Today we’ll be discussing the different ways we tend to experience the world from the perspective of left and right brain processes. Our guest today is Dr. Chris Niebauer, a cognitive neuropsychologist who is a tenured professor at Slippery Rock University in Pennsylvania where he teaches courses on consciousness, mindfulness, left and right brain differences, and artificial intelligence. He is the author of The Neurotic's Guide to Avoiding Enlightenment: How the Left-Brain Plays Unending Games of Self-Improvement and his most recent and popular No Self No Problem - How Neuropsychology Is Catching Up To BUDDHISM
In this groundbreaking book, he writes that the latest research in neuropsychology is now confirming a fundamental tenet of Buddhism, what is called Anatta, or the doctrine of “no self.” Niebauer writes that our sense of self, or what we commonly refer to as the ego, is an illusion created entirely by the left side of the brain. He had found this Buddhist-neuroscience connection when he was a student in the early 1990s,, but since then, this connection has practically become its own genre in bookstores. Today, Niebauer admits that we’re just beginning to scratch the surface on the link between Eastern philosophy and the latest findings in psychology and neuroscience and what this really means for the human experience.
Please help welcome Dr. Chris Niebauer.
A conversation full of wisdom and common sense. Thank you
Paraphrasing De Niebauer I would say that “reality” is something you can’t describe using thought reasoning or language, but is something that you feel, perceive and intuit every single day in the few moments our mind is “free of self”
Gratitude 🙏
Paradoxes you are talking about at 1:03:00 seem strange but it's just reality as it is... both wave and matter... superposition of states... does that make sense? yes? no? I am a man with a brain made of matter but I am "immaterial" consciousness as well. this paradox is what makes life so interesting! Thank you both, great interview!
GREAT chat, thank you both!!
Superb!
The brain is a transmitter for consciousness has nothing to do with non duality 😂 non duality is like a fire where all ideas are logs, it won’t leave you with any conclusions or meaning
