0:00 Introduction
3:30 reasons why objective reality outside consciousness seem intuitive: 1. Neural correlates of experience, 2 seemingly consistent objective reality 3. The world doesn't respond to our wishes
7:50 how to overcome these prejudices
10:30 what is undeniably observable as a starting point
13:20 what is the most parsimonious explanation
17:00 Intrinsic vrs extrinsic experience
20:00 Brain function is the extrinsic experience of intrinsic experience
24:28 Intrinsic experiences are reflected back to us as extrinsic experiences
27:30 Information is just a description of richness of states, and does not exist in and of itself
30:30 In idealism phenomenology & ontology are closely related
31:20 All matter is the extrinsic experience of inner life, and mass, charge, spin are merely descriptions of this extrinsic experience.
36:40 Consciousness is not at rest in deep sleep
41:00 Does a TV, a sun or blackhole have inner life?
47:30 The subconscious is mislabeled concept - its only the lack of explicit meta-cognition.
48:00 This is a high match with Near Death Experiences
49:20 Blindsight is a break in meta-cognition (back and forth between experience and self-reporting of the experience.
51:20 The matter of the brain implies that all matter is extrinsic appearance of universal inner life.
53:30 There are no separate objects in the universe - all separation is arbitrary, nominal.
58:00 The universe as a whole is an appearance of an inner experience
60:00 Why does the universe configure itself this way? Why is there suffering?
1:06:00 might universal consciousness dream?
It doesn't have different perspectives, only a wholistic view
1:11:20 AI is not conscious
1:12:20 the universe has no plan
1:14:00 metacognition is the recognition of your own experience
1:15:20 are all living being (plants etc) conscious?
1:16:00 how do the two preservatives (intrinsic and extrinsic) emerge? Dissociation
1:23:00 compartmentalisation is a form of dissociation and shows how we impinge on each others experience, which we call perception
1:30:00 the body is the appearance of dissociation, the world an appearance of mind at large ( universal consciousness not part of alters)
1:36:11 Gods, aliens, angels and split personalities... can there be dissociations within dissociations?

PROBLEMS OF MATERIALISM

0:00 Introduction
5:00 Materialism means mainstream metaphysical physicalism
8:00 Materialism = mainstream physicalism
8:45 Even militant materialists don’t understand materialism
Understanding what Materialism Claims
14:33 Understanding metaphysical materialism - - that conscious experience is only possible as an emergent property of complex arrangements of matter in the brain.
18:03 According to materialism, the world is only happening inside the skull
18:10 Matter is an explanatory abstraction of mind, happening in the mind
22:40 Scientists discovered it was useful to describe perceptions in terms of quantities, which capture relative differences in perceived qualities, eg, weight.
23:40 Materialism retains measurements and discards that which is measured
27:00 Materialism involves a confusion that creates the hard problem, the ‘explanatory gap’
28:10 It’s reducing the territory to the map, and failing to explain the territory
28:50 There is no contradiction between idealism and descriptions of nature
30:50 The difference between qualities and descriptions: experience vrs numbers/models
That what cannot be captured by numbers, which capture the RELATIVE difference in qualities, which only has meaning if having experienced the qualities
34:36 Idealism doesn’t deny consensus reality
36:45 Seeing through the hard problem of consciousness
39:35 The problem with materialism is not reductionism, it's what they reduce things to
41:30 Metaphysical materialism vs Ethical Materialism
44:25 Ontology, the study of what is, the essence of things

53:00 Defining “epiphenomenon” - something reducible, a product of something else, eg wetness is something that can not exist without water.. For a materialist, experience is an epiphenomenon of matter.

1:06:30 Science tells us how reality behaves, not what it is
Science examines how nature behaves
Philosophy in metaphysics is what nature IS
1:11:22 Materialist don’t understand materialism or evidence of science
The behaviour of nature contradicts ‘physical realism’ - objects existing in a defined way independent of observation, disproved by quantum experiments. Physicality arises only upon observation.
1:15:28 Summary of experiments that refute physical idealism blogs.scientificamerican.com/observations/coming-to-grips-with-the-implications-of-quantum-mechanics
1:16:48 Evaluating materialism based on logic, consistency, parsimony, empiricism and its explanatory power

1:30:40 Constitutive Panpsychism: materialism’s newest incarnation
an attempt to attribute consciousness to the description
1:34:39 Problems with Constitutive Panpsychism
1:37:50 2nd problem of panpsychism - attributing to experiences a structure only perceived on the screen of perception.
1:43:00 3rd problem if panpsychism - there are no separate particles, in the same way, there are no ripples separate from water - it can’t explain the apparent separation
1:51:22 Cosmo-psychism - an unnecessary label for idealism
The universe is in consciousness is different from the universe is conscious
2:02:20 Materialism nor panpsychism are tenable.
2:02:40 Which book to start with

Buddhism vs Nonduality: Yahel Avigur on the emptiness of awareness

Adventures in Awareness 2024-09-08 | The following is a conversation with Yahel Avigur, a highly regarded meditation teacher in the Buddhist Insight meditation tradition. He regularly leads retreats at Gaia House in the UK, and was approved to Rob Burbea to teach his approach to emptiness, dependent arising and Jhanas, the special states of deep absorption that can arise in mediation. He is highly sought after to guide long personal silent retreats for people doing 3 month, 6 month and year long immersions.

