Dr. Kastrup shares his liberating view of death as the end of dissociation, not the end of consciousness. How do the contents of our mind contribute to “mind at large” when we die? What kind of “contribution” does someone like Hitler make? Intertwined with this discussion is the role of development, and the place of identity. What is our irreducible identity that is untouched even by death? The conversation turns to viewing the unconscious mind as the obfuscated or obscured mind. What is the main source of obfuscation, and where does dark retreat fit in? Is the light of meta-cognition a form of obfuscation? What about the relationship of light to mind, and to reality, altogether? Bernardo proclaims that philosophy must be lived if it is to be genuine. He shares two major ways his view of reality has positively affected his life, and two ways he has been challenged by his own views. What does Dr. Kastrup most want to know? See for yourself why Bernardo is a major figure in the world of philosophy, and a leading voice in the arena of nondual spirituality.

The kind of video I always hope the algorithm sends me! When I was 14 I saw some graffiti scrawled on a brick wall that said "your life is your dream" and it struck me so profoundly that it became the basis of my entire life philosophy ever since. Loved this talk so much! Thank you 🙏❤

I never get tired of listening to BK and I like Andrew and the dreams too!
-
Bernardo does a great service to the fields of psychology and psychoanalysis.
-
Bernardo is just the greatest.
-
"We unplugged from the web of instinct" might be one of the most concise, powerful statements I've ever heard.
-

You two made my Sunday evening...as I munched on an apple, I saluted the apple blossom!

2:00 sounds a lot related to Alan Watts 2:40 on "More Than Allegory: On Religious Myth, Truth And Belief" by Bernardo Kastrup 4:13 dreams 11:30 gravity 14:50 phenomena and books 20:13 on Michael Levin's science and his very probable solution for general cure of cancer (Michael Levin is one of the greatest scientists of our time, a possibly Noble prize level scientist) 34:50-38:00 metaphor on apple blossom (me and my son have just enjoyed listening to this nice metaphor); and then on dissociation and association. 54:28, 1:02:09 on sensory deprivation, and on sleep (and dream) 2:04:27 on creativity 1:05:40 on the length of life and living forever 1:17:21 nice thought experiment 1:29:00 on memory, brain, and Michael Levin, Karl Jung 1:41:58 comparing with dream 1:47:04 on the burning monk, Thích Quảng Đức 1:52:35-1:56:05 on memory, Michael Levin, #lookslike 1:57:45 what is looking at far objects in the universe 2:50:00 primordial itch, The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams, and 42 :)

“ Life / death informs God with the light of consciousness “ Jung’s great revelation about the book of Job’s deep and transcendent psychological meaning - makes me wonder if prayer/ meditation could not be a tiny “death” to “inform God” - I love these talks so much - thank you
-
What an amazing deep, ritch and open dialogue of two brillant thinkers. Thank you so much for sharing your ideas, thougths and insights. So inspiring to go ever deeper into my spiritual practice experientially AND exploring the analytical Idealism philosophy intellectually. This integration is so much needed (with regard to the 'Meta-Crisis' as Daniel Schmachtenberger calls it). 🙏
-
Beautiful questions, beautiful answers. Thank you.

There is nothing more fundamental than what we can't avoid assuming , even when we investigate . Be it Mahāmudrā , Buddhism , or Analytic Idealism. The emptiness of logic becomes very clear in this discussion.

36:08 The very same Eye of Universe (The I) looking thru Alan Watts persōna is the very Eye of Mind at Large (The I) that looks thru Bernardo persōna. Great work Bernardo, keep on doing what you do!

Extraordinary interview! Bernardo Kastrup says true intuition has a certain "smell," an impersonal tone, non-acquiescent to our fantasies, beliefs, tendencies. It feels objective, external, given, unfabricated. What's the litmus test? What is the mechanism for discerning good smell from bad?
-
Wow this is fantastic thank you so much Andrew for hosting a great conversation!!
-
What a great deep talk!
