Ive said for a long time that KoKo, the gorilla, taught us that humans made an error in attempting to manage abstract thought with far too little information about abstract thinking.
23:10 Try to imagine the left side, right side nerves signals crossing each others paths. Think about the bilateral body that need to be aware of what the other side is doing or feeling. From a subconscious utilitarian perspective - what better way for the sides of the body to be aware of the other, than by having the nerve signs cross each other at a strategic place (corpus callosum )? As Dr. Solms points out: 'Our consciousness is the inside reflection of our body/brain dealing with itself and the environment it exists within.' I imagine that this internal neural crossover is the key to animal consciousness arising as it does. (Perhaps it primal breakthrough, the foundation of our self-aware human style consciousness.)
What you see depends on your approach. Approach it like a machine (imperial)and you see a machine. You have a brain to which you have direct access. Why not analyze what you have without bias? Start without the bias that a brain is a brain with no variation.
This makes me wonder about autism. It seems those individuals operate much more out of the left hemisphere, and they seem to have many fewer skills associated with the right hemisphere.
I apologize for having no interest in shaping the world and reality, whether with my brain, or with my heart, or with my whatever. Live and let live. I don't like to be manipulated, influenced, trained and I don't like to do the same with other people either.
Your lack of interest in it, means that your reality will be shaped unwittingly by your subconscious. You will be prisoner to that, the biases, cognitive distortions, narratives, if you are not curious about how your particular reality is formed. Pretty ironic. You don't want to find out about it, shape it, because you don't want to be manipulated etc....yet by not understanding, exploring, you will be controlled by your lack of awareness! It is better to learn how to use our minds and live intentionally...than have our minds run our lives & we have no clue. Your own ignorance will be a saboteur!
#1 podcast on the internet !!!!!!
So so glad I found this.
Please dont stop the great work!
I strongly urged DK to interview Iain a year ago. I guess others did as well. Wonderful conversation!

This is one of the best hidden forces episodes so far. Congrats to the team!

Starts at 4:50
I love you, Torbjørn
thanks
Good stuff
Is the host of this podcast an A.I. voice?
Yeah, something wrong with that one. I've seen some of the titles of his other videos as well. Poor guy.
Iain is spelled with an I NOT Ian as poster says...

I felt like I was listening to Yoda for a second.

The interviewer is too much of a left hemisphere person. Too much organised conversation....
