\n… we do it in this naive stupid irresponsible western way …
\ndon’t do it in flipflops and shorts like disneyland or the candy store
\nWe need to take It seriously. There well may be other worries.<\/p>\n

Bring passion to this space. Activism.<\/p>\n

***<\/p>\n

Sheldrake:
\nlet’s experiment, we need more of those Fools
\n‘the best sailors, they are not sailing’
\n‘you think you can be the objective scientist, journalist …
\nanaytical idealism is ideal for those who will only accept it if you present these ideas\/truths in a West\/leftbrain
\nway.<\/p>\n

On some level this is heresy, and recognizing fellow hereticals; resonance
\nconversation, seduction, conversion without imposition<\/p>\n

academia and publishing and grantfunding and theory\/career building is a ponzi scheme
\n‘science’ is thus broken, universities aren’t producing knowledge, and
\n“I don’t see that education is happening in schools, I don’t see a lot of healing happening in hospitals and I don’t see a lot of food sold in supermarkets”<\/strong>
\n… Progress? …
\n‘hypocrisy’ and ‘what options do I even have?’ <\/p>\n

Bernardo, heh, as the avatar of the way of the peaceful warrior.
\n‘Hey. No fighting, this is a place of peace.’
\nBeing the voice of those who don’t have one. Protecting them from the bullies. <\/p>\n

The map, and the Territory.<\/p>\n

Breathe. <\/p>\n

Next up?:<\/p>\n

A start on seeking out more from\/about G\u00f3mez-Mar\u00edn<\/a> (via Sheldrake)<\/p>\n

‘Essentia Foundation<\/a>‘ (and pairing that with Kastrup’s own site aka the Reality In Mind community<\/p>\n

Yet another site\/podcast<\/a> … the latest Gomez-Marin seems to be ep.192 from twenty months ago<\/p>\n

Where Gomez-Marin overlaps with Gabor Mate’<\/a>?<\/p>\n
