The process by which an "I"/ego identity gets built and what it actually is, and isn't. Genetic effects on "I" construction. Simple exercises to understand the structure of the "I" and "mind".
Recent cognitive science experiments on what part of the brain solves complex problems, whether problems are solved consciously or subconsciously and what role, if any, the "I" plays in problem solving.
Presentation at Science and Non-Duality Conference in San Rafael, CA in October 2010. The other two videos from this presentation are "Practices for Reaching a Thought-Free State", and "Loss of Thought and Where Is the "I" in the Brain?".
