As a 21 year old, I feel very grateful to see the Internet being used for this type of things, seeing professionals and wise people from older generations starting to speak about these issues, even if that many times means they can lose their reputation or even their job. I wish us, the younger generations, can follow your legacy and be the ones to shift the paradigm... I don't think it's impossible, as my generation has overall been raised in a more non-material environment (videos, Internet, videogames, hearing about simulation theories... I'd say we've engaged more with the Internet and information than with the material/physical world). The amount of people my age I've met who think "the material world is just one layer of reality but there's definitely more than just it" is pretty huge I'd say, but not enough. I just wish there were more people from my generation watching this kind of videos.
It doesn't matter. The next generation is AI, not zoomers. Zoomers are the first generation of humans who will contribute nothing to the world, because AI will do everything.
How you know this is the good kind of debate is because the participants are delighted to hear the reasoning of those who disagree, because everyone wins. Their hope for the discussion is an advancement of knowledge and not an elevation of their ego, or the furthering of a narrative they wish to establish.

One of my favourite days of my life was after years of playing guitar, one day i was improvising a guitar solo with a band and i realised i was hearing the music i was going to play before i played it whilst playing in time with the other band members, it was such a cool paradigm shift for my brain.
I heard he’s favourite was called Sophie; figures… if only he hadn’t of been that weirdly familiar and as short as me…amazing how youth blinds people to their future or the lack of it, god knows what young peoples sensibilities would be like if money really did grow on trees, particularly in todays age of mass consumption…where is stimulus & value formulated. I suppose as a teenager, socialising with people with interests in science and the creative fields, invention, food algorithms or making your own radios out of components meant a lot of interests; never recognising these traits as mildly on the spectrum didn’t prepare me for the world of tin can sustenance and wind in the willows gossip and libel whispers from which I’m quite sorely sour and inpinged yet isolated by. It really is quite strange to watch people paint portraits of grotesque Loch Ness monster type creatures. I wonder if there was no internet, if it would even be possible to be a stranger in the community…yet ‘online’ appears a weapon in the arsenal for many people of honesty, time and time again; only yesterday I heard my sister say she was dreading the return of her father to her house, like a strategy and hindrance I’d never known, a portrait i didn’t personally recognise even…how really very peculiar.
Of course, they’d have to be a potential escape room machine, to have the patience to sit through an entire scan of Jayne aire, since there’s no metaphorical second flaw window and porch roof to climb out of the social mechanical lock-in. I notice however that there is an issue with sustenance and stimulus for the mind outside of oneselves and one’s own ability to create stimulus & wonderment, measuring culture & supply. All the knives I see are of dreams and fantasies of oneself being different to what one wishes and expects; although knowingly sounding like a job for a psychologist, my response/reaction to what sounds like a 50 year old posing as a teenage joke could clearly be misconstrued… and since no one wants to admit their foibles and vanities openly I could easily smell a potential noose. Maybe it’s the drug of feeling superior to humanity or another human being of lesser means and lesser tools which proves the hardest cycle to break. But then as a person speaking on the internet, because I apparently don’t speak any form of tangible English language, I suppose my tools are far inferior to the death of a truthful sense of humanity and it’s aptitude to generate power, prestige and impressiveness. I assure you my attraction to the comment was purely from a comedic enthusiasm and not to zealously predate on any youth to self medicate any missing gaps in my own impeded life experience.
Exactly! You’ve thought of your stoned self, with the mind in the state of stoned, with your present non-stoned captured by both present self time and the future self time outside the mechanism of this state. Your species present just explained with our presences (the readers of your comment) who read and also understand the states you explained. Your experience of time has no distinction of your past, and your future and we all understood it! 😆😂 Time is the multiplayer.
@@CatsInHats-S.CrouchingTiger You're making me light one up too 🤣 I will sum up what you said the best I can, tell me if I got it right: The brain is physical yet the mind is non-physical thus allowing humans to explore past and future selves. The body is anchored in the present moment but it can receive and feel past and future sensations/emotion(pain for example).
@@SandNebula232 you can have them with me - that person can not have those types of conversations because THESE types of discussions aren’t those types of discussions. This is wrong :)
I adore the dedication of a couple of hours of 'time' to explore and play and oscillate a bit with the notions and concepts of this complexity and not seek, or strive to oversimplify it into a few minutes and a few small sound bytes.
Absolutely gorgeous Philosophy, physics and Psychology will soon connect with the endeavors in arts. Honoring the lineair worthlessness of words and still searching for the perhaps simplest secrets of our experiences (if we see words as a tool to touch reality with). In the end, transitioning from “either or thinking” I am convinced that the present harnesses every possible concept. Once Consciousness focuses on experiencing time, this allows us to experience potential field energies and particle energy simultaneously, which allows us to transfer idea into matter and vice versa. Fundamentally, conscious experience coinciding with what we call time is flow and timelessness at the same time.

I lived in a electricity free environment for nine months in a redwood forest. Just propane and fire wood. No watch or clock. In the first two months I noticed subtle changes. My thoughts began to rhyme. Then I seemed to have no thoughts bouncing around in my head. I got up as soon as the sun came up over the nearby mountains and was in bed and sound asleep within a half hour after it went down. I got to where I could easily know the time of day by inflections in the light. When I had to move back into the city I was appalled by electric light and hated clocks. My forest stay was the most at peace I've ever been.

