  • We've hit 10K subscribers to our channel, thanks so much! As a small thank you, in this video we discuss your questions with the director of Essentia Foundation, Bernardo Kastrup. It gets pretty wild as the conversation will range from the consciousness of bacteria, to our minds being 'time traveling machines,' to Hans asking Bernardo if Eve performed the first quantum measurement when she ate the apple. Also: why is meditation, literally speaking, an egoistic thing to do? Did Job suffer more than Jesus? And, this one is personal for Bernardo: what is the real danger of idealism if life hits you really hard?

    I've come from a Christian worldview. When I lost my son last year, I could no longer accept belief based upon words from a book. There was a disconnect. I have spent much time seeking a knowing thru my own experience, allowing life to teach me, not seeking outside of myself. Under Idealisum, I've learned how my experience is my teacher, not words from others or a book. Life is a gift that when I'm in touch with my experience, I can and have learned much. Thank you for the work done. I will do my part to share this work with my community.❤ much love

      This was beautiful, thank you for posting it. I come from a similar situation, with regard to Christianity. I have not lost someone extremely close to me like you have yet, but I am thankful that I found idealism prior to that. The suffering that losing a son could impart would likely crush me, without the intrinsic meaning I have found through this philosophical understanding.

      Hello from u.k.
      My dad was a journeyman bricklayer, born in 1909
      and passed 1993.
      He lost his first wife to cancer when he was 21 she was 10 yrs older than him.
      What faith he had he lost, when she passed he ziggzagged the u.k.
      Working, then met mum in 1950.
      He spent time off on his travels in local libraries, instead of bars.
      Never mentioned religion or politics at home ever not even once!
      I’m 66 now, and never think about religion, and the only
      reason I look into politics is because we are in a mess globally!
      Just goes how your parents can influence you.
      I was in my early 20s, reading a weighty tome almost
      Certain it was Nietzsche .
      And dad said, what are you reading son?
      I told him and he said, ok but what are you going to do with it?
      Take care from
      U.k.

    I love Bernardo Kastrup's mind and how he thinks and articulates his thinking... the language he uses and his philosophical and scientific radical and inspiring insights. But in this interview I was really touched by his wisdom and sensitivity. His reflection on the notion of sacrifice and the egoistic attempt of humans of wanting to be free of suffering is spot on. It's so liberating to know it's not my aim and up to me to end my personal suffering...how not accepting life and suffering as part of life creates more suffering. I'm really grateful he shared such a vulnerable personal story to talk about his shift in narrative around personal suffering and renewed peace ❤btw...The Cure is my favourite band!!😊

    It was only eight or nine years ago when I asked Bernardo if he would do a podcast with Evita Ochell so he's come a long way in a short time and people are now beginning to take idealism seriously. I tell friends who are interested to read Dreamed Up Reality First as I feel it's a gentle introduction to Idealism. I hope everything continues to grow it's always been obvious to me that Materialism is taking us down to a dead end.
    I remember telling Bernardo about a video on here called 'Digital Physics Argument for
    God's Existence' is very good as its conclusion is we are all immersed in the Mind at Large.
    I do hope one day BK writes a book about Bishop George Berkley and of course, the news that physicists were awarded the Nobel Prize last year for showing that the universe is not locally real supports Idealism.
    Well done to Bernardo, Fred and everyone working at Essentia I hope the next eight years will be as exciting and encourage everyone to support it in any way they can.

    It‘s not only the Tinnitus that brings me very much in tune with Bernardo. My natural science socialization, disturbed by ‘annoyingly disturbing and blissful experiences’ that came from ‘nowhere’ and which I only learned over the years to understand and integrate into my life. This made me tumble through eastern traditions, tumble into Plotinus and Spinoza - all in search to find safety belts helping me to explain what I experienced. Bernardo is a big help to satisfy my rational approaches, while Rupert Spira puzzles me with his unbelievable clarity. Thank you and bless you guys.

  • @cassidylhd
    @cassidylhd 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +20

    I really relate to Bernardo's struggles with meditation and attainment of altered states without any intermediary factors. His "hard-headedness", as he puts it, is what has made his work so accessible to me. So although I know it must frustrate you endlessly, thank you for being this way, Bernardo!

