What is Consciousness? What is Its Purpose?

I was waiting for him to say "MR ANDER-son...."

Consciousness is not in brain. It is self awareness. The brain is just like a frequency tuner. As in TV or radio stations.

I don’t have words to express my gratitude for such a beautiful explanation, It will take me time to absorb the material but, ones you understand it’s a next step to awareness and self understanding At a time when humans are creating machines for mass destruction of mankind and aligning our race with the perished, this phenomenon is gold ♥️

I love the statement , "even though we don't know them, the answers to all the questions we will ever have already exist"

After long years of studies, all i know is that i know nothing.

"Let there be light" I believe this "light" is consciousness. The type that would exist in this realm of existence. The type that would make us capable to understand to a certain point, what 'love' and 'hatred' is in this dualistic reality (left, right, up, down, no bravery without danger, etc) and the type that would be able to obtain wisdom. "In Our image and likeness" Two persons (Adam and Eve) The joy of love is what existed before all things, in obviously deeper and stranger ways. But, joy of love nonetheless.

Consciousness is experiencing itself through us.

this is extremely well made! far beyond what you could ask for on this topic to be found for free on YouTube. Great work!

Tip => play it at 1.25 and it sounds normal + you will get smarter faster ;-D

When A Genuine sense of WONDER and CURIOSITY become extinguished, we become dedicated to seeking the approval of others, and we give up INDEPENDENT LOGICAL INQUIRY or "CREATIVITY".... our CONCIOUSNESS become CONDITIONED... we lost our INNER CHILD. :(

I love all this stuff, I love all you responders, I will drink a beer for all of us seekers, be happy, be kind to each other, and we will see what happens...

21.40 to 23.17 So true. As a life long learner, and a person who is always asking 'Why', I have become detached from seeking social approval and being judged by those around me, I really do not care what anyone thinks about me, I am what I am and I say how I feel. This liberation really gives one freedom in life, to live and critically think, like a child does. Incidentally I am a professional Kindergarten and primary school teacher, and believe me there is such a difference in children's inquiry at kindergarten level as opposed to P4, 5 and 6 (10, 11, 12 yr olds). This wonderful trait seems to become restrained from about 10 years old and occurs due to social conditioning of the perceived need to be liked and accepted by our peers. This is such a shame. I try to teach my students independent thinking, and just being oneself, and trusting ones instincts.

"We are the universe experiencing itself".

Consciousness is astounding! It’s so mysterious. I’m going through a spiritual awakening and I’m finding some very weird things happen in our reality that we’re completely unaware of until we really look.

This is some fucking good editing... Whoever does that now... keep that guy!

Collective consciousness driven by a shared awareness of this design, using our individual and collective intuition, will help us see beyond.

as a 13 yr old in 2020. this has got to be one of the greatest documentaries on consciousness ever. this video is well executed and conducted beautifully. can anyone share any other documentaries just like this one
