    Well I'm no psychologist or Neuro Scientist, just an old 71 year old Aussie dude who has been searching for the answer. And from gleaning what all these experts espouse, I have deduced : they just don't know! What I do know is : that everyone is miserable or depressed, it is just the extent! I do know that out of the blue all of sudden bizarre uneasy thoughts enter the mind and try to sabotage you. When you are aware of this; which is easier said than done, you can choose to dwell on those sabotaging thoughts or move on!

      @ROForeverMan hey my friend! So you love European dance huh? Let me tell you a little secret I absolutely love European music and dance especially things like Russian music and circus dancing but I also listen to German and French and step from the low countries as well but most of the stuff I listen to is like from The Voice Kids and Eurovision Junior. Because I love listening to the youngsters sing and dance because I think they have the most beautiful voices for one but there's just something about their innocence and Purity that I love and that is what drew me to the European stage because in modern Western pop culture today everything is Tainted with vulgarity and perversion and woke homosexual transgenderism which isn't necessarily what makes it so bad because it is completely terrible for children to be acting vulgar in any fashion whether it's in a heterosexual or or other fashion they are children and they should not be acting this way and take it even a step further vulgarity itself is not pretty. Some of the prettiest girls in the whole world are pop stars yet as soon as they start dancing sometimes just the look on their face and the way they are moving moving is completely disgusting and even when they are of age and even in a private setting I would not like it most of the time. Of course there is naturally the exception of a woman that I am either very attracted to or in love with. I would probably see any vulgarity from a person like this as beautiful at least if it was for me and private. And of course there is a fine line between sexy and beautiful and vulgar. Belly dancers are sexy and beautiful and erotic as hell and there's many other dancers like that yet modern pop culture has women doing the same kind of things that looks completely disgusting because they are over emphasizing the sexual motions. They crossed the line from dance to a place where it looks as if they are just mimicking pornography and for me even a fully grown beautiful woman doing this is ugly so the fact that they have teens and even preteens in Western culture trying to mimic this Behavior it's not just disgusting it is completely unacceptable and abomination in my opinion. I mean here in California for a while they were canceling school dances for 6th graders because the kids were twerking and I know that there have been issues with the girls and boys getting too close when they slow dance and that is the purpose of having an adult escort kids to their dances and such but I'll tell you what I would for what rather see the girls and boys dancing real close together then some of the behavior they tried to do in mimic of their favorite pop dancers. Boy I'm just going on and on and on ain't I? Well to make a long story short even though I know there is a lot of this in European dance and music is well it is not nearly as prevalent as it is in American and what there is of it is far more tasteful just like the K-pop in Asia. I mean those girls do some pretty dirty things sometimes but the majority of what they do is Artful it is not mimicking sex but if I'm MTV was still a big thing you wanted to turn it on right now I guarantee you just we're getting an eye full of something imitating fucking not dancing. I am very grateful to the European especially the more Eastern Parts like the Russian parts of the music scene. Oh yeah I like physics too but I doubt that you even read all of that so I we'll save that for a different conversation. Thank you and God bless you my friend

    it seems to me the language is just too loaded. "consciousness" in some way presumes embodiment, which is why AI has none but even simple animals do. ironically consciousness is proven by something being able to inflict pain as a response on the observing consciousness. if it werent for this ability, the logical epistemological stance is always solipsism.