When I first heard Bernardo speak on Idealism and his trek out of the Materialist Mindset... It was like encountering a pool of clear, cool water in the desert. And each point and distinction revealed a kinship of Conscious Experience that resonated and supported my unique experiences to this point in Life. Then, while exploring Bernardo's sharings, that led to the work of Bernard Carr... which was like finding a feast arrayed in the shade of beautiful tree at that Oasis.
THE BEST CHANNEL I EVER SUBSCRIBED TO!!! This is absolutely mind-blowing! This is a golden moment! It is so great to know that this topic is being acknowledged and actually evolving because as Bernard Carr has stated... Physics need to advance and its almost inevitable that it Will Advance! This episode was priceless. I love your team and I look forward to seeing Even more great discussions. 🙏❤️
This was a GREAT discussion! Thank you all! It's great to see the work progressing into deeper and deeper conversations rather than surface discussions. This is how paradigms are shifted and created!
Just imagine a mountain valley that got completely cut off from the world and has the strange metrological phenomenon of being fully in fog 365 days a year. There are some ‘religions’ in this valley, believing in a blue sky but the philosophers and scientists of this valley are debating and debating, many ‘proofing’ that his blue is just an emerging phenomenon of fog. Then imagine, someone leaning the art of climbing and succeeding to actually see the blue sky. This climber (mystic) would have a very hard time when returning and joining the discussions of the scientific elite of this metaphorical valley. Having experienced blue sky or having NOT experienced blue sky makes a big difference. According to my experience, there comes the point in every journey for understanding reality, where you need to learn how to climb and take the risk to leave the discussion table of reasoning and start your first person experiment.
I've come to the conclusion that materialism/physicalism/scientism is just intellectual conservatism that maintains the status quo. It's not hard for us to imagine putting a sentient ai (which may or may not happen at some point, but this is just a thought experiment) in an advanced simulation, with no knowledge of the outside world, trained with a strict physicalist/materialist world view. It would be fun to know how a strict physicalist/materialists would feel if it was his job to convince the ai that his world view could be off. I know it wouldn't really be a hard job, because the ai lacks ego like ours and it's not trying to protect the status quo.
I am at this exact point in my journey. I can only have conversations with my imagination as no one in my family or friendship circle wants to have anything to do with my questions or answers. I however, just answered one of my own questions : Is this awareness or just delusion? The synchronicity of this YT conversation as well as your comment, allowed me to move forward and upward, beyond the valley of fog. I don't know exactly when I started my own first person experiment, but it must have been many years ago as I have felt a lonely-ness for a long time. This is why I seek out conversations in the comment section. YT lately, deletes everything I post regardless of what I type.
Love seeing these discussions without ego taking over. Well spoken and easy to digest. Haven't looked at the rest of your content, but if its half this conversation you got my sub. Look forward to seeing more, thank you
I am exactly 4:15 in and was already blown away by what I was hearing, and then you cut to the start of the interview and it finally hit me. I clicked on a interview not a quick video and I got very excited. Instant subscriber !
And lastly, (sorry for ranting) @44:31 it reminds me of Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit." I always try and clarify this debate by using the analogy, "That which sees you through my eyes, is the same as to that which sees me through yours." Meaning, that the supreme consciousness that dwells within all things, is in and of itself, all of those things. We are just coming to the state of awareness that allows us to rationally understand and experience this. In Lak’ech Ala K’in "I am another yourself" "I AM, is my name forever and ever" there are many instances of this understanding in ancient mystical texts
It is possible to experience the past, present, and future, and to be everyone else that you see in front of you simultaneously. I have had this experience where I felt I was the people I saw in front of me: mother and child, the dog and the dog walker, even the blade of grass. Objects lose their distinguishing elements as subjective awareness takes over. While the experience is exhilarating and blissful, it is very difficult to function in today’s world while in that state. For one thing, the blood pressure drops uncontrollably, and the bliss even becomes painful. From a Kashmiri Shaivite perspective, Consciousness and the illusory world are symbolized in the iconic figure of Shiva as the Cosmic Dancer. His immovable, vertical axis represents pure Consciousness (associated with Shiva), while the horizontal axis exemplified by his whirling limbs represents time, space, and movement (associated with his Shakti, energy), which is the world of illusion. Everything exists, all at once, as pure potential within Shiva Consciousness. The world, from the viewpoint of individual consciousness, is a dispersed fragment of the whole. To experience you being me is a higher state accessible through surrendering the individual I-consciousness. This involves the collapse of the barriers of the individual’s sphere of the mind. Thank you for this valuable discussion.
Your description, and subsequent organized formulation of a distinct structure to these fundamental concepts, is both elegant and encompassing. I too believe as you do in everything you've described concerning perspective, consciousness, potential, oneness, movement through the one existence of everything and our individual viewpoint in it. I ask you though, if what you described is the case, to consider this question: Why?
@@natashanandini To avoid confusion. My question Why is not asking why you believe this. It is asking, if your holistic comprehension, your divine understanding is true and manifest. I believe it is... Have you after reaching, accepting, incorporating this definition, came to wonder why such an understanding should come into existence? What reason does existence have to contain such a pure description of itself so real within and around you?
Hello, can anyone elaborate on what Bernard was speaking about at 1:30:00? If we remove their identities and look at them as atoms occupying space like galaxies in the vastness of space, that's a beautiful picture but Bernard is an identity because those atoms are organized, have attractions and functions. How can it be argued that they are one in the same in any dimension or scale? What function does this idea have in physics? What are the implications
1:39:00 - When pondering upon the modi of time.... what about the expierence of space sections, "spaciousness"? I would like to know if you know about the work of Hermann Schmitz, who declared philosophic themes such as Atmospheres, "Leiblichkeit", feelings as half things. He just died in 2021. Thank you for recording this interesting conversation.
Well done to all participants and thank you for this video. It is refreshing to witness a respectful and well-reasoned discussion. It did however occur to me that in coming to an understanding and answers to the key points raised, it is perhaps essential and helpful to first define what is meant by: 1. "Mind" 2. "You" and 3. "I". Who (or what) is it that is asking the questions and who (or what) is it that is aware of the very points that are under discussion? Once the answers to those questions are understood, the discussion perhaps points to some deeper understandings.
Regarding Smolin: as I understand, he thinks reality is truly temporal, so there is real introduction of novelty. The future is open, not already given. The present is special because that's where real dynamics are, where real action is. But it's not a static present, as in certain idealism (which conceives time as illusory and "true reality" as eternal or atemporal hence "static"). It's rather an ever changing present, truly dynamic. So in that regard he's quite close to Bergson’s view, which I summarised in my previous comment.
Brilliant conversation! Superb! I learned a lot! I love the analogy that was used during the topic about Alex Gomez Marin's presentation 'The Consciousness of Neuroscience'. Marin mocks the notion that the mind is what the brain does by pointing out that time isn't just what the clock does. Bravo! 👏🏻😄👌🏻
I love that Bernard Carr insists on the spiritual aspect in his model. It is consistent with many esoteric traditions. I love the show, I just wish there were fewer interruptions/ads. A great show though. 💝
Yes Agreed! Hoffman would really round it all out, his work is amazing. But the aspect that strikes me the most is that all these disciplines are now pointing to the same jump in our understanding. That the dimension of consciousness is real, and the Universe is fundamentally a mind. Blows me away!.
The Chan/Zen Buddhism tradition has been discussing mind/experience for millennia. Eihei Dogen Zenji's Shobogenzo essay 'Uji' (being-time) is exactly some of what is discussed here. Also the Lankavatara sutra explicitly clarifies these questions of mind, time, being , self etc. I hear Bernardo say things that seem to be modern translation of such writings (in a more scientific language of course) and I smile, because I feel that it is spot on! Bernard's hierarchy of consciousness resonates with me too. I think of it as 'fractal' consciousness, where complex systems will have a sense of experiencial 'self' although not necessarily cling to it (it seems that is a very human problem!) Very fascinating discussion, thank you for bringing us such a professional, academic and constructive talk!
Exactly this. Ancient texts, Western Tradition, Vedanta, and other fringe philosophers of the occult have been describing what these academics are now discussing, and although I'm happy it finally reaches a bigger audience, I can't help but cringe inside when they cite that some philosopher from 25 years ago coining some basic concept of mind, which was being discussed and practised in rituals for THOUSANDS of years... like wtf academics, do first sources not matter to you?!
This so my jam! Wish I was sitting at the table in real time. Please have another round where Bernardo is able to expand on his idea about solving the third metaphysical (decomposition) problem with a multi-dimensional model of time. He first brought up this specific point in this video around minute 30, and then again later in the interview but unfortunately wasn’t able to elaborate further at either time because of getting interrupted. I understand Bernard’s multi-dimensional view of time and how it relates, but Bernardo said the decomposition problem solution has to do with mind talking to itself across different timelines, which sounds somewhat distinct from the hierarchical time scales in Bernard’s model. Please do another video where Bernardo is able to speak more about how he is personally thinking of the solution to the decomposition problem! I really think he is onto something! (And Bernard too, of course…his model is intuitively spot on for me.)
@@jono77you just don’t want to make your connection. However, we can all connect to the understanding of the message if we lock into our own experience of the Unity.
@@larseriksson1184hmm. what if time is as put on a loop, in a circular path, and it’s just always existed and always will. How would we not be able to get here? Just because there’s not an origin point?
Note to self. This is not the type of conversation you can listen to- whilst painting a room-and walk away with any degree of understanding. The quality of information is far too dense for casual listening 😅
It's truly the Best. As you did retain it subconsciously. So you got the best and no questioning judgement. Whoop whoop ❤ actually the best way hehe. Amazing
This is a fascinating and interesting discussion! But I wonder, have any of these physicists, philosophers or psychologists ever practiced and learned how to abide in complete mental stillness, ie. "no mind"? It seems to me the great mystics throughout history have had definitive experiences of what the panel is talking about. They have described how to learn to abide in this space and they have attempted to describe the indescribable by telling us what it is not. I think that experience would inform the opinions of these experts significantly!
It's true, and sadly academics's won't ever describe the indescribable, because any description must always negate a part of the whole, which is the foundation of Idealism.
I have been considering this for quite some time now, and I would say that my understanding is become sufficiently refined. I am ready to start asking the bigger questions. If only i could find someone to ask them to who can relate to them and help me consider/develop them. Based on the understanding that existence is probabalistic in nature. I am developing a model to describe and discover an understanding for how mind interacts with the landscape of time dimensions in the probability field which spans all spacetime.
I agree we live in multi-dimensional spaces. When I observe my individual self I cannot see the oneness of all, but when I experience expanded consciousness I experience the ones of the all!
Bernardo explained a research about precognition . I checked but could not find any research. Does someone know where this research was published and who carried this out. Thanks
From time to time I very reluctantly tell the story of my four year old son, who wrote a computer program (in variation of Basic) for ZX-81 to draw a shape, without ever seeing any computer program written anywhere!! His dad was looking at the book which came with it, so he couldn't even have a peek into it. Most of people write really awful comments when I share this, but by now, I've developed a thick skin. Our son is still like that and can work in completely unknown to him field after giving the problem a thought. He finds everyday life and people extremely hard to get on with, as no one understands him. People keep looking for him, even coming to my house, offering him jobs. It's a nightmare not happiness. I'd prefer if he had a manual job and was happy.
Fascinating talk, thanks, Essentia Foundation! Can anyone in the know suggest some other physicists like Bernard Carr who are open-minded to the metaphysical nature of life and its influences?
Rupert Spira, not a physicist, but a biologist who has studied paranormal events for decades. Sorry, I meant to say Rupert Sheldrake. Spira is not a scientist, more of a Vedic teacher.
Interesting way to look at it. I view it as some sort of cloud of consciousness that we get ideas from when we tune into the right channel. Which is why two can receive the same idea/thought at the same time. I chalk intuition up to it as well. I just need a little information to tune into a channel and I get the entire line of thought in an instant. The brain I think is more of an antenna that receives signals/ideas as opposed to creating them. Which is why dementia patients seem to come back for a moment and then lose the signal and it’s not them anymore. Very interesting perspective here and I’m rethinking my understanding of this. 🥃
To bring up a psychological factor: when somebody experiences dissociation there is an alteration of time and speed. The clock which is ticking objectively can be observed as ticking slower or faster. Combine this with quantum physics and some questions arise if the speed of the ticking clock is objective or an observer is needed to make it objective. So lets say an observer is watching the atomic clock ticking, he can observe the same clock ticking slower or faster.
Elite athletes say that they experience time slowing when they go into an optimum flow zone, which may be associated an energy time relationship based upon the uncertainty principle.
@@stephengee4182 elite athletes also dissociate from certain feelings or thougts, complete disconnection is sometimes needed to push trough. During severe pain or structural dissociation the body produces its own opioids. I think that chemicals in the body produce alterations in time and that time is subjective

