Philosophy Consciousness

Solo integral es la modalidad más extrema de escalada. En su práctica, el escalador se juega la vida en cada uno de sus movimientos. Este conjunto de artículos (cien publicados y otros cien inéditos) reflejan el espíritu crítico y a contracorriente de Fernando Savater. El autor se pone a prueba en esta revisión de sus ideas no solo porque puede llegar a contradecirse, sino porque, al ser textos independientes, que no están adscritos a un medio de comunicación, puede pensar, escribir y opinar de una forma totalmente libre.

Consciousness created the cosmos. It is the immortal, all-pervasive, omnipotent expanse of energy, which connects all mind and matter that has been or exists and will exist in future. Human perception is in spirit, creator, or divinity. Cosmic consciousness is the infinite intelligence which is the source and the cause of all existence. Cosmic consciousness is defined for our comprehension by whatever terminology and form that human minds can conjure up. Otherwise, infinite intelligence sustains everything. The unified field connects all mind and matter.

Consciousness is a virtual simulator par excellence and as such allows humans to have a rolodex of potential strategies when navigating in a world with ever-changing competitive concerns and environmental niches...The advent of virtual and augmented reality may serve as a useful pathway to better understand why consciousness evolved the way it did, primarily because the brain itself operates as a VR system, albeit a much more sophisticated one than Oculus Rift or HTC Vive.

Can we ever truly comprehend the universe before we fully understand consciousness and the wonders, and limits, of the mind? Ulf Danielsson, an acclaimed theoretical physicist who has dedicated his career to probing the deepest mysteries of nature, thinks not. As he dismantles the arguments of esteemed mathematicians and scientists, who would substitute their mathematical models for reality and equate the mind to a computer, he makes a lucid and passionate case that it is nature, full of beauty and meaning, which must compel us.

Sound interesting? The author thinks so too! Listen to The Change Agent and learn about paradigm shifts in consciousness.

In Propelled, Andreas Elpidorou makes a lively case for the value of discontent and illustrates how boredom, frustration, and anticipation are good for us.

Susan Shumsky is a successful author in the new age/spirituality field, writing books on meditation, intuition, prayer, auras, chakras, and the like. But in the 1970s, she was one of only a handful of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s personal attendants and administrators, in India, Switzerland, and elsewhere. Following the teachings of Maharishi displaced Susan’s devotion to the hippie lifestyle, as she learned about meditation and grew spiritually self-aware. Maharishi founded the spiritual movement TM (Transcendental Meditation).

Taiji (pronounced Tie-jee) is an excellent system of exercise characterized by spiraling, supple, lithe movements, but it is much more than just a mild exercise. Taiji can also be used as an effective martial art, moving meditation, a way by which blood, nerve, and lymph blockages can be reduced, as well as reducing needless tensions, thus improving health; a way to develop good balance and power, clearer thinking, smooth and more effective actions, and is even able to make one better looking.

Enough is a practical explanation of the Planetary Health Diet's research, allowing everyone to understand the science and to adopt its recommendations in our daily lives. The PHD specifies the food groups we should be eating. But what does a diet composed of, for example, 30% carbohydrates really look like? Which carbs, exactly? The diet is largely plant-based but does encompass meat and fish - but how many servings?

How can science teach us that animals feel no pain when our common sense observations tell us otherwise? Bernard Rollin offers welcome insight into questions like this in his ground-breaking account of the difficult and controversial issues surrounding the use of animals. He demonstrates that the denial of animal consciousness and animal suffering is not an essential feature of a scientific approach, but rather a contingent, historical aberration that can and must be changed if science is to be both coherent and morally responsible.

Warum positives Denken uns nicht weiterbringt, Schimpfen aber schon. Dieses Hörbuch ist ein Aufruf zum Widerstand gegen die Ideologie unserer Zeit: den Zwang des Glücks. Ratgeber und Duschbäder fordern uns auf, positiv zu sein. Wir sollen Scheitern als Chance begreifen und ständig unser Selbst entfalten. Doch der Terror des Positiven nervt, belastet uns alle und schwächt den Zusammenhalt: Wir betrachten Glück als Prestige und verstehen politische Probleme als persönliches Versagen. Das zeigt nicht nur die psychologische Forschung, sondern auch die Geschichte.

This revolutionary treatise starts from one fundamental premise: that our phenomenal consciousness includes direct experience of value. For too long, ethical theorists have looked for value in external states of affairs or reduced value to a projection of the mind onto them. The result, unsurprisingly, is widespread antirealism about ethics. In this book, Sharon Hewitt Rawlette turns our metaethical gaze inward and dares us to consider that value, rather than being something “out there”, is a quality woven into the very fabric of our conscious experience, in a highly objective way.

Some will find unraveling the true nature of God to be the most interesting, enlightening, and intellectual journey they have ever taken. Others will find it offensive. Each is an indicator of the current intellectual structure of their mind.

Lo que experimentamos como conciencia despierta es sólo una fracción del alcance total de la conciencia de que disponemos. Este libro introducirá el concepto de turiya, o consciencia pura, y explicará cómo puede acceder a este vasto almacén de conocimiento y consciencia.

اجتمع سبعة حكماء، قدموا من جهات العالم الأربع، إثر إحساسهم بقرب وقوع كارثة هائلة على مستوى كوكب الأرض، اجتمعوا لنقل مفاتيح الحكمة الشاملة إلى مراهقَين صغيرين. لقد ارتكزوا، بغض الطرف عن اختلاف وجهات نظرهم الثقافية والتاريخية المتعلقة بتقاليدهم الخاصة، على اختباراتهم الشخصية، مستوحين من الفلاسفة القدامى ما أطلق عليه هؤلاء تسمية "روح العالم"

There are eight billion people on this planet and the idea, or box of "NORMAL" that we try to live in is as varied as there are people. Who has the authority to tell us how to behave? It's not natural, it's not right, and it causes stress and illness for far too many humans. This book is a guide to finding freedom and understanding how to understand ourselves. It's a guide to becoming human being and enjoying life.

Dis-moi ce que tu ne peux concevoir et je te dirai les limites de ta pensée! Pourquoi est-il si difficile d'envisager sereinement le contraire de nos opinions? Les oppositions semblent pourtant indispensables à la structuration de notre esprit. À commencer par le bien et le mal, le vrai et le faux, le juste et l'injuste. Philosopher à travers les contraires est un combat à pratiquer avec nous-mêmes pour enfin réfléchir. À recommander pour se libérer des raideurs qui nous paralysent et prendre plaisir à entrevoir l'unité de l'être à travers ses oppositions.