    • @youtubebane7036
      @youtubebane7036 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @buglepong I wouldn't say that Consciousness presumes embodiment but what I will say is consciousness presumes subjectivity and movement and change. Consciousness is literally what gives locality to time and space by creating the present moment or now. Nothing else experiences the present moment it might be affected by it but it doesn't actively participate in it like consciousness. Without the present moment you have no locality in time without locality and time you have no locality within space without these things you have no form or matter or growth or any of the other physical phenomenon that happens within time and space. The differentiation of all things must occur what's the time in space and they are themselves a continuum as a whole and the only thing that quantifies it and gives it discreteness is the present moment. They're literally isn't a big bang outside of the present moment. Otherwise space will be seen as getting infinitely smaller the further back you go because it's not just the matter that is compressed to a singularity space itself is shrinking so the space within the matter is shrinking. And the other direction it will expand eternally and never stop. It is a cyclic universe and the revolution in the cycle occurs right on the present moment. This is the place where all dualities are reconciled as well. I have a complete theory of reality that revolves around these ideas and it fits perfectly well with both quantum mechanics and relativity because it is what unites them quantum gravity is literally the present moment while the graviton itself is literally the whole universe. Because we are just a particle in a larger framework and every particle within this universe is in of itself it's very own universe and within every one of them whether it's an infinite density like in a black hole or another type of Singularity like the particles we are made of which are actually the same thing just smaller from a smaller reference frame and there are levels that interlock with each other or even a temporal Singularity like the present moment every one of these things is its own universe density like a singularity and a black hole is literally the exact equivalent to an infinite area or volume because inside of it that's what it is. Or it's potentially infinite because you can't have certain Infinities within space they are like physically impossible so the only way you can have some of these are by having them curl back upon themselves in a feedback loop. This is what limits Gravity from becoming infinite outside of a singularity because otherwise nothing could differentiate from any other thing at all creation would be stuck together so there are boundaries to the singularities because the curvature of space itself causes it to curved back upon itself in a feedback loop get from within it it seems like it's eternally expanding and eternally multiplying but the parts that are multiplying well they are Contracting eternally because while time and space is eternally expanding matter and energy is eternally Contracting and condensing, thanks to gravity this is how Chaos and Order are reconciled because relativity is forever forcing the particles and atoms of quantum mechanics into macroscopic shapes. So although they come from a place of Randomness at least from our favorite reference which is larger and outside of theirs through the joining of Chaos an order through probability they are forced into macroscopic shapes. Kind of like a man shoveling dirt is not keeping track of every grain of sand he is shoveling his only keeping track of each shovel full or perhaps the truckload or wheelbarrow full. That is how quantum mechanics is shaped by relativity by and gravity. Each one of those particles is like individual grains of sand and the the macroscopic forms that they are forced to become are like the the shovel load are the wheelbarrow load are the truck load at each one of these has the same relationship to the one prior. It's like objectivity is just group subjectivity or all of the different subjective realities added together and then averaged out would be objectivity but to its own self it would have a subjective reality larger than that outside of the reality of all the individual subjective reality that it is made from. This is how subjectivity and objectivity are reconciled in Duality as well this is one of the things that gives direction to time and entropy

    It is likely that consciousness is fundamental and that mind emerges with quantum events. Consciousness is definitely not elemental; all else is, so it is definitely fundamental; predating the elemental and quantum events.

      @PhysiKarlz something seems to be interfering with many people in the modern world that is stopping them from thinking logically and rationally about the universe and reality. It's absolutely mind-boggling to me that any person with any brains at all and an education can still be an atheist who follows a materialistic paradigm. I mean the atheist part I can almost understand if they would change the term to agnostic since there are so many different definitions of what God is and what God isn't. But to be a hardcore atheistic materiallist especially in the modern world is the very definition of moronic. It's funny because somehow these people have ended up in the top of the field in almost every area of modern physics and science thanks to their genius abilities at very specific things meaning they are very one track minded and they can do one thing very very good do they end up at the top of their field. Yet they have almost no understanding or knowledge of anything outside of that and did you not see the overall picture or the connections at all. But the thing that is even crazier is the fact that their own mathematics end science and their own empirical experiment has proven conclusively over and over and over again that nothing physical or material exist anywhere in the so-called physical universe, there is nothing that is solid material. It is all emptiness. It is 99.999 the 9s go on forever emptiness and the little tiny bit of whatever it is that it is is not solid material it's just vibrating points of energy and excitations of fields, a vibrating point of force that has no dimensions, and no area or volume, whose mass if it has any is assigned to it from an outside force(the higgs field). In other words, it's all information or data. So how can these morons still be considered smart, while they continue to cling to the materialistic paradigm, that is and has long been, a conclusively proven falsehood? I'll tell you exactly how it's happening it's the dunning-kruger effect. Since this started out as a battle between religion and science which should have never happened as they are completely mutually compatible, in fact they are exactly the same thing, fundamentally, or they should be, they used to be. But since the Christian Church made up a bunch of Lies created from mythology and esoteric writings and scripture and their own evil and lust for power and greed, all scientists completely moved away from anything that has to do with spirituality and religion and this unfortunately included very logical scientific and obvious forces and causes in the natural world like consciousness mind and information. In other words they threw the baby out with the bathwater. And it has since become fashionable for want to be Scholars do Styles themselves as atheist because of the complete ass whooping they have given Christianity over things like evolution in the age of the Earth and many other things that are in every case nothing but low-hanging fruit as the Christians themselves or at least the ones gullible enough to completely believe this hogwash we're up until that point the most moronic people to walk to Earth.

