#1739 - Philip Goff - The Joe Rogan Experience

Few things that weren't mentioned:

DMT Awareness vs. consciousness. "Awareness" is an empty conscious state, without information processing. when Joe asked if the word consciousness was not complex enough--he got it backwards. It's too complicated. They needed a simpler word to describe what they were talking about, and that word is "awareness ."

Joe never understood that Panpsychism is that reality is IN consciousness, while he continually continued to ask questions revealing that he didn't understand the entire premise. Right after Goff says (and repeats many times) that consciousness is FUNDAMENTAL, Joe asks questions like "So, when does it EMERGE?" It doesn't emerge, it is FUNDAMENTAL.

Goff should have said "awareness is what separates something from nothing." If there is something in reality, that fundamental presence IS awareness, and nothing more or less.