The conversation is basically motivated by my desire to understand the differences between Advaita Vedanta and Buddhist perspectives on reality and awakening. Specifically, how fundamental is awareness?

Advaita Vendanta is otherwise known as non-duality or metaphysical idealism, which is the notion that all of reality is consciousness, and there are many other videos on the channel with Bernado Kastrup, Rupert Spira, Christopher Wallis and such that expound on this view.

Mark Ovland: Beyond Awakening - on Rob Burbea, Buddhism and Loving-Kindness

Adventures in Awareness 2024-08-29 | Mark grew up in the UK as an atheist, but then spent a year as a monk in India after a powerful and unexpected spiritual awakening. He now teaches insight meditation inspired by the late Rob Burbea, with a focus on understanding the emptiness of all things and the ways in which changing our ways of looking can reduce suffering and enhance the beauty of life. He offers teachings freely, living frugally in a caravan in the UK, from donations from those who appreciate what he offers.

He'll be teaching a freely-given 6-week course on Loving Kindness Meditation online in October: https://dandelion.events/e/e92bd

Patrick Harpur | Bernardo Kastrup: Myth, Imagination & Truth

Adventures in Awareness 2024-05-12 | An excerpt from a 5-week discussion series with Bernardo Kastrup, with guest Patrick Harpur.

To join the mailing list for future editions please visit adventuresinawareness.com/events

We discussed:

Patrick's route to the Western Esoteric Tradition
Daimons, Shamans and the link between worlds
His views on anomalous phenomena (UFOs, fairies etc)
Enlightenment and the Western Tradition

Patrick Harpur attended St Catharine's College, Cambridge, to read English, and his writings have appeared in The Guardian, Fortean Times, Gnosis, Resurgence, the New Statesman and the Independent on Sunday. He is often invited to give talks in the UK, in Spain and in America; and he has taught post-graduate students at Schumacher College (Dartington).

As well as several novels, Patrick is the author of 4 non-fiction books including Daimonic Reality: A Field Guide to the Otherworld which attempted to make sense of visions and apparitions by recourse to Platonic philosophy, Jungian psychology, and the Romantic notion of imagination. He also wrote The Philosophers' Secret Fire: A History of the Imagination outlined an esoteric Western way of seeing the world which has been largely neglected. In 2010, Rider published the rather ambitiously titled A Complete Guide to the Soul, which appeared a year later in the US as The Secret Tradition of the Soul (Evolver Editions, an imprint of North Atlantic Books). The Stormy Petrel (The Squeeze Press, 2017) is a novel based on the life and work of the Danish thinker Søren Kierkegaard, whose writings have gripped Patrick for years.

Federico Faggin | Bernardo Kastrup: Quantum Physics, Spirituality & Consciousness

Adventures in Awareness 2024-04-25 | This was an excerpt from a 5-week discussion series with Bernardo Kastrup, Nov 2022, with guest Federico Faggin.

Federico Faggin is an Italian-American physicist, engineer, inventor and entrepreneur. He is best known for designing the first commercial microprocessor, the Intel 4004.

In 2011, Faggin founded the Federico and Elvia Faggin Foundation to support the scientific study of consciousness at US universities and research institutes.

Bernardo considers him ‘probably the most well-rounded Idealist alive today.’

He has a new book just released available here: collectiveinkbooks.com/essentia-books/our-books/irreducible-consciousness-life-computers-human-nature

We discussed:

Federico's journey to his model of reality
How science must completely change to incorporate consciousness
How quantum states make sense when viewed as descriptions of experience
How consciousness and life are nothing like computers
How meditation, spirituality and science relate

0:00 Is the world real?
03:15 History of Nondual Shaiva Tantra / Kashmir Shaivism
4:50 Mind-only view supported by logic, mystical experience and scriptural revelation
7:28 3 types of writing: philosophical argumentation, poetry and instruction manuals
9:06 The view: there is only one consciousness who’s body is the entire universe of phenomena
10:40 There are individuals, but only one all encompassing agent: Each being is a microcosm of the whole
12:14 The world is real, not illusory - space time and form are not fundamental
15:22 Realisation that leads to freedom from suffering
20:20 In contrast with advaita vedanta the world is not an illusion: consciousness is innately dynamic