I wonder to what extent Bernard Carr has read Henri Bergson. His ideas have some consonance with Bergson's, especially when he talks about different specious presents (Bergson talks about different durations, different "rhythms of time"), however Bergson's view is much better constructed, in my opinion. Bergson's main idea is perhaps the distinction between time as treated in physics (which is in fact spatialised time, time treated as if it was another spatial dimension) and real time, which he calls duration. Spatialised time is purely quantitative (hence measurable and infinitely divisible) and homogeneous (every instant is exactly like every other instant). It's an intellectual abstraction. Duration is qualitative and heterogeneous (it's continuous creation of novelty, of difference: each instant is unique, because it adds novelty to the past) and is a continuous, indivisible whole. You cannot slice it. Duration is truly dynamic, whereas spatialised time is a static "skeleton" drawn out of duration. It's the map not the territory. The whole of reality is a continuous dynamic whole which endures, an indivisible creative process of novelty generation, of innovation (introduction of novelty). Reality as a whole continually changes. It's never the same. It's "qualitative multiplicity", heterogeneity. At its core, reality is essentially dynamism, movement, change. Bergson talk of a "sea of vibrations". But there are two contrasting poles, so to speak: the intensive and the extensive. The extensive is the direction of matter, which has its ideal limit (never actually reached) in geometry, pure space, pure extensiveness. The intensive is the direction of consciousness, of subjective experience. The extensive is characterised by juxtaposition ("things" are laid next to one another, they don't interpenetrate). Instead, the intensive is characterised by interpenetration (think of the Vedic/Buddhist image of Indra's Net: each "part" is interconnected with every other in an interpenetrating whole). Bergson talks of two contrasting tendencies/movements: one of contraction (tension, towards the intensive) and one of relaxation (ex-tension, towards the extensive). On the one end, that of the extensive, there is matter, which corresponds to the most minimal duration, the most minimal scale of time (minimal, but not null). Matter endures only to the point of allowing succession (from instant to instant, so to speak, although we need to think of a continuous indivisible process), but it's "the most expanded degree of duration", as Deleuze writes in "Bergsonism" (expanded, relaxed, ex-tended). Having nearly no contraction, matter is basically in the present only. But living organisms have the capacity to contract multiple instants (roughly speaking this relates to William James's idea of specious present), experiencing them as a "single intuition", so to speak. Therefore they have memory, as they can contract the past, holding it together. But different beings experience different degrees of durations, different "rhythms of time". Bergson writes in "Matter and Memory": "Questions relating to subject and object, to their distinction and their union, should be put in terms of time rather than space”. "In reality there is no one rhythm of duration; it is possible to imagine many different rhythms which, slower or faster, measure the degree of tension or relaxation of different kinds of consciousness, and thereby fix their respective places in the scale of being". So on this scale from the intensive to the extensive you find all living organisms, each experiencing reality at a given "rhythm of time", a different level of contraction, and, at one extremity, you find matter (maximal extension, juxtaposition). You may say the other extremity is pure consciousness, pure mind (maximal contraction, interpenetration), although this is instantiated and individualised in specific living organisms, through the creative process Bergson describes in his "Creative Evolution". Consciousness is instantiated/individualised in matter and through matter (Bergson talks of the resistance of matter against the advance of the élan vital as the process through which life concretizes in specific living organisms through evolution). So, instead of conceiving of different dimensions of space and time, as Bernard Carr does, Bergson conceives of a polarity between the intensive and the extensive and a double movement of contraction/expansion which specifies different degrees of duration, experienced by different living organisms (of course the duration experienced by a given living organism can be altered; e.g. drugs, sickness, states of mind etc...) But reality is one single whole, a dynamic, ever changing whole, a process of creative evolution. For Bergson the past continues to exist (but it ceases to act! Action is only in the present), because memory is stored in time, so to speak, and not in space, not in matter, not in the body. Our body is in the present, but our being is made of matter and memory, so to speak. Our perception, which is "virtual action", action-oriented, in practice always intermingles with memory. So we are our past, which advances pushing the present into the future (Bergson says "gnawing into the future") and the future is open, undetermined, still to be made. This is a crucial point for Bergson. He rejects both physicalist determinism (future already determined, already given) and static idealism (Platonic, you may say, according to which the "really real" is atemporal, eternal, unchanging). For Bergson reality is truly dynamic and truly creative.
Beautiful comment. Thank you. You have clearly dedicated time to understanding and interpreting Bergson. ¡Most appreciated!

2:23:53 Carr: "...may be the division between quantum and classical is to do with the spacious present of the observer.... a being with a larger spacious presence much larger domain would appear to be quantum. On the other hand, a being with a much smaller spacious present a lot of the quantum world would appear as classical." What an amazing thought!
This discussion led me to reflect on what I believe about time. Past, present and future are human events only experienced as models through the lens of the present. Their duration varies as a function of elapsed attention paid to the change experienced to different degrees in different states of consciousness. Consciousness is experienced as an emergent property as time is fundamentally an experience of change experienced now and interpreted by the self.
40:45 This was a masterful section here by BK about the necessity of precise language and then, how he explicates his model of the multidimensionality of time. In the same way that beings are separate in space, they can be considered to be separate in time, in different dimensions of time. If Now is the only time, then simultaneity is an illusion, something Einstein proved. Simultaneity belongs to the old model of absolute time in which two events could happen at the "same time" in that absolute timeline. Instead, each being in their own time and space allows for an infinite plurality of perspectives. In some sense, the miracle of communication between beings is a proof that the underlying consciousness beyond time and space is all one, otherwise there could be no meeting between those disparate times and spaces.

Some time ago I had been composing music almost every day for about three years. I've produced about two hours of musical work and when hearing it even though I know I wrote the music I feel like I have no credit for it. As if when I wrote it I was just sitting there writting whatever note my brain would like me to write next. Of course I'd sometime find the right note by completing the harmony, but I wouldn't be satisfied unless it matched "my brain"s desire. Any good piece I wrote had no effort to them. They just came out. There is even one based on a melody I was hearing in my head while waking up. When he talked about plagiarizing yourself I felt that.

