Where does your "mind" come from? Easy answer: Your brain...right?

Think again.

It's hard to believe, there is no explanation in modern science how a brain could create our subjective experience of being alive ("consciousness"). Science Magazine has called this "hard problem" the #2 question remaining in all of science.

Where Is My Mind? explores a revolutionary hypothesis: What if consciousness comes from outside the body? The show is hosted by Mark Gober, a consciousness researcher and author of An End to Upside Down Thinking, who happens to be a former Wall Street banker working in Silicon Valley.

Why does this show matter? Well, if consciousness is not native to the brain, would phenomena like telepathy, precognition, near-death experiences, afterdeath communications, and so much more not only be possible... but be PREDICTED?

Plus, what happens when we die? Are psychics real? How could a young child accurately report memories of someone else's life and death?

The implications could shift our collective worldview and even impact how we treat one another... so don't miss it.

Really

wanted to like this, but it’s just not for me. Five stars for your work on the EOC online event and on other pods discussing freedom and government—that I can sink my teeth into. This topic is not for me, but fascinating that a finance guy ended up studying this stuff. Would love to hear a series about your current book topics. Thanks.

Where we come from

From a neurological science perspective this path to overcome disbelief in “brain/biological” consciousness control makes sense, but I found this data to fit my Christian worldview quite closely. Most of these things make sense with a single God, a network of strongly interconnected spirits, and even the life assessment—and the literal commandment to “love thy neighbor as thyself”. Most of us already believe in a spiritual life experienced on Earth. I like the idea of learning to better utilize the spirit to work through the blindfold of the mind—and in the end of this series, that is what I heard. Well researched and cleverly presented.

Last, from a thermodynamic law perspective, evolution isn’t a possible theory unless something is adding energy to this universe. The idea of God and spiritual energy also fills this gap.

Walking away, there is a lot more to consider here.

Excellent

Very well done look at the issue of our understanding of consciousness.