      @youtubebane7036 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @PhysiKarlz So now it is automatically assumed that if you are an atheist you are smart by many many people in the world today. Not only do they assume that atheist just have to be smart just because they're atheist there is an arrogance that comes with this as well and that is why you get terms like woo being used all the time and you never see any direct debunking a refuting of anything. There is never any argument or debate get some idiot who thinks he's smart labeling something as woo even though if you want to get down to it you could look at any branch of science especially physics today even the most materialistic kind and you find all kinds of things that are created out of thin air to explain things they don't understand like dark matter and dark energy or Einstein's cosmological constant that was his biggest blunder. Anytime a physicist comes across something they can't explain they just make something up out of thin air and as long as it has nothing to do with mind or Consciousness it's accepted it seems. And even though visit is miraculous in a very empirical and demonstrable way insomnia areas the least of which being quantum physics and relativity. We have so many things in the modern world today that 200 years ago people would have told you you were crazy or you are a sorcerer or a witch if you were to tell them about them. There are so many unseen forces like radio waves and electricity and microwaves and there are so many Marvels that we have discovered in chemistry and biology yet for some reason even though you have a version of it in your own mind people like you have a hard time realizing admitted and understanding that Consciousness and mind are just as fundamental and important as any other force of nature or fundamental law. You'll gladly except dark energy, the many world's interpretation and the multiverse, but not the very thing you use to make that determination. Tachyons, black holes, worm holes and singularities are just fine, but not the very thing allowing you to think about them. So even though your life is full of non-physical phenomenon and forces and in totality is completely 100% non-physical, and science mathematics and empirical experimental evidence has proven over and over and over conclusively that this is the case you still call Consciousness woo and hold to your materialistic Paradigm like a fool. I mean this is so far beyond foolish I don't even know the word to describe it. But the thing that is really really hilarious about this is because of your arrogant that comes from being an atheist and the dunning-kruger effect that keeps you from realizing how dumb you actually are because you're too dumb to know that, you still think you're smart for some reason just because you could spell the word woo! Let me give you some advice, if you're going to open your mouth at all, why don't you actually give a real argument or rebuttal, or do an actual debunking, instead of just typing woo, as if somehow that makes you smart and the winner of a debate? Because until you do you were just going to prove how dumb atheists are and how incapable atheists are of abstract thought as they are stuck in a completely materialistic and physical Newtonian Paradigm and can't even imagine or comprehend the fact that the Universe and reality is far more and far beyond any physical Paradigm that there ever could be because even if there was a material Universe it would still have to have a foundation and something that gave it form and shaped it whether or not the matter and energy and such came from there it's still must be shaped informed in differentiated in all the laws of nature and all of these things must have some kind of system and source. You don't get meaning out of nothing. There is no way that all of these very very intricate and complicated laws of nature and all of the physical values and constants in the universe and the way all of the forces operate and the way all of the different particles operate and the way relativity operates and time and gravity and all of that there's no way that that stuff could have just Arisen out of nowhere on its own dude that is completely impossible anyone with any kind of brain should realize that. And that is since there's nothing material in existence and even if there was there would still need to be information instructing it on how to behave and what to do. In fact fundamentally everything is just information. Cuz that is the only way you can get something from nothing. Because it actually still is nothing. If maximum entropy was to become Universal and heat death what to occur all the matter in space with evaporate and then space itself would as well because they are codependent upon each other. So basically everything there is is just a kind of movement. That's what Consciousness is at its most basic fundamental level. That is why I stress the difference between Consciousness and mind. Mind is more like memory or a database or or something akin to that and it's not subjectively focused on the present moment and movement and change and Consciousness literally has to have those things to exist. Mind is the objective field of information that not only describes the universe but it creates it and is the universe and all reality even beyond that, while Consciousness is the other side of the coin the subjective have of information that is focused upon a singular point and is a constant movement in motion