Topics to cover:
❶ Defining consciousness in terms of phenomenal experience.
Phenomenology. The Universe is the size of human experience.
❷ Reaffirming the fundamentals of subjective human conscious experience, as the root of all knowledge (epistemology), and the inferences that are made through it, as also the limits of it.
Phenomenology and its neuronal correlation.
❸ Linking the easy problem of consciousness with indirect realism (Neurophenomenology).
We experience the world remotely through an online replica.
❹ A brief summary of perception and why it cannot be direct.
The predictive function of perception.
❺ Exploring neurophenomenology. The world simulation metaphor.
Reality is made of brain activity. Consciousness as a bubble (enclosed, bounded system).
❻ A quick summary of evidence that suggests the last point is actually the case.
Introducing the analogy of "ambient temperature room" with consciousness, and how its properties change as the brain shifts in activity rhythms.
❼ Sub Agents.
How the brain simulates other brains. Narratives and "virtual reality".
❽ The Solipsist property of conscious experiences.
You're alone in your private world simulation. How to deal with the weather of your private world simulation. Acknowledging the responsibility of individuality.
❾ Critique of the Human condition.
Describing the oddness of it. Why is this form of existence so bizarre? The concept of Maia. The illusion of familiarity. The architecture of human experience. Why dissociation is the friend of spiritual and intellectual awakening.
❿ Ontology Consciousness vs. Replicators.
We're an advantageous invention of these biological machines called brains. World simulations are what brains do. Human experience can be conceived as a program that has evolutionary benefits (fit and survival).
