Philosophy Consciousness

The Curious Case of the Pheromonophone is an audio story that takes you on an irreverent, true-life adventure with one of Silicon Valley’s successful failed inventors - Jonathon Keats. A philosopher, an inventor and an artist, Keats has been inventing janky contraptions for over two decades, like a factory you can control with your mind and an emotionally responsive car. In this story he debuts one of his new inventions, what he calls a“pheromonophone” - a kind of smell telephone that can send your personal scent over digital networks.

"Awaken to Love" offers an integrated approach that unites diverse elements into a cohesive path towards restoring wholeness and presence. Drawing from IFS, Jungian psychology, psychosynthesis, and nonduality teachings, it introduces the "path of duonity"—a nested model that honors the distinct aspects of our being while recognizing their inseparability from the whole.

On Inhumanity is bracing and vital listen in a world lurching towards authoritarian political regimes, resurgent white nationalism, refugee crises that breed nativist hostility, and fast-spreading racist rhetoric.

Una nueva y radical interpretación žižekiana de Hegel —el hombre y su obra—, un gigante de la filosofía que cambiará nuestra forma de pensar en la era poshumana en la que nos adentramos. Lejos de ser un estudio corriente, Hegel y el cerebro conectado nos muestra nuestro mundo actual bajo una perspectiva hegeliana. Slavoj Žižek analiza las consecuencias de la creación de un vínculo entre nuestros procesos mentales y una máquina digital y explora el concepto de singularidad al que da lugar el hecho de compartir con otras personas nuestras experiencias y pensamientos.

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.

En esta obra Jacobo Grinberg retoma una idea compartida por los estudios fisiológicos del cerebro y la filosofía: el mundo exterior es una descripción basada enprocesos y operaciones que ocurren en nuestro interior, es decir, en nuestro cerebro y conciencia. De este modo, lo que llamamos “realidad” sería un constructo basado en la activación de ciertos patrones neuronales mediante la percepción, según explica el propio autor.

Ruby Wax - comedian, writer and mental health campaigner - shows us how our minds can jeopardize our sanity. With her own periods of depression and now a Masters from Oxford in Mindfulness-based Cognitive Therapy to draw from, she explains how our busy, chattering, self-critical thoughts drive us to anxiety and stress. If we are to break the cycle, we need to understand how our brains work, rewire our thinking and find calm in a frenetic world.

"Le titre de cette conférence est "L'âme et le corps", c'est-à-dire la matière et l'esprit, c'est-à-dire tout ce qui existe et même, s'il faut en croire une philosophie dont nous parlerons tout à l'heure, quelque chose aussi qui n'existerait pas. Mais rassurez-vous. Notre intention n'est pas d'approfondir la nature de la matière, pas plus d'ailleurs que la nature de l'esprit. On peut distinguer deux choses l'une de l'autre, et en déterminer jusqu'à un certain point les rapports, sans pour cela connaître la nature de chacune d'elles.

In Out of Our Heads, he restates and reexamines the problem of consciousness, and then proposes a startling solution: Do away with the 200-year-old paradigm that places consciousness within the confines of the brain.

Thinkers everywhere are conscious of two things, first, that the region of mystery has never before been so clearly defined, and secondly, that that region can be entered more easily than has hitherto been the case; it may, therefore, perhaps be induced to render up some of its secrets if investigators of all schools pursue their search with determination.

Why is life worth living? What makes actions right or wrong? What is reality and how do we know it? The Brain and the Meaning of Life draws on research in philosophy, psychology, and neuroscience to answer some of the most pressing questions about life's nature and value.

We all long for boundless love as we long for home. But how can we find our home our meaning and purpose if we don't know our self? Wise-Love is an exploration of the self, or consciousness, guided through the meditative eyes of saints, sages, seers, and mystics. As we embark on the journey to the self, we discover that the self's most charming characteristic part of its eternal, unchanging nature is that it is a lover, a lover who can be satisfied only when ordinary love evolves into wise-love.

What drives all of your life’s priorities, values, and decisions? In the sequel to An End to Upside Down Thinking, Mark Gober builds a science-based worldview from which we can create a compass for living. In stark contrast to his prior belief system, Gober explains why life is actually full of meaning. From this perspective, he lays out how we might approach life accordingly, along with the well-traveled “awakening” path that we’re likely to encounter. Approaching life in a new way is the antidote that our civilization desperately needs.

This is not a self-help book, or a book of specific guidance. In fact, it was written because too many works that claim to help you find your way either disappear into meaningless abstraction or are so petty and particular they fall at the first hurdle, teaching control instead of acceptance. Come with Arthur and Chirag as they discuss the ways they have sought understanding and progress over time, both within and without.
