I Like Mindfulness, Awareness, And Consciousness
On another note in referring to consciousness I said.
It is an emergent syncretic state that derives as a compound function of the interaction of the mental constituents with their environment, Geoff_H: memory, and projected past and present states. Geoff_H: Thus in asking the question of what is consciousness one asks a question that chases a chimera and confuses, covolutes and ostructs the actually effective lines of inquiry. Joanne has left. Geoff_H: In other words to think in such terms obfuscates and misleads rather than elucidates and properly guides. : Well said. . .memory housed in what though, right? Apparently many wise folks say consciousness is primary, hence all phenomena is simply a construct of the senses, but not "real" in and of itself Anita has joined. Joanne has left. Mom_for_Cybercut has left. Geoff_H: no consciousness is NOT primary. Angelino: "mind stuff" but from what it emanates is not clear Geoff_H: It is an EMERGENT phemonenon produced as a compound function of more basic transient states produced by the dynamic activity of mentel subsystems. so has left. Angelino: Brain contained or brain independent in your view? Geoff_H: brain produced Geoff_H: but not entirely brain contained Geoff_H: as its emenations project beyond the confines of the body
