Andrés Gómez Emilsson | Open Individualism (Part 1): Introduction @/Andr%C3%A9sG%C3%B3mezEmilsson | Uploaded June 2020 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
In this video I introduce the concept of Open Individualism - the idea that we are all one consciousness -, why it is relevant, and who has historically been a proponent of it (Einstein, Schopenhauer, Schrödinger, Hinduism, etc.).
We also cover the fact that there is a distinction between Open Individualism as an experience and Open Individualism as a philosophical position with rigorous arguments. I mention that I generally consider arguments to be more powerful and useful than just relying on first-person experiences, though experiences certainly have their place.