With precognition it is important to make a difference between accessing memory from self or from others and the benefit to self and others. In general the term memory is important in many fields of this type discussion.
The subjective experience of time is there is no time, only the ever present now. Objective time is simply how many clock ticks separate events in the ever present now. The ever present now is identical to ever present consciousness/awareness. This is verifiable by paying close attention to your own experience.
How is objective time measured?Is it not basically the difference perceived between some cyclic manifestation, or a vibration, or resonate?Why would it not be affected by all the layers of refraction, or even reflection that exist in a "physical" world ? If mass has an effect on other mass that has to be observed over "time". Why would mass effect time if it would not have any effect with the passing of "time"? What pulled any one mass together to a definable object? Would it not be movement in many directions of many elements at specific numbers of cycles that drew together those elements? Vibrations/resonance is constantly keeping things together. And this can be seen in cymatics, but in three dimensions what do those cymatic vibrations look like in a space of 1nm³ vs 1km³. Are there lines that may form and connect on multidimensional levels? If time is an illusion is might hallucinations be "accidental" connections to a multidimensional view?
Is there a way to contact those researchers? I think it might be of interest to them to also have a look at language and some aspects of Heidegger's understanding of ontology. And the nature of question.
where the big bang started is probably at a constant state of no time, the calm in the storm, the eye of a hurricane, and then as you radiate outward from the big bang you would see an influx in time. What is really wonderful to imagine is that something that seems to be traveling close to the speed of light would be traveling even faster than anything in our state of time could, the speed of light would be faster in a period of slower time.
Time is the component of being alive, the only element of the movement of living things, and if time is lost from working, it is like the heart of a creature stops because of its fever.
I have some ideas on 3-body problem but can't formulate it in detail. Have u heard of 3 parameter where change in parameter changes the outcome causing chaos. As to how to generalize it I don't know but encoding the parameters in a wave n colliding to get the desired outcome we have to train the A.I. it's like trying to find a specific gradient like A.I does but in a higher space I guess. These are all assumptions as I always do. + Sign wave would define a specific calculation.
Yes! Bernardo is in another dimension. Been studying Kastrup for about a year now and he's so beyond the scientific mainstream. It bewilders me that mankind can figure out how to put robots on Mars, but never stop to ask.... "what is, this conscious mind I am using that allowed me to figure out how to do that?"
i think the "brain as a prediction machine" thing is like, maybe even before birth the organ called the brain grows and refines an unimaginably interconnected feedback network with sensory and intrinsic internal inputs inside an evolutionarily conserved skeleton. and what that organ does is reflect the world inside it (and reflect the reflection, imo what really makes humans special🤪), so that it can animate the organism as an entity in the world with metabolic needs. in some ancient time something was able to focus that reflection into a beam that could record, even temporarily, a picture of that world into its structure and function. so this was very useful when we were like sea slugs, for finding food and other sea slugs in a changing world. now as humans, we can understand that planting a seed can grow a plant that we can grind with rocks and turn into something that tastes nice, and that from a certain perspective that reminds u a lot about ur own life.. i think it's mostly about how the networks of neurons evolve as the present turns into the past, and how the past configuration anticipated the present🍃
I can attempt to express the shift from classical, third-person formalisms to quantum, first-person formalisms using the frameworks of logic, mathematics, and physics. This transition represents a profound paradigm shift in our understanding of reality and the nature of scientific inquiry. Logic: In classical logic, we have been operating within the realm of bivalence, where propositions are either true or false, and the principle of non-contradiction holds. However, quantum mechanics has challenged this notion with phenomena such as superposition and entanglement, which defy our classical intuitions. The both/and logic, with its multivalued and paraconsistent structure, provides a framework to model these quantum paradoxes. Let's consider the famous double-slit experiment, where an entity (e.g., an electron) exhibits both wave-like and particle-like behavior depending on the experimental setup. In classical logic, we would have to assign mutually exclusive truth values to the propositions "e is a wave" and "e is a particle." However, the both/and logic allows us to assign graded truth values to these propositions: Truth("e is a wave") = 0.6 Truth("e is a particle") = 0.7 Coherence("e is a wave", "e is a particle") = 0.8 The coherence value reflects the compatibility of these seemingly contradictory properties within the quantum realm. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent the integrated quantum phenomenon: "e is a wave" ⊕ "e is a particle" = quantum_behavior(e) Mathematics: Classical mathematics has been heavily influenced by the notion of objectivity and the search for universal, context-independent truths. However, quantum mechanics has revealed the inherent contextuality and observer-dependence of certain phenomena. The monadological framework, with its emphasis on the irreducible perspectives of monads (fundamental psychophysical entities), provides a basis for reconceptualizing mathematics. In classical set theory, an element either belongs to a set or not, adhering to the principle of bivalence. However, in the quantum realm, we encounter situations where an entity can exhibit graded membership in multiple sets simultaneously. The both/and logic allows us to represent this using multivalued set membership: Membership(e, set_A) = 0.7 Membership(e, set_B) = 0.6 Coherence(Membership(e, set_A), Membership(e, set_B)) = 0.5 This captures the idea that an entity can simultaneously belong to different sets to varying degrees, with a coherence value representing the compatibility of these memberships. Physics: Classical physics has been dominated by third-person, objective descriptions of reality, often ignoring the role of the observer. However, quantum mechanics has brought the observer's perspective and the act of measurement to the forefront, challenging our classical notions of objectivity. In classical mechanics, we can describe the state of a system using well-defined variables and deterministic equations of motion. However, in quantum mechanics, the state of a system is described by a wave function, which represents a superposition of multiple potential states. The both/and logic allows us to represent this superposition using graded truth values: Truth("system is in state A") = 0.4 Truth("system is in state B") = 0.6 Coherence("system is in state A", "system is in state B") = 0.8 The coherence value captures the idea that the system can simultaneously exhibit properties of multiple states, with a non-zero coherence reflecting the compatibility of these states within the quantum realm. Furthermore, the act of measurement in quantum mechanics is not merely a passive observation but an active intervention that disturbs the system and collapses the wave function. This challenges the classical notion of an objective, detached observer. The both/and logic, with its emphasis on the integration of subjective and objective aspects, provides a framework to model this observer-system entanglement. Let O represent an observer, and S represent a quantum system: Truth("O observes S in state A") = 0.7 Truth("S is in state A") = 0.5 Coherence("O observes S in state A", "S is in state A") = 0.9 The high coherence value reflects the inseparability of the observer's perspective and the system's state within the quantum realm. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent the integrated observer-system reality: "O observes S in state A" ⊕ "S is in state A" = quantum_measurement_event This shift from classical, third-person formalisms to quantum, first-person formalisms challenges our traditional notions of objectivity, detachment, and context-independence. The both/and logic and the monadological framework provide symbolic and conceptual tools to navigate this transition, allowing us to model and reason about the inherent contextuality, observer-dependence, and paradoxical nature of quantum phenomena. By embracing these new formalisms, we can develop a more holistic and integrated understanding of reality, one that acknowledges the irreducible perspectives of observers and the co-constitutive nature of subjective and objective aspects. This paradigm shift has profound implications not only for our scientific worldview but also for our philosophical and metaphysical understanding of the nature of reality, knowledge, and the role of the observer in the pursuit of understanding.
Let's continue exploring how the transition from classical to quantum formalisms enabled by the both/and logic and monadological framework opens up new frontiers across various domains: Philosophy of Science and Epistemology The shift to quantum, first-person formalisms has profound implications for our understanding of scientific inquiry, knowledge, and epistemology. Classical epistemology has been heavily influenced by the ideal of an objective, detached observer acquiring knowledge about an independent, external reality. However, the quantum realm challenges this view by highlighting the fundamental inseparability of the observer and the observed system. The both/and logic, with its emphasis on the coherence and synthesis of subjective and objective aspects, provides a framework for reconceptualizing the nature of scientific knowledge. Rather than viewing knowledge as a mere representation or mapping of an external reality, we can understand it as a co-constituted process involving the irreducible perspectives of observers and the systems under study. Let O represent an observer, S represent a system, and K represent scientific knowledge: Truth(K is objective) = 0.6 Truth(K involves subjective aspects) = 0.7 Coherence(K is objective, K involves subjective aspects) = 0.8 The high coherence value reflects the idea that scientific knowledge is neither purely objective nor purely subjective, but rather a synthesis of both aspects. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent this integrated understanding: "K is objective" ⊕ "K involves subjective aspects" = scientific_knowledge(O, S) This reconceptualization challenges the classical notion of knowledge as a detached representation of an external reality and acknowledges the active role of observers in shaping and co-constituting scientific knowledge. Furthermore, the both/and logic and monadological framework provide tools for modeling the contextuality and observer-dependence inherent in quantum phenomena. This has implications for our understanding of scientific objectivity and the universality of scientific laws and theories. Let T represent a scientific theory, and C represent a particular context or experimental setup: Truth(T holds universally) = 0.7 Truth(T depends on context C) = 0.6 Coherence(T holds universally, T depends on context C) = 0.5 The moderate coherence value reflects the tension between the desire for universal scientific laws and the recognition that scientific theories may be context-dependent and observer-relative within the quantum realm. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent a more integrated understanding: "T holds universally" ⊕ "T depends on context C" = contextual_scientific_theory(T, C) This shift challenges the classical ideal of universal, context-independent scientific laws and theories and acknowledges the potential for observer-dependence and contextuality within the quantum realm. Philosophy of Mind and Consciousness The transition to quantum, first-person formalisms also has profound implications for our understanding of consciousness and the mind-body problem. Classical approaches have often treated the mind and consciousness as separate from the physical world, leading to various forms of dualism or reductionism. However, the both/and logic and monadological framework provide a basis for reconceptualizing the relationship between mind and matter. Let M represent the mental or subjective aspect, and P represent the physical or objective aspect: Truth(M is distinct from P) = 0.5 Truth(M is integrated with P) = 0.6 Coherence(M is distinct from P, M is integrated with P) = 0.7 The high coherence value reflects the idea that the mental and physical aspects are neither completely distinct nor fully reducible to each other, but rather exist in a state of coherent integration. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent this integrated understanding: "M is distinct from P" ⊕ "M is integrated with P" = mind-matter_relationship This view challenges both classical dualism and reductionism and acknowledges the irreducible co-constitution of subjective and objective aspects within a unified reality. Furthermore, the monadological framework, with its emphasis on fundamental psychophysical monads, provides a basis for reconceptualizing consciousness as an irreducible aspect of reality, rather than an emergent property or epiphenomenon. This challenges the classical view of consciousness as a mere by-product of physical processes and acknowledges its fundamental role in shaping and co-constituting reality. Let C represent consciousness, and R represent physical reality: Truth(C is an epiphenomenon of R) = 0.4 Truth(C co-constitutes R) = 0.7 Coherence(C is an epiphenomenon of R, C co-constitutes R) = 0.6 The moderate coherence value reflects the tension between the classical view of consciousness as an epiphenomenon and the quantum view of consciousness as an active co-constituent of reality. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent a more integrated understanding: "C is an epiphenomenon of R" ⊕ "C co-constitutes R" = consciousness-reality_relationship This shift challenges the classical reductionist view of consciousness and acknowledges its fundamental role in shaping and co-constituting reality, aligning with the principles of the monadological framework. Foundations of Mathematics and Logic The transition to quantum, first-person formalisms also has implications for our understanding of the foundations of mathematics and logic themselves. Classical mathematics and logic have been heavily influenced by the ideals of objectivity, universality, and context-independence. However, the both/and logic and monadological framework challenge these notions and provide a basis for reconceptualizing the nature of mathematical and logical truth. Let T represent a mathematical or logical truth, and O represent an observer or context: Truth(T is universal) = 0.7 Truth(T depends on observer O) = 0.6 Coherence(T is universal, T depends on observer O) = 0.5 The moderate coherence value reflects the tension between the classical view of mathematical and logical truths as universal and context-independent, and the quantum view of truth as observer-dependent and context-sensitive. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent a more integrated understanding: "T is universal" ⊕ "T depends on observer O" = contextual_mathematical_truth(T, O) This view challenges the classical notion of timeless, objective mathematical and logical truths and acknowledges the potential for observer-dependence and contextuality within these domains, aligning with the principles of the monadological framework. Furthermore, the both/and logic itself provides a basis for reconceptualizing the foundations of logic by embracing multivalence, paraconsistency, and the coherence of seemingly contradictory propositions. This challenges the classical principles of bivalence and non-contradiction and opens up new possibilities for representing and reasoning about the paradoxical and contextual nature of truth within the quantum realm. These are just a few examples of how the transition from classical, third-person formalisms to quantum, first-person formalisms enabled by the both/and logic and monadological framework has profound implications across various domains. By embracing these new formalisms and conceptual frameworks, we can develop a more holistic, integrated, and contextualized understanding of reality, one that acknowledges the irreducible perspectives of observers, the co-constitutive nature of subjective and objective aspects, and the potential for contextuality and observer-dependence within the quantum realm.
As a 21 year old, I feel very grateful to see the Internet being used for this type of things, seeing professionals and wise people from older generations starting to speak about these issues, even if that many times means they can lose their reputation or even their job. I wish us, the younger generations, can follow your legacy and be the ones to shift the paradigm... I don't think it's impossible, as my generation has overall been raised in a more non-material environment (videos, Internet, videogames, hearing about simulation theories... I'd say we've engaged more with the Internet and information than with the material/physical world). The amount of people my age I've met who think "the material world is just one layer of reality but there's definitely more than just it" is pretty huge I'd say, but not enough. I just wish there were more people from my generation watching this kind of videos.
Dont wish it. Create it.