CHRISTOPHER | BERNARDO DIALOGUE

23:00 No-self, No boundary - but unique vantage points
26:30 dissociation is mental processes that cannot infer other content through association
27:44 Two vantage points does not equate to dissociation = two eyes, one consciousness
33:38 There is no personal free will, only the whole
41:22 “Will” is why there is something rather than nothing
45:12 Deep meditation can reveal the state of pure awareness with no experience
55:10 Time is a mental model: there is no flow of time

“no body has ever experienced the flow of time… there is only a grand tree of cognitive content, associated or not with one another through the evocation of common meanings. That’s all there is, ever was and all there ever will be ” - Bernardo

1:04:33 Duality is a mental construct
1:07:20 Should we trust reason, or evidence? Revelation or Perception?
1:18:33 **What meditation & mystical experience can reveal:**
- Now includes all the future and the past
- All existence infused with live presence
1:23:50 What it takes to “get it”

CONTENT

0:00 Introduction
1:40 What Bernardo appreciates in Michaels work
2:50 What Michael appreciates in Bernardo’s work.
3:55 How to tell what is conscious
10:00 Every cell does what neurons do: if brains produce consciousness maybe all cells do
12:00 A framework for types of mind
14:40 The continuum of agency: based on prediction and efficacious interaction
19:27 Bernardo’s: the boundaries of self
24:09 Bernardo: conscious computers are unlikely: things only exist conceptually
29:00 Michael: Goal seeking the best measure of consciousness: since there is no obvious place mechanical chemistry becomes cognitive life, and all life is a collection of nested selves
36:26 Bernardo: Individuality is epiphenomenal and can explain laboratory division of life
.
LIFE VS IMITATIONS

39:54 Bernardo: Distinguish between what is natural and what is an imitation (a mannequin)
A Mannequin looks like a human because it is designed to look like one, but we can’t draw more correlations based on that. AI might seek certain goals because it was designed to by its creators, but equally we can’t draw further conclusions based on that.
42:13 Michael: gears and cogs could make life
46:00 Michael: Metabolism is a version of autopoiesis; self construction and the need to battle for energy
48:00 Agency must be determined by perturbative experiments, not casual observation.
50:58 Life identified by goal seeking behaviour
55:26 Bernardo praises the paradigm shift Michael introduces in recognising agents in nature
Michael recognises the alternative health community as having this paradigm without the mechanism. Bioelectrical networks the glue collections of cells.
1:00 Hypnosis/therapy may be mechanisms to intervene at higher order levels.
1:07:00 Recap of criteria for consciousness
1:13:00 Moral/Ethical implications of Michael’s work
1:19:00 Recognising higher order agents in human society
Michael is not sure if bioelectricity can be extrapolated to human society

Spontaneous Spiritual Awakening with Jessica Corneille

Adventures in Awareness 2023-02-17 | Recorded April 2022

Following her own sudden non-dual experience one morning in February 2016, Jessica Corneille decided to change the course of her life by quitting her career in the arts/cultural heritage preservation (and as an aspiring art curator), to play her part, instead, in helping to de-stigmatise, de-pathologise and raise awareness around spiritual awakening, enlightenment, and non-dual experiences within mainstream psychology.

She graduated with Distinction from a Masters Degree in Psychology from the University of Greenwich, where she focused her studies on the psychology of exceptional human experiences (transpersonal, anomalistic and parapsychology), under the guidance of Dr David Luke. She is now a fully-qualified research psychologist specialising predominantly in spiritual awakenings of a spontaneous nature, as well as other non-ordinary states of consciousness. Jessica has presented her work at a number of academic conferences, including with the British Psychological Society. She also works for the Scientific and Medical Network, is a member of the Galileo Commission steering committee, a collaborator of the Emergent Phenomenology Research Consortium and Spiritual Crisis Network, a certified Kundalini Yoga teacher running regular classes in London, and has recently started running sharing circles with the Psychedelic Society and Spiritual Awakenings International.

Her greatest missions in life are to challenge the default pathologisation of awakening experiences by helping to inform and encourage mainstream psychology to look beyond the current designated spectrum of ‘normality’, to encompass the transpersonal as something that is intrinsic to the human experience, and in helping individuals come to the realisation of their highest human potential.

Can Universal Consciousness learn? Bernardo Kastrup & Rupert Spira

Adventures in Awareness 2022-10-16 | Bernardo Kastrup & Rupert Spira discuss whether universal consciousness does or can learn anything from the experiences we have in this life? For example, an awareness of its capabilities, or the knowing of what it would feel like not to be itself.

“I personally am convinced that nature has a telos, and it has to do with explicit self-awareness” - Bernardo Kastrup

The purpose we all feel in whatever we are striving for, I think it is the impulse in us to revert to our natural state” - Rupert Spira
