The Hard Problem in Consciousness....Stuart Hameroff MD NYC Part#3 Mon 7/26/2010

[PartyAllSeason]

Is universe a living being or a non living being...coz the "life" is just a part of the universe, isn't it?...I mean, we the human beings along with other living beings are just a part of universe, a product of the same matter that constitutes universe...the consciousness or the "living" part of the universe has to exist in it, unless there is some "observer" outside the universe injecting life in selected parts of it...that means GOD

I believe consciousness is the fundamental "stuff" that makes up reality. The physical quantum particles and field are nothing more than pure mathematical computations done by the consciousness on a sub-conscious level. Basically, a universe can be "created" without the need for any actual physical atoms or energy field. We are living in a mathematical simulation.

[Kostly]

The supreme consciousness is filtered up through the quantum realm to give rise to the Universe. We are an expression of that consciousness just as every other "thing" in this universe is. Everything in the universe exists and beings are able to experience life as an ultimate conduit of that consciousness via the brain processes. I don't believe the brain creates consciousness. The holistic process of the supreme consciousness is how we're able to experience subjectivity.

@Kostly Could you be a little more non-descript next time?

[Kostly]

@othellopiano sure....everything is as you perceive it.

classic.

[DYNODRUM]

yes They are touching a Quantum level of perception..but what of The CREATION Of The Human Body ;etc. The fact that the Eyes can see and Interpret visual sight. That is more or just as profound..Man cannot reproduce any of what has been already here :That is a Mystery.

Stuart seems to want to stay away from idealism due to solipsism, but there are other forms of idealism that avoid solipsism, like that of the 17tg century Puritan jonathon Edwards and berkley. Moreover, if there's only 1 quantum field, then each of us are from that field. And god breathed into his nostrils the breath of life an man became a living soul. We're image bearers of God.

[tonyfalca]

@tatsumakisempyukaku Hmmm...I guess that's the same as saying there's no difference, no distance, between you and me whatsoever. The essence of each of our beings is the exact same, correct? On the surface, it only appears as if we are 'two separate' beings.

Great share. Though I would like to volunteer being the videographer next time. ;)

[nstoner111]

Thanks so much, please continue to share!!!! Great insight. However, I feel that if the tree falls in the wood while I am not there, then it will still fall independent of my consciousness. It seems as if the material world is independent of our mind. Even if it is just vibrations of my consciousness, it is also the vibrations of everyone elses.
