Why ?
Good questions. In my case I'm interested in reaching (mostly= younger scientists and scholars who are
genuinely skeptical, meaning befo=e their worldview has collapsed into whatever is most expedient for their =ocial or
financial security.
Science has just begun to tackle the question of consciousness. The esoteri= and mystical traditions have been
immersed in it for at least 5,O00 years= At this point, based on the preponderance of evidence from psi research, = am
inclined to believe that consciousness is indeed fundamental, in some way. Perhaps it's not a full mo=ty idealism, but
something along those lines.
In any case, the topic is important because what we think consciousness is =orms the basis of our personal sense
of self, which in turn shapes civiliznion. If our thinking is wrong (as in "we are merely meat machines, p=riod"), then
there's reason to suspect that civilization may be headed in the wrong direction. And that would not=be good for
anyone.