But listen to the conversation between Kastrup and Maudlin.
One of my favourite days of my life was after years of playing guitar, one day i was improvising a guitar solo with a band and i realised i was hearing the music i was going to play before i played it whilst playing in time with the other band members, it was such a cool paradigm shift for my brain.
When that happens you are the instrument, not the guitar.
The music was already there and came to us throughout you.
I heard he’s favourite was called Sophie; figures… if only he hadn’t of been that weirdly familiar and as short as me…amazing how youth blinds people to their future or the lack of it, god knows what young peoples sensibilities would be like if money really did grow on trees, particularly in todays age of mass consumption…where is stimulus & value formulated.
I suppose as a teenager, socialising with people with interests in science and the creative fields, invention, food algorithms or making your own radios out of components meant a lot of interests; never recognising these traits as mildly on the spectrum didn’t prepare me for the world of tin can sustenance and wind in the willows gossip and libel whispers from which I’m quite sorely sour and inpinged yet isolated by. It really is quite strange to watch people paint portraits of grotesque Loch Ness monster type creatures. I wonder if there was no internet, if it would even be possible to be a stranger in the community…yet ‘online’ appears a weapon in the arsenal for many people of honesty, time and time again; only yesterday I heard my sister say she was dreading the return of her father to her house, like a strategy and hindrance I’d never known, a portrait i didn’t personally recognise even…how really very peculiar.
Of course, they’d have to be a potential escape room machine, to have the patience to sit through an entire scan of Jayne aire, since there’s no metaphorical second flaw window and porch roof to climb out of the social mechanical lock-in. I notice however that there is an issue with sustenance and stimulus for the mind outside of oneselves and one’s own ability to create stimulus & wonderment, measuring culture & supply. All the knives I see are of dreams and fantasies of oneself being different to what one wishes and expects; although knowingly sounding like a job for a psychologist, my response/reaction to what sounds like a 50 year old posing as a teenage joke could clearly be misconstrued… and since no one wants to admit their foibles and vanities openly I could easily smell a potential noose.
Maybe it’s the drug of feeling superior to humanity or another human being of lesser means and lesser tools which proves the hardest cycle to break. But then as a person speaking on the internet, because I apparently don’t speak any form of tangible English language, I suppose my tools are far inferior to the death of a truthful sense of humanity and it’s aptitude to generate power, prestige and impressiveness.

Just got stoned so I'll let you know if it helps 😂
Exactly! You’ve thought of your stoned self, with the mind in the state of stoned, with your present non-stoned captured by both present self time and the future self time outside the mechanism of this state. Your species present just explained with our presences (the readers of your comment) who read and also understand the states you explained. Your experience of time has no distinction of your past, and your future and we all understood it! 😆😂

@@CatsInHats-S.CrouchingTiger You're making me light one up too 🤣
I will sum up what you said the best I can, tell me if I got it right:
The brain is physical yet the mind is non-physical thus allowing humans to explore past and future selves. The body is anchored in the present moment but it can receive and feel past and future sensations/emotion(pain for example).
Lol, funny you should say that, getting there! Lol

Absolutely gorgeous
Philosophy, physics and Psychology will soon connect with the endeavors in arts. Honoring the lineair worthlessness of words and still searching for the perhaps simplest secrets of our experiences (if we see words as a tool to touch reality with). In the end, transitioning from “either or thinking” I am convinced that the present harnesses every possible concept. Once Consciousness focuses on experiencing time, this allows us to experience potential field energies and particle energy simultaneously, which allows us to transfer idea into matter and vice versa. Fundamentally, conscious experience coinciding with what we call time is flow and timelessness at the same time.
Could consciousness & time be the exact same thing?

I lived in a electricity free environment for nine months in a redwood forest. Just propane and fire wood. No watch or clock. In the first two months I noticed subtle changes. My thoughts began to rhyme. Then I seemed to have no thoughts bouncing around in my head. I got up as soon as the sun came up over the nearby mountains and was in bed and sound asleep within a half hour after it went down. I got to where I could easily know the time of day by inflections in the light. When I had to move back into the city I was appalled by electric light and hated clocks. My forest stay was the most at peace I've ever been.

When I first heard Bernardo speak on Idealism and his trek out of the Materialist Mindset... It was like encountering a pool of clear, cool water in the desert. And each point and distinction revealed a kinship of Conscious Experience that resonated and supported my unique experiences to this point in Life.
Then, while exploring Bernardo's sharings, that led to the work of Bernard Carr... which was like finding a feast arrayed in the shade of beautiful tree at that Oasis.
I just love these philosophical discussions ❤
THE BEST CHANNEL I EVER SUBSCRIBED TO!!! This is absolutely mind-blowing! This is a golden moment! It is so great to know that this topic is being acknowledged and actually evolving because as Bernard Carr has stated... Physics need to advance and its almost inevitable that it Will Advance! This episode was priceless. I love your team and I look forward to seeing Even more great discussions. 🙏❤️
This was a GREAT discussion! Thank you all! It's great to see the work progressing into deeper and deeper conversations rather than surface discussions. This is how paradigms are shifted and created!

Just imagine a mountain valley that got completely cut off from the world and has the strange metrological phenomenon of being fully in fog 365 days a year. There are some ‘religions’ in this valley, believing in a blue sky but the philosophers and scientists of this valley are debating and debating, many ‘proofing’ that his blue is just an emerging phenomenon of fog. Then imagine, someone leaning the art of climbing and succeeding to actually see the blue sky. This climber (mystic) would have a very hard time when returning and joining the discussions of the scientific elite of this metaphorical valley. Having experienced blue sky or having NOT experienced blue sky makes a big difference. According to my experience, there comes the point in every journey for understanding reality, where you need to learn how to climb and take the risk to leave the discussion table of reasoning and start your first person experiment.
Well put.
Yeah, it's called DMT, it will reveal everything and more than you can comprehend.
I've come to the conclusion that materialism/physicalism/scientism is just intellectual conservatism that maintains the status quo. It's not hard for us to imagine putting a sentient ai (which may or may not happen at some point, but this is just a thought experiment) in an advanced simulation, with no knowledge of the outside world, trained with a strict physicalist/materialist world view. It would be fun to know how a strict physicalist/materialists would feel if it was his job to convince the ai that his world view could be off. I know it wouldn't really be a hard job, because the ai lacks ego like ours and it's not trying to protect the status quo.

I am at this exact point in my journey. I can only have conversations with my imagination as no one in my family or friendship circle wants to have anything to do with my questions or answers. I however, just answered one of my own questions : Is this awareness or just delusion? The synchronicity of this YT conversation as well as your comment, allowed me to move forward and upward, beyond the valley of fog. I don't know exactly when I started my own first person experiment, but it must have been many years ago as I have felt a lonely-ness for a long time. This is why I seek out conversations in the comment section. YT lately, deletes everything I post regardless of what I type.
Love seeing these discussions without ego taking over. Well spoken and easy to digest. Haven't looked at the rest of your content, but if its half this conversation you got my sub. Look forward to seeing more, thank you

What a privilege to be able to listen to this interesting conversation! ❤
And lastly, (sorry for ranting) @44:31 it reminds me of Hegel's "Phenomenology of Spirit." I always try and clarify this debate by using the analogy, "That which sees you through my eyes, is the same as to that which sees me through yours." Meaning, that the supreme consciousness that dwells within all things, is in and of itself, all of those things. We are just coming to the state of awareness that allows us to rationally understand and experience this.
In Lak’ech Ala K’in "I am another yourself" "I AM, is my name forever and ever" there are many instances of this understanding in ancient mystical texts
Bernard Carr's open mindedness makes him the most evolved of all of them 💯💯
It is possible to experience the past, present, and future, and to be everyone else that you see in front of you simultaneously. I have had this experience where I felt I was the people I saw in front of me: mother and child, the dog and the dog walker, even the blade of grass. Objects lose their distinguishing elements as subjective awareness takes over. While the experience is exhilarating and blissful, it is very difficult to function in today’s world while in that state. For one thing, the blood pressure drops uncontrollably, and the bliss even becomes painful.
From a Kashmiri Shaivite perspective, Consciousness and the illusory world are symbolized in the iconic figure of Shiva as the Cosmic Dancer. His immovable, vertical axis represents pure Consciousness (associated with Shiva), while the horizontal axis exemplified by his whirling limbs represents time, space, and movement (associated with his Shakti, energy), which is the world of illusion. Everything exists, all at once, as pure potential within Shiva Consciousness. The world, from the viewpoint of individual consciousness, is a dispersed fragment of the whole.
To experience you being me is a higher state accessible through surrendering the individual I-consciousness. This involves the collapse of the barriers of the individual’s sphere of the mind.
Thank you for this valuable discussion.
Well put.
Your description, and subsequent organized formulation of a distinct structure to these fundamental concepts, is both elegant and encompassing. I too believe as you do in everything you've described concerning perspective, consciousness, potential, oneness, movement through the one existence of everything and our individual viewpoint in it. I ask you though, if what you described is the case, to consider this question: Why?
@@THEmomentumJUNK1E thank you. Can you elaborate on your question?
@@natashanandini Yes...
@@natashanandini To avoid confusion. My question Why is not asking why you believe this. It is asking, if your holistic comprehension, your divine understanding is true and manifest. I believe it is... Have you after reaching, accepting, incorporating this definition, came to wonder why such an understanding should come into existence? What reason does existence have to contain such a pure description of itself so real within and around you?