    • @crimsonguy723
      @crimsonguy723 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      It's why I love his discussions with Rupert Spira. Rupert is coming from the exact opposite perspective (religion, art, etc). After watching some of them on YT, I read Ruperts' Nature of Consciousness and it resonated with my more than any other spiritual book that I've read. I love that they are besties and hang out, lol, that thought makes me happy.

      Struggles with meditation diminish with the proper methods. Access "Mahamritunjaya mantra - Sacred Sounds Choir" Listen to it for 2 min per day for at least two weeks. In due time you will transcend the mind altogether; at first for a short period of time that lengthens with more practice. (until nonduality is continuous).

    • @yifuxero9745
      @yifuxero9745 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This method will be helpful: Access "Mahamritunjaya mantra - Sacred Sounds Choir". Listen to it for 2 min per day for at least two weeks. In due time you will transcend thought and enter into the non-dual state of Pure Consciousness.

    I love to hear Kastrup explore these concepts. I keep hearing him describe psychedelics as reducing or impairing brain activity. Is Bernardo familiar with Selen Atasoy and her research on connectome harmonics and LSD? It suggests that the vocabulary of connectome harmonics (geometrical standing wave patterns across the brain's connectome) increases significantly, akin to how a jazz musician improvises in a variety of spontaneous, yet not arbitrary ways. The interconnectedness of these brain cymatics in regions of the brain that usually do not connect as often seem to go against the notion of psychedelics working "only" through reducing the brain's perceptual filtering or activity 🤔 Would love to hear his take on this more musical perspective on brain activity, it is quite ground breaking ✨

    My tinnitus, after 5 decades, it really does blend into the background sometimes and I have learned to fall asleep by giving it competition from blizzards, crackling fires, thunderstorms, and all nights train rides, thanks to the internet. I’d rather have that then constant migraines like some of my friends experience. ❤

    @AriRuuska 9 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Comment about suffering (relates to discussion starting around 1:34:40). In my experience suffering end didn't mean the end of metacognition. I have chronic pain (rheumatic) and I have suffered a lot because of infections and pain. Then something happened. I call it perspective change. Now I'm all the time aware of "that which knows" and I'm watching life from there. After that, the pain has been a teacher, and I have learned so much from that. I have still pain but now it's like a dear friend of mine and even more. I'm grateful that I have had an opportunity to "spend time with the teacher". Also, pain doesn't touch my happiness in any way. I'm happy now with this painful situation. So, I don't think that the end of suffering ends anything beneficial for nature. It's the opposite I think. 😊

    Bernardo, I don’t mean to sound hyperbolic, but you are a Job/Christ-like figured for me and undoubtedly countless others. I can only begin to convey how drastically your intellectual framing of idealism has transformed every facet of my life and perspective. I can only offer a pale reflection of your intellect, but I’ve begun to share your insights with others; I have no doubt many others are doing the same. Because of you, I sense the Truth is spreading-and it is all the grace of the suffering that led you to become the head of the Essentia Foundation and produce a mountain of invaluable content. Thank you for your sacrifice. I hope one day I have a chance to thank you in person.

    Thank you so much! This discussion was very beneficial, despite none of the content being new to me. Upon reflecting upon why I felt so struck, I realized that it is the absence of animosity and arrogance.
    During years of puzzling, I have stitched together a patchwork of understanding, seemingly from disparate cloths, each asserting their definitive wholeness or perfection, despite gaping holes or flaws being apparent. So my experience has been painstaking, laborious, full of humble doubt and frustration. A seeming imperative to endlessly educate myself sufficiently in vastly different domains before I'm adequately equipped to accept and integrate whatever may be valid from that domain and to confidently leave on the cutting floor where it has veered off from reality because of some fundamental error that replicates exponentially.
    So many conversations seem like battles to destroy or capture the other, to convert them. Or like a guru/disciple in which the guru is assumed infallible, with the disciple gullibly submitting to the guru's words notwithstanding that they obviously are not (perhaps not yet) the disciple's actual experience.
    So I very much appreciated the cooperative and collaborative tone of this dialogue. Because there were no sides, my mind was not provoked into picking sides as I listened. That made it very easy to cooperate and collaborate too. And many things I KNEW but could not claim to feel genuinely took root. So very grateful!
    There is no physical person currently in my life with whom I can cooperate and collaborate to explore these questions. So I'm grateful for these virtual realities where I feel at home.

