Great talk! Congrats to Stanford for allowing such a glimpse into reality.

Thank you for sharing the knowledge...Nice presentaion.

I feel like Consciousness is all there is and IT came into this body as the egg and sperm joined together their Consciousness to become One human physical being, this Being....my physical self. But really, I AM only Consciousness inhabiting this physical form called a body. Consciousness is animating this body as I listen closely and wait for IT's guidance. IT is beating my heart, breathing my lungs and animating/guiding bacteria to digest the food I eat. I AM only IT in this physical body...simple to this Being....

where do I watch the next class?

just an fyi: in the opening, when Dr Nader goes through his recap around the 2 minute mark, the subtitles suggest what he is saying to be: light motive its more likely to have been the German Leitmotiv, a term used to describe the major, recurring theme around which everything else gravitates, a term more commonly found in musictheory. thanks for making this available Greetings from Germany

the analogy Dr.Nader uses when he talks about how the reticulum is exited by a morning alarm and then stimulates the conscious perseption. I wonder if it applies to me in those cases when I have had repeated dreams about bombs about to expload every time that I heard my alarm, the fright woke me up I think. it happened many times with this particular signal, in the end I had to change the alarm. What happened?

It is a good start to recognize our conscious universe. Think about the DNA codes across all species, the consciousness behind it. Congratulations!

Wow! Take a break after 40 minutes. What a clear story and so far everything is clear to me. This is exactly what I have discovered regarding processes in the mind, identifications and ego and awareness and consciousness. I've always had a bit of a problem with "teachers" who deny everything but pure consciousness. Of course we are essentially pure consciousness (the Self), but also including the rest of the body and mind. See a picture of Ramana, that is not a picture of consciousness, but a picture of a human being. I am not only pure consciousness, but also a manifestation with body and mind.

But I understand very well the "sacred trinity": the observer, the perceiving and the observed. The observer (without the interference of the mind, etc.) is pure consciousness, the observed (by the "pure observer) is consciousness. Then can it is not otherwise that perceiving through the consciousness of consciousness is consciousness.((I suspect the google translation could be better))

Excellent!! That was the whole point of my 2001 theories and my 2003 book from my presentations. Consciousness as primary natural law. That was the title of my poster. I taught experimental methodology and so I made a new statistical hybrid methodology for seeing it working and someone actually did the research a few years later and it was among the most significant results ever found by science. But no one understood the questions it answered back then. Now everything has changed and it is amazing!! People still don’t see the full implications but we are getting there. 🥰🙏🏻👍🏻🌹

Wonderful talk, thank you

Is consciousness all there is? Could it be divided/split into subjective and objective consciousness, sentient and insentient?, is there a choice made for being in one state or another? and then are there levels?

This video seems like a summary of all theory of consciousness, however there's 1 missing: an idea that consciousness is an 'error-correction' mechanism for all type of complex mobile/motile animal, such as cats, rats, birds and human. The idea is; if sub-conscious perform all the low-level planning of limb & body movement to interact with physical world, like for something as simple as walking, our consciousness then act as observer to measure error between intention/plan with its outcome, thus allow learning & correction. Those mechanism cannot work without a complete 'replication' of our body senses & perception of physical world in our brain, thus when that happen "conscious" existed.

Your assertion that those mechanisms cannot work without a complete replication, etc., does not ring true. One basic concept in the design of systems is exception-handling, where an exception or error may pass only a piece of information describing the exception or error. The information may include arbitrary amount of detail, but in no sense does it require a complete replication of the system.