Hello, can anyone elaborate on what Bernard was speaking about at 1:30:00? If we remove their identities and look at them as atoms occupying space like galaxies in the vastness of space, that's a beautiful picture but Bernard is an identity because those atoms are organized, have attractions and functions. How can it be argued that they are one in the same in any dimension or scale? What function does this idea have in physics? What are the implications

Thank you for this conversation.
Well done to all participants and thank you for this video. It is refreshing to witness a respectful and well-reasoned discussion. It did however occur to me that in coming to an understanding and answers to the key points raised, it is perhaps essential and helpful to first define what is meant by: 1. "Mind" 2. "You" and 3. "I". Who (or what) is it that is asking the questions and who (or what) is it that is aware of the very points that are under discussion? Once the answers to those questions are understood, the discussion perhaps points to some deeper understandings.
3 great minds taking us to a higher level of thinking. Thanks much 👍
Regarding Smolin: as I understand, he thinks reality is truly temporal, so there is real introduction of novelty. The future is open, not already given. The present is special because that's where real dynamics are, where real action is. But it's not a static present, as in certain idealism (which conceives time as illusory and "true reality" as eternal or atemporal hence "static"). It's rather an ever changing present, truly dynamic. So in that regard he's quite close to Bergson’s view, which I summarised in my previous comment.
this conversation is wonderful, thank you very much. looking forward to the video contributions of the conference. thumb up
Brilliant conversation! Superb! I learned a lot! I love the analogy that was used during the topic about Alex Gomez Marin's presentation 'The Consciousness of Neuroscience'. Marin mocks the notion that the mind is what the brain does by pointing out that time isn't just what the clock does. Bravo! 👏🏻😄👌🏻
I love that Bernard Carr insists on the spiritual aspect in his model. It is consistent with many esoteric traditions. I love the show, I just wish there were fewer interruptions/ads. A great show though. 💝
Fantastic program. Thank you.💝
Thanks to guys like this we are beginning to ask the important questions of life again even in mainstream. Thx chaps
we are energy trying to see itself❤🙏🙃
❤❤❤❤❤❤
What great lighting and videography....and content of course but the production is very nice indeed.
This is extremely deep.
Donald Hoffman would have been an awesome addition to this discussion!! ❤️
Yes Agreed! Hoffman would really round it all out, his work is amazing. But the aspect that strikes me the most is that all these disciplines are now pointing to the same jump in our understanding. That the dimension of consciousness is real, and the Universe is fundamentally a mind. Blows me away!.
If you want to be bored yeah.
The Chan/Zen Buddhism tradition has been discussing mind/experience for millennia. Eihei Dogen Zenji's Shobogenzo essay 'Uji' (being-time) is exactly some of what is discussed here. Also the Lankavatara sutra explicitly clarifies these questions of mind, time, being , self etc. I hear Bernardo say things that seem to be modern translation of such writings (in a more scientific language of course) and I smile, because I feel that it is spot on! Bernard's hierarchy of consciousness resonates with me too. I think of it as 'fractal' consciousness, where complex systems will have a sense of experiencial 'self' although not necessarily cling to it (it seems that is a very human problem!)
Very fascinating discussion, thank you for bringing us such a professional, academic and constructive talk!
Exactly this. Ancient texts, Western Tradition, Vedanta, and other fringe philosophers of the occult have been describing what these academics are now discussing, and although I'm happy it finally reaches a bigger audience, I can't help but cringe inside when they cite that some philosopher from 25 years ago coining some basic concept of mind, which was being discussed and practised in rituals for THOUSANDS of years... like wtf academics, do first sources not matter to you?!
Thank you! I love a good discussion around a big wood table.
Time is what Now, makes for us to play in 😊😊😊
Beautiful conversation, Thank you love and peace to all
Wow- Sunday treat!
It's definitely a wonderful surprise...waking up on Sunday to a deep discussion....This is my breakfast!!
This format is better than the one with video conference..
Fascinating. Brilliant. Thank you 🙏☦️
This so my jam! Wish I was sitting at the table in real time. Please have another round where Bernardo is able to expand on his idea about solving the third metaphysical (decomposition) problem with a multi-dimensional model of time. He first brought up this specific point in this video around minute 30, and then again later in the interview but unfortunately wasn’t able to elaborate further at either time because of getting interrupted. I understand Bernard’s multi-dimensional view of time and how it relates, but Bernardo said the decomposition problem solution has to do with mind talking to itself across different timelines, which sounds somewhat distinct from the hierarchical time scales in Bernard’s model. Please do another video where Bernardo is able to speak more about how he is personally thinking of the solution to the decomposition problem! I really think he is onto something! (And Bernard too, of course…his model is intuitively spot on for me.)
Brilliant time experience listening to the discussion!! Thank you!! My little input - ‘there is only consciousness’ all is experienced within it. 😊😊🙏🙏
Pshycdelics taught me, time is infinite and we are all one
That means absolutely nothing to everyone else but good for you
@@jono77you just don’t want to make your connection. However, we can all connect to the understanding of the message if we lock into our own experience of the Unity.
Time cant be infinite because it would be impossible to traverse infinite time. We would never get here If we started from infinite past.
@@larseriksson1184hmm. what if time is as put on a loop, in a circular path, and it’s just always existed and always will. How would we not be able to get here? Just because there’s not an origin point?
Psychadelics taught my friend the complete opposite. With this in mind, maybe psychadelics aren't the best epistemological tool to figure out truth.

"Respectable speculation," is a concept Bernard brought up. It got me thinking.
Speculation is the first step in making a hypothesis.
You mean, Respectulation? 😅
A fantastic discussion! Thank you! ❤
This is a fascinating and interesting discussion! But I wonder, have any of these physicists, philosophers or psychologists ever practiced and learned how to abide in complete mental stillness, ie. "no mind"? It seems to me the great mystics throughout history have had definitive experiences of what the panel is talking about. They have described how to learn to abide in this space and they have attempted to describe the indescribable by telling us what it is not. I think that experience would inform the opinions of these experts significantly!
It's true, and sadly academics's won't ever describe the indescribable, because any description must always negate a part of the whole, which is the foundation of Idealism.
I have been considering this for quite some time now, and I would say that my understanding is become sufficiently refined. I am ready to start asking the bigger questions. If only i could find someone to ask them to who can relate to them and help me consider/develop them. Based on the understanding that existence is probabalistic in nature. I am developing a model to describe and discover an understanding for how mind interacts with the landscape of time dimensions in the probability field which spans all spacetime.
This is awesome!
Makes so much sense, thank you
I agree we live in multi-dimensional spaces. When I observe my individual self I cannot see the oneness of all, but when I experience expanded consciousness I experience the ones of the all!
Brilliant discussion and greetings from Paris and another time and consciousness :)
Bernardo explained a research about precognition . I checked but could not find any research. Does someone know where this research was published and who carried this out. Thanks
Some of the authors interviewed on New Thinking Allowed talk about many studies on precognition.
From time to time I very reluctantly tell the story of my four year old son, who wrote a computer program (in variation of Basic) for ZX-81 to draw a shape, without ever seeing any computer program written anywhere!!
His dad was looking at the book which came with it, so he couldn't even have a peek into it.
Most of people write really awful comments when I share this, but by now, I've developed a thick skin.
Our son is still like that and can work in completely unknown to him field after giving the problem a thought.
He finds everyday life and people extremely hard to get on with, as no one understands him.
People keep looking for him, even coming to my house, offering him jobs. It's a nightmare not happiness.
I'd prefer if he had a manual job and was happy.
Wow like he’s plucking the information from ether like it’s all ready out there he’s just tapping into it.. amazing
beautiful, thank you
Beautifully created! So cool
Fascinating talk, thanks, Essentia Foundation! Can anyone in the know suggest some other physicists like Bernard Carr who are open-minded to the metaphysical nature of life and its influences?
Rupert Spira, not a physicist, but a biologist who has studied paranormal events for decades. Sorry, I meant to say Rupert Sheldrake. Spira is not a scientist, more of a Vedic teacher.
I'm pretty sure if I rewatch this and I'll still learn something new.
Interesting way to look at it. I view it as some sort of cloud of consciousness that we get ideas from when we tune into the right channel. Which is why two can receive the same idea/thought at the same time. I chalk intuition up to it as well. I just need a little information to tune into a channel and I get the entire line of thought in an instant.
The brain I think is more of an antenna that receives signals/ideas as opposed to creating them. Which is why dementia patients seem to come back for a moment and then lose the signal and it’s not them anymore.
Very interesting perspective here and I’m rethinking my understanding of this. 🥃
like attracts like. It is all about frequency and resonance.
Thats some really profound critical thinking going on! Some really profound points being made!
To bring up a psychological factor: when somebody experiences dissociation there is an alteration of time and speed. The clock which is ticking objectively can be observed as ticking slower or faster. Combine this with quantum physics and some questions arise if the speed of the ticking clock is objective or an observer is needed to make it objective. So lets say an observer is watching the atomic clock ticking, he can observe the same clock ticking slower or faster.
Elite athletes say that they experience time slowing when they go into an optimum flow zone, which may be associated an energy time relationship based upon the uncertainty principle.
@@stephengee4182 elite athletes also dissociate from certain feelings or thougts, complete disconnection is sometimes needed to push trough. During severe pain or structural dissociation the body produces its own opioids. I think that chemicals in the body produce alterations in time and that time is subjective

