   A proponent of the view that we are essentially persons in the present sense, however, may hold that practical considerations—such as the impossibility of drawing a clear line between sentient persons and sentient nonpersons, and the potential for abuse of the elderly—recommend the capacity for consciousness as the only safe line to draw, thereby vindicating the higher-brain view (Engelhardt 1996, 250). Meanwhile, other proponents of the view that we are essentially persons (e.g., Bartlett and Youngner 1988) apparently hold that any member of our species who retains the capacity for consciousn…

   Yeah, I sort of recognize it when I was more, you know, I was brought up Christian. My dad was a minister, so I know what you wanted to experience that direct religious experience. And I could just not get there somehow And I tried all techniques that the religion I was in sort of gave you. You're not just going to large events and singing pop songs about Jesus and trying to just get there, you know, and and it didn't work for me. So I know that sort of pain and also only through, psychedelic substances that I sort of first got there. But, what also, I found interesting to sort of translate a …

   Now, one problem with the gross physical body is it's temporary. Yes. Yeah, it has a beginning and an end. And at some point, one may feel like doing something, but one won't be able to do it. And at a certain point, one won't even be able to perceive any sensation from the gross physical body. But the mental body will still be there. And what happens is at the time of death, the mental body is in a certain state as a result of the accumulation of all of its activities during its period of association with a particular gross physical body. And that mental state will determine the next gross ph…

   You have the translation from Dennis Redmond, which is a little bit less literary, but also more can can be not always, but can be more accurate. Oops, not this one. Okay, this is Let me at his table of contents. I'm just going to look at his um Yeah. Self-reflection of thought. Let's see if this is the same section. Yeah. So, this is actually we'll see a kind of a significantly different. The power of consciousness reaches all the way into its own deception. It is rationally cognizable where a detached rationality has run away from itself becomes false turns truly into mythology is a little b…

   "We live in succession, in division, in parts, in particles. Meantime within man is the soul of the whole; the wise silence; the universal beauty, to which every part and particle is equally related, the eternal ONE. And this deep power in which we exist and whose beatitude is all accessible to us, is not only self-sufficing and perfect in every hour, but the act of seeing and the thing seen, the seer and the spectacle, the subject and the object, are one. We see the world piece by piece, as the sun, the moon, the animal, the tree; but the whole, of which these are shining parts, is the soul".

   The substrate of the synthesis is thus held to be reconciled with the eye and therefore to be good which promptly permits the moral desitter that the subject understanding how much the cause is its own should bow to what is heterogeneous to it. Identity is the primal form of ideology. We relish it as adequacy to the thing it suppresses. Adequacy has always been subjection to dominant purposes and in that sense its own contradiction. All right, we we talked about this last night. Ideology's power of resistance to enlightenment is owed to its complicity with identifying thought or indeed with th…

   A conscious self may be in a plant body and then in an animal body. Maybe an ape body, an ape man body and then a human body. Mhm. The human vehicle I believe is a very special one because in the human vehicle it's possible to understand what our real position is as conscious selves and do something about it. uh restore consciousness to its original pure state beyond the world of matter, beyond the cycle of reincarnation and karma. And that that's the actual goal of human life as far as I'm concerned to restore consciousness to its original pure state to appreciate I'm a being of pure consciou…

    Except in rare illusory or pathological cases, we never feel fully disembodied. James (1890: 242), for instance, claims that we are constantly conscious of the presence of our body, although at the margin of the stream of our consciousness: Our own bodily position, attitude, condition, is one of the things of which some awareness, however inattentive, invariably accompanies the knowledge of whatever else we know. What is the content of this marginal body consciousness? James (1890: 242) alludes to a “feeling of the same old body always there” or a mere “feeling of warmth and intimacy” but can …
