Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13718874 "According to the theory, consciousness is derived from" This is a logical inference of the consciousness of the 'thinker'. There is no "derived from". The connection between cause and effect is an intrinsic assumption of the consciousness of the 'thinker'; which is used not only to describe the space-time reality; but, also, to preserve the continuity over time of the consciousness of the "self"; that is, to prevent the consciousness of the "self" from collapsing into psych*sis, as described in the opening passages of the Second Meditation of Descartes.

Quoting: Ozi dude 33775973 (Sigh) You are merely articulating the general assumption of the consciousness of the 'thinker' that it is the consciousness of the 'thinker' itself which is the end all and be all of consciousness itself, the only dimension of consciousness capable of apprehending reality. There is also the consciousness of the "self", which is expressed in such things as poetry and the lyrics of songs. And there is also a third dimension of consciousness beyond the "self" and the 'thinker' which cannot be apprehended by the scientific method since it originates in the consciousness of the 'thinker'.

Sinai' challenged. Because it considers itself 'God', it considers its thoughts to be 'Revelations' from 'God'; that is, something which should not be challenged. Anger comes from the consciousness of the "self". Michael |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 28948108 Of course. Of course. Both the scientists and the theologians operate on the basis of the consciousness of the 'thinker'. Don't be naive. Doctors do not want to heal you. They want to 'manage' your disease. Because, if they were to heal you, you would no longer have to pay them. Theologians don't care about Truth; they care about theology. Because if they ever allowed you to understand the Truth, they would be out of a job. Similar for the scientists of consciousness, who have their pride, their publishing careers and their jobs to preserve. All they care about is self-preservation of the scientific paradigm rather than a genuine understanding of consciousness. They don't want to be unemployed. Michael |

Simply because it has no meaning for the consciousness of the 'thinker', does not mean that it has no meaning. So, tell me, how do you objectively observe the 'thinker'? How do you objectively observe thought? There is the bias of the 'thinker'; the function of which is to preserve the "self" from psychosis. It has a 'dog in the fight'. If the consciousness of the 'thinker' collapses, psychosis emerges. That's a fact. Michael |

Personally I do not believe they have found the soul, but that does not mean a soul doesnt exist.