I wonder to what extent Bernard Carr has read Henri Bergson. His ideas have some consonance with Bergson's, especially when he talks about different specious presents (Bergson talks about different durations, different "rhythms of time"), however Bergson's view is much better constructed, in my opinion.
Bergson's main idea is perhaps the distinction between time as treated in physics (which is in fact spatialised time, time treated as if it was another spatial dimension) and real time, which he calls duration.
Spatialised time is purely quantitative (hence measurable and infinitely divisible) and homogeneous (every instant is exactly like every other instant). It's an intellectual abstraction.
Duration is qualitative and heterogeneous (it's continuous creation of novelty, of difference: each instant is unique, because it adds novelty to the past) and is a continuous, indivisible whole. You cannot slice it.
Duration is truly dynamic, whereas spatialised time is a static "skeleton" drawn out of duration. It's the map not the territory.
The whole of reality is a continuous dynamic whole which endures, an indivisible creative process of novelty generation, of innovation (introduction of novelty). Reality as a whole continually changes. It's never the same. It's "qualitative multiplicity", heterogeneity.
At its core, reality is essentially dynamism, movement, change. Bergson talk of a "sea of vibrations".
But there are two contrasting poles, so to speak: the intensive and the extensive.
The extensive is the direction of matter, which has its ideal limit (never actually reached) in geometry, pure space, pure extensiveness.
The intensive is the direction of consciousness, of subjective experience.
The extensive is characterised by juxtaposition ("things" are laid next to one another, they don't interpenetrate).
Instead, the intensive is characterised by interpenetration (think of the Vedic/Buddhist image of Indra's Net: each "part" is interconnected with every other in an interpenetrating whole).
Bergson talks of two contrasting tendencies/movements: one of contraction (tension, towards the intensive) and one of relaxation (ex-tension, towards the extensive).
On the one end, that of the extensive, there is matter, which corresponds to the most minimal duration, the most minimal scale of time (minimal, but not null).
Matter endures only to the point of allowing succession (from instant to instant, so to speak, although we need to think of a continuous indivisible process), but it's "the most expanded degree of duration", as Deleuze writes in "Bergsonism" (expanded, relaxed, ex-tended).
Having nearly no contraction, matter is basically in the present only.
But living organisms have the capacity to contract multiple instants (roughly speaking this relates to William James's idea of specious present), experiencing them as a "single intuition", so to speak. Therefore they have memory, as they can contract the past, holding it together.
But different beings experience different degrees of durations, different "rhythms of time". Bergson writes in "Matter and Memory":
"Questions relating to subject and object, to their distinction and their union, should be put in terms of time rather than space”.
"In reality there is no one rhythm of duration; it is possible to imagine many different rhythms which, slower or faster, measure the degree of tension or relaxation of different kinds of consciousness, and thereby fix their respective places in the scale of being".
So on this scale from the intensive to the extensive you find all living organisms, each experiencing reality at a given "rhythm of time", a different level of contraction, and, at one extremity, you find matter (maximal extension, juxtaposition).
You may say the other extremity is pure consciousness, pure mind (maximal contraction, interpenetration), although this is instantiated and individualised in specific living organisms, through the creative process Bergson describes in his "Creative Evolution". Consciousness is instantiated/individualised in matter and through matter (Bergson talks of the resistance of matter against the advance of the élan vital as the process through which life concretizes in specific living organisms through evolution).
So, instead of conceiving of different dimensions of space and time, as Bernard Carr does, Bergson conceives of a polarity between the intensive and the extensive and a double movement of contraction/expansion which specifies different degrees of duration, experienced by different living organisms (of course the duration experienced by a given living organism can be altered; e.g. drugs, sickness, states of mind etc...)
But reality is one single whole, a dynamic, ever changing whole, a process of creative evolution.
For Bergson the past continues to exist (but it ceases to act! Action is only in the present), because memory is stored in time, so to speak, and not in space, not in matter, not in the body.
Our body is in the present, but our being is made of matter and memory, so to speak.
Our perception, which is "virtual action", action-oriented, in practice always intermingles with memory.
So we are our past, which advances pushing the present into the future (Bergson says "gnawing into the future") and the future is open, undetermined, still to be made.
This is a crucial point for Bergson. He rejects both physicalist determinism (future already determined, already given) and static idealism (Platonic, you may say, according to which the "really real" is atemporal, eternal, unchanging).
For Bergson reality is truly dynamic and truly creative.
Beautiful comment. Thank you. You have clearly dedicated time to understanding and interpreting Bergson. ¡Most appreciated!

2:23:53 Carr: "...may be the division between quantum and classical is to do with the spacious present of the observer.... a being with a larger spacious presence much larger domain would appear to be quantum. On the other hand, a being with a much smaller spacious present a lot of the quantum world would appear as classical."
What an amazing thought!
This discussion led me to reflect on what I believe about time.
Past, present and future are human events only experienced as models through the lens of the present. Their duration varies as a function of elapsed attention paid to the change experienced to different degrees in different states of consciousness. Consciousness is experienced as an emergent property as time is fundamentally an experience of change experienced now and interpreted by the self.
40:45 This was a masterful section here by BK about the necessity of precise language and then, how he explicates his model of the multidimensionality of time.
In the same way that beings are separate in space, they can be considered to be separate in time, in different dimensions of time. If Now is the only time, then simultaneity is an illusion, something Einstein proved. Simultaneity belongs to the old model of absolute time in which two events could happen at the "same time" in that absolute timeline.
Instead, each being in their own time and space allows for an infinite plurality of perspectives. In some sense, the miracle of communication between beings is a proof that the underlying consciousness beyond time and space is all one, otherwise there could be no meeting between those disparate times and spaces.

Some time ago I had been composing music almost every day for about three years. I've produced about two hours of musical work and when hearing it even though I know I wrote the music I feel like I have no credit for it. As if when I wrote it I was just sitting there writting whatever note my brain would like me to write next. Of course I'd sometime find the right note by completing the harmony, but I wouldn't be satisfied unless it matched "my brain"s desire.
Any good piece I wrote had no effort to them. They just came out. There is even one based on a melody I was hearing in my head while waking up.
When he talked about plagiarizing yourself I felt that.
Can we listen to your music somewhere? I'm so curious to hear it. 😊