​@@DavidMichaelKalman the programmers of those system have a mental model of the software's behaviour, so when an 'exceptional-event' occurs the programmer refer back to his mental model and implement a "bug fixes" to return the system to normal behaviour. In this case the software don't have a consciousness of its own but outsourced the image of its own body to the programmers. ("Exception" is a condition in a software where it encounters error which the programmer didn't expect, like for example requesting a file but the file didn't exist and the programmer didn't code a system to handle it, so it typically handle it on its own by simply "throwing" error to user as alternate mean of handling the situation and proceed with crashing or continues operating with glitchy & aberrant behaviour),

The would be able to be the observer of the pre-conscious, before language, symbols and pictures. In comparison to the universal consciousness our limited ratio is primitive. The consciousness of the older beings on the planets is higher and not lower than ours, as long as we are no longer in the conscious state and mix reality with our rational concepts, we won't be able to look "animals" with dignity in to the eyes and connect with plants and other life forms that spring out of the unified field of consciousness.

Your everyday focus bounces between female and masculine energy, positive and negative, warm emotions and cold thinking. Each having its own habbitual way of behaving. Observe your thoughts and routine and the way these sync and correlates. Observing is conscious attention focused inward. Scale up your awareness to the point where you can easily observe your behaviour in a given context. If this infers with your home/family life, think about the routine you follow regarding your closed ones. The power of observation is the supreme/divine power one can use to clearly understand what's happening. This implies a masculine, negative, cold thinking process as it requires stillness, rewiring neuronal pathways instead of wasting energy contracting muscles or overuse other internal organs. Remember you're pure energy materialized that is still and alive at the same time. I hope this helps you and I wish you all the best!

compassion for differences is ok. homo sapiens operate at different stages of consciousness(cs). as one evolves thru stages, there is greater perspectives and understanding. once beyond the linear 3D causal, we can experience a way of being that resonates with love/peace and begin experiencing nonlinear, multi-dimensional ways of being. so, some of us listening to these lectures will not get the full messages and that's ok. ultimately, it's all perfect. when one is ready, the appropriate message arrives, and we get it. being open to "hearing" different conceptual streams may be helpful for expansion of cs. anyway, relax and enjoy life and have fun.

Alexandre Gurchumelia There's published research on teh physiology of _samadhi_ AKA "pure consciousness" aka "transcendental consciousness" during TM practice: e.g.: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/7045911 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6377350 www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/9009807 There's also published research on how an unassailable sense-of-self starts to emerge in the TM practitioner after many thousands of hours of TM practice alternated with normal activity. This review article goes over the preliminary physiological and psychological research on people who report such a sense-of-self being present at all times, whether waking, dreaming or in deep sleep, for at least one year: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/nyas.12316/full TM theory says that people who have such a permanent sense-of-self are in the first of several higher states of consciousness called "enlightenment." Yogic tradition says that higher states exist beyond that first stage, and some of the people interviewed in the studies appear to be in these higher states, but there's not enough subjects in each different state to allow physiological analysis of such small sub-groups of subjects. Eventually, it is hoped, there will be, and the studies on the physiological correlates of someone who perceives that they are "one with the universe" would then be published.

Alexandre Gurchumelia Tony Nader is the official, hand-picked successor of Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, who founded the Transcendental Meditation organization. MMY was calling for his students to study the effects of TM scientifically as far back as 1959. One of his students published his PhD research on the Physiology of Transcendental Meditation in _Science_ in 1970, which is considered teh first "modern" study on meditation. MMY had to defend himself against his own students because they were so anti-science back in the late 50's/early 60's. This comment is the basis for all modern research on TM, so there's not a possibility of non-physical claims being made by any researcher publishing research on TM who agrees with MMY on the subject (in other words, no non-physical process claims are made). Note that the term "consciousness" refers to *human* consciousness, not "universal consciousness" -THAT is referred to obliquely as "wholeness of life which is present everywhere": *Every experience has its level of physiology, and so unbounded awareness has its own level of physiology which can be measured. Every aspect of life is integrated and connected with every other phase. When we talk of scientific measurements, it does not take away from the spiritual experience. We are not responsible for those times when spiritual experience was thought of as metaphysical. Everything is physical. Consciousness is the product of the functioning of the brain. Talking of scientific measurements is no damage to that wholeness of life which is present everywhere and which begins to be lived when the physiology is taking on a particular form. This is our understanding about spirituality: it is not on the level of faith --it is on the level of blood and bone and flesh and activity. It is measurable.* -Maharishi Mahesh Yogi

Consciousness is associated with “Thinking” and is independent of “Thinking”. This thought is understood only by Consciousness.