    Hey Hans and Bernardo! I must agree with Hans that I don't really understand all of Bernardo's thinking! Even though I have quite a bit in common with Bernardo in that I lived in Rio for my first 17 years of life, have quite severe tinnitus, and worked in IT support (not at his level) for most of my working life! haha! My "natural" perception of nature inhibits my understanding of Analytical Idealism. Somehow, the sharp, real, solid, easily manipulated world of "materialism", becomes somewhat unreal, ephemeral, when I imagine stars, chemicals, rocks and tools as objects created within consciousness or fields of subjectivity! Am I missing something here? Thanks for your great work guys! 🌿

    Excellent interview. We need more.❤️
    More questions for BK:
    If we fold metacognition upon itself, can it cause a temporary untangle (or cessation of metacognition) to reveal a glimpse of the underlying substrate in a more basic form?
    The motivation for thinking thus is that metacognition is itself a product of super convolution or layering of underlying substrate.

    I was excited late last night, when I was reading over an article on agents that combat cardio toxicity and, about a third of the way into the article, in a table that enumerated the different agents, was bottle brush!
    Bottle brush is a tree that produces wonderful vibrant red flowers with amazing fiber optic like "petals" arranged in a brush form. By chance a bottle brush is located just below the steps that descend to our bungalow. Exited by the data I harvested the leaves and threw them into my dehydrator after washing them throughly and now eagerly await the dry time so I can I give the stuff a go.

    1. Is context the creation of possibilities or, in othrr words, experiences and concepts in the screen of perception?
    2. Does each rise of a different context creates different perceptions or realities?
    3. Because of the rise of metacognition context, I am the size of what I see, and not of my physical tall.
    4. Is the dissociation process the fundamental context to create meta cognition?
    5. Causality and time: the analogy of Alan Watts is very usefull.

A question: How is an insight (learned by us in our disassociated state and released into nature when we die) experienced as an insight or 'is a knowing' by nature if nature is not metaconscious? Or, how does 'Nature' know? How is that insight held by Nature once we have un-disassociated? (died)

    # Precognition:
    When I was 18, I dreamed of a close 20-years old friend's fatal swimming accident the night before! At first I didn't attach much importance to this dream, but in the evening, when Friedemann had succumbed to his hypoxia, my mother reminded me of the dream that I had told her in the morning... simply because it was so crazy...

    Sir Arthur Eddington also wrote in philosophy of science. In his book The Nature of the Physical World he argued that materialism had been conclusively overthrown with the development of relativity and, even more importantly, quantum physics, and that the only viable alternative was a form of idealism.

    Absolutely Outstanding Q&A! And finally someone clearly explaining quantum field fluctuations as particles! Freaking physicists use quantum fields as some kind of "barrier to entry"...
    And kudos on all the microbio discussion, can't wait to see Hans' new Doc! Given a sufficiently complex microbial community could metacognition emerge? When you add electrogenics and magnetotactics into the mix the syntrophy becomes much more than just chemical interaction and it is known that any and all biofilms use electric potentials to communicate with themselves. Perhaps a plastic or naked consciousness, an almost "alien" form of metacog? The disassociative boundary weakens greatly without a dedicated perceptual system, internal modeling system and cultural lens. Thus "naked" consciousness, not dissimilar from the "afterlife" hehe My hypothesis is that an advanced form of consciousness could have evolved long before multicellularity given a sufficiently exotic biofilm makeup and equally exotic environment. Ancient primordial consciousness(s) such as this might account for what most refer to as the "paranormal". Any thoughts? Wouldn't it be fascinating if our first contact with non-human intelligence had been here all along, the true custodians of this planet?

    The fact that Bernado can make peace with tinnitus, which is one of my greatest fears, gives me courage to face the difficult parts of life. I don't know if I would take my life if it happened to me, I would definitely consider it but I hope I'd be able to endure the suffering and find peace with it as he has.

    The difficulty of analytical idealism is that it is quite counterintuitive. I was about to end listening to its explanation when its beauty hit me and it dawned on me. Thats why it will probably be a long road especially because of the incredible intellectual laziness these days.

    We live all the time outside of time as far I know. “Now” is not moving through the time it’s ever present. Constant change plus our capability to remember plus metacognition creates time, right? What does BK means by that sentence, would be lovely to hear. 😊 Or maybe I’m asking the “wrong question”. 😅