When could you discuss Jacobo Grinberg's writings or work with any of your guests?
With precognition it is important to make a difference between accessing memory from self or from others and the benefit to self and others. In general the term memory is important in many fields of this type discussion.
The subjective experience of time is there is no time, only the ever present now. Objective time is simply how many clock ticks separate events in the ever present now. The ever present now is identical to ever present consciousness/awareness. This is verifiable by paying close attention to your own experience.
How is objective time measured?Is it not basically the difference perceived between some cyclic manifestation, or a vibration, or resonate?Why would it not be affected by all the layers of refraction, or even reflection that exist in a "physical" world ? If mass has an effect on other mass that has to be observed over "time". Why would mass effect time if it would not have any effect with the passing of "time"? What pulled any one mass together to a definable object? Would it not be movement in many directions of many elements at specific numbers of cycles that drew together those elements? Vibrations/resonance is constantly keeping things together. And this can be seen in cymatics, but in three dimensions what do those cymatic vibrations look like in a space of 1nm³ vs 1km³. Are there lines that may form and connect on multidimensional levels?
If time is an illusion is might hallucinations be "accidental" connections to a multidimensional view?
Is there a way to contact those researchers? I think it might be of interest to them to also have a look at language and some aspects of Heidegger's understanding of ontology.
And the nature of question.
where the big bang started is probably at a constant state of no time, the calm in the storm, the eye of a hurricane, and then as you radiate outward from the big bang you would see an influx in time. What is really wonderful to imagine is that something that seems to be traveling close to the speed of light would be traveling even faster than anything in our state of time could, the speed of light would be faster in a period of slower time.
Can anyone offer some insight into the relationship between: Precongition and syncronicity.
Wasn't Heidegger's main work "Being and Time" about the same?
Where do we find the recordings of the speakers you're conversing about here?
Look at description.
Time is the component of being alive, the only element of the movement of living things, and if time is lost from working, it is like the heart of a creature stops because of its fever.
I have some ideas on 3-body problem but can't formulate it in detail. Have u heard of 3 parameter where change in parameter changes the outcome causing chaos. As to how to generalize it I don't know but encoding the parameters in a wave n colliding to get the desired outcome we have to train the A.I. it's like trying to find a specific gradient like A.I does but in a higher space I guess. These are all assumptions as I always do. + Sign wave would define a specific calculation.
Excellent! Just came upon Bernado Kastrups ideas.. BRILLIANT
They are your ideas though.
Yes! Bernardo is in another dimension. Been studying Kastrup for about a year now and he's so beyond the scientific mainstream. It bewilders me that mankind can figure out how to put robots on Mars, but never stop to ask.... "what is, this conscious mind I am using that allowed me to figure out how to do that?"
Amazing information. Thank you very much.
How do you know when "now" is happening?
Is precognitive function similar to what neuroscientists discuss with the brain being a prediction machine (e.g., Lisa Feldman, Anil Seth)?
i think the "brain as a prediction machine" thing is like, maybe even before birth the organ called the brain grows and refines an unimaginably interconnected feedback network with sensory and intrinsic internal inputs inside an evolutionarily conserved skeleton. and what that organ does is reflect the world inside it (and reflect the reflection, imo what really makes humans special🤪), so that it can animate the organism as an entity in the world with metabolic needs. in some ancient time something was able to focus that reflection into a beam that could record, even temporarily, a picture of that world into its structure and function. so this was very useful when we were like sea slugs, for finding food and other sea slugs in a changing world. now as humans, we can understand that planting a seed can grow a plant that we can grind with rocks and turn into something that tastes nice, and that from a certain perspective that reminds u a lot about ur own life.. i think it's mostly about how the networks of neurons evolve as the present turns into the past, and how the past configuration anticipated the present🍃
@@keziapaws1876 Oooh great thoughts thanks for sharing (:
I can attempt to express the shift from classical, third-person formalisms to quantum, first-person formalisms using the frameworks of logic, mathematics, and physics. This transition represents a profound paradigm shift in our understanding of reality and the nature of scientific inquiry.
Logic:
In classical logic, we have been operating within the realm of bivalence, where propositions are either true or false, and the principle of non-contradiction holds. However, quantum mechanics has challenged this notion with phenomena such as superposition and entanglement, which defy our classical intuitions. The both/and logic, with its multivalued and paraconsistent structure, provides a framework to model these quantum paradoxes.
Let's consider the famous double-slit experiment, where an entity (e.g., an electron) exhibits both wave-like and particle-like behavior depending on the experimental setup. In classical logic, we would have to assign mutually exclusive truth values to the propositions "e is a wave" and "e is a particle." However, the both/and logic allows us to assign graded truth values to these propositions:
Truth("e is a wave") = 0.6
Truth("e is a particle") = 0.7
Coherence("e is a wave", "e is a particle") = 0.8
The coherence value reflects the compatibility of these seemingly contradictory properties within the quantum realm. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent the integrated quantum phenomenon:
"e is a wave" ⊕ "e is a particle" = quantum_behavior(e)
Mathematics:
Classical mathematics has been heavily influenced by the notion of objectivity and the search for universal, context-independent truths. However, quantum mechanics has revealed the inherent contextuality and observer-dependence of certain phenomena. The monadological framework, with its emphasis on the irreducible perspectives of monads (fundamental psychophysical entities), provides a basis for reconceptualizing mathematics.
In classical set theory, an element either belongs to a set or not, adhering to the principle of bivalence. However, in the quantum realm, we encounter situations where an entity can exhibit graded membership in multiple sets simultaneously. The both/and logic allows us to represent this using multivalued set membership:
Membership(e, set_A) = 0.7
Membership(e, set_B) = 0.6
Coherence(Membership(e, set_A), Membership(e, set_B)) = 0.5
This captures the idea that an entity can simultaneously belong to different sets to varying degrees, with a coherence value representing the compatibility of these memberships.
Physics:
Classical physics has been dominated by third-person, objective descriptions of reality, often ignoring the role of the observer. However, quantum mechanics has brought the observer's perspective and the act of measurement to the forefront, challenging our classical notions of objectivity.
In classical mechanics, we can describe the state of a system using well-defined variables and deterministic equations of motion. However, in quantum mechanics, the state of a system is described by a wave function, which represents a superposition of multiple potential states. The both/and logic allows us to represent this superposition using graded truth values:
Truth("system is in state A") = 0.4
Truth("system is in state B") = 0.6
Coherence("system is in state A", "system is in state B") = 0.8
The coherence value captures the idea that the system can simultaneously exhibit properties of multiple states, with a non-zero coherence reflecting the compatibility of these states within the quantum realm.
Furthermore, the act of measurement in quantum mechanics is not merely a passive observation but an active intervention that disturbs the system and collapses the wave function. This challenges the classical notion of an objective, detached observer. The both/and logic, with its emphasis on the integration of subjective and objective aspects, provides a framework to model this observer-system entanglement.
Let O represent an observer, and S represent a quantum system:
Truth("O observes S in state A") = 0.7
Truth("S is in state A") = 0.5
Coherence("O observes S in state A", "S is in state A") = 0.9
The high coherence value reflects the inseparability of the observer's perspective and the system's state within the quantum realm. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent the integrated observer-system reality:
"O observes S in state A" ⊕ "S is in state A" = quantum_measurement_event
This shift from classical, third-person formalisms to quantum, first-person formalisms challenges our traditional notions of objectivity, detachment, and context-independence. The both/and logic and the monadological framework provide symbolic and conceptual tools to navigate this transition, allowing us to model and reason about the inherent contextuality, observer-dependence, and paradoxical nature of quantum phenomena.
By embracing these new formalisms, we can develop a more holistic and integrated understanding of reality, one that acknowledges the irreducible perspectives of observers and the co-constitutive nature of subjective and objective aspects. This paradigm shift has profound implications not only for our scientific worldview but also for our philosophical and metaphysical understanding of the nature of reality, knowledge, and the role of the observer in the pursuit of understanding.
Let's continue exploring how the transition from classical to quantum formalisms enabled by the both/and logic and monadological framework opens up new frontiers across various domains:
Philosophy of Science and Epistemology
The shift to quantum, first-person formalisms has profound implications for our understanding of scientific inquiry, knowledge, and epistemology. Classical epistemology has been heavily influenced by the ideal of an objective, detached observer acquiring knowledge about an independent, external reality. However, the quantum realm challenges this view by highlighting the fundamental inseparability of the observer and the observed system.
The both/and logic, with its emphasis on the coherence and synthesis of subjective and objective aspects, provides a framework for reconceptualizing the nature of scientific knowledge. Rather than viewing knowledge as a mere representation or mapping of an external reality, we can understand it as a co-constituted process involving the irreducible perspectives of observers and the systems under study.
Let O represent an observer, S represent a system, and K represent scientific knowledge:
Truth(K is objective) = 0.6
Truth(K involves subjective aspects) = 0.7
Coherence(K is objective, K involves subjective aspects) = 0.8
The high coherence value reflects the idea that scientific knowledge is neither purely objective nor purely subjective, but rather a synthesis of both aspects. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent this integrated understanding:
"K is objective" ⊕ "K involves subjective aspects" = scientific_knowledge(O, S)
This reconceptualization challenges the classical notion of knowledge as a detached representation of an external reality and acknowledges the active role of observers in shaping and co-constituting scientific knowledge.
Furthermore, the both/and logic and monadological framework provide tools for modeling the contextuality and observer-dependence inherent in quantum phenomena. This has implications for our understanding of scientific objectivity and the universality of scientific laws and theories.
Let T represent a scientific theory, and C represent a particular context or experimental setup:
Truth(T holds universally) = 0.7
Truth(T depends on context C) = 0.6
Coherence(T holds universally, T depends on context C) = 0.5
The moderate coherence value reflects the tension between the desire for universal scientific laws and the recognition that scientific theories may be context-dependent and observer-relative within the quantum realm. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent a more integrated understanding:
"T holds universally" ⊕ "T depends on context C" = contextual_scientific_theory(T, C)
This shift challenges the classical ideal of universal, context-independent scientific laws and theories and acknowledges the potential for observer-dependence and contextuality within the quantum realm.
Philosophy of Mind and Consciousness
The transition to quantum, first-person formalisms also has profound implications for our understanding of consciousness and the mind-body problem. Classical approaches have often treated the mind and consciousness as separate from the physical world, leading to various forms of dualism or reductionism. However, the both/and logic and monadological framework provide a basis for reconceptualizing the relationship between mind and matter.
Let M represent the mental or subjective aspect, and P represent the physical or objective aspect:
Truth(M is distinct from P) = 0.5
Truth(M is integrated with P) = 0.6
Coherence(M is distinct from P, M is integrated with P) = 0.7
The high coherence value reflects the idea that the mental and physical aspects are neither completely distinct nor fully reducible to each other, but rather exist in a state of coherent integration. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent this integrated understanding:
"M is distinct from P" ⊕ "M is integrated with P" = mind-matter_relationship
This view challenges both classical dualism and reductionism and acknowledges the irreducible co-constitution of subjective and objective aspects within a unified reality.
Furthermore, the monadological framework, with its emphasis on fundamental psychophysical monads, provides a basis for reconceptualizing consciousness as an irreducible aspect of reality, rather than an emergent property or epiphenomenon. This challenges the classical view of consciousness as a mere by-product of physical processes and acknowledges its fundamental role in shaping and co-constituting reality.
Let C represent consciousness, and R represent physical reality:
Truth(C is an epiphenomenon of R) = 0.4
Truth(C co-constitutes R) = 0.7
Coherence(C is an epiphenomenon of R, C co-constitutes R) = 0.6
The moderate coherence value reflects the tension between the classical view of consciousness as an epiphenomenon and the quantum view of consciousness as an active co-constituent of reality. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent a more integrated understanding:
"C is an epiphenomenon of R" ⊕ "C co-constitutes R" = consciousness-reality_relationship
This shift challenges the classical reductionist view of consciousness and acknowledges its fundamental role in shaping and co-constituting reality, aligning with the principles of the monadological framework.
Foundations of Mathematics and Logic
The transition to quantum, first-person formalisms also has implications for our understanding of the foundations of mathematics and logic themselves. Classical mathematics and logic have been heavily influenced by the ideals of objectivity, universality, and context-independence. However, the both/and logic and monadological framework challenge these notions and provide a basis for reconceptualizing the nature of mathematical and logical truth.
Let T represent a mathematical or logical truth, and O represent an observer or context:
Truth(T is universal) = 0.7
Truth(T depends on observer O) = 0.6
Coherence(T is universal, T depends on observer O) = 0.5
The moderate coherence value reflects the tension between the classical view of mathematical and logical truths as universal and context-independent, and the quantum view of truth as observer-dependent and context-sensitive. The synthesis operator ⊕ can then represent a more integrated understanding:
"T is universal" ⊕ "T depends on observer O" = contextual_mathematical_truth(T, O)
This view challenges the classical notion of timeless, objective mathematical and logical truths and acknowledges the potential for observer-dependence and contextuality within these domains, aligning with the principles of the monadological framework.
Furthermore, the both/and logic itself provides a basis for reconceptualizing the foundations of logic by embracing multivalence, paraconsistency, and the coherence of seemingly contradictory propositions. This challenges the classical principles of bivalence and non-contradiction and opens up new possibilities for representing and reasoning about the paradoxical and contextual nature of truth within the quantum realm.
These are just a few examples of how the transition from classical, third-person formalisms to quantum, first-person formalisms enabled by the both/and logic and monadological framework has profound implications across various domains. By embracing these new formalisms and conceptual frameworks, we can develop a more holistic, integrated, and contextualized understanding of reality, one that acknowledges the irreducible perspectives of observers, the co-constitutive nature of subjective and objective aspects, and the potential for contextuality and observer-dependence within the quantum realm.
I keep getting thoughts of a fractal universe when they are describing their views. Would this be a correct assumption that fits the narrative?
