    4. Now we understand why there has to be an inner reality which is made of qualia and an outer reality which is made a lot of symbols, shareable symbols, what we call matter.

      for - unpack - key insight - with the postulate of consciousness as the foundation, it makes sense that this is - an inner reality made of qualia - and an outer reality made of shareable symbols we call matter - Federico Faggin - question - about Federico Faggin's ideas - in what way is matter a symbol? - adjacency - poverty mentality - I am the universe who wants to know itself question - in what way is matter a symbol? - Matter is a symbol in the sense that it - we describe reality using language, both - ordinary words as well as - mathematics - It is those symbolic descriptions that DIRECT US to jump from one phenomena to another related phenomena. - After all, WHO is the knower of the symbolic descriptions? - WHAT is it that knows? Is it not, as FF points out, the universe itself - as expressed uniquely through all the MEs of the world, that knows? - Hence, the true nature of all authentic spiritual practices is that - the reality outside of us is intrinsically the same as - the reality within us - our lebenswelt of qualia

      for - question - how do you test the theory that consciousness is the foundation of reality? ( to Federico Faggin)

    7. One wants to know itself. The universe wants to know itself.

      for - quote - ONE wants to know itself; the universe wants to know itself - Federico Faggin

      quote - ONE wants to know itself; the universe wants to know itself - Federico Faggin - (see below) - ONE wants to know itself; the universe wants to know itself - and that adds the interiority to (living) nature. - This science says eliminate that by fiat. - They said<br /> - "there is no interiority" and - "consciousness is an epi-phenomena of the brain" - eliminated life, from everything. - What is our most precious thing that we have? - our humanity, our capacity - to understand - to comprehend - to have meaning - but - The meaning of life is completely thrown out the door by starting on the wrong foot. - That's all. So let's start with the right foot where we start.

    8. for - Federico Faggin (FF) - analytic idealism - consciousness - Deep Humanity

      summary - This is an good talk that introduces Federico Faggin's (FF) ideas about consciousness from the perspective of analytic idealism, the idea that consciousness is the most fundamental aspect of reality and that materialism is an epiphenomena of consciousness, not the other way around - Bernado Kastrup's organization, Essentia Foundation invited FF to the Netherlands to give a talking tour of his new - book "Irreducible" - https://www.collectiveinkbooks.com/essentia-books/our-books/irreducible-consciousness-life-computers-human-nature - and they visited the prestigous semiconductor design company ASML' facilities, - https://www.asml.com/en - where this insightful talk was delivered - FF reconciles scientific explanation with the hard problem of consciousness and our ordinary, everyday experience of consciousness - FF's theory offers - a good western, science-based explanatory framework that is consistent with - the experiential and theoretical framework from the east - from - Tibetan Buddhist - Zen Buddhist - Vedic - and other ancient ideas of emptiness<br /> - This framing heals the divide between science and religion that has created a meaning crisis in modernity - and by so doing, also addresses a core issue of the meaning crisis - mortality salience

    1. for - Federico Faggin - quantum physics - consciousness

      summary - Frederico Faggin is a physicist and microelectronic engineer who was the developer of the world's first microprocessor at Intel, the Intel 4004 CPU. - Now he focuses his attention on developing a robust and testable theory of consciousness based on quantum information theory. - What sets Frederico apart from other scientists who are studying consciousness is a series of profound personal 'awakening'-type experiences in which has led to a psychological dissolution of the sense of self bounded by his physical body - This profound experience led him to claim with unshakable certainty that our individual consciousness is far greater than our normal mundane experience of it - Having a science and engineering background, Faggin has set out to validate his experiences with a new scientific theory of Consciousness, Information and Physicality (CIP) and Operational Probabilistic Theory (OPT)

      to - Frederico Faggin's website - https://hyp.is/JTGs6lr9Ee-K8-uSXD3tsg/www.fagginfoundation.org/what-we-do/j - Federico Faggin and paper: - Hard Problem and Free Will: - an information-theoretical approach - https://hyp.is/styU2lofEe-11hO02KJC8w/link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-85480-5_5

    2. there is one thing that I want to to do on top of proving you know or disproving fact falsifying or not this theory is to finding ways in which people that are ready can have an extraordinary experience of Consciousness like did not through drugs but through methods you know way to breathe or different ways of special meditations what have you they are sufficiently welld developed that they can help the process of people experiencing themselves their Unity with one

      for - Federico Faggin - high priority objective - find and implement ways to catalyze authentic awakening experiences for those who are ready

    3. I want to figure out find out help find out ways in which we can have things where maybe at the most you need to dedicate a week of your life you know because you need to be in a special environment in order to have the the sort of the the conditions in which this can happen and can have those experiences and if say 30% of the people that claim to be ready actually have one of those experien that would be a marvelous objective to reach so that's what I'm thinking right now

    4. to me the first step for being able to grow as a human being and as a true human being and express our true nature is to takeing first responsibility for what happens in our life good and bad and the next step is to be honest about yourself so the honesty was to recognize that I was unhappy and I was pretending to be happy so I recognize what normally people do not because they don't want to change their belief and so they continue to be unhappy

      for - answer - how to experience nondual - how to experience non-separation and the authentic self - Federico Faggin

      for - quote - awakening experience - Federico Faggin

      quote - awakening experience - Federico Faggin - (see below)

      • What I was observing was energy that previously had come out of my chest and

      • It was love, joy and peace
      • I never I never had experienced peace before
      • It was like like that's me this is my home this is this is who - I am that energy then now exploded now is everywhere and now I am, my consciousness is in that energy
      • My feelings are in that consciousness, which is also outside inside your body and o
      • Outside your body is everywhere well that experience can change your idea of who you are very quickly because
        • Apart from the fact that
          • it was so profound and
          • so deeply felt to be true
        • it was a direct experience of Consciousness that I never had before and
        • it revealed that I am the totality of reality observing itself from a one point of view
    7. I had extraordinary experience of Consciousness which is written in the book uh in the in fact both books that I that I uh printed where essentially I experienc myself as the Observer and the observe but I retain my point of view I was observing the world that and the world was me because my conscious was in that world that I was observing but I was observing
