Re: Criticism

That we entangle in consciousness does not in any way imply we and what we entangled with are the same thing. Further, thought does not immediately occur in that entanglement, but is processed from the sense data which we receive as energy and transmit to the brain as energy. Eugene is correct here...

Re: Criticism

Which makes the actual perception of energy prior to conceptualization. Even Kastrup didn’t go to this extreme when he declared ATP as a marker of consciousness, thereby reducing consciousness to energy. It undermined his the basic claim of his metaphysics that consciousness is irreducible. It’s foo...

Re: Criticism

We know energy exists because we directly experience it as such and because we measure it. You are confusing objective/rational thought with esthetic thought and experience. And what we perceive does not need to be a conscious phenomenon, but merely something that came into our own consciousness - a...

Re: Criticism

That experience reduces to consciousness (whatever that even is) in no way implies that Being can be reduced to consciousness. Actually, consciousness can be reduced to energy. Without energy there is no consciousness, but not all energy displays consciousness. Kastrup inadvertently backed into thi...

Re: Criticism

I think you are conflating the mode of experience with what is experienced. You are experiencing consciousness only in relation to something being experienced. To claim otherwise is to need to explain how you could possibly come up with everything you experience. Try writing another play as profound...

Re: Criticism

But isn't Heidegger suggesting here that Being IS Thinking? And isn't "the presence of things in the present" is actually the thinking of them, the direct knowing of them, the direct conscious experience of them? And if it's not, then any other representations of "things in the prese...