because it is consciousness that is recording this information upon the fabric of reality or the fabric of mind. I always say it like this God is all knowing but even God had to learn the things that God knows because God him or herself or itself cannot break the laws of reality. God might be Supernatural in be able to do mini impossible things are what we would consider impossible get God cannot break the laws of reality. So that being said not even God or reality itself and that is what God is can be all knowing without learning all of those things. The information that describes the universe and the laws of nature and gives it existence had to be recorded and created somehow. It had to be learned and recorded upon the fabric a reality. And as a unity and a Continuum which is what the infinite reality is without differentiation cannot continue with an infinite number or Multiplicity. No matter how big God is no matter how long the universe might exist it cannot deal with an infinite multiplicity as a Unity or a singularity so it must divide itself into an infinite number of finite units so it can match up one on one perfectly. Time and space is an illusion so this is happening at all times and all places instantaneously and simultaneously everywhere. That's how quantum entanglement really works. The information is not traveling through time and space because it is time and space and everything within it is in constant communication with every other thing there is at all times in an instantaneous simultaneous fashion that's kind of holographic in one sense but it's not a mear image, and it's not data that is written upon the boundaries of three-dimensional space from a higher Dimension because it comes from Beyond time and space. But time and space themselves are equally important and fundamental to existence because without them there would be no place for the differentiation of physical things to occur so the unity could never differentiate into a multiplicity without time and space being there to give it a place to occur. It is consciousness that allows us to happen by giving locality to time and space and giving discreteness and quantifying a continuum. The present moment literally is quantum gravity and Consciousness is what create it to a large part although it does not act alone as all things are codependent upon everything else for their own existence. Everything is codependent and causal to everything else like an infinite feedback loop. So I'm not a physicist or a mathematician myself but I have spent a large percentage of my life steady and these things in learning as much about them as I can and I've spent equal amount of time learning every esoteric and spiritual wisdom tradition but I can as well like hermetic Buddhist and Hindu philosophy as well as all the Western Traditions I can get my mind on. And I haven't neglected the hardcore religions like Christianity and Islam and Judaism either because although they seem very simple minded or or intended for simple-minded people and false they are actually the containers of some of the deepest truths there are but they are hidden behind a wall of allegory metaphor and symbolism that goes far beyond the common metaphors that you hear talked about in Sunday school which are almost completely confined to a moral and ethical teachings while there are deeper levels that go all the way to the most fundamental roots of existence and these things have been hidden inside of Mythology and wisdom teachings since prehistory. They are encoded into all of our art and especially the megalithic structures and the ancient pyramids and structures of the ancient civilizations and their artwork. So to conclude, if you want woo I suggest you go read skeptic magazine or go listen to a speech from Richard Dawkins or Daniel Dennett or better yet just get a spoon and stick it in your ear I'm sure you'll get a hole spoonful of woo from what's in between your ears because the only thing there is that is dumber than a Christian, is an atheist. God bless you. Oops I mean go bless yourself!

    4:47 "An organism has conscious mental states if and only if there is something that it's like to _be_ that organism". There is something askew in that statement. Paraphrasing: An organism is conscious if and only if that organism sustains what I mean by 'a self'. 7:00 Brain is to Mind as Moon is to its shimmering reflection. The mind exists in a way analogous to the way a reflection exists. 7:46 The key to figuring it out lies in the fact that sense organs transduce impinging environmental energies into neuro discharge timing pattern encoded *representation* (NDTPER) of those energies. Hypothetically: These NDTPERs modulate upstream NDTPERs which in turn modulate more upstream others until eventually the NDTPER which is the self is being modulated. The self being modulated IS the self being conscious. The self stops being conscious when a process prevents this modulation. The 'hard problem' is to discover which neurons are responsible. (I suspect the above may belong in the realm of neurophenomenology). (Having just now read the Wiki on Neurophenomenology my suspicion was warranted.). 12:45 Indeed, when I was young I was absolutely certain life depended on a magic spark. After high school physics, chemistry and biology dispelled my ignorance I felt a great embarrassment in regard to my previous absurd profound certainty, an embarrassment that to this day still nudges me to say, "hypothetically", after most assertions.