Consciousness - is - and starts by seeing - oneself - as a skeleton - listening - to words. It is there but it is because of the constant movement of time space veil that we are all in, can't catch it because it is in us. and thus we see ourselves differently loosing the skeleton format starter pack. Consciousness is a vibration i think the brain should be able to tap into. but there is no words to describe it nor something to prove it ... yet.

brill.

Many confuse the contents of consciousness with consciousness itself, the main theory is that of neuronal networks, mainly because people think the brain is mainly composed of neurons & networks sounds more specific & knowledgeable than "it's neurons!", however I would suggest that the Glial network is a better candidate for consciousness, whilst the neuronal network a better candidate for the contents of consciousness, my reasoning is thus: when people meditate their brain waves phase lock with the first peak frequency of the Schumann resonance at theta 7.8 htz, according to Robert Becker in "The Body Electric", the Glial system which utilizes an analogue semi-conductive flow of holes which because of their relative slow movement, are affected by external magnetic fields via the transverse Hall effect. My contention is that it's the magnetic component of the Schumann resonance that's affecting the holes in the Glial cells & therefore the brain waves, further I believe that when the Glial operate on neurons voluntary attention is at work,whilst when neurons affect the Glial cells involuntary attention is happening.

So do I believe just because your talking at a respected school means I should listen to you? No, of course not. In fact I would not listen to anybody on any platform with a position of unquestionable acceptance. This case is very special. The man is speaking about a new emerging paradigm of thinking. A field of research which is getting tons of looks at by all the cutting edge minds in Science, hence, Stanford. It's actually a really fascinating topic. Which ties together nonlinear dynamics with the Newtonian paradigm. Cheers :)

The answer to the "hard problem" is that one who is conscious, is one who has beliefs. A worm has consciousness because it has beliefs such as that if it eats the soil it will appease the feeling of hunger. A robin has consciousness because it has beliefs such as that eating a worm and building a nest will appease instinctual feelings. A human has consciousness because it has beliefs such as the belief that if it opens its eyes, it will see the place surrounding where it is, and the belief that what it sees, hears, feels, tastes, touches, thinks, and believes, is somehow real.

For all individuals questioning this presentation, watch the movie "David Wants to Fly" regarding Transendental Meditation and you will find the truth about what he is saying. Dr. Nader is stating some truths about science however he is speaking generally. The hard problem is more well presented by philosopher David Chalmers. Universities have tried to sell their wares from the beginning of education. Consciousness is very subjective however we seem to all know that we have some form of it. This is a question that scientists have tried to figure out for years. The Integrated Information Theory is the one theory created by Dr. Giulio Tononi that is now giving some promise to the answer of this question from an empirical scientific perspective without the usage of words like pure consciousness. This presentation is one which is trying to push the movement of the late Maharish Mahesh Yogi who was the guru to the Beatles who looked to meditation to answer the question of consciousness. Do your own research and find out for yourself, don't take my word for it. Individuals who hold onto a theistic perspective with unabashed certainty fail to take the necessary time to uncover the quantifiable information which can come from examining a phenomenon more deeply.

Sure, consciousness is primary and only appears as matter. & matter creates consciousness. Samkhya & Buddhism has found that 2500 years ago. Simply (emphasized) stated, Buddhism says that matter creates consciousness AND consciousness creates matter. So, over time, consciousness (collective consciousness) created matter (of which we are part). Then ourSelves (pudgala) created our consciousness (and uploaded collective consciousness as well; as conscious & subconscious). Then, in turn, our consciousness creates matter. No big deal! Looking at consciousness is looking back at the process of collective consciousness building matter, and matter building consciousness. A ludicrous adventure in the past, with a no less pretentious and ludicrous claim to bring our "contribution" to that collective consciousness.
